<p>So I've been using my canon t2i for the past 3 or so years (bought it used) but I'm looking to upgrade to full frame and I was wondering if the Canon 5D is an upgrade in anyway over the t2i or if i should just save up and buy a newer 5D or a 6D. I understand that the 5D is five years older than the t2i but I've heard that the original 5D is usable up to 1600 ISO and I refuse to push my t2i past 800 because at 1600 its completely unusable for what I need. I shoot mostly low light indoor events, and portraits.</p> <p>Thanks for the advice!</p>

<p>I did notice that sometimes the meter registers in the view finder and other times it doesn't.</p>

<p>Would it be possibly to verify with my DSLR? Not sure if film meters and digital meters are the same... I know nothing about film.</p>

<p>I've been in the digital photography world for about 3 years and just decided to try my hand at film when I found a minolta XG7 in mint physical condition for a ridiculously good price (turned out shutter was stuck). I purchased Fuji Superia X-tra 400 film. I shot all 24 frames and took it to be developed but when I went to pick it up the guy told me that it was blank except for 1 frame... 1-19 and 21-24 were all blank (by blank I mean unexposed) and the only frame that turned out was number 20. Before I shot anything I took the camera to be repaired (shutter was stuck) but after repairs it appeared to be working perfectly fine, shutter fires no problem. Could this be user error? Or camera malfunction? </p>
