D7000 is better than D90 for sure on paper. but if you're good, u can still take good pics from D90 last year D7000 with kitlens is around 3.5k. now with new model around i think the price have drop already. D5200 is entry level, D7000 Is another level up. go to some nikon center and test it yourself. lol.

D7000 is older but pros are built in screw drive motor, magnesium alloy body with weather sealing(if you want to shoot in mildly rainy weather). Higher % of viewfinder coverage, 100% to be exact vs D5200's 95%. Has Commander mode which D5200 doesn't. 2 SD card slots with functions(overflow, video to be recorded into slot 1 or 2, backup).
D5200 is newer pros are better video mode(60fps), 24MP(D7000 is 16MP) and a tad bit better in ISO than the D7000.

I'm not sure whether D5200 can change aperture while in liveview/video mode.

Hmm..mind i ask some stupid question ..don't people more prefer to buy the old version camera instead of new version camera because what we know that new item always got some problem even just some small problem that people not care but for the old version all the problem should be report by users and the problem mostly fixed right ?

i will suggest D7000 coz im using one

would you be disappointed if later on u found out D7000 doesn't suit u? if yes then make up your own mind if probably no then just buy D7000

when u bought ? and what the current market price ?

oct last year at 3.5k. current market price i dont know. u can opt for the body only, and go for 2nd hand lens.

don't you also buy the body only and the u buy the 2nd hand lens afterward?
just worry for the qualify of the 2nd hand lens as we dunno how the owner take care about the lens.

that's why test on the spot, check for screw and rubber got loosen up or what, and fungus, scratch of glassses...bla bla bla...

someone just talk his experience of checking 2nd hand lens

KCTY right? sorry i have not enough ram of remembering these

want to ask what's the difference between tokina 116 pro dx and 116 pro dx II?

i checked the website it say dx II some with silent wave motor while dx doesn't, so does 116 dx have built in motor?

I saw my name. Whats up ?

i bought together with kitlens. anyhow if u r new altogether with dslr i recommend u to use kitlens first. don't worry.. my kitlens is like new xD

imma still with D90

guide for buying 2nd hand lens lulz, if he want la haha.... (refer back the budget 4k below wanted to buy D90, later on change to D7000 post )

1st version is w/o build in motor, 2nd version is with motor
the rest are pretty same

yea.. then u can convince him that D90 still take great pictures

I've seen teetaatee sifu's photos taken with the D90, wouldn't know its a D90 if didn't check
Still, if budget permits, its more worth it to get the D7000 right?
