[QUOTE="Vincent, post: 572638, member: 15675"] Is it still, mind blowing? So I was trying to look at my set up. I have lenses from 11mm to 300mm and then still a 500m and 600mm. I can do better on lenses, but what I have suits my current usage. My main camera is still the D7000, it performs better then most will admit. When it gets difficult I go to the Sony A7S, also a super performer, but a limit on AF performance. (I do love the manual use with old lenses on Art projects) I was looking at the D500 and D5 to complement my set-up once I get budget again (this will only be May 2018) after blowing an advance on the 600mm lens + laptop. The goal is to have some AF for early and late wildlife shoots, the D7000 lacks ISO performance and the A7s AF, second goal to improve AF on BIF. Clearly the Multi-Cam 20k AF is what I want, but I`m not convinced about the D500 ISO performance and the D5 will probably will remain expensive too long. Conclusion, the D4 will be possible earlier and the AF should be sufficient for the high ISO shots I go after. It should leave budget for a D500 follow up soon enough after. As lens a 300mm PF is somewhere in between with some budget left for some other purchases. Since this is the first pro body I will have, it will be an unbelievable experience. How mind blowing will it be though? (compared to a body with group area AF) [/QUOTE]
