Shot this bad boy Friday night. Beautiful curves but for the price I would much rather get a GTR.

Okay i have a decent collection of Canon glass.
Camera body is a Canon 60D. The 70D wasn't much of an upgrade.

1. What's the next step up on the Canon model range?
2. If i'm moving from a 16mp sensor... is there much room for improvement? (besides iso)

Thanks all!

If you're in a position where your skill has improved to where your 60D is limiting you, the next step is to go with either the 7D Mark II or the budget friendly full frame 6D. Nothing below that will be any kind of upgrade over the 60D. Higher end camera give you more focus points, better low light sensitivity, more usable ISO (emphasis on USABLE), more flash control, and better ergonomics, amongst other things.

Most people are limited by their lenses more so than their camera. What kind of lenses are you using currently?

Hey 6SPD, thanks for commenting...

Lenses are as follows:

• Walk-around: 18-135mm
• Zoom: 70-300mm
• Prime: 35mm F2.0
• Wide: 10-18mm

Any thoughts? :tup:

Yeah man, so if you want to keep the lenses you currently have, then you shouldn't get the 6D, or any full frame body, as the 18-135 and the 10-18 won't fit full frame bodies. My honest suggestion is to keep what you've got and invest in better lenses if you are looking for better image quality.

IF you want to just spend money, buy a 6D with the 24-105 and you're set. Can't beat it, really.

Bought the 24mm pancake lens recently but haven't been able to find an infant to take photos of. I know it won't be as good as the 40mm but it seemed like the better walk around lens.

I have a 24mm lens too.:tup: It's the best for landscape imho.

Playing around with my strobes today so I needed a test subject.

And shot my friends car along with him and his wife. Not my most favorite shot but they liked it.

:iagree:

How are the Profoto's treating you? I can tell the power of them from the first shot.

Anyone get a shot of the Perseids last night? I tried but clouds started moving in as it got late.

So far so good. For automotive they have been great. I have a photoshoot coming up for SWAT so that will really put them to the test. I have two speed lights I will use as well to bounce off of an umbrella for fill, but the profotos will have to be my hard rim lighting. Will see how they work at distance.

I will say I hate the fact that I cannot plug them in and use them. Really sucks having to recharge. Depending on how things go I might buy Profoto Acute 2R at the end of the year to give me that extra power I am looking for.

That is if I dont buy a GTR haha, otherwise thats where all my money will go.

Damn wish I had that kind of dough, I could use a better lighting setup. Hell, I wish I had any extra dough lol, tough times.

Nice! but those plastics on the bike look to pretty for it to be stunt bike! lol

Canon 6D
 

I was in the same boat but did had a Canon T3 (starter camera) 17-85, 50F1.8, 28F1.8, 55-200. Since I just bought the two lens this year I didn't want to go full frame. But after contemplating awhile, I ended up with a 6D and 24-105. No regrets because I'm no open to expanding in the future.

The quality is phenomenal. Of course the 6D is no comparison the the 5DMIII but I always liked to go with a decent camera body and invest the money into the lens. Hence the T3 before.

I sold the body and three lenses then picked up a 16-35 F4. My favorite so far because its perfect for car photography. Looking to add a 35F1.4 for specialty shots but the 28F1.8 covers that for now.
