[QUOTE="ssjsushil, post: 486331, member: 40471"] Hi all, I'm new to photography and enthusiastic to learn and explore further in this field. I'm looking to buy my first DSLR and with a little research, I came up with Nikon D5300 DSLR. On Amazon, I saw the below deal: 1) Nikon D5300 with 18-140mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR AF-S DX NIKKOR Zoom Lens - (Price = $946.95) 2) Nikon D5300 with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II AF-S DX NIKKOR Zoom Lens & 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR AF-S DX Nikkor Zoom Lens - (Price = $996.90) Both the deals include a camera bag and an SD card. Now I'm confused if it is worth spending $50 extra for the extra range upto 300mm. I don't mind spending an extra $50, but i'm wondering if I should save this $50 to invest on a prime lens (Nikon 50mm f/1.8G AF-S FX Lens or Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX Lens). Also after an year or so, I'm considering to upgrade this D5300 to D7200 (From my research, I came to understand that D7200 is way better than D5300. But firstly I want to learn on D5300). When I upgrade, will 18-55mm / 18-140mm / 55-300mm be compatable with D7200 (I mean in the sense of Auto focus and the photography results). Please advise. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
