Want to buy a SLR entry has been entangled in a55, a580, 60d. Is 18-200 useful when traveling, or do you need any shots?

If you travel to Tibet, it is suggested to rule out A55 first, hehe.

The reason is that A55' s ultra-power viewing mode and shooting mode always make people worry about their batteries when shooting in the wild. Although you can buy N spare batteries, Sony's batteries are characterized by slow charging speed, and charging N batteries is also a big problem. You can't get up in the middle of the night in a hotel and think about charging.

Compared with A580, 60D recommends Sony A580.

Reason one: your budget.

If you choose 60D, the budget of 8000 is really tight, so you can only buy another lens with average quality. In my opinion, if the Canon 60D doesn't use a higher quality lens like 1740L or 1585, the shooting effect will be greatly reduced, and the power of the 60D mid-range SLR will not be exerted at all.

If you choose A580,8000, you can have enough money left to buy a top APS-C lens. Carl zeiss DT 1680ZA A580 with 1680ZA is definitely the most cost-effective in the entry-level SLR, and the imaging quality is very good.

Reason 2: The shooting theme of Tibet.

The scenic features of Tibet are snow-capped mountains, blue sky and big scenes.

The A580 has a very powerful shooting function, swinging panorama. You can search for a photo of Zhang Quanjing. It's really spectacular, especially suitable for taking huge landscape photos. If you go to such a beautiful place as Tibet, it is very practical to have such a camera. In addition, the most poisonous part of carl zeiss lens is the blue imaging effect.

Canon 60D lacks such practical functions, or 60D is a good SLR, unlike A580. Too many functions are also one of the reasons why Sony SLR is unprofessional.

Reason 3: Who is the leader in the evaluation results of DxOMarker of 2065 438+00 APS-C camera?

You can search this comparative evaluation article, comparing A580 and 60D SLR, both of which are sold at 20 10. In this way, the A580, as an entry-level SLR, has surpassed the 60D of the mid-range SLR in color, dynamic range and application field. It's really surprising, but since it's an evaluation article, it's best to read it from your own point of view.

A polarizer is actually unnecessary. The blue sky in Tibet is already deep, and CPL is just icing on the cake. Actually, my own CPL, alas, is hardly used. Screw it on, take it off and screw it on again. It's really too much trouble.
