There's a board dedicated to cameras and photography.

>>57318413
Don't buy an expensive body and cheap out on the lens.

Get a used 5D Mark II and spend more on a better lens.

>>57318665
what wrong with the lens?

>>57318707
What's wrong with your face?

Also this belongs on >>>/p/

>>57318468
They are, but having a general is fucking stupid if there is board specific for the fucking stuff.

>>57318413
>6d for $1500

Get a hasselblad

>>57318707
Oh shit my bad, I got confused with the lens. That's a fine combo, but just shop around a bit more, you can get a better price for the 6D.

lmao waste of money just use your phone

>he isn't getting a mirrorless camera

let's all point and laugh at OP

>>57318801

b-but /p/ wants photos instead of gear, this bunch of artsy faggots

>>57318413
Pos non weather sealed consumer junk. Have a ball when the rain starts to drizzle. Just get a pentax K-1 or jump straight at the Industry standard 5d if you feel the need to shoot Canon.

Seriously?

Everyonr shit posts about camera choices and not his nutter comment about EMP blasts?

Anyway OP, you should get a mirrorless. Much more compact and perform just as good as most DSLRs.

Sony makes the best mirrorless now. Fuji is a very close second with some of their more recent models.

someone gave me a nikon fm2 with batt grip 10 years ago. haven't used it yet.

>>57318413

Anon, /p/ is for Photography. I did Photography years ago......well over 20 years ago. I used Nikon and Canon Cameras. This was in the days before Digital SLR Cameras.

Canon Cameras are good apart from they are lightweight. Nikon Cameras are far more robust and much higher quality.

Also Nikkor(Nikon) Lens are far superior to Canons.

Do not buy Sigma Lens.......they are junk.

lol @ anyone not buying canon

only canon complaint that's valid is their ISO handling

other than that professional camera for any user

>sigma 50mm art
>sigma 18-35 f1.8
>regarded as best lens ever made
>ignores this and assumes sigma is shit

>>57322200
Maybe rebels. My 50d with grip is a fucking behemoth, it's so sturdy i feel like i could kill a man with it and take a photo afterwards without worrying about mechanical damage

>>57321540
Pro tip: No camera is truly weather sealed. Keep on believing that garbage.

I have a camera so I can take pictures of my battlestation and things on my desk.

>>57324114

Built like a tank. Just to show how long ago I am talking about......I had a Nikon F401s.I think I got it in 1990.

You wanna see quality...go look at the price of a Nikon F4 on Ebay.
