Good morning all, I used to be rather in to my (amateur) photography a few years ago, owning a 400D, then upgrading to a 40D with a good selection of lenses (Canon 10-22mm was a favorite at the time) and experimenting with reverse lenses for extreme macro before selling most of my kit due to several reasons and living my my trusty G12 ever since.
I'm now looking to acquire a new camera for work and home reasons, and having an 11 month old has made me want something that can produce decent results without a flash all the time inside as well. I'm not looking to spend a fortune and something a little lighter than a full professional body would be nice to make it a bit more user friendly too (for wife etc who don't use SLR's).
Currently I'm thinking about something like a 60D (although this is a heavy option if the same as my old 40D) and nifty 50, I never owned one but always remembered the great reviews, perhaps something like a 600D with the 50mm 1.8 would be a better combo- I'm just after some opinions please!
I still have a couple of old lenses and bits and I do know the ins and outs of living with an SLR so I'm not looking to be persuaded to buy a compact instead before that starts!
Many thanks,
TC
