Well, no Canon 70D bought today; waited in Jessops a good 10 minutes; one salesperson was attending to one customer (who was cleary wasting his time) whilst the other - a young girl/woman - just stood there. She looked a few times, but never approached. So I walk over to the where the 70D was...

Here's a thought: do I need an SDXC card for video or will an SDHC suffice? Ta.

Thanks for that Keeby.

I am my friend so I'll probably stick with what I know. Plus I'm not sure about the filter size of the 18-135, so that may create more expense, too. Think I'll just buy the body.;)

Hello. I'm sure the Canon 70D has been discussed here before, but with me being new around here I was hoping you guys wouldn't mind me starting a thread regarding this Canon camera... I've had a Canon 20D from new and quite soon after its first release, but I've thought about upgrading for the...

Hello everyone, I'm Simon and I'm new to talk photography. I started to form a keen interest in taking pictures since around 1984/85. My main interest in photography is transportation: aircraft and railways. But I do enjoy landscape, too. I hope you will go easy on yet another "newbie." Kind...
