Firstly apologies if this has already been asked and answered before. I have looked for it but couldn't find it anywhere and are new to the forum.
99.9% of my photo's are taken in indoor conditions at live rock concerts. Lighting can be from great to poor dependent on venue etc.
I'm wanting to move up from my 2 Olympus digi compacts to an SLR which is easy to work with. Never had any pro training and learning as I go. Female with quite small hands so don't want something huge, heavy and bulky to lug about.
My friend has a Canon 20D SLR which she swears is gods gift to camera's, however another friend with another entry level Canon SLR is still struggling to get to terms with it after 10 months.
My two compact digi's are both Olympus - C720 & C7000, although I find I migrate back to the C720 as it's easier to control the settings. I confess I have little patience with fiddling on with control settings ... at least I am honest about this! ... so anything that's going to need 20 clicks just to set it up for one shot is not going to be ideal for me.
Am I a lost cause before I start or can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance for all and any assistance given on this matter.
