[QUOTE="GSXR_Rider, post: 465326, member: 27302"] Long story short I'm not new to Nikon as a brand having just come from a D3200 that was replaced under my BestBuy GeekSquad warranty. If you're interested in reading my thread on that I'll provide the link at the end of this post. I picked up a D5300 today over the D5200 which I had also been considering. After speaking to a local camera store about the D5200 I walked away simply feeling put off from the D5200, though I'm sure it is just as good a camera. One of the staff members mentioned that it (D5200) was discontinued and that they sold them for $125 for just a body "all day long". That said, this camera shop has staff which are knowledgeable as well as reputable. Anyways my questions about the D5300 are as follows: 1. I have been hearing complaints about front focusing and back focusing issues with the D5300, can anyone elaborate on what this issue is exactly? 2. How can I test or detect front focus or back focus issues, is this just based upon how I feel the image looks? 3. Any major complaints with the D5300? (As far as I know most Nikon's tend to be a safe bet and you really can't go wrong with what you choose) 4. How many actually purchase an extended warranty package (Geeksquad or other)? Those are all my questions for now, hopefully some of you can provide me with insight, I appreciate any and all the help you guys can offer!
