While i dont have the best set of lenses i have two which cover most of what i want to do,the 150-600 and the 105 macro,this will make my next purchase most likely a second body,at the moment its a toss up between the D7200 and the D610,whats next on your list.

Honestly, for the price of a new D7200 you can get a refurb D610. You and I both have the D7100 and for me at least would not make any sense to "upgrade" to a D7200, especially when I'm not interested in a higher buffer capacity, the tilting LCD and the 1 stop ISO improvement.

The last thing on my list is a long prime but the jury is still deliberating which. I got sidetracked by getting the D810 first.

For the rest I would not know what else I'd need. I got my lens set complete and although there's always more or better, what I have is good, or good enough, for what I require.

Maybe the next generation FX could get on my list again. I checked some technical data about the D7200 which behaves perfect for my ISOless shooting style (if that data is correct) so if they continue that trend towards the next FX, one of mine will be replaced.

But until then, there's just a long prime on my list.

Looking at your type of images i think you will make great use of FX

Good LORD, loaded question.

Just paid for my next class, then the short list is a 10-stop ND filter and a Raynox DCR-250. Depending on what I discover shooting with those, it's either an 85mm 1.8G or 105mm Macro on the horizon...

WHOLE LIST of wants after that, but my main goal right now is to up the art, not the equipment.

I've been tossing around the idea of getting a 24-70mm (Tamron? Nikon??) or a Nikon 24-120mm. I'm a little hesitant on the 24-120mm since some reviews indicate the IQ is top notch and other reviews seem to indicate it's rather soft. I'm spoiled by the sharpness of my Sigma f/1.4 Art series primes and want to give up as little of that as possible.

4 bottles of Russian River Consecration -- quite sure it will help the quality of my pictures more than another body or lens
