Thanks for the advice all, my 7200 and 35mm f1.8 have just arrived. Exciting times :)

Thanks for the comments all. I think I’m narrowing down on a 7200 with perhaps a fast 50 if I can get a good deal. Then some kit rationalisation is required.

So I think I am edging ever closer to a solution. Looking at 2nd hand prices, it seems that I can get D7100s and D7200s for south of £500. D7500s seem to be closer to the £700-800 mark. Functionally what would a D7500 get me over a D7200? - Tilting screen doesnt move me much, Im not interested...

Looking at the mirrorless specific lenses and there doesn’t seem to be an equivalent of my sigma at the moment - though presumably there will be eventually. And it turns out my sigma is too old for the ftz adapter. So I think that puts me out of mirrorless for the moment. A D500 would be great...

Greetings all. There are a slew of similar questions around the bazaars, and I’ve read as many as I could find, but they all seem to be fairly specific to the individuals asking - so I hope it’s not too much of a liberty to start my own thread. I currently own a D3300 and have had it for 5...

Thanks. Good idea. Obvious now you’ve said it. I’ll give that a try.

Norkie thanks. Some of my previous attempts can be found here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/wcave/albums/72157667894159367 And in my other albums

nbaker, yes thank you, I’d seen that before and noted that my lens falls within that serial range. As I’ve bought it second hand are Sigma likely to still be providing that support? Especially as it’s a post from 9 years ago? I’m also not sure that the issue described is the problem I’m having.

Thanks mike. That is what I was worried might be the case

Hello all. I am mainly interested in aviation photography. I am very much an entry level photographer and have baulked at the cost of even most second hand lenses. I’ve got a Nikon D3300 and my previous go-to lens for airshows is a Tamron 70-300 4-5.6, which has been pretty good. I’ve been...

Good evening all. I am Will, currently living in the west-country. I’ve been getting more into photography in the past few years. Main subjects are aviation related but I like finding interesting angles or views wherever. Looking forwards to learning more.
