Hello everyone,
I'm really interested why people feel the need to 'upgrade'. I use the 350D and am exceedingly happy with it. Used correctly, this camera can produced very excellent results indeed. The noise problem is simply not an issue, although of course you do get some at high ISO, but then DPP is able to 'fix' that quite nicely! I read that many people have owned this camera, but feel that now compared to the latest models, it cannot offer enough functions or is a bit limiting, depending on what you do. It would be worth while comparing the specifications from the later models to the earlier models. Generally, I think Canon do produce good cameras, and rather think that if you have poor results from the latest model - e.g. 7D, then just maybe, it is the case of a bad workman blames his tools.
So, why the need to upgrade.To be truthful, I would like to get the 50D, but it doesn't really do anymore than my 350D and simply cannot see the benefit. They both take pictures! Just need a good understanding of photography to get the best image. You don't even need to have the best lenses, e.g. Canon L series; Sigma seem to do fine, and cheaper.
For those who have upgraded, e.g. 350D to 450D, what is better about that camera, What benefits do you actually get from this - is the later model, truly better and you see significant improvement, if so - then that is a fair enough reason!
Could you please reply to this thread and let us members know the advantages or disadvantages of upgrading, reasons etc.
I'm just really curious!
PS, my question is really intended for the keen amateur, like me, who likes to take good pictures!
(I had better not apply to Canon for marketing! )
