Hi all,
I have been a proud owner of a Canon 7D MK1 and 5D MKIII for a few years now and as my Kitbag is getting extremely heavy for holidays, I am looking at getting a Mirrorless to save having to rely on my DSLR bodies. So the time has come to start looking at Mirrorless, which is completely new to me. Now ideally the mirrorless less will be used as my 2nd camera, as still love using my 5D MKIII for Portraits & Landscapes, plus ringside photography at local wrestling and band photos once they start up playing again.
So with the above in mind, I will mainly be using the mirrorless for wildlife, Macro, possibly landscape if I decide to leave the 5D at home when travelling abroad. The only thing really that I require is to have something with similar image quality to my Canon 7D & something that can use a Metabones adapter with AF support, so that I can possibly use my current 50mm either 1.8 / 1.4, 100mm 2.8L with Teleconverter & 70-200 2.8L with Teleconverter.
In regards to budget I would say anything up to about £800, I am happy for it to have a crop sensor as it will eventually be replacing my 7D. I don’t need anything majorly fancy and expensive, just need something that works well with my current glass.
If anyone cold mention some models, so I can start to research them and create a shortlist, it would be much appreciated
Many thanks
