I wonder how the 7d mark ii is in low light though.  I do use a flash though.

I currently have a Canon 6D, SL1, 50mm 1.8 ii, Tamron 28-75mm 2.8, canon 24mm 2.8, Canon 70-210 F3.5-4.5 (old school yes), tamron 18-200mm, godox flash and tripod.  I like to shoot portraits and ...

Interesting... without reading between the lines this would mean big things for Sony cameras.  I'm sure they aren't that stupid though.  Their upper end cameras and lenses, I'm sure are making ...

I know there are tons of rumors and what if posts out there.  Specifically, what I'm concerned about is the viability of the EF lens system.  I just upgraded to a 6D and now I'm worried about ...

wide angle maybe canon 10-18 or maybe canon 10-22. For walk around the sigma 17-50 2.8 OS was nice.  For crop body, it's basically what a 24-70 would be for full frame.  The 17-50 on crop wouldn't ...

I have the sigma 17-50 and a Tamron 18-200.  I wouldn’t sell the 17-50 for a super zoom. The super zoom is a good lens for travel and casual use. However the 17-50 has better image quality and is ...

I finally upgraded from an SL1 to a Canon 6D.  I got it used only for $700 with only a few thousand shots on it.  Love it!!!

whoa those two things are going to be awesome to learn.  Thanks!!

You're right.  I'm working on new lenses.

Youre right. I don’t have it yet so it’s just fun to think out loud about it with all of the anticipation.

I’ll probably order the 85mm 1.8 soon. I would like a nice walk around zoom though like I used my sigma 17-50 2.8 for. The 24-70s are all expensive for what I want right now. I was interested in ...

I just bought a used Canon 6D and will be getting it tonight.  Do you have any tips or advice coming from crop (SL1)?  I'm mostly wondering how different the aperture/depth of field is.  Also, ISO ...

that’s a good point. I think I’m down to getting a 70D or 80D. I like 80D but could use some cash to go towards lenses.

Lots of good info guys. Thanks. Truthfully I’m still on the fence.

I’ve never considered those old 1ds bodies. I’m intrigued some. I am worried about their age. Even if shutter count is low, won’t age be some risk? I know they were built to be tanks though.

I was actually curious about the whole high ISO performance vs. flash.  I shot a birthday party a few weekends ago and used bounce flash.  I turned off flash, set low ISO and around a 1/250 ...

So would you suggest a 6D? Or try to wait for at least a 5D Mark iii. I feel like the wedding internet experts always assume you got to have the best stuff or else. My wife’s friend in Louisiana ...

I currently have an SL1.  I'm looking to upgrade and stay with canon crop because full frame is out of reach for me right now, well with lenses and all it is.  I shoot mostly portraits, landscape ...

That would be ideal, but assume I wasn’t going to. Then what? Exploring option as if I’m not saving up.

I know that the 80D would be the ideal upgrade, but I would like to not spend that much because there are still several lenses I want. Is the 70D still a viable option coming from an SL1? I can ...
