[QUOTE="rangioran, post: 391703, member: 35523"] Hi to everyone, I live in North Shropshire, UK. After getting my first SLR (Zenit B) back in 1964 I've had quite a few different units over the ensuing years (including my only previous Nikon SLR, a EM in 1980) only to switch to compact travel cameras around five years back when I was travelling a lot and lugging a DSLR around was becoming a pain. Anyhow, my son James (Pro photographer [URL="http://www.dlscape.com"]www.dlscape.com[/URL]) got me interested in getting a new DSLR when we visited him in Queensland in October so I bought a D5300. Nice camera but a pain having to go into the menu for pretty much everything so a couple of weeks back got the D7100. James reckons I should have waited for it's successor, which is rumoured to be 'just around the corner', and for him that would be a good strategy, however, at 66 I ain't waiting for anything!
