yaah D5200 is good...but then again how will you use nice lenses like 50mm 1.8,cheaper 50mm 1.4D,80-200D,tokina 11-16 2.8 and many like these :) I agree these are old lenses but still they r much economical

D7100 will be superb...and weather sealed body is soo important in desert and beaches ...D5200 could not sustain it

7D Mark II will be much expensive than D7100 and I think it's more fair to compare 7D against Nikon's D300s.

nac is right ...its like this

1100D vs D3200 and D3100

600D vs D5100

650D vs D5200

60D vs D7000 and D7100

7D vs D300s

6D vs d600

SX270/280 gets Digic 6 Processors... Let's see how the IQ is gonna be.

Just seeing that about 6 dozen compact cameras have announced in the last 3 months.

Yeah.. SX280 also has Wifi and GPS for 329$.. Looks optimally priced.. Also there appears to be no RAW capture, which could have been an advantage...

Yeah, nicely priced... This year all the manufacturers focusing more on bridge camera's focal length. Not much for travel zoom this year.

That's a nice deal for SZ7. When I last see, SZ7 was selling at 11000/-...

Panasonic (zoom) vs Sony (brighter lens), choose the one you like...

I think for indoor shots brighter lens is more useful...kids play around urself soo no need of zoom

Allllright !
I have two questions I wanted to ask for a long time..
1.Why are large aperture lenses so expensive?
2.Why is there a flicker when a camera is pointed to a screen(TV,mobile,monitor) etc.. Is there anyway we can dodge this problem?

your question is something I never thought of...still lets see if i can answer 1st one

large aperture lenses are costly due to larger lens element

The size of the aperture increases with the focal length....a 55-200mm f4-5.6 have nearly 1.5 times the size of front lens element then a 50mm 1.8...but a 55mm 2.8 lens element is very small compared to 50mm 1.8

The size of front element in a zoom lens will me the max aperture possible...in case on 55-200 f4-5.6 the front element will be of 200mm f5.6 size

A prime lens are very simple in construction soo even with bigger apertures they are cheaper...but a zoom lens are complicated with much more glass inside...if u use fixed aperture in zoom all the elements need to be of bigger aperture size...which becomes costly to make.

this is the same reason max aperture in a zoom lens is f2.8 and in bigger telephoto lens its f4 ....just check the size of nikon 400mm 2.8 then think how will be the zoom look if its 100-400mm f2.8

*photographylife.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Nikon-Telephoto-Lens-Comparison.jpg

here you can see from left - 70-200 f2.8 , 300mm f4, 300mm f2.8, 200-400 f4, 400mmf2.8 , 500mm f4

just see the size difference between 300mm f4 and 300m f2.8 :D

about flicker in tv and mobile...I dont have much idea...I think its due to some refresh rate frequency :)
