haha i got lot fren bank crupt cause of it haha
i dunno wanna join the gang or just join mirrorless camera T T
but
-kytz- mirrorless NEX series can fight with 6200 and 650D ?
I bought myself a 60D for RM2k about close to 2 years ago but spend 4-5k++ extra for lenses and accessories
You might want to take a look at mirrorless cameras, for example the NEX series cameras from Sony [mirrorless cameras are basically DSLRs without the mirror and therefore they are able to be much smaller]. There are a few models in the range of RM1.6k to RM1.8k. They feature the same optical sensor size as most conventional DSLRs [APS-C size] so the difference in Image Quality difference isn't that much.
Cameras like the NEX series [or any other similar cameras] are smaller, lighter and offers more mobility to the user. It's just like a normal compact sized camera.
But the most important difference between a mirrorless camera and a DSLR is the
HANDLING. For a DSLR, I have very fast and easy access to all of my camera functions. A dial for changing the aperture and another dial to change the shutter speed. Dedicated buttons to adjust the ISO, metering, AF mode, shutter mode. There is a top LCD panel to show all of my camera settings so that I do not even have to enter the menu to know what settings I'm shooting at.
But for most of the mirrorless cameras [I dare not say all], they do not have all of these buttons everything you want to adjust you would have to dive into the menu to make adjustments. It's hard to make adjustments quickly on the go.
Another thing to note that, with mirrorless cameras, you do have some lenses to choose from but it really isn't as much as the variety you get with a DSLR. I can buy and use nice lenses from Canon, Sigma, Tamron, Tokina, Samyang, Zeiss and many more. There are a lot of lenses to choose from. With a DSLR, I can also easily mount a external flash or a wireless flash to do a studio setup. Or I can easily mount a microphone to improve audio quality recording tremendously.
But at the end of the day, it all comes back to what you are shooting and how will you be progressing in this hobby. A DSLR is a more superior camera than the conventional mirrorless camera in terms of Image Quality, handling, built quality and versatility but it IS HEAVY and BULKY. It is definitely not everyone's cup of tea, that I can assure you.
Just giving you an alternative before jumping into the DSLR bandwagon. I know of a lot of people who quit using DSLRs because of the weight and bulk but there are a lot who stay put because it's the
right camera for them. Different strokes for different folks I guess

My dua cents. Do keep us updated
