This "upgrade" theme is getting real old. It's nice that you're happy with your new camera, but why is it necessary to come into this forum and tell everyone that your camera is so much better than the ones that the folks here own?

I own several very nice cameras, including the d5100 and d7000. I'm sure that your d600 is nice too, but for the double or triple costs, it dam well should be a nice camera. Even so, it doesn't negate the fact that the d5100 and d7000 are excellent cameras, especially when one considers the cost.

The d600 is not topical to this forum. These posts that try to demonstrate the "my camera is better than yours" are way out of line.

Dear Kerry,

I appreciate your sentiment, but it is helpful to discuss the costs/benefits associated with camera upgrades.

I had no troubles with my D7000 in really good light, but the product I gave clients suffered when I used it at weddings.

Several posters in this forum shoot weddings with the D7000, and they may or may not have the issues I had. Either way, providing more information and more samples is a good thing. Data is the best resource to use for decision making.

I never said my camera was better than yours. I said it was better than mine. Each of us has different needs, and the gear forums are here for us to learn and sometimes make better decisions.

I'm sorry if I offended you, that wasn't my intent.

John
