[QUOTE="Pretzel, post: 456794, member: 12257"] Agreed, I think the line-up of entry/mid/advance for DX and FX is a nice presence, but they need to quit coming up with [I]partial[/I] upgrades with each model release, IMO. Change the build a bit so firmware can add or improve features, and make each upgrade a more significant improvement instead of just a "fix" for the problems with the last model (ref. D610 shutter, D7200 buffer, etc). I think the D750 was quite a nice release, just for the record... THEN, get a bit more competitive with the lenses. Start offering some price points that go after the 3rd parties a bit... you don't have to match their prices, but at least make it more competitive in the quality vs. cost ratio. When I'm considering a nice wide angle zoom, or a 105mm macro, there should be something out there that screams "spend a few extra bucks and get this superior lens" to me. All just IMO, of course, as the average consumer. Maybe you take a hit in the ol' pocket for a bit, but if you re-establish yourself as the brand "to be desired", the paybacks stretch out through the next generation and beyond. [/QUOTE]
