[QUOTE="SteveH, post: 378437, member: 9252"] I went from a D3100 to a D7100, which was a worthy upgrade, BUT I can echo what people have said about glass - If I had the money at the time, I would have upgraded lenses at the same time. My 8-16mm & 35mm lenses are my most often used now, with the 55-300mm next in line for replacement. The 18-55 just doesn't get used - I get MUCH better results by using the 35mm and "Manual zoom". The 55-300mm shows it's softness on the D7100, so that is going to be replaced by a Sigma 70-200 in the next few months. Having said that, the D7100 is awesome and something that hasn't been mentioned yet really, is the inspiration a new camera gives you to go out and take shots that previously you wouldn't have... Why not get a couple of better lenses, and then later upgrade the body at a later date. [/QUOTE]
