Hi Stuart, Excellent, that pretty much sums up my thoughts. Video is a bonus, definately not something that's real requirement so I don't care about the focusing (and anyway, that seems better than the 60D anyway). I hadn't considered the "two types of body" annoyance till you mentioned it but...

Heh, interesting. Being down in Folkestone it's never been an option for me but we do use prime a lot - next day is always fine unless they dispatch with HDNL who pretty much always fail to deliver (no great loss, it's another free month of prime and so far I've got 40 quids worth of amazon...

Interested that you say "AF for stills is as good"... are you implying it's not as good for moving subjects? From what I've read it's pretty much identical as the 60d as it shares the focusing setup - in your experience is that not the case? I'm definately looking for something better than my...

As much as I'd like a 7D, I can't justify that. 700 quid is a lot more than the 400 quid it would cost me for the 650d (once I've got 50 quid cashback, and used the amazon vouchers I've got). I'm increasingly thinking a 650d for now, and get my Son using the 400d. Then look for a second hand 7d...

Hi, I've been lurking here for a while and finally signed up :) I'm pondering an upgrade - nothing too special or expensive unfortunately. Currently got a 400d which is ok but more and more often my son (11) is wanting to use that so I'm pondering an upgrade for myself, and then give him...
