Ooook, so I have a D5100 and feel I've outgrown it already. I should have bought the 7000 when I had the chance, but alas, I didn't and now regret it. So now, I'm ready for another upgrade in fall or possibly sooner.
I'm waiting for the new lineup to release but still am on the fence about DX and FX. I shoot landscapes, architecture mainly. Also random stuff of other things. So, I guess my question is basically,
1: what do I gain by going FX?
2: How much more expensive is FX glass? (I only require 2 lenses. If I stayed on DX, I would have bought the Tokina 11-16 and Nikkor 18-200 and love my 35mm 1.8 for low light. May be inheriting a 28mm 1.8d soon as well which may well replace the 35mm)
I'm curious about the new rumored d300 replacement as well as the new d600, but definitely want a camera that's above my ability so I can grown INTO it. That was my issue with the 5100. Nice camera, but just didn't have all the dedicated buttons, large viewfinder, focus motor, etc that I really didn't think I needed in the beginning but now do. What do you think I should do? I should mention I no longer am looking at the D7000 because it will be old tech by the time the new lineup comes out more than likely.. I really don't mind spending the money, but don't have like, 5k to spend haha!
