at this time I wouldnt recommend a 750, I've been reading about some of them having problems and have to be returned for repairs. I think I would wait a few months and let Nikon sort out the bugs.

Definitely the D750!!!

I have a 750 & a 7200. I prefer the 7200 for wildlife for the reason that the angle of view is tighter with it allowing for the full use of all 24 mpx as opposed to cropping with the 750. The 7200 is capable of really nice landscape shots as well, but the 750s full frame is better. The 810 would be even better for that, but it's probably going to break the bank. If finances allow, keep the 7200 and buy a 750.

FX format, ISO 25600, 51 Focus Points, what more do you need? Nikon D700.

If you need exercise equipment, buy some weights. Your D7200 will give you just as good photos as you'll get from an FX. I have by no means exploited everything mine has to offer.

Of course, it is your money.

The D750 only weighs 2 ounces more than the D7200. I have gone hiking with both of them. Most fx lenses are bigger and heavier than the kit dx lenses, but if you buy & carry an equivalent quality dx lens (17-55) they about the same as my 24-120

I would stick with what you have. You get 1.5 times the reach with any tele lens. If you have a good wide lens for landscapes - what more do you need?

nothing is wrong with the dx format, I own both the d750 and the d7200 and each have their own strengths and weaknesses and I enjoy both. it's a matter of need and desire, both formats produce quality photos.

DX forma cameras have several issues inherent with the design, noise, inability to print large size prints, to name a couple.

the d7200 is a good design in my opinion, it handles noise very well, and I have had great success in printing 12x18 photos. how many of us really print any larger than that anyway?
