What Kind of Camera Should You Buy?

I get asked this question ALL the time. Deciding on camera gear can be tricky. I cover this more in depth, based on individual needs, in my photography class. Your gear depends a lot on what you are planning to shoot.

Here are my suggestions for Canon gear with different budgets in mind. Don't pay extra for kit lenses.  They are okay to start with, but you will want to spend that money on better lenses. 

A great beginner camera is the Rebel T7i 

   Canon EOS Rebel T7i DSLR Camera (Body Only) $749.00 $649.00    

Intermediate FULL FRAME Camera 6D Mark ii

Canon EOS 6D Mark II DSLR Camera (Body Only)

Advance FULL Frame 5D Mark iv

Canon EOS 5D Mark IV 

My favorite lenses 

50mm A great lens for a great price. 

Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM $125.00

One of the best selling lenses a bit of an upgrade compared to the one above, but still affordable. 

Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM $329.00

This one is a zoom lens and it is my favorite especially for sports. 

Tamron SP 70-200mm f/2.8 Di VC USD G2

You can buy other brands that fit your canon camera.  Just make sure it is made for your camera. Tamron is a bit cheaper than the canon lens 70-200. 

Hope this helps give you some ideas for your next camera purchase. https://www.bhphotovideo.com is a great resource and it lets you compare different cameras side by side.
