[QUOTE="RocketCowboy, post: 522242, member: 25095"] I'm a big fan of the D610 personally (I like it better than the D750 for me), but when you combine "long lenses" and "wildlife" in the same statement my first thought is DX body. The D610 is certainly cheaper than the D500 at this point, so while the D500 is improving in the low light capabilities over previous DX bodies, the D610 can be had for less. But ... if you're needing the reach of a DX sensor combined with long lenses, you might prefer the D500 more than cropping the same images off the D610. I would contemplate whether a single trip to Africa is enough to justify a new camera purchase (vs renting a more appropriate body if needed), and look at what suits the rest of your shooting needs before deciding on that one. Then again, I tend to over-analyze and then make impulsive purchase decisions anyway, so I may not be the best advise guy. :D [/QUOTE]
