I’m hoping to upgrade from my D3300 soon-ish, as I’ve been really enjoying wildlife photography– but am a bit frustrated by the D3300’s performance in low-light, and the inability to use my Sigma Lens (unless I manually focus it). From my own research, it looks like the D500 or D850 would be great choices — but any affordable D850 has…

Canon or Nikon? Hi everyone. I’m looking to replace my old Konica Minolta Dynax 5D with something newer, more reliable and overall better. I take photos of cars, especially at the track (Imola) but from the spectator’s stands as I don’t have any media pass, so I was looking on the local used market for a camera with a higher image quality and a way stronger zoo…
