[finalf10]

Hi Guys,
intending to buy a camera but do not know much about them.
My budget is around 1.2k and would like to know which of the camera as stated in the title is more attainable and suitable.

Also, other than the budget, i would also like to know which camera as stated is better, in terms of photo quality, shuttle speed etc. Know nothing much about them. Would gladly appreciate if you can advise on them

the use of the camera is probably more for scenery and people-taking.

Thank you in advance for the help

Me with your budget, i would get a pre-owned 5D MK1 with Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 and a yongnuo flash which should cover 90% of all street situations. Not the fastest and newest but once you go full frame for street use, very very hard to look back at the models you shortlisted.

So what you mean is to get an 2nd hand 5d mk1 ??

Looked out in CS B&S here :

Buy/Sell: Canon Equipment

But 5d mk1 is a very old model and it's hard to come by. Maybe you can try those 2nd hand dealer shop.

FF is expensive and the lens is also not cheap.

I think your budget of $1.2K is too low for those models u listed.

So if I raise my budget to $2k! What model should I consider? And what type of lens I may consider too when I'm ready to buy the camera??

The camera takes the pictures.

The lenses allows the camera to take pictures.

You will never go wrong with Canon and Nikon as they are the more popular camera brand.

Lens wise, depend on what u want to shoot. Maybe a normal zoom lens like the 24 to 85 or 12 to 24 ?

I still prefer non full frame as it is smaller lighter and cheaper.

You can also consider micro4/3 cameras as they are very small and light. But not so good for action shots and flash photography.

Right now the 70D and D7100 are very good all rounder camera.
