Canon EOS Rebel T6i vs Canon EOS Rebel T6s Camera Comparison

In 2016 Canon introduced us to a new line of the Rebel Series. There are now 3 levels of Rebel camera starting with the T6 which is their most basic budget friendly DSLR, the T6i which is now the mid entry level DSLR and the new T6s which is their top entry level body. This article will look at the Canon EOS Rebel T6i vs Canon EOS Rebel T6s comparison to help you decide which one is right for you.

The T6s is targeted towards users who want a smaller camera body, but want a more advanced camera body. Overall the cameras share many of the same core features such as autofocus, shutter speed range, etc. The T6s adds a top LCD screen and dual command wheels to the features of the T6i. The Top LCD is probably not as big of a deal as the dual command wheels in my opinion, especially if you find yourself shooting in manual exposure mode. Image quality from the two cameras should be identical since they both use the same image sensor and processor.

Physical Differences

As you can see here, the Exposure mode dial on the rebel T6s has been moved to the left of the built in flash to make room for the LCD info screen on the right:

In addition, the power switch has also moved the left of the flash, which is the same location as found on the 70/80D, 7DII, 6D and 5DIII/IV models. Looking at the rear of the camera you will notice the 4-way controller is surrounded by a knurled dial, which is the second command wheel:

The Rebel T6s also does not have the exposure compensation/AV button since that duty is handled by the secondary command wheel.
