I was answering your interim question regarding choice of camera.
Robert is confused because your purchase has been made, and I am commenting on your pre-purchase options.
I personally think that FX has so many advantages over DX, except when you do wildlife and sports action photography. DX is significantly better for wildlife and sports. I am not saying that it is impossible to do sports or wildlife with FX cameras but there is a considerable weight and cost penalty for doing this! I know as I have a Nikon 400mm f2.8 AFS that I seldom use as it is very heavy but it is superb as a 400mm or with a teleconverter x1.4, x1.7 or at a push x2.
I think this is where Eric is having issues with cameras. He does many different genres but prefers to do landscape and wildlife but also wants a smaller, lighter camera. A smaller lighter combo is a Nikon P900/P1000 or similar. But then the smaller sensor is not so good for landscapes. It is always about compromises.
