[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 458678, member: 24285"] You want the best camera with a built in motor for the funds available. Consider local trading sites like Kijiji. As for your comment about no "D" on your AF Nikkors. Apparently the "D" is nice but not that necessary. From what I've gleaned from my readings on this is that it helps with flash metering. When shooting with a flash you may want to be checking your images until you make the manual adjustments to the flash our your exposure compensation to get the image right. And if you shoot RAW and you'll have a better chance to recover any exposure errors afterwards. I have a few vintage, legacy or just plain old lenses that I still use. Some I like better than others. Modern DSLR's can give a new lease on life for old glass. Some of those old lenses have lots of life left in them. It was not that long ago that they were the desire of some photographer's eye in a shop window - just a decade or so ago. (the older I get the more i like to measure time in decades). [/QUOTE]
