I am more tempted by the new mirror less hassleblad myself. In some ways I'm with Robert, but then I shoot DX rather than FX because I don't notice the difference between DX and FX until I get past A2 (prints) and then it's minor. I've had full frame and I don't miss it for what I am doing now, and I don't actually think I needed it then because my second body was DX and I actually preferred the results from the 10MP DX sensor to the larger higher pixel count of the FX (D700) I had. I think there is a lot to be said for less better quality photosites than cramming in more, and I think NIKON has realised this with the D500 and they concentrated elsewhere on performance, colour rendition et al. I wouldn't bother going to FX now, I would rather invest in good glass or jump straight to medium format. If I was offered £5k on a camera I wouldn't by a D5, I would buy a used Hasselblad. Although I wish they made waist level finders for them as I don't want to use medium format like a 35mm, at eye level
