Hi all,
I've been shooting with a D5100 for a couple of years now and very pleased with it. Ive taken some great shots however having recently had a play with a d3300 I was amazed by the high iso performance and lack of noise on longer exposures even with NR disabled. I do a lot of low light, night and long exposure photography at iso 800+.
Lens wise I mostly use the sigma 17-70 f2.8-4 contemporary or the Nikon 35mm f1.8.
I've played with the d5300, d5500 and d7200. Of them I found the 7200 too large, I'm not that big. I found the 5500 touch screen to be a nice extra over the 5300 and something I would find useful. I don't need gps although the wifi could be useful.
So basically I'm looking for improvements in noise reduction. Is the improvement from d5100 to d5500 worth the upgrade? I could probably sell my 5100 to cover up to half the cost.
Thanks
