Hi. I am looking for any posters on how to chose first DSLR. Had SLR in my teams but sold it 35 years ago as never took it out - too heavy and kept needing to swap lenses. Got a Sony RX100 a couple of years ago and am trying to improve pictures (general days out/hols etc) and it is great but now want greater optical zoom when I would be happy to carry SLR.
I have been looking at forums and have noted many comments about getting second hand kit.
Do not think I will ever get to FX need and do not want to change camera regularly.
Am thinking of D5300/D5500 or going for D7000/7100.
Lens - I am thinking of is one walkabout lens as I will have the RX100 for when I just want camera in pocket, thinking 18-200 or 18-300.
Am I right that if I go for the D7000/7100 then it has motor in so my choice of lens would be greater and I could get better lens for money?
Any pointers great fully appreciated.
