Lenses or body

Almost me

You write >If this were you, what way would you go?<

It's almost me, in that I have a Ti1 / same camera as yours, except my camera is broken, so I need a new body if I want to keep shooting pictures with a D-SLR.

And I don't have as many lenses. If I need a 120-400, I borrow one from my friend Bob.

MY plan includes a major expansion into video, and for several months my intention was to buy a 70D. I've now moved that to a plan to buy an 80D, with the new 18-135 kit lens.

Currently I use a clients video camera for web livecasts, and the 80D would allow me to produce other shows, without having to borrow the client's camera.

Since my T1i is dead, I predict yours might die soon too, so the advantages of a new body might be important.
