I am sure a lighter D5, whatever it's eventually called, will be a distinct benefit for people who want a cheaper lower spec fx body with pro performance.


Right at this moment, if you cannot take superior photos with a D810, D750, or D600, then a D900 isn't going to help.

I am happy with the D750 quality and performance. But I see the advantage of having a dedicated long reach body for specific situations....and the D500 sounds like a good retirement present for me to accompany the D750.


I find my D600 is very good but the AF in low light is not as good as the D3S. My aim would be to get a ?D900? to replace my D3S so I have a higher MP and better AF camera than both my D3S and D600. I will then release my D3S, D700 and maybe also my D600.
My D300S will move to underwater use once I get my D500.
My D800 is somewhat of an anomaly as I find it noisy e.g the mirror slap is very noticable to me.. Also it has too many MP for every day use, but it is great for very detailed work such as landscapes.
