Anyone still using older models of DSLRs such as Nikon D3? Is there any reason in particular to not switch to a newer model of DSLR?

What does each lens do?

I'm want to buy a Nikon D3300 DSLR and see that there are different types of lenses to use… Nikon 70-300mm f/4-5.6G AF Nikkor, Nikon 55-300mm VR DX AF-S ED, 650-1300mm Telephoto Lens, etc. I was wondering what each lens is made for. Thank you.
Added (1). * I want to buy…

Sigma 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG Macro DSLR camera lens won't focus when set to Macro mode?

I have a Nikon D5300 camera and got this lens. No matter what I seem to try it just won't focus when set in Macro mode. The box the lens came in says that it is compatible with D5300, Df. So I'm not sure why it's not working. We ordered in a big bundle from Altura Photo off of Amazon. I consider myself an amateur photographer right now so maybe I'm just missing something. Please let me know your insight into this issue. Thanks!

Nikon DSLR purchase?

I'm buying a Nikon d7200, and I'm unsure of what to get. There are grey market cameras, which I don't want, and sketchy dealers. I want a good new or used, manufacturer refurbished even, d7200. Which dealers are legit and sell USA d7200's, and should I bite the bullet and spend 1,300 for a new one, or get a refurbished for 200 dollars less. Again, I want a legit USA camera, and not an international version.

Added (1). I put more emphasis on stills, I rarely do video. The touchscreen feature isn't a pro or a con for me. I care more about performance. The Nikon bundle I'm looking at is cheaper, includes more accessories, and equipment than the Canon's, I'm leaning more towards the Nikon since I will receive more for my money. Both cameras are pretty similar but I would like to hear from more experienced photographers. Cost matters to me but I don't want to skimp and go for the cheapest for the lesser camera.

Help: Lens Autofocus Problem?

Hey I bought a 2nd hand sigma 17-50 lens from someone for my nikon d5300

However when I tried the lens on the camera there was just one problem.

When the lens is set to auto-focus, the display of the camera would focus rapidly between af-s and m. And also when i half press the shutter, the beep noise from focusing doesn't happen.

The manual mode of the camera works fine.

The internal focus is also not broken as the lens managed to auto focus for 5 seconds until it went back to the problem.

Also my other lens works with the camera just fine only this lens.

And I don't think it is the contact problem of the lens otherwise the camera wouldn't be able to control its aperture. And the camera doesn't say lens not found

The lens also has a built in auto focus motor
