[QUOTE="Bill16, post: 562384, member: 15356"] I have found that I am very happy with my two Nikon's and I will never likely out grow them. Plus they fit my photographic needs with plenty of capabilities for anything else I might want to shoot. So changing things now would be nothing but wasting money on gear that wouldn't improve my shots. I am not arguing FX vs DX folks. I just think I am in the best setup for me for what I shoot, covering all my bases very well without any need to buy more or change over to something else!:) But to the question! If the D800 isn't making you feel thrilled, then I highly recommend selling it to find something else! The D8xx line are specialty Nikon's an are not suited to everybody, and you need to love it for it to be the right Nikon for you. Other Nikon's are more versatile in some ways without leaving you stuck with huge files that are bigger than you ever really need. I love my D800e and wouldn't trade it right now for any other model! If you don't feel that way, then surely you would be happier a different model with more reasonable file sizes to work with.:) It sounds to me that the D500 would suit your needs very well my friend, since printing larger photos isn't a big deal for you. :D [/QUOTE]
