[QUOTE="RocketCowboy, post: 320569, member: 25095"] I do think the D5300 is the right camera for me for awhile still while I learn more of the basics. Most of the reasons why I was thinking I made the wrong choice was the emotional response to some of the 5300s features not working as I'd expected (the GPS part of pretty useless, and I'm not taking advantage of the Wifi capability at all), plus thinking I really needed the AF servo in the camera body to position myself to be able to leverage FX glass. Having had some time to just speak the debate out loud, I don't think I'm hindering myself by not having a 7100 today ... and so when the time comes to add a new camera body I may have something more later/greater that I can jump on if it fits. But yeah, since none of my old 35mm film glass is worth anything on my DSLR, I can't see doing anything other than AF-S "G" series lenses, which why I'm wanting to validate whether I lose anything with a DX body and FX (or just non-DX) glass.
