[QUOTE="Whiskeyman, post: 732134, member: 13556"] It is a slippery slope you are contemplating an ascent of; albeit a fun one, as well. What would you do with an D8XX lens that you can't do with your D7000? Unless you really need the benefits of increased focal length field-of-view and are willing to fork out the funds for FX glass, you will get few benefits from changing over to a full-frame camera body. You would get some feature upgrades (like improvements in AF and sensor sensitivity) if you were to upgrade your camera to another DX format camera like the D500. When I purchased my first digital camera, it was a DX-format D90. I had that camera for several years and built up my selection of FX-format AF lenses before I purchased my first FX-format camera. I waited to get an FX-format camera until my photography interests/endeavors had a "need" for a wider field-of-view than I could get with the DX format at a particular focal length. WM [/QUOTE]
