Hi all! this is my first time on any kind of photographic forum so im hoping to pick up lots of new tips etc. Ive been taking photos for a while on a sony cyber shot sh40x, i found it brilliant to learn and the lens range i thought was great. However the inevitable happend and I decided I wanted to upgrade. Ive used nikon and couldnt fathom the menus, fuji fine pics s7000 was my first ever bridge camera and ive had various canons. As a result I have just spent the entirity of the last 2 weeks convinced I wanted to stick with a canon. I was looking and the 100d, 700d and the Sony a57k. Sony i gave up on quickly as i read the choice of lens wasnt great, I read almost every bit of info i could on the 2 canons and decided on the 700d. Im used to using the moveable live view screen and personaly i find it suits me. Went to the shop to buy it and thought....I'll just check its DEFINATLY what i want...I put them through hell in the shop lol. Made them put batteries charged batteries in the ones i wanted to look at that werent working so i could see what they were like when working, scrolled through all the menus, made them turn the alarms off so i could pick them up properly and looked at 6 in total. I walked out with a Nikon D5200.....HA! I picked one up while I was in there and I think the experience ive had has meant i understand the menus a little better. A few reviews I read said it was slow to auto focus but i thought it was fine. Im so chuffed and grateful to the now traumatised man in the shop lol....today is a good day
