[QUOTE="aroy, post: 337508, member: 16090"] No equipment is worth being ashamed of, if it serves its purpose, and gives good results. I started with a Russian SLR bought for $50 and it served me well. I took a lot of shots during marriages of our relatives. When my son bought an N70, it was an upgrade, but I stuck to my Zenit. Then he upgraded to D70 and later D300. By that time cell phones were there with 2MP cameras. That served me well. Now I have a Nokia with 5MP, and I have shot thousands of images with the cell phone, mostly for professional use. Now that I am more or less retired, I wanted a DSLR of my own. So I got the D3300 this March. Why? because it is the lightest 24MP DSLR with a good lense. I did not need the gizmos of the D5xxx or the D7xxx series, just a good basic camera. Lot of people confuse equipment with excellence, forgetting that it is fellow using the equipment who matters. Some feel that unless they sport the top-of-the-range camera with an arm long zoom, their images will not be upto the standard. They forget that most professionals, at least in India, are still using their D90's for weddings and events. No one is going to object as long as the images are first rate. [/QUOTE]
