I've been considering a new camera. Currently I have an old (circa 2009) Canon T1i with 2 lenses a 70-300 L and a 24-105 L (v1). I'm very much an amateur and use my camera for a wide range of subjects: my children, landscapes, Formula 1 races, vacation pics, etc. I also have an old Canon HV20 camcorder that has started acting up lately and for me I really need something that does both stills and video well. It would be perfect if I have one camera that works well for both as I need that flexibility. The T1i video function is terrible.
Carrying my T1i with a battery grip and with the 70-300 L never bothers me much so I"m not necessarily concerned with weight or size. I also don't have much of a preference between FF or crop.
IF you were in my shoes, which direction would you go? Upgrade to an 80D, 7D II, M50 with lens adapter? Sell it all and switch to Sony, Nikon, Panasonic, Fuji? Wait and hope the 90D is released in the next 2-3 months (probably not likely though). I do think the 80D would be a better option for me than the 7D as I can see the benefits of the tilt/flip and touchscreen, especially with video.
Question for the folks here, which direction would you go were you me? My budget is around $1200-$1500 tops.
