What's new

What's your next new camera?

Last camera, D200, next camera, D500. Just trying to keep it simple.
 
Digital: Nikon D40.
Film: AGFA Optima Compur (far from new)

The D40 is still working well enough for me most of the time, so I won't see that D750 or even D7200 anytime soon.

Just got in the Pentax K3 II, last week. So far I really like it. Will probably carry me another couple years, though I am eyeing some glass upgrades.
 
Last camera was the Canon 7D mk II in Feb of this year. Next camera hasn't been even rumored at yet since I probably wont be upgrading for another 5-6 years. :)
 
My last purchase was the Canon 1dx and I am getting ready to purchase a Canon 5drs
I borrowed one of those for a week because my GF buggered off with my D810 for an important shoot.
The images are quite a bit noisier and less sharp than a D810. I would say to wait for the 5D mk IV

and 100% crop

granted I was shooting wide open with the 24-70 f/2.8
I've found the 5Ds (and 5DsR) to be far nosier at even medium ISO than the comparable D810.
 
I keep telling myself I don't want or need a full frame camera, and that's half true.

I bought a d7200 last year, it's great. I keep looking at d610 reviews so the temptation is strong.
Unless you depend a LOT of wide angles and extremely controlled DoF, stick with a crop sensor.
The current trend is actually moving towards smaller cameras unless shooting professionally. A good friend of mine regularly makes magazine submissions with her Fujifilm XT1
the D610 really isn't worth the trouble. If you must the D750 is far better.
 
Last camera I bought: Kodak six-twenty 6x9 folder. Test roll of TriX is still in it.

Next camera on its way: Pentax K7.
 
7DMIII - I'm being practical that I won't be affording a MII any time soon so by the time I'm ready to buy the MIII will be out (or whatever camera replaces it in the canon line).
 
Not buying a digital camera, but building my first FILM camera 6x7cm, something I've been wanting to do for years and it gives me a nice way to pick up "film" again after so many years.
Collecting a near mint Mamiya (Press) 50 mm superwide lens + viewfinder tomorrow, still looking - not ebay - for a decent Mamiya 67 filmback.
Guess this project will keep me busy for the rest of the year.
 
Current D3300, future something better at high ISO.

My most recent purchase is a Panasonic ZS40S point and shoot. Nothing new planned.
 
Canon 7D mkii here.

I bought a 6D shortly after it was released. Loved it. Picked up a used 7D six months ago and love it even more than the 6D. I use the 7D far more often than the 6D now. This is where those Alaska PFD's come in handy.

Please to look at these instructions. https://jongrepstaddotcom.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/lfcam6a1.pdf As soon as we get back from San Diego I am going to start on this in quarter sawn white oak. It will be my summer project. I plan to have it completed by the time we drive to San Antonio for a week in mid September. Not the most convenient of cameras, but with the wife in a conference for three days I will have time to go have some fun in the old parts of town etc. The last 4 days she and I will putter around that part of Texas before heading home so that will be digital time.
 
My next camera will be a Nikon D610 which I plan to add to my D750 for events, currently I am using my D3300 as second body but once I get more work I will replace the D3300 with a D610 and keep the D3300 as a backup camera.

But my dream is the D750 replacement which I hope will have the D500 AF system
