[QUOTE="nickt, post: 682053, member: 4923"] I love my d7200, I got it when they first came out. After awhile I got itchy. I thought about full frame. I dismissed that fairly quickly. I like wildlife and macro and I couldn't come up with any reason to need full frame. I did think long and hard about a d500. In the end I bought a 2nd d7200. A refurb. I forget what I paid, but I got it on a good price dip. Now I have two d7200's with no regrets. One stays on my 150-600 full time. I had a 18-105. Eventually I upgraded to a 18-140. I enjoyed that for good while. It was nice to have that little extra reach and it made a good everyday lens. Similar image quality to the 18-105. Then I got itchy again. I picked up a Sigma 17-50, 2.8. I haven't touched the 18-140 since. I love the Sigma and I have learned to do without the extra reach. Its sharper and faster and it was a clear upgrade. So my 2 cents is go for the d7200 and consider a sharper/faster lens than the 18-140. Walking around with the 17-50, I don't find myself wishing for 140mm of zoom. In the range that 140mm would be useful, I can almost always get a little closer at 50mm and make up for the difference that 140 would have given me. [/QUOTE]
