[QUOTE="eal1, post: 341727, member: 8642"] This is a personal choice and i selected the 610. Two weeks after purchasing it, i took it to France along with two lenses for two full weeks of sightseeing. I found the weight of the camera to be a non-issue, using the 24-85 kit lens along with a 50mm lens. A week after returning to NY, my wife and i travelled to Arizona and again i took the 610 along with a rented 16-35/f4, and my 24-85. When i went hiking, i took the ultra-wide and the kit lens. The camera was not a problem, indeed, it felt just right to me. I had considered mirrorless cameras, including the Olympus, Sony and Fuji. I think i made the right choice FOR ME at this time. You will just need to figure this one out in relation to your needs and desires. IF you want the best image quality, go for Nikon with high quality lenses. Regardless, cameras have gotten so good now. I am amazed at the 610's quality and how the images remind me of film. They have a feel and depth to them that i cannot explain other than to say i am very satisfied with what i have done - despite real weaknesses in my knowledge and technique! good luck. [/QUOTE]
