So, I am considering a DF in the near future. ​​I discovered I can get a nice used body for around $1,600 and a used 50mm 1.8G for around $160 from Ebay. So for around $1,800 I can have one of these, much cheaper than buying new (new they sell for $2,250-$2,800).
I like the older style look of it, and I like the older style mechanical dial controls on the top. I'm almost 60 years old, so it's familiar to me.
My question is, what is the downside with this camera? I have not read many reviews of it, and everything I have seen so far is positive.
If you have one, what is your opinion of it? How does it compare to a D7100, or D610, for example? (Those are the two I presently use.)
