I shoot mostly birds (with the 100-400 II) and closeups of bugs (right, with the 100L, but I also have the MPE65). Those are all FF lenses. I'm throwing away more than 60% of the image. On the other hand, I like the pixel density of the 7D2, and its burst speed. So, should I buy a 6D or 5D3 or 5D4? Or just stick to the 7D2? Firstly, how can anyone say what is right for you? That aside, if you want a full-frame camera you obviously cannot stick with your 7D. If you have EF-S lenses and want to save money you stick with the 7D; those lenses will not fit the 5D/6D. The 7D is a good camera, used by plenty of pros. If you're getting good results with it (and you definitely should be) and you don't care about the smaller sensor, stick with it. I have a 6D and 5D Mark III and a 5D Mark IV. Sometimes I want a lighter camera and I use the 6D. Often I use a tripod and I am more likely to grab the 5D. It's quite hefty with the battery grip installed. And recently I bought an M5 with the 18-150 and the 28mm macro. It's an incredible camera at its size point. https://www.flickr.com/photos/primeval/33826784322/ Thanks to all who responded. I agree with everything you guys said. I'm quite happy with the 7D2. But I have some spare cash in the bank and was thinking how I might spend it. From what I can see, FF is not going to give me much benefit. But hey, maybe I was overlooking something. So I thought I would see if I could raise some ideas. But your responses confirm that I should keep the money and stick with what I have. It might not have been so. A few years ago I was shooting macro with a Canon 70-300mm zoom and a 500D closeup lens. I was getting darn good results with it too. But I had some cash and decided to get the 100mm L. And it was significantly better than the old rig. So sometimes one can overlook something and miss out. And that's why I thought I would ask my question about possibly moving up to FF. I kept out of the thread because I had no idea what you like to shoot, I should have mentioned - birds and bugs. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |
