So I took a trip to Seattle today to hit up a good camera shop (Glazer's). Anyways I was almost going to trade my 7100 and 17-50 Tamron for a D600 and the guy at the shop talked me out of it believe it or not. He said since I am planning on upgrading in January to a D810 that I should wait for that as the 7100 is a better camera then the 600. He said that I would be going from a semi pro grade build quality and focusing to a lesser build quality (magnesium vs composite) and no weather sealing on the 600, plus a worse focusing system. Maybe if it was a 610 I would have, but he didn't seem like a fan of the 600. Anyways so I ended up with a 50mm 1.8g and a Sigma 50-150 2.8, the Sigma was used and I got a good deal on it. I also got to check out the Tamron 70-200 2.8 vs. the Nikon, and damn that Tamron is a good lens. I fully feel that the build quality is defiantly good enough and it will probably be my next buy. Anyways, just thought you guys would find it amusing that a store would talk someone out of a sale.
