Good morning. You have avoided an attack of GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome).

You've also made a rational decision to buy a DSLR over a mirrorless camera.

In addition, I note that (1) the DSLR has been perfected, and (2) the mirrorless camera offers no significant improvement in image quality over that of the DSLR.

Of course, the mirrorless camera presents an operational advance and a smaller size. In time, it will prevail. I'm assuming the DSLR will stick around in numbers owing to its photographic performance.

Thank you everyone who posted to my Costa Rica Post. I went the less expensive route I decided to get a Dslr not a mirrorless camera.

I got the Nikon D500 and the Nikon 200-500mm 5.6 lens

I made this choice because I like the feel of the DSLR better then the Mirrorless I have big hands. I read a lot of good reviews about the D500 for wildlife paired with the 200-500 lens plus I have experienced how well the Nikon D3 worked for me a few years ago.

Yes a Sony A1 would have been nice or a Canon R5 but the cost was not worth it for me after I started to think what my purpose was fun photography. Out of my $10000.00 budget I still have $7500.00 left to buy other thing I may want.

So thanks again for the advice that you all presented.

I'm still useing my 12mp Canon 5Dc. Can't remember what I paid for it back in the day but it didn't make me blink. Since my printing is 8x10, works for me. Of course I'm an amateur who doesn't burden his friends with his prints! Harry
