Greetings & Salutations Nikonites!
I've been a lurker for awhile but wanted to join to officially say thank you! This is a very nice site and with all the informational posts and discussions you've helped me decide on my new camera setup.
I've anxiously awaited for the Black Friday deals and as soon as they did I pulled the trigger on a new D750 setup with a couple extras. I haven't purchased a camera(Besides smartphones with built in) in over 10 years and I'm tired of having only half decent pics of my family and hobbies. I'll eventually pickup some more glass (35 1.4 & 70-200 2.8) but the kits 24-120 and separate 85 I got should suite my needs just fine for now.
I'll admit, I was very close to picking up a Sony or Fuji mirrorless, but couldn't commit due to dependability issues I've read about and warranty concerns. For an extra $170 my body is protected for 3 years through Nikon and the lens are for 5 so this alone is one of the biggest factors for my decision, let alone the others such as battery life and dependability.
Cheers,
Larry
