Canon camera recommendations?
I really want to upgrade from my P&S camera and want to get a Canon because I’ve heard they are very good. Although I don’t have much experience with Canon at all so don’t know that much.
Can someone recommend a good Canon Camera?
I really like taking pictures of animals far away (such as at the zoo), macro shots, landscapes ect. A camera with good lenses. =]
People have recommended these:
Canon EOS 350D DIGITAL
Canon Rebel EOS XTi or XSi
Canon EOS-1D Mark III
Out of all of these which one has the best quality?
If you answer please tell me why the camera you chose is good. =)
It doesn’t matter so much that you haven’t had experience with Canon, what matters is how much experience you’ve had with any SLR camera. If you’re comfortable with shooting in M or the creative modes like Av and Tv, you might want to consider one of the XXD cameras such as the 40D.
As for which has the best quality, a 350D with a 70-200mm f/2.8L IS is going to have much better quality than the 1DmkIII with a 55-200mm f/4.5-5.6 USM II. http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/notcamera.htm For the most part, you’ll get much better quality with high quality lenses. With Canon, these are the L series lenses, though there are a few non L series lens that are equally high quality (such as the 100mm f/2.8 macro, 50mm f/1.4, 50mm f/1.8, 85mm f/1.8).
I’ve shoot Canon for almost a decade now. When I started, Nikon was lagging behind. Now Nikon has caught up and is very good. (In fact, I think they are a little ahead of Canon now.) You might want to consider Nikon as well.
However, to get started in the Canon system, I’d recommend either the Digital Rebel XSi or XS. The XS is kind of a hybrid XTi and XSi, but at a lower cost. The XT and XTi are good cameras as well, but you’ll probably want the newer technology.
