Hi Folks, i currently have a Canon 400D and i am looking for some help on what would be my next step up?
All thoughts are welcome
All thoughts are welcome
What do you shoot?
What would you like to shoot?
Is low light performance a high priority?
Do you need loads of AF points?
What is your budget?
Why do you feel you need to make a step up?
What lenses do you have?
Have you budgeted for potentially needing new lenses?
Why is the rum gone?
NIKON
... there's always one isn't there!!!...
I've just bought a 6D ... fabulous in low light but full frame so might no be what you want!!
I agree on upgrading the lens to something faster (ie f/2.8). The question I always ask when I think about upgrading or adding new gear is, "what am I missing?" or "what do I need the new equipment to do?" That helps me to identify a short list, it also helps the good people on here know which direction to pint you in.
After looking at what you've said you like to shoot, be prepared for people to suggest the Canon 6D. That jumped straight into my mind, it is very good for low light as you get usable pictures at high ISO. The downside will be that because it is FF, you will need to replace the 18-55 (or 17-55 if you get one) and f2.8 lenses for FF don't come cheap.
He's only got one EFS hasn't he? And that's only the 18-55 (non IS as kitted in the 400d) which is about £50 worth!full frame would cost him a lot more as he would need new lenses too as the EF-S wouldnt fit.
