paulus 26 Posted April 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 7D? cheers, so now i have 5 to consider Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OldTrapCollector 377 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 I am not sure that those Canons will allow you take fuzzy pics if you use the auto function so I reckon you'd be best using manual and staying just a touch off crisp with your focussing to be true to your game Paul Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Panna 68 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) Depends on your priorities. If a turning screen, a better ISO, a faster FPS, a faster and more responsive autofocus, a video recording capebility is important for you... and if you would buy it new or second hand. I had (and still in the family) the 60D, I can tell you about it. Also a question of what you have now, what lenses you have, why you want to upgrade and how much money you will still have for more/better lenses?

J Darcy 5,871 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 7D is what I use. I have two. IMO there is NO better camera for action hunting shots. To get them that little bit blurred you can always smear vaseline on the lens. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PINNACLE 2,297 Posted April 11, 2014 Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 Another vote for the 7D. £500 for a good second hand one, £650 from HK or just under £1k in UK. There is talk of a MKii coming out soon but that has been talk for years now and it will no doubt be twice as much. I have had a 500D, 600D, 40D and borrowed a 60D and the 7D is superior to all of them in handling, fps and auto-focus. Flippy screens are only there to break and are only useful for macro and video IMO. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
