Hey guys I have a question on which camera body I should purchase. Please note I don't need a lens this is for body only.
I'm currently stuck between the 70D, 6D, and 5D Mark II. My budget is currently $1200 but if it's really necessary I can save more. I'll be shooting and recording a lot in low light.
The 5D Mark II I can find used for around $1000 sometimes even less. The full frame will give me a lot less noise in low light but it's a few years old and I feel like the other two have superior auto focus. The 70D's auto focus system in recording is it's major plus along with the price of a new one for around $1000 but it's low light performance isn't as good as a full frames. Last the 6D I can find for around $1400 used maybe a little more or less. It's out of my budget but it can be obtained with a little saving. It's build quality isn't as good as a 5D but since it's newer I'll probably be able to get one in better condition then the 5D. Which one sounds like the best choice? I will have access to Canon EF lenses so there's no problem there it's just which body. Is the low light capabilities of a full frame worth it? I'm currently shooting with cameras from the rebel series and can see noise but I haven't used a full frame yet.
