[QUOTE="Ruidoso Bill, post: 660581, member: 753"] Guess I should have started with this post. I just got a D750 for a couple of reasons. First it is a little lighter than my D800 & D810. So your're thinking Bill must be a wimp, right? Not really the case but if you haul a camera, tripod, camranger, ipad mini, hand held flashes around the way I do, maybe a little less weight is a good thing. I do Architecture, Real Estate Photography & Interior designer photography, and Luxury vacation rentals photography. I no longer photograph people, weddings, or anything that smiles or talks. I am also turning 70 this coming July 5th, trained as a photographer almost 50 years ago. Working more than ever, can't even keep up with my current demand. Weight is one thing but this crazy High resolution thing is another. The time to process these 36 MP raw images has taken it's toll. Always behind, can't accept new clients is not a business model that makes sense in a high volume world. I have a fast computer, i7, 32GB Ram, 1 TB SSD, Nividia Quadrro Pro 2000 with 5 GB , everything to improve and increase my workflow. Still I have lost my evenings, my weekends to the point I am exploring outsourcing my processing. Honest evaluation is I don't need 36 MP cameras. Files are large, storage is a pain but the bottom line is processing 1,000 + images a week is slower somewhat due to file size. So, I am stepping backwards in some sense, the D750 is about 2/3 the file size yet it's performance is really good, good low noise, pretty good dynamic range etc. Things I don't like about the D750, no 10 pin for shutter control, different USB and Hdmi, all of which seems minor unless you have a kit which uses all these different cables. So I started looking at what would work best for me. I already sold my D700, on my second D810, had a D800 for backup and to be honest if the old D700 at 12 MP used the same battery it would have worked fine. In so many ways this thought that higher resolution is better is a farce. One needs to shoot what fits their business model the best, if you need medium format resolution then bless you, but if you're a working person that just needs to deliver, maybe that high stuff is a waste. I now use mostly my 19 mm tilt shift and 14-24 lenses. That combo satisfy's 99.9 % of what I do daily, now with a lower resolution D750. I believe the D750 may be one of my best choices lately!
