It's a great camera. I fail to see how this is going full retard. Besides, a second photog for weddings is clutch.
What's your current primary rig? |

plz return the Nikkor 24-120mm f/4. It's not a very good lens even after 2 version update.
For the same price you can get the much superior Sigma 24-105mm f/4 or the Tamron 24-70mm f2.8. |

Several members on here have this lens, and are quite happy with it. Myself included. It is my only zoom, and while not quite the equal of my primes, it's more than sufficient. Edit: Here's a shot with my D500. 
That's at ISO 10,000 I have a hard time finding fault with anything that's going on here. |

Ordered a d750 with the 24-120, battery grip, extra battery's and some memory cards. It's going to mainly be the wife's camera and she is now second shooting weddings for me. It will also be my mostly dedicated photos booth cam as well as video camera. The D750 is probably my next camera, as I do eventually want to add a full frame to the lineup. The 750 is a fine machine. |

Besides making the mistake of not buying Canon, I hope you did the next thing right.
Did you use a credit card with purchase protection that has price matching? I watched B&H and snagged my last Canon with a rebate. I still got a $350 price match from my card. There was NO WAY the price was that low. |

Canon is the now the SotA in cameras, Nikon has fallen behind, and the Sonys, Fujifilms etc are treading hard on Nikon. Canon doesn't have an up to date answer to the D5, the D500, or the D750 for that matter. They have a half assed competitor for the D810 that has more megapixels (whee) but everywhere else seems to be lacking. The 7DII seemed nice when it was competing against a D7100 or D7200..but now it's rather boring because D500. Their lower level stuff the sensors are waaaaaaaaaaaaaay behind the curve. So how is Canon leading, well, anything? |

I've been a Canon guy since my first one, and AE-1 back in '79 but I've never thought of Nikon as anything less than equal to Canon.
They go back and forth as time goes by and either is a fine system. Now when being told that Tamron or Sigma being far better than a factory Nikon lens? WTF? I guess anything is possible but wow... |

Now when being told that Tamron or Sigma being far better than a factory Nikon lens? The old blanket statement of "any OEM is better than any 3rd party" is no longer true and has not been true for a few years. It now comes down to which two lenses you are comparing. Sometimes the OEM is better, sometimes 3rd party is better. |
