[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 53202, member: 3903"] You haven't let us know what camera you are using now. How unhappy are you with your present camera? What lenses do you have? Are most of them FX lenses? I'm afraid I have more questions than answers for you with the information I have about your present gear. Let's say you open the box and try out the camera, how much less could you sell it for then? I don't think the fact that the box was opened would depreciate the camera that much. Now if you put 20,000 actuations, then it might (notice I said might) depreciate a little more. What would you have to loose just to unpack it and give it a trial week or month? What if you like it so much that it satisfies your needs? Then you just saved a lot of money and be forever happy. :) And then, if you really want (notice the word "want" does not equal "need") the D800, just go out and get it. Since you probably would have to wait to get one, my suggestion is just to go out and use the D700. But you're the Boss. ;) [/QUOTE]
