Hi everyone,
I have been using a Canon 7D Mark II for close to 10 years. I shoot concerts, live theater and other on stage performances and sports (mostly soccer). I work for a ballet company where I shoot in their studios during class and rehearsals as well as any performances they hold. I have a small set of lenses I use regularly including a 70-200mm f/2.8 and 24-70mm f/2.8. I've been really unhappy with the 24-70 lens since I bought it a year ago but am also noticing that my camera body just isn't holding up like it used to.
I'm hoping to make the switch to mirrorless but am a little overwhelmed with the amount of information out there. I'm not sure if full frame or crop sensor is the way to go - I'd like to focus more on concert and theater photography over sports at the moment, but know that shooting sports is always a fun hobby for me. I'm trying to stay under $1800 and invest in the lens mount adapter until I'm able to upgrade my lenses. At the moment, I'm leaning towards the R7 for cost purposes but I certainly need something that's good for low light and has great focus/tracking.
Any suggestions or additional information are welcome and appreciated!
