Imagine you have $1000 to spend, and the following:
What camera would you buy with that $1000? I'm totally fine with used. If you read my other post, I was considering a D700, which I'm finding for around $500. But then I made the mistake of doing more research and happened upon other options. I've now decided I could stretch to $1000 (I do like the wifi aspect of the D750, since most of the time I am taking pictures I have someone next to me saying "send me that," but I don't think that alone is worth an additional $500).
Clearly I buy things for the long haul, so I want something that will carry me for the next 15+ years if possible!
Thanks for your help! I've been spending way too much time reading these forums in the past couple of days, and it seems like there is a lot of expertise here. Hoping to be able to contribute soon .
