If you just want to take better pictures than you are currently then the D3100 is a good choice. Where you want to go with your photography is a question you will need answer for yourself. If you want to go to the advanced amateur level then you should consider the D7000. (The D7000 is not a pro level camera). Going to the D7000 is a big step but you have been using the D50 for some time and are familiar with the Nikon features and functions system. With the D7000 you can start out using easy features and grow into the rest of them over time. If you do decide to go to the advanced amateur level, buy the best body you can afford with a kit lens, learn to use the Nikon digital functions and features and then go for the glass.</p></blockquote><p></p>
