Any suggestions?
I get the magazine Popular Photography and in all honesty, its going to be a toss up according to their reviews. Look at the cost of quality lenses, and what features you want and go from there. also realize that you will not want to switch camera brands when you upgrade. you will put lots of money into lenses and that is money lost if you switch, so look at higher end models and see which line you like better. When you buy a camera you are buying the brand too unless you have a lot of extra money laying around.
