My next upgrade


Every single DSLR bodies of the last generation (except D7000 & D300s) were replaced this year, with the introduction of D600 as an enthusiast FX camera slots right in between D800 & D7000 (or D300s), Nikon is like having a camera diahorrea.
 

Actually, it is probably the genre you are in. From your flickr, you are more into portraits I see. But for people like birders, wildlife, as well as sports, having remote control can be a godsend. This is apart from the usual wedding/event photographers.

Yeah I guess it is. :embrass:
 

d3100 to d5200...
i dunno abt tat, go feel the bodies
i think d7k is a better buy

I think too, D5200 does not have built in motor, so lesser choice of lens. Lens like 50mm 1.8D can produce great images, and cheaper, and other AF lenses are superb .Other choices are Tokina 100mm f2.8, Tamron 18-200mm, etc.
 

I will probably endure and wait for D7000/D300/D300s replacement and spend the money on lenses... If cannot endure, I will choose D5200.

True....endure abit. Definitely better choice.

unlike you i am upgrading from the D90, but like you i had to choose D7000 vs D5200.

after reading this
Nikon D5200 vs D7000: which camera is best for you? | N-Photo

i think i will pick the D7000, i did try out the D5200, it kinda felt lightweight... but in view of an upgrade of D7000 i might wait abit.....

From D90 to D5200? That's not really upgrading for me....
Sav ur money for D7000 or wait for its replacement, if u have more money to spare the D600.
 

Thanks all for the opinion...
I'll wait for 2-3 more months but likely to go for D5200 plus an ultra-wide lens.

even though D5200 has a better specs (esp. megapixels), u r upgrading from an entry level to another almost entry level dslr...ikt's quite pointless i tink. i won't upgrade if i were u, better wait for the D7000 or D300s replacement (if there is).
