[QUOTE="Woodyg3, post: 677331, member: 24569"] I agree that there is a bit of hysteria for some, and there will always be fan boys who have to feel that their equipment is ten times better than anyone else's. I choose not to "get my knickers in a knot" about those people, either. :) A few months ago I was talking to a guy who was a long time photographer who had quit for a while, but was getting back into it and wanted to pursue wildlife shooting. He had a Nikon D7100, and lamented the "fact" that he would have to sell that and all his lenses and get a new Sony mirrorless system. A fellow wildlife photographer and I assured him that his D7100 would be fine, and that if he wanted upgrades a lens and maybe a D500 would, in the end, cost less and work out quite well for wildlife. He listened, but we could tell that "the Internet" must be right on this, and that Sony mirrorless was the only way to go. He almost seemed to think there was no real reason to try shooting wildlife with his Nikon, it just wouldn't work in his mind. I wish I could have shown him some pictures I took with my "ancient" 6 MP D70. :) Well, people are free to spend their money any way they want. I really hope the new Nikons are amazing cameras.
