What you say all makes perfect sense,it's just that FF fly buzzing in my ear,I will probably continue to ignore it and shoot on with my belove d7100 ( no filter in it ) which I also think makes a difference,think you have made up my mind for me,till the next bargain FF comes close by ! photograhic cheers from over the pond .Graham

I have loved every minute of owning the d7100 part of me doesent want to part with it,but the FF ideology won't stop getting into my ear hole, the idea I will be top of the pile with FF and get better results.i do have some FF lens which I use on the d7100 some manual but a auto focus Nikon 35-70 mm f2.8 which almost never came off,part of me longs to see what that glass will give me on FF.

I have been looking at MPB website,prices are generally higher than private sale as you would expect given they do offer some warranty,though their trade in prices are also low compared to what I might get for my D7100 in a private sale,thinking I would be best off selling mine private and buying through them,though it will all take longer no doubt and mean being without a camera for a while.

Sorry to read that. It sounded like a good deal and Nikon could have told you if the shutter had been serviced or not. If you can't afford a "new anything", used bargains always carry some risk. It should have been easy to check out the camera if the owner was willing to let you shoot a few frames with your own memory card. If the owner wasn't willing then do not walk away, run!
The main problem here,is that its social media selling,I,m in one place the seller far away,so it's a case of do I take a risk,pay and get rubbish or not,the trying it idea isn't practical if travel costs are high as in this case,though would work if fairly local.
Guess I will never know if I made the right call.

Being the said "catman" in this lively exchange, I have decided to error on the side of caution, won't be buying the d600'just not brave enough to take a chance with my £525 , who knows another bargain might be around the next corner ?

Thank you for latest thoughts about eBay and low light and Nikon honouring their word all valid and interesting, still can't decide though ! Always difficult where hard earned cash is concerned and future photos.

Hi,
Have toyed with going to Fx from DX for my mainly but not exclusively cat photography,however have gotten the chance of a low shutter Nikon d600 ( 8700 ) at £525 a private sale ,seller says it's been back to Nikon and. Had the dreaded Shutter problem sorted,should I buy or not ?

True,better to have sharp nothing than out of focus Masterpiece

Just mt personal experience,I changed from Nikon d5100 to d7100 and the sharpness without the filter was a lot,in three years I haven't had a problem associated with no filter,maybe I was just lucky ?

I too paid out for this software,I do use it and have to say I too think some are no longer on the list of available backgrounds,possibly new ones pushing the older one out there seems to be an upper limit of around 600 ?

I used one on d5100 then D7100 for a couple of years,I found it light,focus fast and a good all round lens with good results,in fact it was my most used lens for walkabout,for the money hard to beat.

Very nice I was fascinated with the ferry when I went the Echo Arena,a great spot for Photographs.
