Im not far from going to FF and the D750 beckons, but your take on the AF is very interesting.

What apertures do you shoot your work in mainly ?

I completed a first swimwear shoot on the weekend for a local designer known to me and at my weddings so far,I avoid shooting wide because its often a disaster with my apsc gear.

Using focus points more is slightly better than focus and reposition. I too dislike the k3, its going to be one of the first items leaving to fund a FF purchase.....

For me the K1 would fill the spot my K3 currently occupies as a "responsive" camera to shoot certain things that the 645Z is not suited well for. I usually shoot between f/4 to f/5.6 on the 645Z and usually do the same with my other gear. Today I did however to test the limits shot a lot wide open at 2.8 with the 24-70 and was amazed how many shots the tracking focus nailed perfectly. My old 1Dx was no where as accurate at 2.8
