Hi, I'm new to the forms, and photography in general. I currently have Canon Rebel T2i with two lenses. I'm pretty sure these are the focus lengths: 0.25/0.8ft 1.5/4.9ft. It's a great camera, and has done just about everything that I could ask for, but I wan't to upgrade. I only started taking photography seriously about 8 months ago.
Budget: A tight $650 :-(
Camera:
I have never used a camera that is not Canon. I don't really trust the other brands, but I'm all open to suggestions. I also have a tripod, and if I got a new camera, I don't know if it would also work. My camera has a screw in thing at the bottom, that allows it to connect to the stand. I know the lenses are more important, but I would like a new camera. I want to take time lapse photos (though defiantly not a must). I just feel like I need a more modern camera, rather than one from 2010 (I know, how millennial of me wanting everything new).
Lenses:
I have no clue what to look for, please help. In order of importance of what I'm looking for:
-Good for Nature Photography
-Good for taking picture of animals/pets (really the same as above)
-Astrophotography (I can really only do it once or twice a year, because I live in the city, and only go away once or twice a year, don't know if it's worth it).
-Macro Photography (haven't done it yet, but want to try it).
What I'm really looking for is something that has a low aperture (my phone's can go lower than my camera's, that's a problem). Also, something that has a really low and high ISO range.
Final Thoughts/Questions:
I'm new to photography, I want, I will become better, and I really just need help on this. Thanks
