If you are looking into a Nikon DX camera, check out the Z50. It punches above it's weight class and is bargain priced. Sample images attached.


Very nice. I especially like the 2nd photo.

I couldn't agree more! I have three Canon bodies (two full frame) and a drawer full of lens. And I'm 90, been shooting for well over 50 years. Until someone comes out with a camera that carries me around, I think that I'm all set. <g> Harry

I thought there are 4 new Nikon DX bodies you can buy now. D3500, D5600, D7500 and D500.

“New” means new. That means the Z50 and Z-Fc. “DXXX” and “D500” means old.

I use to sell cameras for the last five years. As far as a new DSLR goes, anything higher than your D5100 would be a D7200 up to any of the full frame DSLR bodies like the D750 or the D850, which both have a crop sensor mode setting for using your DX lenses. Some people are suggesting the D500, which is Nikon's sports cameras that is an excellent choice, but you won't get one for $150-$200 like someone had mentioned. I know many people who own the amazing camera.

Nikon and Canon pulled the plug on DSLR cameras. They're not making them anymore. So you also may want to consider a new mirrorless camera using an adapter for your existing lenses. Depending on your budget, you have a lot to consider and need to research these choices. Olso consider buy used from places like B &H Photo or Ebay, because many cameras are no longer available new. Good luck!

What I said was that a used D500 is only about $150-$200 less than a brand new one. D500s are great cameras, and not just for sports, as the Kool-Aide tries to convince us. They are good for just about everything that a D850 is, except for wide angle and the lowest light situations. They are probably the poorest marketed and most mis-sold cameras of the last 20 years, perhaps longer.

New mean it has not been sold.

Budget? Do you have a lot of DX lenses? Anywhere from a used D7200 up to a new D500. Not even talking about FX or Z.


Right! I would get a D7200 without a second thought. I'm sure the D500 is good, but I have no experience with it. You couldn't go wrong with either one.

I was faced with almost the situation a couple of years ago. I went with the D500 and have had no regrets. I didn’t want I should have spent a little more to get best.

I've had a Nikon D 7100 for the past seven years and I love it--you can probably find a good used one on the Internet for MUCH less money than what I paid seven years ago ($1200.00). I shoot most of my pictures using a Tamron 18--270 mm lens (at the time = $800.00 )which is my go-to travel lens which I've used in the Basque Country, Italy, Paris, Portugal, Barcelona, Thailand, Japan and India.

Nikon Z-50 with the 2-kit lenses. You'll love it.
