Posted by Uzi- I absolutely love my XSI its been flawless since the day I bought it. I'm going to sell it for a 7D but that's only because I want faster AF tracking and Fps which is far from an issue with night time photos. I've been very happy with exposures in the 7-8 minute range from it. It would be hard to beat as a first DSLR for way under $900. Although for $900 you could pick up a T2i and have plenty of camera to grow into. |
Posted by wopke Those lenses arent cheap. I was thinking on buying a 50mm first. Do those L series lenses work on my 350D? I though they didn't. That full frame bodys needed other lenses then the 1.6 frames or you'll get vigneting? |
Posted by wopke hmm ok, now how about this: I found a second hands 5D with 28-70mm lens for 1500 euros. When I sell both my lenses for 250 each, I will have a used 5D with fullframe lens for 1000 euros. sounds good? |
Posted by Washu I can't say if that is a good price or not, but you are going to lose a lot of wide range by going that route. You need something like the 16-35 on a full frame to replace your 10-20. Unless you've got the cash to upgrade both I'd keep the range if I was in your shoes. |
Posted by Neptune After nearly 5 successful years of shooting with my Rebel XT I have decided to upgrade to a "big girl" camera and leave the toy behind. I have $1,200-$1,500 to spend. My choices now are between the 7D, 50D, and 60D. Which should I get? |
Posted by Byberrian Fanman I take it you've been shooting it with this thing? http://images.bido..._6-II-Lens_bid.JPG |

Posted by Washu As I said in another thread, I own a 7D, but if you shooting is mostly UE then get a 50D/60D and save more for better glass. The 7D is a beast, but most of it's features over the XXD line are not a huge benefit to UE photography. Between the 50D/60D I'd say unless you want to take movies or shoot extreme ISO regularly then go for the 50D just because it's probably cheaper right now. The biggest advantage of the 60D is that's lighter. I wouldn't worry about the more plastic body, your XT survived 5 years, the 60D will too. |
Posted by Neptune I will be using this camera for UE as well as *sigh* weddings. I have been getting a lot of inquiries lately about doing weddings, and I want to take up the offers. I can't do that with my current setup. I was also thinking about maybe a used 5D. Thoughts on that? |
