I'm looking to upgrade my camera and would appreciate some advice.

Currently have a 350d (which is giving error messages) and a 300d. Lenses are: Sigma 135-400 APO f4.5, Sigma 18-50 f2.8, Canon 75-300 ultra-sonic and Canon 18-55 "kit" lens.

I'm no expert, but have been using SLRs for long time. I have a safari trip planed in October so will be using it for that.

I want to buy used, and budget is £3-400. I just can't decide on 650d,60d,6d,700d,7d.... I'm not up on spec enough to know what's what, and whether I'd be buying features I just don't need.

Help!

Seems like you've got a bit of overlap on the lenses, I'd raise a few more beans by selling the kit lens and 75-300 and get a Canon 70D.
Yep, Sigma lenses acquired more recently. Not a bad idea though.

Still seeking advice for this! To narrow down options - 700d or 60d??

No chance of the 70D being an option?
'fraid not - just a bit too much ££...

6D or 7D for £3-400?
I've heard the 7D is a bit past it now - is that fair?
