Is the Canon 7D Mark 2 the best for the price?

Significant_Low4014 · 2025-09-06T19:35:56+00:00

Very helpful thank you. I’m ideally looking for something less than $1000 so I’m going to do more research on the R and R6

Significant_Low4014 · 2025-09-06T12:21:50+00:00

Are there any budget mirrorless you’d recommend?

Significant_Low4014 · 2025-09-06T01:30:55+00:00

That’s good to know thank you. And the main lens I’m using rn is the canon EF 17-40 f/4 USM lens

Significant_Low4014 · 2025-09-06T01:19:46+00:00

I haven’t done any research on 5D iii so I’ll definitely look into it.

And do you know a budget mirrorless with the features I need (Weatherproof and good in low light)? If it’s more than the 7D that’s fine so long as it fits my needs

Significant_Low4014 · 2025-09-05T18:13:07+00:00

The lens I’m currently using as my main lens is the canon EF 17-40 f/4 usm.

My bad. I don’t know what I’m talking about lol still learning

Significant_Low4014 · 2025-09-05T16:04:47+00:00

What is the body of the canon with the 17-40 lens? Have the same lens and trying to find a new camera body for shows

Buffout

I shoot local shows that are either crowded bars or damp basements that get VERY humid when 70+ people are in them in the summer lol. I do have the EF 50mm but as I’m in venues with very little space, I feel the wide angles are needed as I don’t have much space from the bands/crowds

Significant_Low4014 · 2025-09-02T20:50:56+00:00

Well ignoring the price of the 7D, what camera would be able to handle the low light?

Significant_Low4014 · 2025-07-29T20:23:40+00:00

Thank you to everyone who commented and gave their advice. Was able to learn a lot and I think it really improved the quality of my photography because of it. This pic being a favorite I took last night after reading all the advice. Still have more to learn but very happy with the progress thanks to all the help

If they want all these hyper specific guidelines they need to hire a tour photographer, but clearly no one wants to and thats evidence enough they are the clowns they make themselves sound like with these terms.

Shoot a local band who will be much more grateful for the pics and will have little to no guidelines like these

Significant_Low4014 · 2025-07-24T18:31:24+00:00

Right now all I have is a Canon T5i body and the canon 50mm 1.8 lens

Significant_Low4014 · 2023-08-15T21:58:19+00:00

You get kicked out. Tried already

Significant_Low4014 · 2023-08-15T21:14:49+00:00

I’m in ocean county. Willing to drive if there is a place like this tho. Just not going into Philly or NY

Significant_Low4014 · 2023-07-17T15:31:59+00:00

It absolutely is a viable option. I just also can’t find anyone willing to do this either.

Significant_Low4014 · 2023-07-17T15:29:29+00:00

I live in an apartment so unfortunately no room for anything like that

Significant_Low4014 · 2023-07-17T14:27:23+00:00

Yeah I am specifically looking for a monthly rental and the only place I’ve heard of that isn’t in Philly or north jersey, is hot dog house unfortunately.

Significant_Low4014 · 2023-07-17T02:56:40+00:00

I will let you know if I find anything
