[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 353294, member: 9240"] That's crazy logic!! First, you're comparing the bottom of the line DX to the top of the line DX cost-wise, within the current range of sensors. And you're talking about technology that has been around for well over a decade and been refined over 5-7 generations. To do a similar comparison you'd have to start with the D810 at least, which boosts you $1000 on your starting price, and really you should be talking D4 just to get up 2 levels from bottom, [B][I]which is what the D610 is!!!! [/I][/B]Then consider that you're talking [I]maybe[/I] 3rd generation technology in the FX sensor, and really only 1 generation when it comes to consumer grade stuff. Your logic only makes sense if you want to build in the wait time it took Nikon to turn the D40 into the D7100. Plainly put, you're out of your mind if you think that they only thing preventing Nikon from releasing an $800 FX bundle is the will to do it. Bat-sh*t crazy, as my grandfather would say. [/QUOTE]
