While trying to stay a few steps ahead, I’ve already been looking into my next camera purchase. However, amidst of furthering my knowledge and doing my due diligence, I’ve seem to have stumble across two distinct buying patterns: 1) an individual will upgrade one camera at a time, multiple bodies, until he/she reaches the “cream of the crop”, so to speak, for his/her specific needs, and 2) an individual will go from whatever his/her starting camera is, to the “cream of the crop”, without the additional buys in between.
I’m curious …. What approach did you use? Do you think there is any particular significance to one or the other, or is it just a personal preference?
I don't do either. I have not upgraded yet but have looked because I like reading up on hardware. I currently have a D3300. The cream of the crop sensor is the D500 but I don't have to have that. I look at my needs; Pentaprism view finder, internal focus motor, and more focus points. The D7200 would be fine. But here's the deal, I get good images from the D3300, so why upgrade? I could go full frame but then I have to buy a bunch of new glass. Heck, I get some good images with my point & shoot. Now, if I can get my wife to buy me a D500, so be it, I won't complain.
