[QUOTE="dh photography, post: 336046, member: 25354"] Thank again for the guidance!! Geoff - Here's my real dilemma (or at least the one that is continually banging around in my head); I can afford to get a 7100 body. Used is going to run me about $825-850. If I do go that route, I am extremely limited in any lens purchase for me to even use on that body. Certainly wouldn't be getting anything very nice to use. If I went he route of the 300 or even the 5300; I would have enough for a really nice piece of glass as well. Since the misses does not frequently have the need to take a whole kit for pictures, I'll plan on having access to the kit lenses about 95% of the time. I'm thinking I could then add either a Sigma 150-500 zoom, or a 70-300 and 35 Nikon. I guess my question is this: am I giving up a tremendous amount between the two; enough to warrant needing to save for a few more months to buy a decent lens to use? [/QUOTE]
