[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 501672, member: 13090"] Well now THAT'S the $64,000 question, isn't it? Am I glad I did it? Yes, absolutely. That being said I would have a hard time SUGGESTING you follow suit unless you know you're going to be holding on to your D750 for a while or you have money falling out your a--. If you frequently upgrade your camera body I don't really think it would be worth it but I plan on holding on to my D750 for quite some time and the cost wasn't an issue, not that I'm made of money by any stretch of the imagination; it was still a significant investment for me. Had I thought about it too much before-hand I'm sure I would have talked myself out of it... In short, it's hard to put a value on a thing like this and the cost was just enough to have me second guessing my snap decision almost as soon as I made it. In-camera sharpness is a wonderful thing but I think you need to gauge how serious you are about your photography and how long you think you're going to value your D750 as your primary body. Lastly, I'd say if you're going to miss the cash, don't do it; too many other things far outweigh sharpness when it comes to quality photography (meaning technical merit). Maybe, for you, that money would be better spent taking a class instead. But in short, yeah... I'm glad I did it. But that's me. I hope I haven't just totally muddied the waters for you and good luck with whatever you decide! [COLOR="#FFFFFF"]..... [/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
