[QUOTE="Ripeart, post: 35245, member: 7916"] When you put your camera in your bag, let's say until the next session, how far do you break it down? Do you remove the lens and cover the lens mount? Are you removing the rubber viewfinder... piece? How about when you remove your external flash, do you replace the little shoe cover? Do you remove your tripod mount? Just curious to know what level of care is common. I use a D5100. I have a lot to learn however I predict I'll outgrow, possibly as soon as a year or so. If that time were now, I may upgrade to a D300 however who knows what will be available or a bargain in a year's time. In between now and then I know I'll buy a few more lenses, however I don't want to have to buy these all over again when I upgrade my camera body! So, the D5100 has no AF motor, so by extension is it safe to assume my lenses do? (Check sig for equipment list) What do you think my best bet is purchasing lenses and knowing I will be upgrading later? Why would one want to upgrade to format larger than DX? Thanks in advance for your insights. [/QUOTE]
