[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 147740, member: 3903"] The only benefit is for either someone who had older AF lenses and wanted to keep using them with auto-focus or for someone looking for bargain lenses on the used market. There are a lot of pre-owned AF lenses that you can buy for a fraction of the price of new AF-S lenses. So that covers the difference between AF and Af-S lenses, but you know there are many other differences between a D600 and a D5200. High iso performance being one of the most important one, plus the handling. D90, 7000, 7100, 700, 600 and 800 are more "button oriented" for normal setting change where the 5200 is more menu driven. This means that once you've learned where the buttons are, you can change settings without taking your eyes away from the viewfinder. That's what "prosumer" bodies are for. [/QUOTE]
