[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 301532, member: 13090"] I really appreciate the mirrorless format but this doesn't sound like the best option to me. As PapaST points out, you're talking about adopting an entirely new format and the main advantage, on a practical level, seems to be the smaller form factor. The mirrorless format has some "neato" stuff going for it, like the higher continuous frame-rate, but the format really doesn't offer features I actually USE, so again I come back to the smaller form-factor which IS pretty attractive. Still, it's not justification in my mind for the increased cost, both initially and over the long haul. If I was in your position I think I'd be giving serious consideration something like a D5300 body and a 35mm f/1.8G. Right now, that's looking like a pretty powerful Nikon combo, possibly the "sweet spot". Not too far behind that combination would be a D3300 with the same lens. [COLOR=#ffffff]...[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
