Hi All,
I'm looking to upgrade from my 20D. I decided I wanted to upgrade after realizing that my 20D wasn't great at low light/high ISO shots. I am a recreational photographer, take photos of my kids, friends, family, travel, sporting events etc - mostly for fun, do some printing, usually 4x6 or 5x7, occasionally 16x24 - though would consider larger sizes for home decoration. I want to be able to shoot in low light and indoors without a flash.
I already own the Canon 50 f1.2L and 24-105 f4L - and on the 20D the 50 1.2L is too tight for indoor shots. So I figured I should either get a FF body and use the lenses I already own, or a 7D + 24,28,or 35mm fast lens.
So as I see it my options are:
7D + 35 f2 (approx $2000 total)
7D + 35 1.4 (approx $3000 total)
5D2 ($2150 total)
5D3 ($3500 total)
I could swing any of the options financially - but would only want to spend the extra $$ on the 5D3 if it was really going to make a difference for my needs.
Thanks!
