Hi Guys,
I would really appreciate your help and advice on what I should do.
So a few years ago, I purchased a Canon 550D from Jessops and have the kit lens and a few zoom and 50mm len's, nothing amazing. Its main use at the time was for mainly attend press events and take pics and video for interviews etc. Now I rarely attend them and the camera was used mainly for travel and personal use and amatuer photgraphy.
Sadly it recently died and it needs a new board. This is where I have now become confused, originally I set myself a budget of around £300-400 and was thinking do I want a new cam or used? Do I need to stay Canon? I was originally looking at 600D and 650D from MPB since ebay would be too risky for an old camera but its priced around £200 which made me think is it not better to get a newer cam that will work well for me? Recently Argos had the 200D and 750D which were both tempting but I could not make up my mind if they were good cameras or not. 200D seemed the better one which I missed before the 750D which seems older.
To confuse me more I went into Jessops and they suggested the 550D was similar to my 550D just a few more pixels, AF was similar. They suggested moving to a 77D which seems not a bad price at hdewcameras and thebackpackergear. (not sure if they are legit or grey imports).
Ideally I would like a good camera I can use to travel, have control and value for a while. At one point I was considering the 700D as it seems to have the main features?
If you can recomend a new or old camera which would it be and any suggestions are certainly appreciated.
Many thanks |
