[QUOTE="skene, post: 447961, member: 13155"] Basically, here is my take on the situation of your dilemma. You speak to people in the store, they will tell you what they would shoot with. You, don't know ISO from Auto on a DSLR. You take to internet to get opinion, (refer back to store). Get same answer, refer back to internet. You, end up with an expensive piece of equipment that you will never use. If this is the scenario, you are going for... then say what your experience with any SLR would be. Whether or not you understand the workings, and are willing to invest some time in learning how to compose and process the images. A camera regardless of make, model or megapixel will do the same thing. So imagine a real mechanic posed with a problem on a vehicle. Would you rather deal with a person that rationally repair the problem based on the issue at hand and be able to work around and diagnose to the root of the problem, or deal with the person that replaces everything (costly repairs) until they get to the problem. Same idea. If you have no idea what you are doing, the latest or better tool (FX/Full frame vs DX/APS body sensor/Full frame glass vs DX glass) will not make you an experienced or better shooter. If you are going to try and maximize your purchase, go for the D7XXX and more glass vs a harder stretch of D6XX and one lens. Greater options yield better rewards. Think about that when you are making your purchase. [/QUOTE]
