I think that since it is 20.9 MP that Nikon have made a great decision to align the new D5 and D500 as a working professional pair with 20MP as the sweet spot for MP density with current technology.

I have the D600 which is FF and 24MP as well as the D800 which is FF and 36MP and I seldom use the D800 as it is too detailed except for landscape!

So I was debating D810/D750 but now the D500 adds pleasant confusion to the mix. Do I want FX or DX? I think that the FX option is good for landscape and I have that covered with the D800, the D600 is slightly (very slightly) slower than the D800 at AF speed in low light levels. The D750 is meant to be equal to the D810 in AF speed so maybe I need to release my D3 definitely and get a D500 or D750. I am leaning towards the D500 as it provides me with higher ISO capability for use with longer telephotos.
