Re: Buy now a 760D or wait for the upcoming model?

I have a 760D, and had a 450D, as well as a 600D

I wholeheartedly recommend the 760D. It is a big upgrade. The AF system, the sensor, it's all a lot better.

I also have a 70D, and to be honest I'm finding I prefer the 760D, even though it's lower ranked!

The 760D won't be replaced for a long time.

Just get one.

Or you could get the 750D if you don't care about the top screen. I like the top screen...

I also recommend the 18-135 STM lens. Or alternatively the 15-85.

If you need the reach then you can get the 55-250 for less than $100. That is a truly bargain lens.
