Good questions I was a bit vague. I am a hobbyist and shoot family sports vacation .. Doing 2 weeks in Europe this

summer and I have a T1i right now. I was considering the 60d or the 7d I am still a bit old school and love to shoot B&W

and have really taken my time learning my current camera. I guess it's time to move forward so I was looking for a bit of

guidance. I have a lot of friends that are Nikon loyalists but I ha e been with cannon since my film days and am brand

loyal.

I have a chance to buy a used 7d @11 months old under 1000 pic taken for $950 with a 50mm and a tripod is this a fair price or should I

just pass on this one

<p>I was seriously considering the 18-135 or 18-200 will that be wide enough? for shooting the sites and I assume indoor I would want something faster like maybe a 40 or 50 prime?<br>

The other question I have are filters ... necessary or not (this may be a question that gets some interesting responses. I have read quite of few different opinions on this subject.<br>

I was trying to keep it to 2 lenses so that I was not fumbling too much with lens changes also I was considering a small tripod (tabletop) or gorilla? <br>

I was also looking at borrowlenses.com are there other or better places to rent from? </p>

18-55. 70-210. And 55-200 I have never been really satisfied on a beginner level with these lenses. I was thinking about

buying or renting some other lenses. I know the T1i is old but it has served me well for a basic dslr

I will be on a 14 day cruise starting in Barcelona hitting Florence Rome Athens Malta .... You get the drift I am looking for 2 lenses to bring

with me for all the excursions. I have a T1i and I am considering a 60d but will most likely stick with what I have. I would like to shoot

street landscape some low light I am sure and family. All suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Dave
