Hey all,
I'm an amateur photographer, for hobby at most, but I'm looking to do more with portraiture. Currently using a Rebel T1i with a Tamron 18-270mm lens.
My problem lies in whether or not to get a new lens or get a new camera of the D varieties. Which is best? 60D, 7D, or 5D. I can't consider the 1D since that is way out of my current price range. I've seen short films that were made using a 5D and was very impressed with the crisp visuals, which could potentially cause me to branch out into the video direction, and would therefore need a camera that provides exceptional recording.
Now for the uninformed, like myself, what's the better option? With cutting out the need for video - is a full camera upgrade necessary or is the proper lens selection and overall improving shooting skills the better way to go? Could a D improve the results of the Tamron lens? are they even compatible?
Thanks.
