I think that you have lost your scottish blood with all that time on the Shetlands!

The D810 has some really nice features but I hardly use my D800 as I find 36MP is too much and that the D600 with 24MP delivers the same quality (almost) at half the cost.


Nope - I am just filthy rich now!! (Pfft, I wish!).

And Shetland was in Scotland last time I checked - go back to school, JK!!

Don't like what I've read about the D600 and I had a shot of one and didn't like the feel of it either.  I will go into John Lewis when I'm in Edinburgh next week and have a play of the D810, not that I'd pay their inflated price for it.  It's 400 quid cheaper in Mifsuds, never mind another 300 cheaper online.  Am not buying just now, just eyeing. ;-) 

Those 36MP could come in handy for my wildlife efforts as there's much more scope for cropping that dot in the distance and still producing something recognisable at useable quality.  I also want something with enough bells and whistles on to keep me happy for a good few years. I'm not like you, with a room full of cameras to choose from. :lol:

I'll wait and see what magnificent cashback offers are on over xmas this year.  I still have my £40 cash card to spend from last year.  Totally forgot I had it lol.  And, who knows, Nikon might even come up with that nice D400 thingy.
