Thanks for the additional insight, Anewman...
I fully expected to return from WDW, wishing I'd had a dSLR or at least a better P&S than what I have. I was surprised to find that the images I returned with were of substantially better quality than I expected. I've had the 5200 since March and I'm glad I had it that long, as it has taken me a while to learn some of the nuances of the machine. I realize that it is not the equal of any dSLR, and is not quite at the level to which I aspire, but for the cost to benefit ratio, I'll take it.
Actually, I have found "the" camera for me, in doing some research for my still-film-but-yearning-to-go-digital freelance pro photograher wife, the lovely and talented Mrs. YEKCIM! That camera is...drum roll, please...the Nikon D200 with 18-200 VR lens, which is apparently as scarce as hens' teeth at present (the lens, that is). However, $2400 is not, in my wildest imagination, a possibility, so I'll keep my sights set much lower.
