Canon DSLR?

Yo ns. I really want to buy a DSLR. I'm open to any options but I want a canon if possible because I have some lenses that I could get for free, so the only lens I'd need and want to buy would be a fisheye.

It would be cool to shoot at 1080p 60fps, but it seems like the canons I can afford won't do that. Would 1080 30/ 720 60 do for me? Or should I try to go for like a Nikon or Panasonic?

Also what's the big difference between the t3i, t4i, and t5i because they all have they same video settings

7D Mark 2 is going for $1400 with no lenses, and is the only Canon DSLR with 1080p60.

All the rebel series Canons are basically the same. t5i is newer than the t3i. As for video settings, 1080p30 will do just fine. If really needed, you can upscale the 720p60 sl0-mo footage.

I also have a t3i bundle I'm looking to sell. Let me know if you're interested.

Yeah man pm me.

Also it's really between the t3i or t4i IF I go canon. I'd rather go Nikon or Panasonic but I just don't have access to those lenses.

Just buy an adapter. Gh2's are cheap and you could probably squeeze out a gh3 if you gots the funds. If you only want video or mostly video, gh3 all day long.

Well I'm really liking some of the nikons now, like the d5200. I'll probably take quite a few pictures as well as videos with this camera.

if you're focused on video the GH3 is the best value 1080/60p cam right now, I'd definitely avoid canon for video

Yeah I want to avoid canon as well. It's just hard to find some killer deals on some nikons or pannys

i love my 5200. Great camera and i have no issues. Maybe go with the 5300 if you want a little larger ISO range.
