[QUOTE="SteveL54, post: 400174, member: 17080"] Finally decided to pull the trigger on a D7100. I was between the 7100 with the 18-140 or the 7100 body with a Tokina 11-16. I was in and out on Friday and Saturday with no time, so Sunday am I sit down at the computer with a fresh cup of coffee and an empty credit card, ready to go. Price on Friday for the body was $896...Whoa - today it's $996. +$100 Body and 18-140 was $1196 Friday - Up to $1296 . Crap. Up $100 to me is significant (8.5% increase) So, ok, I'll have a look at that Tokina lens. I can use it on my D5100 until I get the 7100. Friday it was $429. Sunday it was $499. Increase of 16% I figured (wrongly) that the announcement for the 5500 and 7200 was coming this weekend, and there would be a price drop to move the stock. Sure, the 5500 is going to ship. The 7200 looks like early fall 2015. So I'm playing the waiting game....... [/QUOTE]
