Can you help me? My camera is a Canon 450D but now there is a chance for getting a new camera. This is a Canon 550D. Is it worth it? Here’s a picture I maked with the 450D in december:
Zsuzsanna!
I have surveyed a little your photos on FB. And have noticed that either you use a big crop or you have problems with focusing point. You have problems with sharpness. This is connected with autofocus point. By animals you should focus on the eye.
Barbara has right: important is the lens. And you have excellent lens.
So in my opinion you should: set the right autofocus point and use al little crop as it possible.
Also you should use more postprocessing (photoshop). Here is your bird on the left and on the right with my postprocessing (sharpened and better colours)
Ok background is burn out so it is not so good, but anyway with good postprocessing you can enhance photo
I watched this, I can not decide. :((((

It does make perfect sense and can unterstand your way of thinking - my husband just said that the digital bodies are not like wine: They don't get better with age. So if the deal is really good, maybe follow Jarno's suggestion and get the feel of the camera before you cut the final decision ( buttons stil at the same place; menu as it used to be...). I can also understand that it is difficult to let go of the old one; I never had to do it - the old mechanic bodies are nearly indestructable :-)).
Great that you already have a 1.4 converter!!! And I don't think you stil belong to the category of beginners!! I have seen many realy good photos already on your page!! And I hope to see more :-)).
In my opinion you have the right lens. This is the most important. You can do excellent photo with old camera and right lens (as you have).
I would not by it.
I just looked through the dpreviews Jarno posted and in my opinion the 550D is not much of an upgrade to the 450D. The greatest changes, I can see are:
The amount of megapixels, but with the 450D you already have a fine 12 MPx!
The movie function - I personally would not need that...
The higher ISO - now this I consider to be a real upgrade as you move from 1600 to 6400. But then you must be aware that that an APS C camera looks as grainy on ISO 3200 like my full frame camera on ISO 6400 and believe me, that's grainy!! No way for birds!! Not even 3200 on mine and that is as grainy as 1600 on yours... so we're back to the 450D.
If you like birds, like your lovely European Goldfinch, I would rather go for a good flash with a 'better beamer':

You seem to already have a good lens with the 70-200mm - if you want to go more on the tele side - less cropping - you might be thinking of a 1.4 converter; you would loose one fstop and be up on 5.6 but with a aprox. 100-280mm zoom; with the crop factor of your camera, that'll be about a 160-450mm zoom at f5.6! Handholdable!
And as Jarno said, maybe think about one day upgrading to the ten-series level. Good luck with your decision!
Congratulaton Jarno!
:)))))))))))))
