Continue With Nikon?

I am going to suggest,,,, a Used D800....really,,, if you are a D300 user,, you will love it,, features that you love,, and the sensor step that makes it worth it. ​

I may very well wind up there but there are many viable options to investigate first.

In Nikon's world before the D3 The D2x, D2H, D1 were all "pro cameras" and were DX - further more I know 2 pros who today still make their living still using D2x's.

When those cameras came out, DX was the only show in town. What kind of work do these two pros do? Does it require much enlargment? I am guessing not.

Sorry to revisit an old thread but a couple days ago Thom Hogan posted an article on his blog titled The Nikon Customer Leak Problem. I didn't post it immediately but wanted to really take time to get a sense of perspective. It is a good read even if it is a tad over the top.

I keep coming back to this paragraph:

Olympus seems to know well that there's an opportunity here. Notice that in the last year they moved away from their "sell small cute bodies to women and bloggers" thing to "sell competent DSLR-replacement type cameras to dissatisfied crop sensor camera users." It's working. I know it is because I can see the exact flow: the reader of my DSLR site starts complaining about what's happening with DX DSLRs, investigates mirrorless, and ends up being a reader of my sansmirror.com site and sending me new email from there telling me how happy they are now.
