Replying to So my Dad's just given me free use of his old camera setup..
My Dad has just agreed to let me use his old camera gear and from what he has said it is a great setup. It consists of a camera, flash, and two lenses. My problem is the camera is film, I would like to upgrade to a digital camera and still have use of the lenses and flash to cut cost. The camera is a Canon EO5 650, one lens is a 35-70mm the other is a 70-210mm, and the flash is a Speedlite 300EZ. Could you suggest to me a good digital body that isn't to expensive and will work with the lenses and flash? Also is it possible just to buy a camera body with no lens to save cash? If someone could tell me how nice of a setup this is I would appreciate it. (I'm sorry if that sounds arrogant but I do not know much about camera's but would defiantly like to learn). If it helps I'll be photographing wild life to start and then would like to get into skiing once I learn a little. Also I have emailed Canon tech support to but I figured it couldn't hurt to hear a second opinion.
Thanks a lot
