Which DSLR would be most likely suited for me?
I'm only asking on here because I feel like I should also take in others opinions and thoughts.
Well I've been doing photography for nearly 2 years now, I sold my little Canon Powershot SX20 (gonna miss that little guy), and now I'm stepping up to a DSLR. In my budget I'm looking for a DSLR ranging from 700 to no more than 1, 000.
I really was looking into the Canon Rebel T3i, Canon 60D or the Nikon D5100, but I'm not sure of these three. I need HD video since I also make short films (and the Canon seems to win in that) and of course fine detail photography. Then again, the lens also count a lot, but for now I'm mainly focusing on the camera body. I'm not sure if these 3 I've mentioned above sound suited for me, and if one does, please let me know. Or if there's another DSLR that's around what I'm looking for.
I'm a Canon guy and i only recommend what i own and therefore know - Canon. The t3i is an excellent camera but it doesn't do "films" - that's in Hollywood so get your terms in order please… These cameras shoot video and only do videos - not films.
If you've looked around the web you know the t3i, in kit form, will run about $950.
Yes Canon has better fps in HD video and better audio levels, but quality is the same of course. Quality is the same on all DSLRs.
These 3 are for you, and there aren't like hundreds of models. 60D is the best, but if you don't need the larger body and 5.3fps then T3i will be excellent! Spend the rest on some good lenses.
