[QUOTE="hark, post: 621580, member: 13196"] You already have one of each (FX & DX). Do you find yourself using one over the other more frequently? The D610 is definitely no slouch. I find myself using mine when I don't want to put up with the shutter error problem of my D750. Personally I'm not into DX as much even though I still have my D7100, but here's the thing...if you ever want to get into macro, DX will give you an advantage as it also will with birding or shooting anything that requires a longer telephoto. And if you're into birding or sports, DX really is the way to go. Shooting DX is kind of like sticking a teleconverter onto your D610 lenses without suffering the loss of one or two stops of light. If you get a D750, your D610 will most likely sit around like a paperweight. What good is that really going to do for you? Whereas if you go with the D500, you will have the advantage of larger macro and telephoto capabilities with it while still enjoying the benefits from the D610's full frame. The D800 is also a good choice. The one thing that turned me off is hearing good technique is crucial. I suffer from chronic forearm tendonitis, and even with VR, there are times my shots aren't immensely sharp with my current FX bodies (due to my own slight movements). With the larger senor, if you don't have really good technique, most likely it will show up in your photos. Maybe you don't mind shooting with a tripod a lot, and if that's the case, then it isn't really an issue. Or if you are super still while shooting, it won't be a concern for you. With my D750, I pretty much expect the shutter ERR will happen on my very first shot of every day. Then usually it isn't a problem for the remainder of the time shooting even if I turn the camera off for short periods of time. In fact, I was so confident this happens that only on 2 occasions did I try to capture it happening on video. Yep...it happened both times. For some odd reason, when I'm in manual mode, it doesn't happen. But I tend to use Aperture Priority the most. Good luck with whatever choice you make. ;) [/QUOTE]
