[QUOTE="DaveW, post: 60565, member: 7183"] Just a thought about your earlier post when you say you want a camera you will be satisfied with? Personally I think you will be satisfied with any camera in the range, from the bottom to top. Look up a chap called RoshArt who can be found on facebook. He uses the D3100, kit lens, and a couple of primes. I think he also uses Lightroom to tweak his stuff. A Pro who does weddings will have camera's that are from the D7000 onwards, with only a few who still use the D90. That is more based on higher price = reliability, durability, looking the part etc. The same as a private hire car driver would not use a bottom of the range Ford but rather a Mercedes even though they could both do the same job. Having said that, a Pro friend of mine who works for a top Photographers in London, still uses his D3100 most of the time. Here, the perception works in reverse, as in because he is a well known and respected Photographer, nobody looks to see what he is using, whereby normally the public only think you must be good if you use a camera that is out of their price bracket. That is human nature - they still think the camera takes the photo's, not the person behind it. Personally, I love my D90. Even pushed to beyond 3200 ISO it still takes good shots unless you blow them up to a size you never would normally. And if you have a fast prime on board you may never need to push it that far.
