Canon's most affordable DSLR, a basic but capable entry point for beginners.
The Canon EOS 2000D, known as the Rebel T7 in North America, is Canon's entry-level DSLR launched in 2018. It uses a 24.1MP APS-C CMOS sensor with the Canon EF-S mount. Positioned as the cheapest way into the Canon DSLR ecosystem, it was primarily marketed at students and first-time camera buyers.
Features are deliberately basic with 9-point autofocus using one cross-type point, 3fps burst shooting, 1080p video without 4K, and a fixed 3-inch rear screen with no articulation or touch capability. The optical viewfinder covers 95 percent of the frame. Wi-Fi and NFC are included for phone connectivity.
The 2000D is beloved for its simplicity and image quality relative to its price. The 24MP sensor produces good results in decent light. It is criticised for its sparse autofocus system, lack of video features, and plasticky build. Battery life is excellent at around 500 shots per charge.
Extremely common used. Check shutter count which is rated for 100,000 actuations, test all autofocus points, and verify the rear screen has no dead pixels. The 250D is a worthwhile step up with a flip screen and 4K video.
