Re: Suggestions on body upgrade

Thanks! I'm more casual now a days, and budget budget budge, so I think I'll go for the SL1 and see how she treats me

Hey Folks,

I have a Canon 450D, still works perfect, but am thinking of moving up a step or two in that same family. I love the IQ of the camera, but the one thing I don't like, is auto ISO only 'autos' up to 800. Then 1600 is the max, but you have to select it. Would like auto iso to be a range, like up to 1600, or up to 3200 so I don't have to keep picking one or the other. I don't need the newest new, so was thinking of an older refurb/good used body. Which ones after the 450D would do that, and maybe were 'better' for some other reasons I'm not considering?

You'll notice a difference moving to the 18 MP sensor.

Autofocus starts to get really good from the T4i onwards.

The very latest Rebels are a big step up in a ton of ways.

The SL1 offers great bang for the buck, but personally I'd recommend getting a more capable (Rebel) first, then adding an SL1 as a second compact travel-type camera second.

Good luck in your quest,

R2
