Years ago, when I purchased my D200, I thought I was set for life. Given my skills at the time, I was. Then I stumbled into sports photography and my camera was no longer adequate. For the last three years, my D300 was better but still not adequate for the poor lights of high school fields and gymnasiums. Though I have not formally started a business, this feels more like a business investment than a personal purchase.
But now having a full-frame sensor, I look forward to better landscapes, wildlife shots and portraits. Like most photographers, I wish I could go back to all my good photo situations with the better skills and equipment of my latter years. Oh well... Just thankful to have lived to the day of this technology and the amazing ability to shoot limitless photos, with basically no cost, with modern camera cards.
My last two camera body purchases have been used - a good option for an amateur to upgrade. Now I need a 24-70mm 2.8 lens and a 300mm lens :)
