Which camera to get for my wife?

This appeared to be a rather easy task but now I am looking at dozens and dozens of camera's on ebay and local version in netherlands.......this is driving me a bit crazy.

I am now sorry as h3ll I sold my pristine 50D when I bought a 6D as that would have been a great camera for her to start her hobby.
Any way, am looking at second hand 50D's, have no interest in the Rebel series.

Should I get a 50D or 60D? I am a bit worried that the 60D does not have micro adjustment for lenses though. Budget would be about 500 euro ($650) for used camera body alone.

Need some advice what camera to get her? Used 50D or even new 60D or wait for the 70D(?) or anything else I am just overlooking?

have a look at this place it may help you out, you will have to ring them and see if they ship to you.

Buy what you want and tell her it is for her to have. That way, you get a cool toy and the wife is happy because you were thinking of her. I tried this plan and it worked with a gently used 5d "for my wife"

Yeah Old Coot, thanks for the "evil" idea! I will go out and get me...uuuhhumm her a 5D3 and tell her "honey, I only want the best there is available for you", and "oohh would you like a 300mm F2.8 to go with that?"

With your budget, there are some nice cameras available. Since this purchase is for the wife, have you thought about one of the smaller body "Rebel" series?

Well, I mentioned that I was not interested in the Rebel series. However I am now wondering if buying the new Eos700 (Rebel T5i) is maybe a better option then a used 50D/60D? After all, it's the latest version of the Rebel compared to an already 4 year old model.

If you're going to consider the "Rebels" I suggest that you disregard the 700D and go with the 650D as there is hardly any difference in the camera and it will save you some money.
