^^What he said, shots are
What are you shooting?
My bad, indoor and outdoor.
Portraits and landscape.
Now im lookin for a new camera as well, so what cannon lens and camera would you recommend?
Real talk im a rookie on all this lookin to spend around 3 grand total. Can settle for a great cannon learnin the ropes and then progress into a new lens.
For a rookie looking to spend 3 grand is a lot of dough lol. I'd say a used canon 6d with a 24-105mm should be good for what you will be using it for. It can be bought for ~$1400. The 24-105 isn't the sharpest lens but it will give you versatility with portraits which and landscape. Jumping into a 5dMK2 or 3 for a beginner is not what I would do since you probably won't use the full potential of it but you could also do that and just stick with it for a while. If you want prime lenses for better focus I'd shoot with a 50mm for portraits and 28mm or wider for landscapes? Depends on the type of landscapes also.
Many say the 70-200mm is the workhorse lens from canon with sharp focus but it goes for $1600+ brand new, an alternative is the tamron or sigma version which is cheaper.
