I’ll be honest: in recent years, I haven’t owned a camera. When I got my iPhone (darling, I love you!) about five years ago (at Best Buy, natch), all the buzz was about the great built-in camera and what fantastic pictures it took. Heck, the advent of the cell-phone camera has led to the ubiquity of selfies (ugh) and the rise of Instagram. Just think back to the dark days of 2006, when you couldn’t take a picture of everything you ate before you ate it.
So, anyway, when my last camera stopped working, I wondered, do I even need a “real” camera? The jury was out for a while but I’ve lately come to the conclusion that yes, I do. Even a great cell phone camera doesn’t have the features and clarity of a proper camera. Now, just in time for the holidays, Best Buy is offering the Canon EOS Rebel T5i, one of the best-selling digital single-lens reflex cameras (or DSLRs), with a savings of $150. This great deal is available from 12/7 to 12/20.
The Canon EOS Rebel T5i is a great choice for photographers like me, who have neophyte skills but want impressive, professional looking results. It offers the following cutting-edge features:
- Hollywood caliber full HD video;
- Continuous autofocus while taking HD video;
- An 18.0-megapixel CMOS sensor and a DIGIC 5 image processor for vivid, crystal-clear images (as usual I do not know what this means but it sounds awesome);
- A 3″ vari-angle touch screen that simplifies navigation (I do know what this means because I know what “simplify” means, and I approve).
Just imagine capturing all your Christmas 2014 memories (including, yes, the Christmas feast) for posterity, and then sharing the dazzling results with friends and family on social media. Down with mediocre cell-phone photos and video – visit bestbuy.com today to check out a real camera at a reasonable price! Happy holidays!

I have a really nice little Canon point-and-click, but I think it’s time to upgrade to something like this 🙂
Canons are wonderful! If I hadn’t of just gotten a new camera in the summer I would be heading to grab one of these!
I love my DSLR. I tend to take more photos with my phone since it’s always within reach, but it can’t beat the power of my actual camera. 🙂
I really think this would make a lovely present, what a great camera!
LOVE best buy! And as a matter of fact this cannon is on my Christmas list!
I’m so ready for a new camera. It has to have WiFi and that Nikon is looking good!
I am sooo putting a camera on my good girl list!
So many great options to choose from. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
I have a Canon Rebel T3i and I love it! Best Buy is always the first place I go for tech.
I have the t2i and I’m thinking I need to upgrade. I wonder if this one has wifi.
I have had Canons all my life and I love them! This is a great camera.
I tested this camera and LOVED it. Such a great deal going on now too.
I NEED this!! Seriously, I’m not sure if I was THAT good this year but if Santa is reading this but I promise I’ll be even better next year!
My husband just upgraded to this camera. He loves it! It would be awesome for anyone!
Got to love Best Buy, they have such a great camera selection!
The Canon rebel is a rock star of a camera. I am currently supported looking for a DSLR. I think I’ve narrowed it down to this Canon one and a Nikon version of similar so for sure it’s on my list this year.
That new canon camera is like calling for me to use it lol.
I have a Canon T3i that I received last year just before Christmas. I wish I could upgrade to this T5i. I could really use that Wifi feature.
I am loving all of the camera deals at Best Buy this holiday season. It’s very temping!
I’m buying a new Canon camera very soon. I can’t wait!!
