I currently have a 5dii, 40d (which I almost don’t use anymore) and 100-400L and I’d like a significant improvement in terms of image quality and reach. Let’s say I (could) have up to 5k british pound budget, here’s are the option i’m looking at, which would you suggest?
7d II + 100-400 II + 1.4x III for £ 3400 – 2.78 kg
300 f4.5?, 640mm f5.6, 900mm f8
5d ii + 300 2.8 II + 2x III for £ 4800 – 3.52 kg
300 f2.8, 600 f5.6, (960 f5.6 on crop)
5d ii + 400 do II + 1.4x III for £ 5500 – 3.18 kg
400 f4, 560 f5.6, (up to 1280mm f8 with 2x on crop)
few more consideration
- I don’t shoot big wildlife too often, I’m probably a bit more into birds
- i don’t need more than 5fps or a large buffer
- I’m going to upgrade my 5d sometimes in 2015 anyway and i don't need a crop dslr for anything else than wildlife.
- 7dii +100-400 are going to depreciate way more than the 300 II so in the long term the saving is not going to be that much.
Since it’s an outrageous amount of money, i would really like to see a big jump in terms of image quality and reach. I’m just an amateur and i wonder if i should train a bit more before upgrading.
These are the kind of shots i do, i’m not too much into BIF, i generally include more of the surrounding environment.
What do you think?
