Absolutely, yes, get it especially if you can still find a minty one in 2017 like I did last year. It's now one of my all time favorite bodies. Why? It delivers a filmic look from its rich CCD colors and soft highlight roll off (much like color negative film).

My recommendation is to pair it with sharp Nikkor glass to offset the strong AA filter a bit. Here I used the 17-55F2.8G which has beautiful 3D Pop in addition to contrasty colors.
