Sorry for cross posting- also posted in the canon corner thread, but haven't got any replies yet.
Hi, I am relatively new to underwater photography (so pardon if any of this is dumb) and have been mainly using a Canon powershot with Canon WP-DC24 underwater housing.
I now would like to upgrade to something better and have been considering making the move to a dslr. Ideally i'd like to get something that would allow me to do some pro shots/video and possibly get paid for it!
Ideally the new camera would take:
HD video
Regular distance shots
Close-up macro shots
I think I have narrowed my search down to the Canon T3i and the Canon VIXIA HF G10. Ive read that the T3i doesnt have an autofocus in video mode, which makes taking video tough.
My question is if the T3i will do it all or would I be better off getting the dslr for photos, and when the bank account recovers, get the HD video camera. This is going to be expensive isn't it...
Thanks in advance!!!
