Just saw there was a photography section on PFM! This is what I've been pondering lately if anyone can help please.
Currently use a D90 and various FX, mainly prime lenses. Mainly wildlife (don't do landscapes any more really), and main lens for it is Nikon 300mm f/4 AFS.
Priorities for a new camera:
- Higher usable ISO in low light. 800 seems the limit in the D90 and it can feel restrictive wrt speed. Could also allow the use of teleconverter.
- Ability to crop more. This is where the FX vs DX aspect come in too. For the same end result crop, would you get better result from say a D7200 or D610?
- Better AF performance would also be nice. I only use the central AF point (could never trust the 3D tracking) but it could still be better.
Example would be a raptor flying around at dusk, which camera would get you the best end result?
Cheers.
