[QUOTE="GLXMAN, post: 1539782, member: 259477"] [b]My 2c worth[/b] Hi There, There are really no bad DSLR's now days Good glass lasts almost forever, cameras come and go, bit like a PC really, soon as you get it out the door, a new model is out already For the camera body choice, some considerations have to be made, There are basically 2 choices of bodies, there are others but these 2 will get you started FX and DX In general, the FX will produce less noise and give you a "true" wide angle, 14mm is 14mm Where as the DX body usually produces more noise at higher ISO but has more "reach" For example, with D7100 or D300s, using a 300mm camera, your sensor, being smaller than the FX sensor, will crop the lens and give you an effective 450mm, (good for wildlife) The trade off being 14mm is really not 14mm any more but in fact 21mm (focal length X 1.5) This is for Nikon, Canon is a little different lastly, if your looking for the best detail for landscape, the Nikon D800 would be my choice, Trade off is those 36mp images produce huge files so storage is a consideration ....Gary Me_D700 and a bunch of lenses, D800 in the new year [/QUOTE]
