Ha, yes the DX FX 'discussion' seems like a hot topic. You guys have opened my eyes to look at things I didn't know I should be looking at in terms of pixels and technology. Yes and even the picture to Flickr is compressed from original.
Perhaps I will stick it out with D7100 a little longer and once D900 comes out next year, the D750 a very discounted price might be the way to go.
Until then I will hone my light skills and lens use. This community is awesome, thank you!


That sounds like a good plan. A lot of people talk rubbish about needing this or that equipment to be taken seriously....your portfolio says all that's required.

Believe it or not I had a double spread in a national mag from a D70 image some years ago. My main camera battery went flat on a shoot and couldnt find the spare. I used my emergency D70 body, for the last half a dozen shots... and the client picked one of them for the publication!!!

o.O

And just an amusing anecdote about a wedding photographer friend. Many people strive for qualifications and justifiably have letters after their name. But it doesn't always make them the best in their field. My friend had the letters ABGP after his name on his stationery. No one questioned him about ABGP for many years...until one day, a curious friend asked him what organisation it was and what it stood for. He explained. " A Bl**dy Good Photographer". He was on the point of retiring by then so didn't mind confessing.

:applause:
