If you live in the Bay Area and like photography books then you should check out the Friends of the Library Book Sale which runs from Wednesday until Sunday. They generally have 6 to 8 tables stacked pretty high with photography books; Hardcovers are $3, softcovers are $2. Typically everything is $1 on the last day. They also have a million other books on pretty much every topic, so if you like books or have some other project/hobby it's definitely worth checking out.

Still not worth it. With $250 you could buy a used T2i, which is what the T5 is based on, except the T2i still has more features.

Coolwhoami posted:I had read about the t5/t5i before, but was having trouble determining what was overly bad about the t5 other than just a general lack of features and being slow. Any other specific complaints?

Bazanga posted:The lenses themselves seem pretty meh, as the lens I was borrowing from my Uncle had two focusing rings, one for macro and one for more fine-tuning. Not sure what the technical terms are, exactly. But neither of these lenses that came with the Canon have two focusing rings and I am having to rely on autofocus for closer shots, which I really dislike. I like having more control.

Unforgiven posted:She is strongly against buying a refurbished camera. I haven't bought a refurbished camera, but I've bought quite a few refurbished lenses from Canon and every single one was completely indistinguishable from a new lens except for the word 'refurbished' on the box, a sticker on the lens cap, and the lower price. Not a single scratch or piece of dust on them.

Shady shops are going to try and scare you into buying from them, but factory refurbished cameras carry the same warranty that new ones do, and when you consider that a refurbed T6i is only $600 vs $750 new, you're basically buying a new camera straight from the manufacturer at a really good discount.

Pretty much any DSLR is fine in light rain. Just try to protect them as much as you can while you aren't shooting. If you're worried you can stick them in a small plastic bag with the lens sticking out. If you go for the higher end cameras with weather sealing they can easily handle heavy rain, though they do caution that they are technically only weather sealed when used with weather sealed lenses.
