Question

Canon

There are 50t.r., I want a DSLR.

Carcass + optics separately. Canon only. There was 1000d, I grew out of it. There is a canon 50 1.8 portrait lens.
Flash is not needed, only the carcass and optics.

I will take portraits, landscapes, just ordinary, staged photos. No sports, reports, etc.

Answer 1

I would take a couple of three good lenses for the same amount as a DSLR. Each lens gives its own picture. Changing the camera will not give anything IMHO. A full-format matrix is ​​of course preferable, but I would still focus on optics. Yes, even take the EOS => M42 adapter and try to shoot with Soviet lenses, the picture will be completely different. Wide-angle, telephoto lenses will give you more room for creativity than just another camera.

Answer 2

If I were you, I would take the BU 5D Mark 1.
And so it was washed away to look at 50d, 500d, 40d + 17-85mm - with the expectation of a subsequent change in the lens to L, well, if you want to make a levelup :)

Answer 3

I advise Canon 50D or 7D. Or save some money and get yourself a 5D Mark IV, according to Ken Rockwell's advice, it is the best for landscapes.

Answer 4

IMHO 450d and a couple of good lenses

Answer 5

I agree that the lens is better. go for all the money, in the sense of 24-70 f / 2.8L just meet 50tr

Answer 6

but I would still take a flash ... a very strange desire of the author not to have one, because often it can help in a number of situations: slow synchronization, highlighting shadows, etc.

Answer 7

Thank you all very much for your advice.
But it's rather strange to see advice to buy stupid optics. I have 1000d, and you propose to hang optics on it for 50t, but what's the point? There is no light sensitivity, the quality is poor. They even somehow sat and compared 1000d and 450d, it would seem that they differ a little, but 450d does 3 steps ahead in quality.
What is needed is a competent carcass + more or less normal optics, otherwise nothing will work better.

Answer 8

I'm interested in what criteria you use to evaluate that you have grown from 1000d (I myself use the same carcass). Recently I thought the same thing until I learned how to work normally with RAW in Lightroom. I have something like 1000d and fifty dollars 1.8 in 95% of cases suits. Well, yes, there is still a flash and a stand with an umbrella (this is for portraits). And what is missing for landscapes?

Answer 9

When I chose myself, I stopped at the 550D. I have never regretted my choice: everything you need is there, the quality is excellent, light, it shoots HD video (it came in handy only once, but the result is very pleasing). They also write that his matrix is ​​the same as that of 7d.

Answer 10

I myself use the 50D, it is quite satisfied with the quality of the photos.
5D for a non-professional is a lot and there is no need, you just won’t use all the functionality.
Lens EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6
Both portrait and landscape look good with it. And it's quite budget-friendly too.
But if you want more creativity, then really, it is worth spending money on filter lenses. A lens with a fixed focal length of 50mm is not bad for a portrait. The background blurs very well (not too much and not too little), and the subject itself is quite clear.

Answer 11

take a look at the 550d. in my (and not only) opinion, a pretty good new model.
as an option, when choosing a model, you can look at Yandex.Photo which shots were taken with which devices.
