[QUOTE="MisfitGeek, post: 681623, member: 45657"] My first career was as a photographer (in the late 70s early 80s) I used Nikon Fs in the field for sports, Mamiya RB67s in the studio and Mamiya 330s for weddings. I changed careers and a couple years ago started doing photography again. I'm currently shooting a D200 and a D2H and have a good selection of fast Nikon glass. I'm shooting mostly regional sports (so daylight or marginal stadium lighting) and indoor. As I plan to get more serious - I plan to upgrade bodies. So. I'm hoping you all can help me choose. ( I know D5 someday but it's more than I want to spend now.) New USA D500, D750 or D850 or a used D810 ($1500 - 22k clicks) I will be adding a article grip to whatever I end up with. While the D750 "seems" to have better low light focusing, the D500 appears to be a better sports camera choice (ISO/FPS/etc.) but I could spring for the D850 if it's worth the extra $$$ for my usage. Then there is also the used D810 mentioned above. Thanks in advance for your advice! [/QUOTE]
