I have D600, I want to sell it for X-T1. Is it worth investing in X-T1? I'm in dilemma whether to switch to X-T1 or Keep D600. Need honest opinion.

Impossible to answer without knowing what you shoot, how you shoot, what lenses you plan to purchase, low-light, action, etc. etc...

I just sold my D600. I had the Nikon shutter fixed, which worked fine, so that wasn't the reason. I just enjoy shooting with the Fuji more and I love the lenses. The X-T1 does what I need it to, but don't make the switch if you do much video. Fuji just doesn't make the grade there. It's the same with long telephoto and TTL flash. If you can live with those limitations, the X-T1 is a gem.

I did just that about 1.5 years ago and I have never been sorry. I get much sharper pictures. I appreciate about light the equipment is and I am getting great results. I sold all my nikon equipment and bought 3 Fuji lenses.

As a previous owner of D600, I think I can honestly answer this question. In my opinion, I love XT1 a lot more than D600. XT-1 performs a lot better in low light and also has beautiful colors that easily beats Nikon. X-T1's burst mode and focus tracking is amazing as well. Hope this helps.

If you are an enthusiast and shoot a wide range of photography subjects, it should be ok. The X-T1 is very good for travel, people, landscapes, etc. For sports, the D600 is far more effective. Also consider the lenses. You can get the 35mm f1.4, which is great optically, but the focusing is a bit sluggish.

I have both and I wouldn't change the D600 for the X-T1 for serious, payed or critical work. Although it's my opinion for the photography I do... maybe for you is different. I would suggest renting one for a week or so, try it extensively and come to a decision. Cheers.

I made the switch from a Nikon D610 and have never looked back. I love the smaller size of the XT1 because I take my camera everywhere. I use to take my Nikon everywhere too, but it wasn't at all convenient or discrete. Bottom line: you must consider what you shoot and how you shoot. Don't get caught up with sensor size, because both will result in great images. Also be sure that the current line of Fuji lenses will meet your needs as well.

The D600 has had a known issue with the sensor; recently a class action suit was filed against Nikon, and the judgement was that Nikon needs to repair those units and Nikon has recalled them. i believe by doing so, you will be getting the new D610, which is an excellent upgrade. I do not see the D610 vs. XT-1 as an either or - they are both excellent, but different, and the D600 will still produce superior images due to its sensor characteristics. I love my XT1 and I love my Nikon D700, and D800. Different tools is all.

This is a difficult question to answer because many things come into consideration. I have a Canon 5D MKII and 6D along with the Fuji X-T1. I prefer to use the fuji camera because of size and weight and the Canons have not been used enough to justify keeping them. However, the AF and high ISO quality on the 6D is better. you will gain some benefits but also lose some with the switch. My recommendation would be to rent one and see if it is worth it for you.

I'm sorry I am unable to answer the question. I don't know anything about X-T1.

Thanks for your review and great job on the research. I need your opinion on something. Although, the current price of the XT and and XTi is less than $200.00. difference, the List price is the XTI is twice as much as the XI. I kind of agree that the XTi isn't really much of an upgrade over the XTi and some of the superior features of the XIT I'm not really to concern about except the 8MP and 10MP. I'm not a proffesional or anything like nor I plan to do large prints, but should I pay those extra bucks just for 10MP? Please help anyone.

Sounds good! I'm buying my first digital camera for my daughter and her family. I've locked in on the t1i and 15-85. I really like my 24-105 lens and think that the 15-85 should be a great match for the camera.

Ended up buying canon T1i instead of T3... will be in my hands next week. Bought it from Walmart for 629. Amazon price was 709 for the same camera. Letting you guys know if anyone is interested in buying Canon T1i. it is a 15MP camera with 720p video at 30fps and 1080p with 20fps. I really don't care for video part but it was really good deal compared to what best buy or amazon was asking for same camera.

I am very happy with my D600. So many people do not recommend it simply because there are SO many people out there who are serious about their cameras and photography in terms of sheer numbers and the folks with negative thoughts are the generally the ones who post opinions. Two thoughts, if I had had the money, I probably would have gone for the D800 despite the added size and weight, and if you have a collection of DX lenses, you may want to upgrade to a camera you can use them on rather than the D600 which really needs full format FX lenses. Remember that good lenses are generally more important than the actual camera body for great photography. Finally, both the D600 and D800 are very complex cameras. You will grow very old before you have even begun to have used all of the features! :-)

Just bought the D40x two weeks ago, and spent the weeks before that researching the D40x vs. the XTi.I'd go with the D40x... you can't go wrong with a Nikon, and the kit lens that comes with the XTi is terrible. I bought the D40x, and have since added a few accessories. I feel like I made the right decision and I am totally thrilled with the purchase... No regrets at all. Plus, Nikon makes a longer-lasting camera.D40x!!!

Well, that's kind of my point. Why get the SX1? It's going to be too big to have the p&s; convenience, and the quality won't even be close to even the Rebel (especially if they release a new one in the next 6 months.The SX200IS should be small enough to carry everywhere, and have close to the quality of the SX1.As much as the SX1 interest me, I'm having trouble figuring its place in my, or others, camera needs.

I sold 2 years ago, after bought D2Xs, I was scaring to buy Nikon pro camera. Now I have D3s and D7100. D2Xs is worst I had

Sad. Now that the T2i can be purchased at the same price, I'm afraid Nikon will lose out to Canon. I'd prefer the Nikon if the price was better, but at the same price, I think I'm leaning toward the T2i. I will wait a few days to make the purchase, but if it was today, I'd have to buy Canon.

I bought the Nikon-FX version for non-AI lenses, works fine on X-Pro1. Since the sensor is not FF I don't see why you should have any problem with DX lenses - just tested a Tamron 28-75DX, not problem. This model is for lenses that have an adjustable aperture ring. Later Nikkors do not so that is the crucial issue depending on what lenses you have.

I am in the same boat. I am highly contemplating the d40/d40x and the Rebel xt/xti. Right now I am leaning towards the d40 as I don't plan on doing large size prints for the most part and I've heard that the Nikon lens kit is better. My only concern is that I want to do some HDR photography, and the Nikon's don't have AEB which concerns me, but I'm seeing a lot of discussion about shooting in RAW and getting similar results from one picture. Should I go with the XTi so I know I can do HDR properly and suffer with lower quality lenses, or get the D40/x and shoot in RAW and be done with it?

Canon vs Nikon is a personal choice. I would say that it's like using windows vs Mac OS. In terms of quality, they take pretty much the same. This canon is as good as it looks, and you'll probably be pleasantly surprised what you can do with it. In the hands of a good photographer you can get amazing results. I personally would go with canon as I feel that there is more literature written about it. More community support, etc. I would be more apt to research if I was going into the higher end cameras, but make no mistake... Professionals use this camera and write a ton about how they were able to pull of their shots. There is a great book for the T5i by Jeff revell which you can purchase for amazon. I think the new book for the T5i comes out this month, but the one for the t4i is essentially the same in terms of operating the camera. On a final note about your question as to the more advanced camera... The 60d and the t5i are essentially the same camera. The 60d leans more toward strictly photography, while the t5i is more of an all in one package. I've heard from most reviews that the 60d has a slightly better picture, but most of these stats are on paper only and not necessarily anything you'd be able to see a difference in from one photo to the next. I would say what you're looking for is the t5i. The other great thing about buying a t5i is... If you maxed out your technique and were dying to upgrade in the future... Your lenses, filters, accessories will carry over. And you'll only need to upgrade to a better body. I think this is hands down the camera to get. Even if you want a better one in the future... Spend the time juicing this one for all it's worth... So that your eye picks up to the subtleties of the differences between this and the next body up. That's just something that's harder to gauge the higher up you get. Like anything in life, the higher up you move, the more subtle the difference between(save the price.) I hope this helps.

The D4 is a very good camera. The D4s is slightly better at high ISOs. Its seem to track focus on moving subjects a bit faster. Go to DXO website and they do a great comparison on cameras and you can compare the two cameras. The picture quality is the same I think over all again with some improvement at high ISOs. I do not know what you shoot or how you photograph so it is very hard to give advice on upgrading. If I had to do it again, I think I would stay with the D4 and which I still use right along with the D4s and wait for the next big change in camera bodies.

I too have wanted to buy a T2i for a while, ever since I noticed the announcement in February. Then, it was seemingly always out of stock at Amazon. Perhaps I haven't waited long enough, or maybe it just wasn't meant to be. Although I have bought 5 Canon cameras over the years, and I considered myself a Canon loyalist, I am beginning to wonder if maybe I should buy a Nikon as my first digital SLR.

As a novice photographer should I start with XSi to see if I will really get into photography? Or would you recommend T1i to be my first dSLR?

I am not selling anything. I have a D2xs but I don't use it much. I use my D80, D90, and D3
