Katana

Thanks Brian, definitely alot of great info to digest, I appreciate the time ?

I had thought about a second hand body, but not knowing how its been treated/history does put me off slightly, at least with new I can go and throw it back at the sales person and tell them to fix it ? Ive seen alot of the canon 6d m1 (like the one in the link) new in my budget but with reviews on the 7d I wasnt sure if I should go the full frame. I was worried about the cost of switching over to Nikon, so its definitely some thing to think about! I may wait it out a bit longer to see the 5d3 go onto clearence when they release upgrades Keeping in mind I dont intend on ever doing paid shoots etc, I'm just a hobbiest that likes to take photos of animals and my partners neice and nephew

That would really depend. I cant decide based on zero knowledge, the cameras I have seen in my price range are the 6d, 7d and 80d. But I'm not sure if the 6d is worth the extra few hundred or if the 7d or 80d would be better "bang for buck"

Budget I'm trying to be flexible with but the closer to the $1500 mark the better. I have the 2 kit lenses 55-250 1:4-5.6 18-55mm 1:3-5.6 As well as a 50mm 1.8 24-105mm 1:4L I dont think the 24-105 focuses correctly on my 650d either

Hi Brian, I own a canon 650d, and the noise at 100iso is ridiculous (slider is nearly at 100 for noise and 25+ for colour removal), Im looking to upgrade but am unsure which camera is a good one to look at ($for value) Completely a hobby photographer so not wanting a 5dmk5 or anything silly. Is there a canon you would recommend or should I be considering another brand of body? Thanks in advance
