Hunter's comment

Canon renewed a few months ago a catalog of SLR cameras for beginners. Within this range, the Canon EOS 2000D is the top model, staying the Canon EOS 4000D as the entry model. The Canon EOS 2000D is a simple camera, without much pretension. Seeks to seduce users who want to go a step beyond the compact, but without complicating. And, everything said, without spending a fortune. One of those cameras that attracts anyone looking to get started in SLR photography.

It is equipped with a new CMOS sensor of 24.1 megapixels. It has the DIGIC 4+ processor and a 9-point autofocus system. It is capable of recording video with Full HD resolution. And it is equipped with WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity. All with a price of 530 euros, EF-S 18-55mm IS II lens included. I have had the opportunity to try it for a few days and I tell you what I think.

DESIGN AND HANDLING
The Canon EOS 2000D follows the same design as the vast majority of the company's SLR cameras. We have a hard plastic body, which makes the camera quite light. Its dimensions are 129 x 101.3 x 77.6 mm, with a weight of 475 grams (body only).
In the area of ​​the handle has the usual rough finish, which is repeated in the back, where we support the big toe. This arrangement, once again, allows a good grip of the machine.

The upper left zone has no button. On the opposite side we have all the controls of the camera. The main one, as is logical, is the mode wheel. In its base we found a small "switch" to turn the camera off and on.
If we continue forward we have a small button to activate the flash, the only control wheel of the camera and the shutter button.

The back is dominated by the 3-inch screen. On your right is the typical crosshead with some options (the wheel is left for high-end models). We also have the exposure compensation, menu, display and photo display buttons. In addition to the Q button to configure the trigger parameters, especially important in this model.
Next to the viewer we have a button marked in red that will allow us to change to Live View mode. This model does not have dedicated button to start video recording.

The screen is simple. It is not tactile. It has a size of 3 inches and is fixed, we can not remove it to place it in the angle we want. This limits a lot (if not almost impossible) the use of the Canon EOS 2000D as a YouTubers camera.
It has a resolution of 920,000 pixels, which is below other higher-end models. It offers a seven-level brightness adjustment and 100% Live View coverage. It does not offer the guidance system that we saw in, for example, the Canon EOS 200D. A pity, because it was very useful for beginners.

The viewfinder is a penta-mirror type. It has a coverage of 95% and a dioptric correction between -2.5 and +0.5 m-1 diopter.
Although the camera is comfortable, I have missed a greater number of controls. Maybe it's because I'm used to higher-end models and shoot in manual. But I miss a second wheel a lot, since setting several parameters when shooting in manual becomes quite tedious.

In manual mode, to change between speed and opening, press the Q button to modify the aperture. A button that is not accessible at all if we have our eye on the viewfinder.

It is also true that the Canon EOS 2000D is a camera for an inexperienced audience. A public that, generally, will not use the completely manual mode. If we use one of the semiautomatic mode, the operation of the camera is simpler and more natural.

FOCUS AND TRIGGER
The Canon EOS 2000D is not equipped with Canon's Dual Pixel CMOS AF focusing system. It has a much more modest approach system, with only 9 points grouped in the center. This will force us to use the reframing technique if we want to focus on elements located on the sides.
Being an SLR camera, we can use any EF / EF-S lens. This means that we have a large selection of objectives at our disposal. Of course, the higher the goal, the better quality our photos will be.

Canon has decided to keep the DIGIC 4+ processor that we found in the Canon EOS 1300D. It's an old processor, but that may be enough for the most basic range.
Proof of this is its burst shot, with a maximum of 3 fps. In addition, the approach via Live View is somewhat slow, being very limited by the absence of a touch screen.

IMAGE QUALITY
Although the image processor is the same as the cameras used a few years ago, we do have an improvement in the sensor. The Canon EOS 2000D has a CMOS sensor of 24.1 megapixels, compared to 18 megapixels of which we could consider its predecessor.
The image quality, in general, is pretty good In conditions of good light or little contrast will get very good results. When the scene gets a little complicated, you begin to notice their shortcomings. The dynamic range reached by the camera is not very wide, although this can be fixed in the postprocessor. Therefore it is convenient to make sure that we are shooting in RAW mode. In low light the Canon EOS 2000D suffers a lot. We must bear in mind that it offers a maximum ISO of 6400. A maximum ISO that, in addition, if we decide to use it, it will put noise in the image. I have tested the camera with the kit lenses, 18-55 and 18-135 mm. This problem will be less if we use a brighter objective, but we must take it into account. However, we return to the same as before. It is a camera aimed at a beginner audience. An audience that seeks to buy their first SLR camera and practice. With this in mind, the photographic quality of the sensor is quite high. With good conditions we will get sharp photos, with a balanced white balance and good color reproduction. Finally, the Canon EOS 2000D is capable of recording video with 1080p resolution at 30 fps. It remains like this the Full HD video at 60 fps that we do have in superior models. CONNECTIVITY AND AUTONOMY Despite being one of Canon's most economical SLR models, the EOS 2000D has WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity with NFC. your older brothers, we can connect it to the mobile phone through the Canon Camera Connect application, available for both Android and iPhone. With this application we can review the images we have in the camera and download them directly to the smartphone. Perfect for those trips where we want to quickly share the photos on our social networks. We can also use the mobile as a remote trigger with direct vision. From the mobile we can configure the most common parameters, such as ISO, speed or aperture. Also others like the white balance or the system of approach. In short, virtually any parameter that we can configure in the camera. As for the battery, the manufacturer marks a range of 500 shots. During the test I used it for my photo sessions and I did not have to charge the battery even once.CONCLUSIONS AND PRECIOLA Canon EOS 2000D is a basic camera, ideal for those who want to start in the world of photography beyond the smartphone It offers a correct performance in appropriate conditions, but very fair when the scene gets a little complicated. It has an easy handling, although incomplete when we look for something more. Therefore, I reiterate that it is a camera for beginners. With this in mind, I've missed the assistance system I've seen in other models. It is true that this camera has a brief explanation of the functions within the menu, but it is not as good as other more expensive models. And this is precisely one of its key features: the price. The Canon EOS 2000D is priced at 530 euros, with the EF-S 18-55mm IS II lens included. It thus becomes an affordable camera, with a lower price than some high-end compact in the market.
