I shall not be rushing out to get a £5000 500mm lens just yet as I'm starting to get results with what I've got. Also how long before D4S is replaces with D5?
Well according to my rumour mill it will arrive early 2016.
Full spec unknown!
But it looks like 24MP which is what the D4 should have been.
The rest is icing as a D750 does all I want and is probably a lighter package.
I need to make my final decision regarding Nikon v. Fuji before it is released.
No doubt a 'lighter package' out of the box...the D750 weighs the same a as the D7100. Of course it lacks the weight of the battery grip portion that the D3/4/5 models have, but adding one will still make it a lighter load.
The only thing I would say is that stepping 'down' from a D3 to a D750 I did notice a speed of responds drop. Not a problem in normal use but I rattled off 10 raw shots in quick succession and card writing did slow...but that might be the SD card I was using as it was different to the CF card in the D3.
I am getting the battery grip for the Fuji XT to see if it's feel in the hand improves. In terms of weight and functionality with the V4 firmware it may be a close run race between the D750 and the XT for general use. Of course for long lens use the DSLR will always win. IMHO
