[QUOTE="Rick M, post: 134233, member: 4399"] [b]Re: 5200 kit vs. 7000[/b] It's a hard call between those two bodies. New sensor of the D5200 or the better, pro like controls of the D7000. Not happy about your lens choices if you really want to get into portraits. Here's what I would do if I was on a real tight budget and needed it now: They are both excellent bodies which will last for years. Get the cheapest one with the 18-55 or 18-105 lens. The 50mm 1.8g is excellent on a dx body for portraites ($220 at BHphoto). If it means giving up the 18-105 to get the 50mm, it is worth the tradeoff, it will be one of the best lenses you ever own. Don't be affraid of good online retailers like BHphoto. It's more important you get the right combo. You may have to go to a different retailer or online to get the right combo. BHphoto online is excellent. [/QUOTE]
