D800E - used at a grand ($1300 CDN) - good idea or pass?

[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 669071, member: 24285"] You have much more self discipline than me. Good points but don't see me doing that. Indeed, I'm way beyond being a collector, the term hoarder may be applied by some, ... not TV hoarder material (yet), but throwing stuff out, or trading it in is tough for me. Did give my daughter-in-law a box of gear with a D90 and half dozen lenses suited to that camera. I have not considered trading in my D610 for the D800. As for being a collector - that is one of my other hobbies. I have a few dozen vintage cameras in a display case. The cabinet does not hold all of my old cameras - I have another dozen not on display.

Yes an upgrade for sure. A $1,300 upgrade, not really. But hopefully when I retire I'll have more time for all of my hobbies, .... and that day isn't that far away as I just turned 64 Saturday past. One more year .... (said that before, but this time I mean it...) [/QUOTE]
