I see all the posts about lens swapping but my question is why would anyone purchase a NEW DX?
I know all digitals were DX at one time and there is still support and lenses.
But when FX cameras are available why buy a new DX today? I don't see any advantage.
I know my pro-photo neighbor swore he would never leave film he has since changed his mind.
Is it loyalty and familiarity or is there any real reason for new DX cameras; any advantages?
The advantage is most people are not pros , so they save a lot of cash not to mention the saving of down loading your
Camera cards and storing , you will need a better computer with lots of storage space , a top of the line printer , it no use buying a ff if your not into printing big and pixel peeping , and blowing up a small postage stamp size of your picture to make a bigger frame of what you see in it , I would say that 80 percent of full frame users out side of the pros
never use there ff to what it's ment for . You need the best of the lenses , that means $2000 or more for each lens ,
Cheep $900 lens just won't cut it . To do it right be prepared to shell out at $15000 to $20000 or more . or you can buy the top line DX camera Nikon d7200 or d5 , and if you know what your doing you can make photoes that would compare well enough to compete with any ff ,, we all had ff years ago my first three were full farm a koneeka, a pentax
Nikon , now I got Nikon DX . And it's plenty good for the birds I shoot an it only cost me $1200 , but it's eight years old , so I'll be getting the top DX in Nikon next , if I live long enough . and again give your head a shake if your thinking
Full frame and all the trappings you will need . I been into cameras since the early sixties , and if I won a million $ tomorrow I wouldn't get a full frame , maybe if it was 2 million , and I'm shooting every day that I go out .he only time I don't see eagles is if I stay in doors and don't look out the window
