Hi guys ..

Should i buy a 2nd hand Canon 5D mark 1 with a budget of $2300?

Good camera? It's quite a old model though...

 

[charlesleong]

why do YOU want a 5D1? perhaps that's the key qn here.

 

[yamcake]

its still a great camera i think..
extremely good image quality, and good noise (though the mk2 is super amazing), the mk1 still quite acceptable for my usage..

I need a camera which is versatile. Indoor and outdoor shoots. Would you recommend tat ?

5D is an amazing camera.

NOTHING!~ I just sold my Canon 400D kit.

 

[charlesleong]

Budget S$2300?

Secondhand 40D + secondhand EFS 17-55 ƒ/2.8IS

If you have a 5D, what lens will you use? A full frame camera needs better glass to make use of the sensor.

agreed.

its such a huge jump and you aren't even certain whether you need a full frame. so i suggest you first take a small step and go for a XXD camera. the XXD series is a really impressive camera.

if you REALLY die die must go into full frame. start with a simple lens. a 28-135 should be handy.

I have Nikon D90 in mind too .. Ok .. i admit i'm fickle minded .. Tt's y i'm here to ask u all!! hahahaha.. Nikon D90 .. Any thumbs up for tt?

if you can afford it, go for it.

pair it with a 24-105L and you're good to go.

once you go full frame, it won't be the same using a crop anymore.

bro, dun waste time...you won't get your answer here. If you got the money, go and buy. Want to know good or not. Go and rent first before making any purchase.
