Hi Jesi,I also just do this for fun,,,,I buy old frames at garage sales or thrift type stores that I think look good and frame any photo I think looks good,,,,my e-mail is vichalom73@exede.net if you want to chat,look forward to talking!
Im still in the thread,just reading the comments,which there are plenty,as for video in the camera,I dont hate it,I just dont use it,but the trend at the moment is to have it in all cameras,well nearly all.I'm new to digital,having used film for years,I use to have a Canon A1 and a Olympus OM1n which i sold to a photo friend for his colection.
I like B&W prints,love the ship...good work.
Why don't Canon,Nikon etc make a dslr without the video bit,all i want is the photo taking part,so why should I pay for something I never use.
The light gives it a tranquil look,I like them all.
Has anyone ever used that small black square tv ariel that you stick to your window...just wondered if it worked or if its a piece of seen on tv junk
I wouldn't give direct TV the time of day,all they are after is money,money,money.Your bill just keeps climbing up and up and they dont tell you anything,also the are very hard to talk to,customer service has a lot to learn.The charge of $40 to get your service turned back on is unbelievable.For what they offer,half the programmes are just rubbish,i'm thinking of getting an outside ariel as I usually only watch the local channels.
Myself I would leave out the mic,it hides her mouth....otherwise looks good.
The original Nikon tripod collar will set you back around $200+ but there are plenty third party collars out there for much less.I myself think the collar should come on this lens for a few more bucks on the price,$200+ is a bit steep!

If you are set on a Canon, A refurbished 7d and an 18-135 would more than meet your criteria.Although the 7dmk2 is now available the 7d is still a hellofa camera. I know cause I own one.
Thanks for the advice,I will look into the 7D and the 7D mk2...Thanks again.

Why are you stuck on Canon? Canon produces decent cameras but they are way behind in sensor quality at the moment. The money you have available can buy a new Nikon D7100 plus a decent zoom lens like 18-140mm, a very versatile lens. The D7100 is rated way higher than any Canon crop sensor camera of near similar cost. Not all UHH will agree :D
If you go used you could pick up a D7100 body and Nikon's excellent 24-120 VR lens - a pro quality zoom.
I have a friend who has a D7000 and he loves it,he said I should look at the D7100....Thanks for the advice, I will check one out!

Get a Canon T5i and save the rest of the money until you figure out what lens you would like to add to your equipment, Bob.
I was looking at the T5i and liked what I saw,I could get myself some decent glass with the rest of the money...Thanks
Hi, I have just retired and want to do some landscape photography and also some travel photography.I am looking for a Canon SLR for landscape work and wondered if anyone had any info which of the canon slr's and lenses I should be looking at.I used to have a nikon D3000 system which I gave to a friend about a year ago,as she was interested in photography,but had no money.I have a budget of around $1000/$1500 for the SLR.I would appreciate any advice on the SLR and on which lens I should use....Thanks.
