[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 326010, member: 13090"] I shoot with a D7100 and recently upgraded my girlfriend to a D5300. Having shot both a good amount, I can tell you there are a few little things on my D7100 that I would miss if using the D5300. That being said, the D5300 is nothing short of amazing. Nothing. I might go so far out on the proverbial limb as to say the D5300 hits the "sweet spot" on the Price vs. Performance spectrum for the Nikon DX line. Now, those are some pretty tough words, but I think I could make a pretty good argument. The D7100 is everything the D5300 is, and has some additional external controls and beefed up build quality that you may, or may not, want to pay for. It's definitely a superior camera in many respects, but the D5300 sports some newer technology... It also doesn't necessarily mean the D7100 is a better choice for you. Based on your few posts in this thread, I think I'd still suggest the D5300 with the 18-140mm for you; it's an outstanding combination that I think would meet your needs to a "T".
