I have to say that I am very often surprised at the lack of perspective of these threads

People start thread based on what THEY like or need and make general assessment that there could be no justifiable need or advantage of a camera if it is NOT ONE for themselves

The opening statement here is a good example of this egocentrism trend .. I have no 35mm sensor camera but If I was to think of several reasons to get the D800 I cannot find them in this thread yet

Fortunately from time to time I get a good surprise of someone wo has some really useful feedback for us

Harold

Can't understand the crusade against the D800 from the OP, i have seen quite a few threads lecturing us about it all.
