Updrade a 550D to ...? Advice needed please

[tigglestiger]

Hi all,

This is my first post so please be kind .

I purchased my first Canon 550D in December last year, it was a complete upgrade from my Nikon D40...

I am a keen wildlife photographer and have purchased two lenses the 100-400mm L and 70-200mm F4L, this has taken my pictures to another level , i now feel that i need to upgrade the body.

From what i have read online i am considering getting a 50D secondhand - is it worth it swapping from my 550D? I dont use the video mode...

Not looking to spend much more than £500 ish.. so some ideas would be great.

Thanks

A used 60D would seem to be the answer to your question. I went the same route- a T2i (550D) to 60D. It's not a night & day difference, but there are little things that you might appreciate (beefier grip, quicker access to key settings via the top screen among other things)
