1) Budget:
Right now I could spend about... $600-$700, but I could definitely see myself investing in different lenses in the future.
2) Experiance:
I have had one of those shitty blue canon cameras (the ones that fit in your pocket and are like $100.
2) Gear:
Tripods, mic.
4) What are you going to shoot?
Not much skiing at all actually. I want to do more... artsy abstract... short films... Of like trees and stars (I know right?).
5) Will you allow others to use?
No. Most likely not. I will film. It is mine.
7) Computer specs for editing:
This is not important right now. I have a million ram.
8) Editing program:
Nothing, I dont have one but could easily get one.
So thats that. Really looking for quality in videos and pictures... So thats why I was leaning towards the t2i.
The first camera I had I only used for like skiing, taking pictures of pets... This one is going to go through some serious shit, and needs to have the ability to capture everything I need it to.
Thanks to 1337. for making the thread, will start also helped me out a lot, and now I turn it to the public to flip through my answers and dawn on me the verdict.
