looking for a camera that is right for me

[ginger1]

i want a canera that has good video mode and auto-focus on moving subjects like pets for my YouTube channel. i currently have a canon eos 4000D and you have to manually focus it in video mode. i also want a camera that takes good landscape photos. my budget is $500. thank you so much

What lenses do you have?

An R100 is well within your budget, but it would be better to stretch and get the R50.

i have the 18-55 lens that came with the camera and a 55-250 efs image stabilizer lens

thank you! ill look into those! my friend recommended a r7 mark ii but i wanted to see what other people's thoughts were.

There is no R7 Mk II, it has not been released or even announced yet.

[ginger1]

okay so i wasnt going crazy! I'll have to see what camera he meant. again, thank you so much for your help!

[ginger1]

he meant 7d mark ii. sorry for the confusion

ginger1,

Right now, you can get a used R100 with an RF 18-45 and an RF 55-210 lenses through Canon for $599.

Not a bad deal, I think.

The R100 is good for a budget model but it may miss out some features you need.It has a fixed screen that cant be rotated for selfie video.Will that be an issue? It's also not a touch screen.
If you want those features the next model up -the R50- has those.

yeah i was talking to my friend and he said that if i were to get a mirrorless, get the r50 but another option is the 80d since i have a dslr and i wouldn't have to buy new lenses so im going to research about them for a few weeks before i make my decision. tysm!
