[QUOTE="Elliot87, post: 347642, member: 25183"] I recently bought a D3200 and although I'm in no way disappointed with the camera itself, I wish I'd waited a little and gone for a new or refurbished D7100. If I'd have had the patience I would have a better body and would end up in two years with a set up that I would be more than happy with, rather than feeling the need to upgrade. You are also limited to the newer more expensive AF-S lenses with the D3*** and D5*** series, so if you're on a budget it makes getting new lenses much harder. Some of the older glass is much cheaper but still excellent quality. I know that in the medium to long run buying the cheaper body will cost me money and be a false economy. I find comfort though that by the time I am ready to upgrade to new body the D7100 will most likely have been superseeded by something better. [/QUOTE]
