Hello Highlander , just been reading " A birding walk " , and do appreciate the way you write , ( who are "we" ,...students , yer dog ? )...

I also like yer compositions , that `s how I like to see things , are we " soulmates " ?...which leads me too..

Seeing as that you are the seasoned pro, and I`m just a retired has-been, who am I to tell you anything ,..and yet,I dare say :

Nikon D3X !!..it just works , flawlessly , with a 14-24 f2.8 and yer in business , a combo unsurpassed , sure ,the S is Fast and has video , yet looking at your blog , I have the impression that Fine detail is what you are after , and that`s what the S is all about , set to 14 bit depth and it`s as close to medium-format as you could wish for, Active-D lighting can save the day , the build-in lens profiles are a bonus to boot , they just work , secondhand it can be had for a reasonable money , many have been used in the studio, so one in Perfect condition can be found , and the 14-24 has come down in price considerably.

Personally I think of it a Medium-format in a 35mm package.

When your Lifelyhood depends on it , then it´s Costly to experiment , a D3X and that 14-24 , and most likely , You will Not look back.
