3 Best Canon DSLR Cameras Under 750 Dollars:
Rebel t5i
The Rebel t5i comes with an 18 megapixel sensor, Digic 5 processor, 9-point all cross-type AF system, and a fully articulating 3.0 inch LCD screen.
$599
Rebel t6i
Brand New-On pre-order (at this time), but significantly different from the t5i to warrant the extra money.
$749 - The t6i sells for $849
EOS SL1
Way below the spending threshold, but an interesting choice because it is a full-featured DSLR in a really small package.
$399
Canon Rebel t5i
The Rebel 5ti is so much better than the standard t5. It is a bigger investment, but well worth it because of the differences in features.
I did not include the Canon t5 in this article. The LCD is not a touch screen and does not rotate. It does not have an external jack for sound recording, only shoots ar 3 frames-per-second, and only has 1 cross-type of focusing point.

The Canon Rebel t5i sells for a lot less than 750 Dollars.Canon Rebel t6i and t6s
Conspirators will tell you that Canon and other manufacturers purposely hold back a few features from their entry-level DSLRs so that they don't cut into the sales of their pro DSLR cameras that cost thousands and thousands of dollars.
It should be hard to argue that point if you take a close look at the Canon t6 cameras. Both the t6i and t6s have the CMOS auto-focus III, which is almost as good as the dual-pixel technology found on the Canon EOS 70D and the 7D Mark II.
The 6ts, in particular performs and has a feature like it's expensive big brothers, the LCD information panel on top. The specs are very impressive on both of these versions:
- 24 megapixel CMOS APS-C sensor with Digic 6 processor
- Super high ISO capabilities of 12,800.
- 19-point cross-type focus points
- HD video in MP4 format
- 3-inch vari-angle touch screen LCD

You can pre-order a new Canon t6i for about $750 DollarsYou get really sophisticated DSLRs with both the Canon 6ti and 6ts cameras. Here is avide from dpreview that illustrates the differences between these two entry-level DSLRs.
Canon EOS SL1
Canon SL1 vs t5i Size ComaprisonAt the time of its release in March of 2013, it was the world's smallest digital SLR camera on the market. It is significantly smaller and lighter than the Canon t5i.
The Canon SL1 won a "GOLD" award from one of the granddaddies of all camera review sites, www.dpreview.com. In my opinion, there are two disadvantages of getting this camera. There is no articulating (rotating) LCD screen to rotate. It may be too small for those people who have exceptionally large hands.
A new Canon Rebel SL1 sells for about $399, quite a bit under 750 Dollars

The SL1 uses the 2nd version of the Hybrid AF focusing system and covers a large majority of the frame. It has continuous auto-focusing and subject tracking in movie mode.
You've got plenty of options-that's for sure. I can't give you the one best place to buy your next camera. Prices do fluctuate and we all have different shopping preferences too.
I've change my camera buying sources over the years, mostly because of the societal changes that have come along with the explosion of the Internet and on-line shopping.
