Thomas Varghese Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 @Lakshmi Narasimhan Canon's menu system is easy to understand and change fast. Nikon's menu system is very cumbersome and sometimes I find it difficult to change settings from an array of menu's. Maybe because I'm used to Canon system. I find the canon color science more appealing. If you shell out a little more money you can buy a Canon 6d Mark 2. I think they have reduced the prices of this camera so much as they might shelf this model soon. Its a good full frame camera and you can use Magic Lantern software to tweak up the Canon capabilities. The only problem is you can only use the full frame EF lenses which are more expensive than the APS - C EFS lenses. The pictures this 6D Mark 2 takes is almost on par with their 5D series. Even Canon 800 D is an amazing camera. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lakshmi Narasimhan Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 @Thomas VargheseI have invested on new car and on mods. I need bit more time to have my dream camera (Canon 5D MarkIV), mean time to start with learning basics I need a budget camera even a second hand should be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brette Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Hi @Frederic I have a very basic DSLR, Canon Eos 550d with the kit lense. Never really used it much except for the auto mode. This will be a first for me to try and use any other mode. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have my EOS 500D but unfortunately my son did something to it and its not switching on. Got to give it for repair. @Brette you need to switch from Auto to the creative zones of the camera and discover new techniques of photography which your EOS 550 is very capable of delivering. Its like you have a 4X4 but never switched it from 2H to 4HI all the time you had it. Recently one of my friend was saying he had used 2 Pathfinders for 15 years but never even dared to touch the 4HI knob. After a drive with @Tbone as my passenger he is regretting he never tried all this with his cars. 1 hour ago, Lakshmi Narasimhan said: @Thomas VargheseI have invested on new car and on mods.

Then you can try the new mirrorless series from Canon when the budget suits you. Canon 5D Mark IV is already 2 or more years old now. I heard their mirrorless are beasts.

In fact Canon is now discontinuing some of their very good DSLR lenses and now focused on Mirrorless lenses The cost of the RF lenses are similar to the EF series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, it is totally up to you to choose Nikon or Canon, both are good. I can advise to buy popular DSLR with popular lens mount so you can find lots of new and used lenses on the market. So, Nikon 5600 or Canon eos 800D should be fine. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
