Alright so I have been debating this for weeks and need some help to decide on what to do here.

Lately I have been feeling as though I don't use my 7D enough. I often fall back to my 60D and the 7D just sits in the bag. Don't get me wrong I love the camera, but it was an impulse buy and I feel like I really have no need for it.

I am the sports shooter for my school paper and we shoot with all of our own gear. I have been able to do more than enough before my 7D with just the 60D and I think that this would be an opportunity for me to upgrade some glass.

Heres the option I keep thinking about:
- Sell the 7D
- Sell my trusty Sigma 70-200
- Use that money to buy a Tamron 70-200 VC
- If need second body, pick up a used 60D and have 2 60D's

Or I keep what I have now and deal with what I got.

I am a college guy just trying to get the best possible photo's but also a senior and I'm not sure where I will go with my photography after this year is up.

What do you guys think?

Thanks for your help,

Drew

why not sell the 60D? the 7D is clearly the better camera for sports...and then you're forced to use it :)
