[QUOTE="bluenoser, post: 47250, member: 6351"] I was in the same boat as you Ed and I recently decided to just bite the bullet and go FX with the D700. As you can see from my gear list, I have many of the same DX lenses as yourself and still have my D7000 and D40. My next decision will be to keep my DX kit or to sell it (that decision may be made for me as FX lenses are expensive! LOL!) Having the 1.5x that a crop sensor camera gives you would be great to have in addition to FX so I'm going to try and keep both. Of course no one NEEDS any of the stuff we're talking about but there's no a whole lot wrong with getting things that help bring you joy. I went through something similiar to Pete last year and shortly after that I bought the 70-200 2.8 because life really is too short. So, I say go for the FX dream Ed....D700 or D800 I can't help you with - I don't want a 36MP camera and the D700 is just amazing so I'm very pleased with things as they stand. Good luck with your decision. PS. As you have a poll - I voted for the D700 choice. :) [/QUOTE]
