I've had the setup you can see in my sig plus a OM 50 mm 1.8 for seveal months and it's been pretty good overall. I've had one gig and several shoots for friends for fun and I've noticed that many things really bother me. Some in time turned out to be just experience and knowledge based issues. But some are really bothering me when it comes to doing shoots. For shoots that I do, I mostly use my OM 50mm because it's just great and fast etc. But thr fact that it's so hard to get perfect manual focus. And sometimes I would have to have the model hold still thr same pose while I do 4 shots of trial and error focus tweaking where with auto focus it could just be one shot. My biggest problem is thr Olympus UI and the fact that my main lens is manual and is cumbersome and impractical.
I did some pictures today on my friends canon XS with 50mm 1.8. And everything was just super easy and convinient and had good results. There were three times as many auto focus points, UI was easy to navigate. I even love the button feel. It's lighter too. And focusing was faster and automatic and quieter than on my camera. And overall pictures looked so much more crisp and had more vibrance with color and nuance.
So in my head right now there are just so many thoughts and factors in my head that show me that every canon that I've used from friends auto
automatically result in better overall experience than my current setup
I am thinking of selling the whole thing and getting a canon probably xs/xti
what do you guys think? I mean I have two friends that are professional photographers who workin studios all day and they both have canon and said would never use olymp
if I were to sell. How much could I get for my setup in my sig plus the mentioned OM lens
