Hello everyone,
I am composer, and music producer, I work in my own music studio, so photography is my hobby.
About 15 years a go I spent a lot of money to buy "the best" studio monitors, microphones, cables, sound cards, computer, and all other famos outboard just to realize that great results depends of me and my skills, not of my gear.
Then, I sold almost all of my expensive gear, bought only essential stuff, and I am cured now and really happy with my self, and my results.
Now I can pass by any music store and not waste the whole next week searching on the internet what to buy, but now I have that problem with photo equipment.
I have D3100, and I desperately want D7000. I have no real reason, just want better camera. I do not need better resolution, nor faster continuous shooting, maybe just autofocus motor to use it with some cheap primes, also that camera is larger than D3100 so it better suits to my hands, other than that nothing of real importance to me.
Yes, all those great things that comes with D7000 sounds good, and I want them, but do I really need it to make great photos.
I would like your subjective opinion, do I really need something better than D3100 to make great photos, or it is the same as with my music studio gear?
You can see my point of interest...
