So I’ve a EOS 40D which is starting to show its age, in good physical condition and in daylight it’s awesome but when my phone can take better low-light photos than the 40D with a f/1.4 lens I know it’s time to either retire the SLR, or get a new body.
Obviously I’m going for new body.
I’m not made of money so will happily buy a used body. Looking around, the 70D looks like a good compromise. New enough that it has a good sensitivity, does video, articulating screen, still has lots of buttons (I love the focus point jog dial and really miss it when using my wife’s 450D) and you can pick it up for £500. Or should I up my budget and look at the 77D/80D/whatever xxxD there is now?
