Which Canon to Purchase?

Post Tue Jan 27, 2009 1:27 am


Hello everyone, I have used digital for the past 7 years. I am going back to school and they require film camera. I want to stick with Canon. I have bought lots of accessories and lenses for my 30d that I am hoping to use with the film camera including 580 ex flash. Please whats a nice film Canon camera I can purchase that I could keep for a long run that will run strong and give me great results? Thank you! ps its for studio work. As always thank u pbase!

Go with one of the best, the EOS-1. They're quite inexpensive right now, around $100, and will last longer than any of the cheaper bodies.

Are my lenses from my 30d compatible with the EOS-1? As well as my 580ex?

Any EF-S lenses will NOT work on any Canon film body. EF lenses will be fine. The 580 will work but not with all its features - The EOS-1 does not have HSS. For that you need an EOS-3 or EOS 1V both of which run more $$$
