Is it worth buying the Canon T5i for $599?

I've been interested in purchasing my first DSLR camera. I didn't want to start off with an entry-level camera which was why I chose this camera, also because it's a good deal. It's usually $929 in Canada, the features and image quality on this thing look pretty good. The only thing I don't like about it is that it's 18 megapixels and doesn't include wifi or bluetooth. I was also considering the Nikon D5300 which is 24 megapixels and includes wifi and bluetooth, but it's an extra $200. Other cameras I've considered were the Nikon D3400, D5600 and the Canon T7i. Professional photographers please help, thanks!

Creating a diy polymer lens filter for the solar eclipse and I want to make sure I'm not damaging my dslr light sensor

Question:
I was wondering if using this film would I need to use a certain f/stop or ISO to ensure the sensor is not damaged while shooting. Would simply using this film would prevent this from happening?

Details:
Recently bought a Nikon D3300, this would be my first time owning a DSLR. I have taken classes during high school and I know how to use and take care of a camera (no concern there).

There's a solar eclipse happening this weekend and I want to be able to take images of the event. I understand that you can damage the light sensor inside the camera if pointed directly at the sun. I have seen lens that you can use and apply, but unfortunately would not deliver in time for my trip ( poor planing/ buying the camera was unexpected and not originally intended for this). My friend purchased this polymer film (he gave me the link below) that is suppose to be used for telescopes and was kind enough to give me some.

This would be my first time attempting to take pictures of the sun and would like to preserve the quality of this camera to the best of my ability.

I'm typically resourceful when researching this information online but l was unable to find specifics to ease my concern. Any personal experience / feedback would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

Polymer for diy solar eclipse filter?

Recently bought a Nikon d3300 to get back into photography (took classes in hs but never owned my own camera, I know how to work and take care of a DSLR). There's a solar eclipse this weekend and I purchased a polymer sheet to create a filter (link below). I wanted to make sure that I'm not damaging the light sensor inside the camera. Would having the f/ stop or ISO higher/ wider appature cause damage even with using this filter?

I typically do not ask questions because most the time there would be a comprehensive article regarding this, but I was unable to locate this information online. Also, me owning my first dslr /would be my first attempt at taking photos of the sun I would like to persevere the quality of this camera as long as possible. Any feedback/ personal experience would be great and thank you for helping me in advance!

70-200 2.8 on aps-c (Nikon)?

Is 70-200 f2.8 too long of a lens for outdoor potraits?

I'm currently looking for a lens for my crop sensor nikon body to get a "dreamy" potrait (lots of blur)

I already own the nikon 35mm 1.8 and sigma 17-50 2.8
both these lens are not giving me the dreamy look i'm looking for.

Is the 70-200 a useful focal range for asp-c sensor? Or is there other lens that could result in this "dreamy" look i'm looking for?

I will primary shoot half body but I wouldn't mind doing head shot and full body

How do I take pictures like this?

I'm new to photography. What is the best way to take pictures like this (time of day, camera settings etc.)?

As you can see it's heavily edited but you can still see the original picture through the editing. I only have a Nikon D5100, and adobe Photoshop to work with.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

70-200mm 2.8 on Crop Sensor?

How useful is the 70-200mm 2.8 on a crop sensor? (nikon)

I will be mostly using this lens for potraits (3/4 shot and full body not much headshots) and a little bit of concert photography.

I'm open to other lens suggestion. I'm also interested in the 85mm 1.4 as i heard it is a better portrait lens (3/4 and full body shot)

Why do my pictures look bad on my laptop screen but they look great on my cameras display?

So I got a Nikon D3100 with a 55-300MM lens. When I take a picture, it looks amazing on the display. But when I go to import them on my laptop, they don't look as good as they look on the display. I don't know why and I'm hoping that there's a fix because it really makes me feel down when taking photos knowing that they won't look good on the laptop. If there's any information that you want/need to know like camera settings that could affect this, I would be happy to reply
