[QUOTE="aroy, post: 378155, member: 16090"] One option that you can consider, if most of your shots are going to be wide especially in low light, is to get a current full frame body. Then automatically the 24mm on FF has the same FOV as 16mm of DX and 16mm the same FOV as a 10mm on DX. Lenses cost a quite a bit, and good wide angles a lot of it. So in my opinion, look at the total lifetime cost of the body+lens while upgrading. Hanging on to a $300 body and spending thousands of dollars of lenses makes very little economic sense in today's digital world. With a newer body you get less noise at high ISO and in most cases more resolution, which translates to faster shooting in low light and ability to crop out more (or in another words make more sense of smaller objects). With FF body you can use the older AIS wide angles, some of which are at par or better than the current glass, except for AF. Good lenses will last the lifetime, while bodies keep upgradinf fast (between 1 and 5 years) [/QUOTE]
