7d2 is in many cases sharp enough, but 6d is definitely sharper and less aberrations (generally speaking) I bought my 6d for candid portrait shooting with two lenses -- 100L and tamy 45 f1.8 VC htt ...

agree, the 17-55 also got smashed by higher mpxl

#1 - 50 f1.8 II with penta bokeh and bad wide open # 2 - I had the 20 f2.8 and it had mustache distortion

seems simple rationale: if tripod, or the new IBIS, and stopped down for landscapes, then the 14 if hand held, and wide open, for low light, and or shallow dof, then the 16 if both, then the 16 my ...

I own 7d2 and 6d. You’ll find 6d sharper and 1-2 stops better high iso that said, I prefer my T7i with gReat glass over my 7d2 iso 100-1000.  There is just something special about the new 24 mpxl ...

15 years trying ... both the 24 stm and the 50 stm are sharper than the 17-55 but without IS if you can't swing the 35 f2 IS, as I said, go with one or both of those https://www.the-digital-picture ...

your 18-55 at f3.5 is sharper

I had the old 35 f2.0 years ago. It has terrible bokeh (penta) and the focus is slow and noisy night and day... https://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/ISO-12233-Sample-Crops.aspx?Lens=253&Came ...

yes it's the f2.0 IS model then get the 24 f2.8 STM and/or 50 f1.8 STM

+1

your 18-55 f3.5 version is a great lens - it gets a whooping rating of 4 at photozone.de. avoid sigma for focus issues the 35 f2 IS is one of the best lenses for crop.  Use it for low light and ...

don't go there

absolutely, in sharpness, in bokeh, and 4 stop IS

Dragging the shutter without a pod is a big plus

Wait for 7d3

the op buys old stuff the T7i is better than the ops 5d in almost everyway the 1d4 is too heavy - a 7d2 fits the bill T7i is light in weight and in dollars.  It has the same IQ as 80d.  Only thing ...

not up to todays quality and way overpriced hmm, I had 2 of these, though nice at 15-23 mm, f5.6 not bright at long end the 18-55 f3.5 stm gets a whooping rating of 4 at photozone - lives up to ...

get 35 f2 IS - look no further

40d was loved and a charm T7i is exponentially better and lighter and only $699 op doesn't list birding lenses, so how serious and demanding is the birding goal...
