I’m wanting to start my own photography business. I start taking classes in about 5 months and I want to purchase a good camera before I begin. My price range is cheaper than $2,500.00 but can be up to that amount. I would really like to hear from photographers who are experienced and can give me good advise. I’ve been thinking about getting the Canon EOS 50D Black 15.1 MP Digital SLR. Is this a good camera? any specific Lens anyone recommends to go with it? Any help I can get I will much appreciate.
To Bob, looks like someone doesn’t know how to read. I START SCHOOL IN 5 MONTHS. but i need to get equipment first so i’m wanting advice. This is a long term goal. So next time you want to try and criticize maybe you should read the question.
To the person defending Bob. All I wanted was a little advise. If so many people are asking these questions then skip them and move on to another. Alot of you " top contributors" just have to comment on everything to bring your little points up. this is why I hate asking a questions cause I will always get these people that have no answers at all they just feel the need to say something. If your not wanting to help just please move on to the next question.
Got to ask this.
Why on earth do you think you can start a photographic business if you have absolutely no idea about photography???
I’m looking for a good deal trading a UEC Canon 20D for a Canon 50D. It’s perfectly acceptable to me if the 50D is factory refurbished. I don’t want to pay any more than $200. Can anyone direct me to a website or other service?
PS – I know that Canon has a customer loyalty program, but the camera you are exchanging must be broken, and they don’t publish what you get for what.
You may want to reconsider your position.
You have an excellent, nearly six year old camera that is worth about $350 to $400 and want to trade it plus $200 for a recent camera that is valued at $730 used. That means that you will have to come up with around another $200 IF you can sell the 20D for $350 to $400
Canon EOS 50D New – $1100
Canon EOS 50D Gray market – $850
I could not find a 50D that has been refurbished.

Have you called Canon and asked them for ideas? 800.OK-CANON. There may be some other options if you are a member of the Canon Professional Services program

it seems like it but it might just be a bit of a rip off
