Should I buy new Canon DSLR?
 
Hi all,

Can I buy a new Canon DSLR camera? Which one is the cheapest price? Can I go on eBay or Best Buy? Can I have a longer zoom 500mm or 1600mm?

Any suggestions?

Not sure what you are trying to ask.

FWIW - as soon as you have the money, or credit, you can buy it. I am neither your father nor mother.

Cheapest does not usually equate to new or performance.

Definitely BBY. Easier to return and guarantee minimal issues.

Not an expert of DSLR. But I believe you can change your lens to do what you want.

Curious about your looking for the cheaper prices and longer zoom? Can you elaborate on your need?

What are you going to do with a 1600mm lens? Quality lenses extend to about 400mm, unless you want to spend a large chunk of money. Anything above that is going to be manually operated, very high aperture, mirror lens that will take lousy photos.

Yes, you can buy a new Canon DSLR Camera

No, you cannot buy a 1600mm Canon mount lens. They don't make one in that focal length.

You could, however, buy a $10,000 800mm Canon lens and it looks like this.

Or a $30,000 Sigma zoom that looks like this, and fits your parameters at 200-500mm

Absolutely recommend looking at B&H or KEH for used cameras / prices.

And I don't know what I would do with the lens below, but I know I want it!

I wanted to improve my odds at birds in flight shooting and am pleasantly surprised at the quality of the Sony 200-600. Bargain is not quite fitting but for under $2K it is excellent.

Hi all, I got my new Canon camera. From my friends who work for Miami Airport and he gave me a birthday gift for me. I need your help. I need you to find a good lens. 70-400mm or 100-800mm? So please posts a link from eBay. So I can buy it.

Have a look at the 100-400 Canon IS II USM lens, and add a 1.4 converter to it. The 100-400 witout the converter is a very good birds in flight lens.
