I mentioned in a previous thread how I am getting a new camera at the end of the month after selling all my equipment just over a year ago.
I was initially set on buying a canon 70D but after reading reviews and watching videos on t'internet I then started thinking about the nikon D7100 followed by the Sony A77ii
I've even started looking at FF. Either Sony a7 or nikon D600/610
As I have no equipment and I'm not upgrading, this is starting to stress me out a bit trying to choose a brand to best suit my needs.
I thought spending my money was supposed to easy part. But given the amount I'm about to spend on one of these cameras I really want to make sure I've picked the right one.
I have had a look at both the nikon d7100 and canon 70d in shop and both feel good in the hand. The Sony a77ii has 12fps and a good AF system plus I've owned sony cameras in the past so and liked them but they were entry level cameras
I primarily want to take pictures of the kids playing and also sports and wildlife. But I want to try a bit of everything. Landscapes interest me as well as macro and portraits. So I think either of the first three cameras I mentioned will be fine but I just find it so hard to pick which brand to buy into.
Anyone else had this problem or were you dead certain you knew what you wanted before you started?
