Re: replacement for 300D

Thanks a lot all,

I'll indeed visit a camera shop (the only in the country, apparently) and see what they have. It's quite possible they don't have the 70D, but I'll have a look at the previous model if they have it.

The autofocus: it's probably something with the sensor. In the past it only happened in fog or otherwise confusing light, but now it happens 2 times out of 5, with all lenses in perfect conditions.

I'm wondering also how the image quality differs to the 300D. With the 300D I knew I could not get decent photos in poor light, but otherwise the images were fine. What followed afterwards (yes, I know it's 10 years ago) were bigger and bigger sensors and poorer quality photos.

Wow, you are so optimistic! (not) No the Rebel line does not have bigger image sensors than the Drebel that you have and the IQ is far superior to yours too! ISO 1600 on your slr is more like ISO 12800 on modern slrs.

But the question is do your really need an slr now or will the G1 X mark II or G7 X do the job?
