Re: 1200D (T5) or 100D (SL1)

I spent on my Canon equipment about 950 EUR for

100D / SL1

50mm f1.8 II

24mm f2.8 STM

18-55mm STM

55-250mm STM

Only the 50mm lens was kinda used and bought in Amazon Warehousedeals and the 18-55 in a forum from a kit buyer of a 700D who didn't want the lens but there are only a few EUR difference for this very cheap lenses to the new-prices so no big deal, rest I bought in new condition.

Can not do this with Fuji, Nikon or Sony? (no 3rd patty lenses please). I didn't find any satisfactory combination with the other manufacturer.

You can not say that any of these lenses has major weaknesses. They are considered as very good to almost L class.

So buying a Rebel is cheap and you get acceptable quality. What is the super Sony sensor worth if I have blurry spots and blurry corners... 24mp can not be resolved by cheap lenses either.
