Correct, South West. I have family in Sussex though when I next see them I could pop into Parks Cameras.

I'll have a look at the one in Bristol, thank you

Thank you for the reply. I've been having a look into Park Cameras and they seem to have a reasonable shop in Sussex I could visit, if you have any experience with them?

Thanks for the reply. It's hard to me to at, short notice, be able to swing a 7 hour round trip to Birmingham unfortunately. I'm trying to find a camera shop here in the south west that I could visit

That's the loop I really nearly ended up going down to be honest. I started off looking at R50's and R10's then quickly went off down the R7/8 road with that thought process. A good second hand R10 is about £750.

Thank you for your reply. I've moved my goal posts yes, because there's simply so much range and many options to look into/at it becomes overwhelming. The 5diii seems like a solid choice for sure. Would you say the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM lens is a good all rounder? (Family...

What makes you say that they give nicer images? Im just surprised if they upgraded the camera to the mark iv and the image quality was worse. I don't really want to crop my images too much, more just taking hugh quality ones. I feel like the Mark 3 is a good starter point. And may I ask...

Second hand, the camera (5diii) around £500, the (5div) around £1,000. The 100-400 pre owned is £850-950. The 24-105 pre owned is £400-500. If I went for the 5diii plus the lenses all in I'd be at £2k or the 5div I'd be in at £2.5k. The lenses I could carry forward onto a EOS R full frame...

I really like the look of the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 L IS II USM' as my long range lens and the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM Lens as my general purpose lens.

I know the 5diii has been recommended but how about the 5div second hand? I can bag a like new one for £1,000. Only 1312 shutter count. Brand new from Canon is £2829. Seems like a good deal? (Copied from another thread of mine)

Thank you for your reply. I am mostly wanting to do family photos, holiday photos, wildlife (some up close some using zoom from lenses), birds, owls etc. I suppose birds are fast moving when they take off/ mid flight. I was thinking of a 5diii with EF lenses I could carry on using with a EOS r...

I was thinking getting a second hand 5diii with some EF lenses I could use with the EOS R series when I upgrade the body in the future

It's abit overwhelming, looking at it from a new comers perspective. Lots and lots of choices with various different things in regards to the cameras. Is one more likely to be future proof? Or will the keep developing the APS-C and Ful Frame?

Getting confused about which sort of camera to go for... They seem to split into APS-C's and Full Frame. (Mainly Canon R7 / R8 I'm looking at) Any Pros and Cons to either or? I'd be looking at taking more pictures than videos. Thanks for reading
