Nikon D3200 or D3300

[davidvu396]

I still have a Nikon 50mm f/1.8 here and I want to stay with Nikon for a while now.

As photography is only my hobby, I do not want to spend that much money on an expensive camera.

 

My choices are atm: D3200 for about 260€  OR D3300 for about 360€

 

Do you guys think the D3300 is worth 40% more (+100€) than the D3200?

I have a 3200 in my collection. Great little camera, and it does almost everything the 3300 does. I'd vote going for the 3200 and putting the other hundred towards a new lens

Good point.

3200. Never makes sense to jump to the next increment of camera. Usually the upgrades say from the 3200 to the 3300 are never justified by the price. Spend the difference in price buying more gear for your kit.

This is a great suggest

Buy a 3200 (maybe even a refurb) and a 35mm 1.8. Because of the crop sensor, the 35 will be closer to 50mm and the 50 closer to 70 ish.

My thoughts exactly as image quality is a combination of a good body with great glass. So the more glass you can buy the better as getting the right glass for the right situation will make good photos great.

I dont think a 35mm would not be that much different, I like the bokeh of my 50.

I also plan on buying a Sigma 10-20mm in the future.

It depends on the style of shooting.

 

I do alot of run and gun stuff, and find it is much easier to walk up closer, than have to back up to get proper framing. I had a 35 and 50 at the same time, and ended up not keeping the 50 for that reason (it also seemed to have a focus issue, but, that was discovered later).
