    @EyeManProductions Hey there, we will ask the team for you. Please be patient while we get you an answer. Many thanks, the Canon team.

    what lens did you used to shoot this entire video?

  3. MrXalan says:

    @97purna i recently upgraded from 1000d to 7d , its really not worth it , so you should go for a 550d to good L lenses

  4. DesIllVis says:

    @the97house I know, i hope it will be a mix between the 7D and 1dx or actually just a faster 5Dmk2 with improved focus system 😉

    I am a 17 year old photographer from the U.S. I have already begun selling my photography in galleries and have one numerous awards however I still need a DSLR and I know I will need quality glass if I want to grow as a photographer…Does Canon provide any form of payment plans or discounts for students? Because I have a job but I don’t make enough to pay for my photography ):

  8. CanonAustralia says:

    @DesIllVis Unfortunately Canon can’t comment on product release information but we do update our Facebook and Twitter when any new products are announced, so keep an eye out there.

  9. DesIllVis says:

    I know you can’t but please, please, please tell me when the 5Dmk2’s successor is coming out 😉 ?????? My 7D got stolen and this could be the moment to shift to FF, unless there will be a 5Dmk3 in a couple of monts…

    @97purna No problem :) Best of luck!

  11. 97purna says:

    @BrandonKingVloggin thanks for that and my budget will all depend when its time for me to get it!

  12. BrandonKingVloggin says:

    @willdrill482 Then I’d invest in lenses first and worry about a new body later :) Try an L lens like a 24-105 or a 24-70 :) if you can afford it though, but there are many great lenses to choose from :)

  13. willdrill482 says:

    @BrandonKingVloggin i have a 18-55

  14. BrandonKingVloggin says:

    @97purna Hmm… can you afford to add another 2-300 USD? Because then you can get the 50mm f/1.4, which is a workhorse of a lens compared to the 1.8/1.8 II.. then 70-200 f/4 is a great option. I currently have the IS version of the f/4 and it may not be an f/2.8 IS II, but it does a great job and I’m loving it. But that’s a good combination. My body is the 60D and it’s great. No regrets with it :) But I’m still saving up for another body. Perhaps a 5D Mark II :)

  15. 97purna says:

    @SirOpusculum thanks and im also considering the canon 60d with a 70-200 f4 L non is and a 50mm 1.8… what do u think about that combination??

  17. BrandonKingVloggin says:

    @willdrill482 It depends, what lens(es) do you have. The lenses are what give the great quality though, just remember that.

  18. BrandonKingVloggin says:

    @97purna If you’re just going for more portrait and less sport, go for the 550D with the L lens. The glass is what matters the most :)

  19. SirOpusculum says:

    @97purna At these times, low-budget bodies already perform very well considering resolution, ISO-range and burst, for example the 550D. But the lenses are the things that you really need to take outstanding pictures: The sharper, faster (meaning smaller f-numbers) and contrastier the lenses are, the better. BUT: You get these really pleasing results only with the pricier lenses. So you better invest in a good piece of glass. Hope I could help you.

  20. willdrill482 says:

    i have a 1000d, the image quality is good but im thinking on how to improve it from buying a new lense and not buying a new body
    please answer asap as it will help me alot
    thanks

  21. 97purna says:

    @CanonAustralia thanks for that!! but could you honestly tell me if i should get the 550d or spend that extra money to buy the 60d?

  22. CanonAustralia says:

    @97purna It does depend on you. We find that most of the time, photographers like yourself invest in lenses and upgrade the body when your skills improve. Cheers, the Canon team.

  23. what is more better and more important for me…. a 550d with a cheaper L lens..
    or a 7d with a cheaper lens??
    If ur wondering…. this is for a first dslr!!
    Please help me with ur honest opinions!

  24. TheCoFreshShow says:

  25. bigdavemchale says:
