Canon EOS 3

I upgraded from the EOS 650 to the EOS Elan 7E. Both are affordable sub-$100 cameras. The 7E, aside from a host of useful features, has the advantage of being 10 years newer and so in better condition.

The 7E has one of the most quiet film advances. I've also been pleased with the weather sealing (not an advertised feature of the camera), having taken it out with weather sealed lenses in the rain many times without issue.

It's also lighter than the more "pro" cameras in this line. It's been compatible with every 3rd party lens I've tried (2 sigmas and 2 tamrons).

I've had trouble engaging back button auto-focus with some of the newer EF mount Sigma lenses on my 7E. May be just my copy of course.

Sorry, you had to do what?

The dreaded BC error this camera is known for.
