Hi All,
I own a Canon 700d and recently bought a 16-35 f/4L. I love taking landscape photos, sunsets, pretty much anything in the outdoors with a wide angle. I only take photos as a hobby and have gotten more interested in this in the last 3-4 months but still have a long way to go (Instagram).
I feel like I am getting to the point where I'm outgrowing the 700D. It's low light performance at ISO800 and above is crap (as has been well documented elsewhere) and I feel like I want something even wider for landscapes with a full frame camera. I also own an EF-S 55-250 so I would have to replace this also. My budget would be about 1200-1400 euro max for a new body so the original 6D is probably my only Canon option but I know it is old. I've read it has very good low light performance. Someone mentioned to me about a 5Dm2 but I'm not sure if I'd be keen on buying a near 10 year old body, even if the image quality is superb.
The other option I'm looking at is a Sony A7ii. I see these becoming more popular and with in built IS, it would be a very good option if I was to buy fast lenses in the future as I wouldn't have to pay through the teeth if I wanted an IS version. I would like to keep my 16-35 f/4 and just get an adapter to use with the Sony. Anyone any good or bad experiences with this?
Basically, I'm torn. I think I want to upgrade but I don't know what I want. Not even sure if I should just get more lenses but the 16-35 has pretty much been stuck to my camera since I got it so I think I'm OK in that department for now. Thanks in advance.
