    Thanks that's really helpful and in-depth. I thought that might have been the case with the nikon version not having the AF/MF switch, I imagine buying a smart adapter might work ok but I didn't want to spend much to be honest. Unfortunately I missed out on two deals for the canon versions the...

    Just wondering if you guys can help with some info? I'm looking at older sigma EX lenses (mk1 and mk2 I think) Only the 12-24mm above are for full frame is that right?. Seems 10-20mm's are only for ASP-C at least in this generation of sigmas.. And.. does anyone know if you can manual focus on...

    Good to know! Pound for pound it's the best deal secondhand I've seen. It's not worth me spending hundreds at this point on a wide angle as I'm just messing around, It would be good to take up to the peak District or for some urban shots etc.

    Cool I'll check that out.. I have seen the sony smart adapters but I've only got dumb ones m42 (x2), EF and FD currently. I did see some great deals on A mount lenses secondhand. Also it seems sigma have the best or at least on my budget best wide angles like the 12-24 you nentioned. missed out...

    Upgrade advice

    I was thinking about one 24mm lens and something like a 70-90mm I'd be happy with that selection with what I already have. It might just make sense getting only the best + fastest F1 (ish) 24mm I can afford for now until my wallet has recovered. Yes I did see some vintage super wide angles, not...

    I'm really happy with it! Massive upgrade over the trusty 600D. As you say isn't impressive for burst shots it's only just faster than my old camera but that was never essential really. So far I've purchased the helios 44M, carl zeiss jenna tessar 50mm (going to convert it to macro with macro...

    Currently waiting for the BJS V canelo fight so it's a bit late ATM :). I finally have the conclusion to my journey now!!! I very nearly purchased the sony a6400 with kit lens and almost purchased the fuji X-T30 also with kit lens! it was going to be quite expensive at £750-800 from efinity...

    Didn't mean to diss or say panny's aren't good.. just wrongly or rightly going by what people say generally about micro 4/3rds aren't the best for still images, I've never had a mirrorless so I'm for sure no expert. I probably do more research than the average guy because I geek out in that way...

    I did look at them and the g100 too. I think it's obviously subjective but a lot of the Panasonic's seem to be video focused and are not always as good at stills.. it's really hard getting everything in one package I understand that I'm almost asking the impossible.. the deal mav just posted on...

    Wow nice find. Just had a look, saw it was an American site but is the UK section of it and it does say including import tax and delivery!!!

    I think the EM1 mk2 is worthy after looking into it! . So currently the a6100 and em-1 mk2 are leading the race. Now looking into the fujis. Cheers

    Upgrade advice

    I did look at the 250D.. If i remember correctly the downside is when shooting 4K just like the eos M50 it's not in D.P autofocus only contrast autofocus, so the 4K isn't great unless your doing manual focus I hear (which is what I'm dealing with using my 600D although currently at 1080p). The...

    I'll check it out! I think my thoughts have been more based towards canon and sony to begin with due to the reports of having the best A.F, but I am open minded

    Upgrade advice

    Currently I have the 18-55mm kit and some old sigma 200mm zoom lens so I'm not worried about losing out on lenses. I was going to get the nifty fifty recently but then decided I'd rather upgrade first as I'll either keep the 600D as backup/ for stills or sell it going towards the new camera.

    Upgrade advice

    I don't want to get into the whole 1080p-4k debate as it's endless with valid points on both sides, but as I intend to keep the camera for many years of use it must have decent 4K video. I do have a powerful P.C and gpu - RTX 2080 and have been doing 4K edits (with 1080p upscaled from my 600D)...
