Torn about adding FX...opinions for my situation?

You certainly have FX body lens coverage if you were to make the jump right away. Consider selling off your 17-55, 10-20, 24-120 and maybe even the D300s and pick up the D800 and 24-70. From your frequent mention to going full frame (D700) why not get the D800 and be set for many years with not having to contemplate another upgrade. Unless you are a birder, sports shooter or just like a pro level (build,af...) DX body you might appreciate an FX sensor for your type of shooting.

Last summer I almost purchased a D700 but the D800 release date became a reality so I held off, once the initial purchasing and bugs are worn out I may go FX next summer with the D800, still a few dollars for this rig. Cameras are just tools and yes some are better than others but for what I mostly shoot (everything but sports and birding) FX will be the choice and I am looking forward to working with a big mp sensor. It's the processor in me...hehe.

Which ever decisions you make, good luck!
