NEVER buy on Credit!!
Save until you have the Cash on hand,
THEN Buy (IF you are convinced the expenditure is WORTH IT !)

AND - - SELL your OLD equipment to offset the cost !

Haven't been able to get there yet. But it's AWESOME advice. Us old time photogs, at least me, somehow feel our old EXPENSIVE stuff is still a money maker. Bur I know if I FOUND my old stuff I could buy a D700

Oh. I haven't had that problem. (of course, anything I get, that I did not sign up for, gets immediately directed into my spam folder. It eventually stops coming.

I read once about a comment by Ansel Adams saying it's not the camera, it's in the eye of the photographer. Ansel took amazing photos with a "brownie" type camera. I am sure you could do the same.
Also, get an older DSLR. I am a Canon guy, any you can get a Tsi, T3i or an equal Nikon for a couple hundred with a lense. Check out B&H or you local camera store. I have several digital, the latest being a Canon 80D, and several film cameras which i wiil not part with.
If you have older Nikon cameras, I think the lenses will work with the newer digital cameras.
Hope this helps out a little. I have found that going to a local camera store will be a wealth of info and people are more than willing to share info.

Merlin is right, I have done it myself and found that I am saving money. By selling off old equipment I not using money that in the bank. I using money that is all ready spend, just recycling it. No question do your homework before buying a camera.

It’s not the equipment, it’s the photographer. Remind yourself that what you want is rarely the same as what you need. Best of all, no one will care what camera you used if the images turn out well.
