Mirrorless..... Fuji XT-1 or XT-2

Or take my X-Pro-1 off my hands and I'll buy one of the above

Had a few very good Nikon DSLRs and the Fuji X Range blow them away in terms of picture quality... even on the jpeg setting they are awesome

Here are a few taken in Cuba recently with the X-Pro-1.. the XT range are better still

Class photos them pal. Are you a professional photographer? If not you should be.

Far from it.... the Fuji X Cameras really do make a difference... it's not really about the gear either... you need an eye for a photo...

I'd like to think of myself as a keen amateur (drives the missus mad when we are away... I'm always playing catchup because I'm taking photos...)

You might want to take a look at the Nikon D810.

It's successor (D820) will arrive shortly which means the 810 price is going to start tumbling. It's an excellent camera.

The only thing I would add is to remember that you are buying a system rather than a body. Lens availability and prices is therefore something to consider because as your shooting style and preferences emerge through practice, you will eventually be adding probably 3 or 4 lenses plus a flash unit to your kit.

Also make sure you go to a camera shop and handle the bodies. I have had DSLR's, went to mirrorless and then back to DSLR. Sad though it may sound, I felt far more in tune with the Nikon ergonomics than I ever did with my Canon and Sony kit for example. I agree with the other comments that some of the smaller units like the Fuji pack a hell of a lot in and offer amazing image quality. So the good news is that you have some fantastic options out there depending on what you need, available budget etc.

Hope that helps!

I also use the D810 and find it a superb camera.

We do quite a few cruises mate so basically things that don't move
Landscapes, ancient monuments, kids, views of cities, so maybe some wide angle, I might want to take some of space as well

Can't go wrong with a Nikon D5300 in my opinion. Great all rounder

Good write up on the club photography department

Pro Talk: Manchester City Slickers

Manchester City have bucked the trend by employing a full-time team of photographers to cover not just the first team but all their associated commercial activities, and it also happens to be one of the youngest in the football league. We got invited to accompany senior club photographer Tom...

Any recommendations of an entry level camera ?

Depends what you want it for and what your budget is :)

Nikon D3500 is decent, but you need to swap out the kit lens it comes with really.

(Professional photographer - weddings and dogs but not at the same time.... yet)
