these days, not so much [MENTION=135107]tksalarzai[/MENTION]
there was a time when crop sensor cameras had inferior image quality but these days, the difference is negligible
Nikon D7200, Nikon D500, Nikon D5500, Nikon D3300, Canon 80D have amazing image quality and can match their full frame entry level cameras. Fujifilm XT2 has most impressive results and Nikon D500 can even surpass D5 interms of dynamic range and image quality.
Okay after image quality, the next thing is depth of field, it is much shallower in full frame than on crop sensor. 105mm f1.4 n 85mm 1.4f will give excellent subject to background separation on fullframe than on crop body, but again difference is subjective.
So it depends what is ur style n genre of photography and why you want to upgrade.

Can anyone give me a review about Mirroless cameras? like sony a6000 etc.

I am looking into picture quality but the camera size is something matter to me. Can't carry huge DSLR camera everywhere. So mirrorless seems like a good option. I know with lenses i have less options but i don't think i would be buying them initially anyways.

mirror-less is future, i personally love to own a mirror-less myself n Sony is making some best ones
image quality has no difference from D-SLR, same sensors r used by Sony n Nikon (cause Sony makes them all)
so don't think much, portability wise nothing can beat mirror-less size n weight
so a6000 is great option, u can use canon lenses also with an adapter so lenses choice is not limited
n there r tons of old manual lenses which one can use ... again with a cheap adapter so choice is endless

Thanks Man. I didn't know about the lens adapter. I was reluctant because of the lens choices but you made the choice easy. :)

btw do you know any shop from where we can buy it in karachi?

@smaadjahangir a6000 is kinda old now, i dont know from where u can find it in new condition
otherwise in saddar on shahra-e-liaqat, shops like golden camera (yousaf qadri) n hashmi photos (hashmi sb) are good n old shops and do visit them
online shops like homeshopping, ishopping also do have them
see if u can extend ur budget to Sony a6300, its better than a6000 ... 4k video, better AF system, 24mp sensor same as in nikon d7200 etc

[MENTION=4563]opethian[/MENTION] Thanks. I'll check those shops. A6000 is in my range and going for something more higher can be overkill for me right now. But I'll check the price and difference between them and see if it is worth it.

planning on buying the first camera looking for some recommendations for a dslr camera budget is 100k
What will be the use ?
If you do have this much budget , i recommend to extend a bit more to get new Canon 6D with 50mm (FULL FRAME) camera.
Or find one in used for around 100K

I use a kit lens of d3300 for taking group photos and stuff and I want to know what options do I have if I want to upscale my picture quality for the same kind of photographs i-e group and landscape. Any suggestions?

get a wide angle lens
if u have budget then go for Tamron 11-16mm f2.8 ($400)
or Nikon AF-P DX NIKKOR 10-20mm f/4.5-5.6G VR ($350) local p rices will vary

I read a very good article on the type of lenses and their uses. I came to the same conclusion: WIDE ANGLE LENS.

I will look for a 2nd hand Tamron 11-16 400 dollar way too much. need to get it cheaper.

One question though... Will this lens tamron 11-16 work with NIKON D3300?

Hey guys, new to photography and I don't know shit about it. I'm a beginner graphic designer, I'm currently working on a product portfolio and I need to take high quality product pictures. I already have a tripod and studio lights but not much else. The product pictures will be edited and printed on to a magazine so they need to look great. Additionally, if the taken pictures can be blown up to banner quality, that'll be a plus too.

What kind of camera setup would be suitable for this kind of work? I was looking at Sony RX100 for the job as its pretty cheap, but I'd like a professional opinion.
My budget would be 500-1000 euros.
