      @Matty123 I have a Canon EOS 40D body that I could sell you for $150,you would need to buy a lens. It was the flagship for that part of the line back in 2007.If you’re interested PM me as this probably shouldn’t be here.

          Nice to see in this Forum a Photograph and Camera-Thread! I do like photography a lot, I just love to be with my dog in the outdoors to photograph, doing sport and just getting the head free.

          Right now I am using a Canon 5D MK4 with 3 Canon and 4 Zeiss lenses but I have also the Sony RX100IV in use.

          Here are 5 pics I personally like a lot.

          Cheers!

            @Matty123 a recommendation really depends a lot on the price range you looking at.

              @Matty123 i've been a fan of the sony a7 range paired with a voigtländer lens. the prime lens makes it good for everyday photography or street photography and the quality is impeccable. the fact that the sony body is a mirrorless full frame as well makes it easy to carry about. compared to an entry level full frame of a 6d. which is bulky but when paired with a good lens like the 24-70 f2.8l lens makes it really heavy to carry everyday.

              if you're looking somewhere further down the line, canon's g1x series has always been my go to. had one a few years back and it's easy for someone to start of shooting..

              @marlin great shots. always been a fan of the 5D, especially the mk2. my 6d cannot even hold a candle even with the 24-70 f2.8l lens.

                    @louisbosco, for real? That really surprises me, since they are a couple years apart.

                      i had some of my best years shooting the 5d mk2. maybe it's a nostalgic reason and i understand that in terms of specs the 6d is definitely better seeing it's an improvement over. but using the 5d mk2 just feels really easy to use, especially with the layout of the 5d to the 6d in general. to me the 5d mk2 was an improvement over the mk1 which was the entry level full frame, and now the 6d feels the same way as the mk 1 did back then..

                      at the end of the day, the camera doesn't really matter much as long as the holder knows where and what to shoot.

                          @louisbosco , this statement regarding the haptic and user experience I heard already a couple of times.

                          Yes, you have to know what you are doing, must have the eye and most important you have to be to the right time, on the right spot (like the rainbow in the Rapa-Delta-Shot). But for certain tasks it definite helps a lot, or makes the shot even possible, if you have the right tools! Sport-Animal- or Night photography comes to my mind.

                          The night shot was taken with ISO 10000, 30 sec. and 15mm with f2.8 !

                          Cheers! 😉

                                  Yes Max, this are the Tre Cime in the Dolomites, this picture was made on the same tour like the pictures I postet before (Page 105). The Dolomites are my favourite place to go, at least from dose places within my reach, just love them!

                                      @marlin - Those shots are awesome. I've done enough photo to know how much accumulated work needs to be done before pulling something like those. Well done.

                                      @Matty123 - There are lots of good cameras available these days. You need to boil down the ocean between SLRs, mirrorless, and others, and then see what's available for your price range. You can get deals on refurbished cameras from the OEM, or buy a used camera from an established dealer like B&H in NY. Lenses are as important as the camera and can be a lot more expensive. IMHO, wildlife photo is about the hardest thing an amateur photographer can pursue and it requires some of the most expensive lenses. My recommendation would be a full frame SLR and a single fast prime lens, maybe 50mm, and focus on learning to take pics with available light. As a side note, I found the book "Understanding Exposure" super useful.
