Hey guys,
I'm a newer shooter that just sold his D7000. It was a great camera to learn on but I yearned for the improved sensor and better low light performance of newer models.
My current lenses:
- Tokina 11-16 2.8 UWA
- 35 1.8g DX
- 50 1.8G fx
- 60 2.8D
- 70-300 VR II
My options are:
a) Sell my Tokina / Nikon 35mm DX lenses: Buy D610 and primarily use 50mm / 60mm (the 35mm 1.8 / 60mm 2.8 macro are my most used lenses - 50mm would take it's place)
b) Keep DX Lenses / Buy D7100
The D7100 looks like a fantastically sharp camera without the AA and superior focusing system. BUT the D610's low light performance seems outstanding in retrospect.
What would you do in my position? Having gone from DX to FX, was it worth it entirely? Would you go back in time and swap?
Low light performance (candid family shots, chasing kids around the house, etc) and small product shots (shaving brush / razor / soap) are my main targets. I also do portraits and landscapes here and there.
I really am leaning towards the D610 but I can't find buyers for my lenses
