I strongly suggest to borrow first from the the nearest store on your location see if the lens really fits your need.

I live at manhattan and the nearest store my location is Adorama Rentals I often rent first before buying any from them plus I prefer buying 2nd hand items from them not only it is cheaper but it also has a better specs than brandnew.

Again this is still up to you.

From the first post in this thread back in 2014:

"DSLR's are the tool for professionals at this time, but I don't hesitate to say that in the not so distant future that may change.

News from today:

Canon Confirms We’ve Seen Its Last Flagship DSLR

STILL not wasting perfectly good and proven equipment....
As far as I can tell I see.....Zero reason to trade in DSLR gear to go mirror less.

.....Zero reason to trade in DSLR gear to go mirror less.

Wouldn't suggest anyone should trade in perfectly good rigs just to try something out, but I'm sure you'd agree that people replace worn out DSLR equipment everyday. Even if you would replace yours with another of like kind if the necessity arose I'd have to think that investing $$$ in something on its way out may not be the wise move.

People had a hard time letting go of their rangefinders, too.

I don't need a Canon R5 but I definitely want a Canon R5. The technological advances are so tempting. Luckily (and/or sadly) I can't afford one right now. If only my wife didn't want to renovate the house. Hmmm. Maybe next year? The arguments go on in my head....

my problem is I'm grumpy and upset that no interface was made between the old (last 10 years) Nikon DSLR lenses...which are perfect and cost a fortune....and new mirrorless cameras.
Buuuuut things change...maybe I'm off I'm researching less.....Is there any way I can use my Nikon lenses on a mirrorless?

There is: https://thecamerastore.com/collectio...-mount-adapter but pricey.

ohhh that's cool....thx!!!!
The 2 things I do like about the newer mirrorless cameras are the articulating screen and the ability to touch focus!
