[QUOTE="RemekTek, post: 324941, member: 27298"] Hi to all. I just joined this forum and this is my 1st post. I have a D4 plus a Fuji X-T1 system. Both pretty comprehensive. With the D810 announcement, I am wondering if it would make sense to swap my D4 over to the D810. My thinking is along the lines that the Fuji and the D4 are both 16Mpx so the main differentiators are focusing speed and low light. I do not need high speed MD, as my favourite is 3fps anyway (used for talking heads, etc.). The D810 now has the D4's focusing, but brings 36Mpx to the table. This might make a more significant delta to the Fuji FX. Also the pop-up fill flash would be nice to have. The highlight blow out protection metering is a very attractive option. I guess my resale of the D4 would just about pay for a new D810, so the swap should be dollar neutral. Concerns are manufacturing quality, need for higher shutter speed with the high pixel count. Also I have 2nd D4 battery, L-bracket and a very expensive XQD card :( Your advice would be appreciated... [/QUOTE]
