Question DSLR Decisions

Hi Folks, Just registered toninght. I am using a Nikon D5000 but have now outgrown it. I have several lenses. I need to decide on a replacement. The D600 would be my choice but although I can afford the camera body I cannot afford to change all my lenses so am thinking about the D5200 and the D7000 both good cameras but which is best. Any discussions welcome to aid me in my choice.

I would pick the D7000 as it's better made.

I use the D7000s for a living, just bought 2, as additions to my Canons, leaves the 7D standing

What is it about the D5000 that you feel you've outgrown?

Perfect question. What does the D5000 do or not do that you need a replacement? Often if is better to get higher quality lenses than replace the body.

You may think you have grown out of the D5000 I can assure you not even knowing you that you have not even used it fully yet, get the D7000 but I assume in eighteen months you will feel the same.
