When did you last crush your consumer camera?
8 months ago

Of course.
D600.
Supposedly lesser build, less magnesium alloy than the D700 and D800.

I have a D700. and D300 before that.
Both supposedly full magnesium alloy body.

Does full magnesium alloy really matter?
If so, how?

I once get a response that the non-professional build
get "flexes"/ "instability" in the body with a heavy lens.
Is that true?
The biggest lens I have is 70-200 VR II.

Is it true then that if one put a 600/4 lens (which I have no plans to buy)
on the D7000 or D600,
then, it does not hold up?

This is for normal consumer family photo use.

to collect the camera."
