[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 747861, member: 48483"] My thought is ditch the DX format body and lenses and only have FX ecosystem lenses that you can more readily share between the bodies. I have D750 and a D7000 myself and I find the bodies are nearly equal in heft and layout, so D750 is reasonable for use as a lighter weight package. I would strongly consider adding in a 50mm f/1.8G to replace that 35mm DX. A down-the-line plan would be to add in a 20mm prime. Nikon f/1.8 or Sigma Art f/1.4 for a wider angle. My personal path to my D750 was to trade-in a D80 body and about half of my accumulated DX lenses. I kept a 2nd beat-up D80 body to convert to infrared (and it has since failed) with a 18-55mm kit lens. I also kept the former primary body D7000 and 2 DX lenses for that. I will likely have the D7000 converted when I decide to get another FX body and reduce to a single DX lens at that point for IR work. And the FX lenses on a DX body are almost always a better plan than DX lenses on a FX body. [/QUOTE]
