Canon 650D vs Nikon D3200 - Image Comparison

Buy Canon 650D from Amazon

Few days ago we have posted Canon 650D vs Nikon D3200 specification comparison review, now Cameralabs tested both the camera and the result was pretty much same as expected, the canon 650D images show bit more detail compared to Nikon D3200 see jpeg image comparison of both the camera below,

Shot settings: The Canon Rebel T4i / EOS 650D was fitted with the EF-S 18-135mm f3.5-5.6 IS STM kit lens and the Nikon D3200 was fitted with the Nikkor 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 VR kit lens.

The third image show CA at edges but its not a problem of Canon 650D, the new 18-135mm STM kit lens suffers from chromatic aberration at the edge of the frame even at f8.

Conclusion from cameralabs

…Overall, it’s clear that the T4i / 650D is a better camera than the D3200, but there’s a price to pay for those additional features and superior performance. Not everyone, particularly first time DSLR buyers need those features and the D3200 remains a compelling option as an affordable first DSLR. It’s also important to note the closer rival to the T4i / 650D will be Nikon’s long-awaited successor to the D5100, and I’ll update this page when that’s launched.
