No need here for the full frame format, or print large photos . My pictures are displayed via computer or posted online, so mid range DSLR is where the primary intreats lies. I do want sharp crisp photos that is a must, the ability to shoot low light and timed exposures, a reason for the DSLR quest.

Looked over Costco's prices I see no note worthy advantage in the pricing compared to other photography resources. On some camera models they are the same within pennies of the manufactures quotes.

I thank all for the input always good to read what folks like and the reasons for that.
