Which Nikon for my first DSLR ~ the D5100?
I've been working happily with a Panasonic FZ150 bridge camera for the past year, but when out in the field, I find I'm constantly fitting & removing the extension & Tele Lens for different shots, which is not doing the threads much good at all. So I was thinking of keeping the Tele Lens on my 150 & getting myself a good Nikon camera to use for all the other shots.
Checking them out on Amazon, I like the look of the ~ Nikon D5100
Would this be a good choice for someone new to DSLR cameras, or would anyone care to recommend a better choice?
Were I to buy just the body, which Lens would you recommend? I'm thinking the 55-300mm might be the way to go.
Cheers,
Dick
