Re: Recommendations - Photography student

I have three Canon T7i (800D) cameras. I'm really happy with them; that's why I bought so many of them to use with my different lenses. I bought two of them recently for $505 (USD) each on Ebay. They were new. I don't know much about the Canon T8i (850D) camera except from what I read. I don't know anyone on this forum that is using a Canon T8i (850D) camera.

The advantages of the Canon T8i (850D) camera are:

1) Better JPEGs with the more advanced image processor

2) Better 4K video

3) A little faster burst: 7.5 frames per second instead of 6.

4) A built-in intervalometer in which the photographer can capture time lapse sequences. That seems neat.

5) A little better battery life. That's not that important as a person can always buy another battery.

So, it's up to her whether those extras above are worth the additional cost.

Check out more reviews on the internet.

Here is a recent photo that I took with my Canon T7i (800D) camera in a somewhat dark environment.  That ISO5000 image came out pretty good.
