[QUOTE="mikew_RIP, post: 684311, member: 14174"] Decided to buy a DSLR and lens, after much checking it looks like Nikon are the only ones to make proper DSLRs :D Thinking what to do, the D500 is out of the question on price,the D7500 is out of the question for other reasons as well as how close the price is to other cameras. Outfit 1 ime looking at Nikon D750,Sigma100-400 and 1.4 TC, i actually have the D750 on trial at the moment its secondhand with just over 12,000 clicks so just run in,my LCS didnt have any secondhand 100-400 so just for testing reach i took an old 120-400 and 1.4TC. Outfit 2 is a New D7200 with the same sigma lens and converter, i know i would have more reach with the D7200. I moved away from Nikon as i struggled to carry the weight but now most of my jaunts are on a mobility scooter so ime not carrying the camera as such,i tried a 150-600 in the shop but found the extended weight a problem for holding any length of time, so thats out. Chasing small birds doesnt happen as much now so its larger birds mostly in flight or smaller birds in flight as they will often fly closer than they will perch, the 10 f8 compatable focus points on the D750 make it better than the 1 center point on the D7200,if i did need reach the 100-400 and TC will work on my V2 and i will still have the m4/3 gear where my 75-300 gives a FOV = to 150-600. Reading this its looking like the D750 but i will listen to any points i have missed. [/QUOTE]
