I chose the D810 over the D750 when migrating from a D700. Shutter 1/8000 vs 1/4000; AF-on button for BBF, controls layout; CF card slot; build quality. Cons are huge raw image size and slower burst. Once the D850 is out, you should be able to pick up a pre-loved D810 from someone who needs the latest best gear to improve the IQ of their snapshots.

Comments about the 850 aside, between the 750 and 810 I can offer a view. Depends on what/how you shoot. I use both. The 750 for hand held walking around and casual shots. The 810 for tripod landscape. If you want to print very large then the 810. Both are good in low light - very close technically. I have found the 810 with many more pixels to be a bit subject to micro blur and more difficult to get large DoF sharpness. Lastly, if you are just walking around shooting the family, the 750 is niticeably smaller and lighter with a deeper right hand grip. Good luck.

I would suggest going to a local camera store and play with both cameras. Buy the one you like the best.

I had both the D750 and D7200. I like them both, layout is almost the same but I found I used the D7200 more for its longer telephoto reach. I liked the grip and the flippy screen on the D750 better than the D7200, I couldn't tell the difference in the IQ so it came down to not using the D750 enough to justify having both cameras and I wanted a smaller camera to carry with me i.e the Fuji x100f so I sold the D750 and most of my FX lens and use the D7200 for nature/wildlife stuff and the x100f for my daily carry with me camera. It really comes down to what works for you and what you can afford.

Apples to apples, though you'll pay a little more for it, the D810 all day long. D750 just out a little over a year or two and plagued with problems hence; what is it now 2 or 3 manufacturer's recalls? I agree with you that the prices for both of these cameras will drop, the D850 cost will be higher and being the first generation of the product may have issues too. Second generation of the D750 will be better than the current ones I'm sure, if they don't kill the line. The D810 in MHO paired with your existing D7200 would make a well rounded kit.

I am sure you understand that using full frame lenses on a crop body actually defeats the purpose for which those lenses were made. The D7200, from what I know is an excellent tool but those lenses you own will be better served with a full frame body.
I have used a D750 and it is a great camera. I have no experience with the D810.

The OP stated that his lenses are FF lenses, so using DX lenses on an FF body is not an issue. I have a D7200 and most of my lenses are FX in anticipation of purchasing a Nikon FF in the not-too-distant future (probably the D810). Before I decided on the D7200, I had purchased the D750, but returned it as it did not have the reach I needed for wildlife and birds. As I recall, the layout of the controls on the D750 is very similar to those on the D7200. IMO, you really can't go wrong with either of the 2, but my decision was based solely on the subjects I shoot. Cropped sensor was just better for my purposes.

What subjects do you mostly shoot? The nature of your subjects may point you to the features of one of the cameras you are considering to be better for your purposes than the other.

I just bought a new D810. Compared it with a D750, which was actually a little closer to my budget. Ended up buying D810 because the controls and menu structure more closely mirrored the D200 and D300 that I have been shooting for the last 12 years. I do not plan to retire them, so I felt that the compatibility would be important. I just did a little bit of research, and my suggestion to you would be that if you do not need the increased resolution of the 810, the D750 might be a better choice for you, especially if you do not plan to retire your D7200...control layout is virtually identical. Of course, I can't easily compare menu structure from this distance, but you might look at that before you make your final decision.

I intentionally bought the 810 instead of the 850, because I'm not interested in assuming the risks of a new model, because I really didn't want to wait, and because if the 850 is really 42 MP as has been rumored, the RAW and JPEG files are going to be even bigger than the 810's files. Please understand, though, that I'm not saying that I might not be interested in an 850 somewhere down the road.

These are my thoughts. I'll be interested in knowing what you decide.

I used the D7000 but wanted a full frame camera so I made the jump to the D810. It is an incredible camera. I use it for action wildlife and some landscape... It loads a lot of detail onto your raw files so your photos are incredible.

I have not used both, but I have a secondary D-810 that would be for sale to a non-commercial user. I am keeping one 810 with my collection of Nikon glass, just in case. My other cameras are Sony A7RII and Hassy X1D. I can't use them all. PM me if interested

A very large number of D750's are currently under recall from Nikon to fix an issue. The clear answer to your question is buy a D810 refurbished by Nikon at a decent price at nikonusa.com.

I do own a D810 and use it extensively for everything other than sports action. For that I use a D5 and a D500. I checked out the D750, but felt the D500 would be a better fit for my work: sports. I believe the D750 to be an excellent camera. When the D850 arrives, you will, most likely, be able to buy my D810. Best of luck.

I own both the D810 and the D750, and I'd say it's a matter of horses for courses. I mostly use the D810 as a studio camera. Image quality is awesome, and the size and weight are not a problem. The D750 for me is more for general use. It's more feature friendly, and as others have said, parallels the D7200 in its features and controls. Both cameras can be rented for hands-on experience, which might be an option to consider. The smaller file size of the D750 is a benefit on older computers. Objectively speaking, I would say the D810 is the superior camera, but I tend to use the D750 more. I hope some of this helps.
