There is one thing you can count on in life: There will always be another version. It will be announced the day after you buy the current version.

This is a serious question, I know that "they" say that removing the filter will give sharper images, how much sharper? Can it be quantified? Are there samples, actual side by side from the same sensor?

Asking a question in a thread where another question has been asked is considered hijacking a thread. I know that you probably don't know and this is why you asked, but you probably won't get much of a reply here so the best thing to do is actually start a new Question and be as clear as you can in the subject line so that people with the knowledge and experience will answer you promptly.

I am about to buy a Nikon D750. My only concern is that the model has been out a number of years, and I would like to avoid buying a camera if a replacement model is in the offing. Do any of you know if Nikon is planning a replacement to the D750 this year?

Yes A replacement for D-SLRs is in the making at Canikon. It's called mirrorless format and it is the camera format of the future. Canikon have both stated 'the heyday of the D-SLR is past'. So if you have an existing D-SLR (or SLR) body and existing F-mount, full frame, lenses go ahead and buy the D750. Otherwise if you don't have a existing f-mount, full frame, lenses then I would suggestion wait to see what Nikons mirrorless model looks like.

100% true.

As your walking out of the store you see them changing the posters in the windows now that they have sold the last older model to you.

I guess you haven’t heard, on line threads are a form of conversation and like conversations around a table at your local pub, those conversations tend to wonder. In this case the OP’s question has been responded to, answered and commented on. By me and others. If the subject has been beaten to death conversation will die unless it takes a natural move in another direction I suspect you weren’t trained in this aspect when you were appointed hall monitor.

These threads aren't like pub conversations. which often last as long at the participants can keep from falling off of their stools. The threads, on the other hand, die natural deaths and typically they die quickly. One of the surest signs of the terminal stage of a thread is the introduction of tangential or even unrelated material.

You're doing yourself a disservice by re-routing a thread, because many participants have already had their say and won't want to come back with a rejoinder. Plus, your post can get swamped by others that are still responding to the OP. You'll get more response focused on your post if you start a new thread.

Come on guys I'm not a newbie here. The thread was petering out and I asked what I thought was a related question. Related as in if the 750 is replaced with a sensor without an AA filter would the IQ really be that much better? In my earlier response to the OP I suggested if he needed a new camera waiting for an updated model would not necessarily give him any better pictures. Then a post suggested that a new model might not have the AA filter and would give sharper pictures
My question was relative, reading through the thread would have shown that.

For the record you and jeepdaddy have succeeded in changing the direction of the thread.

These are Bridge cameras with a fixed lens. The P900 has a focal range to 2000mm, and the P1000 has a focal range to 3000mm. I never heard of them as being addressed as a mirrorless camera, such as the Sony mirrorless cameras. Or other brands, such as Fujifilm, Olympus, and Panasonic.

No mirror = mirrorless. Mirror = DSLR.

My reply was to someone who implied that there was hope for a D750 update because Nikon was updating the P900.

I educated the person as nicely as I could. You, on the other hand, are a peach of a human being.

Right
next time read through the thread before jumping to a conclusion and playing Marshall Dillon. My question was related and certainly could have helped the op make a decision.

No mater what you buy it will be updated if you keep waiting for the latest you will never buy one.

Thank you jburlinson. This is exactly what I was trying to say as nicely as I know how. Some people just don't know know how respond kindly. You on the other hand are kind and logical. Thanks again.

Get the D750 if you like it, and it is capable of producing from the way you shoot. I’ve had mine almost 3-years, and would have two more if I hadn’t inherited my son’s D610, and my wife hadn’t preferred the feel of her D7200.

I shoot sports, studio, and landscape. It’s truly a Swiss Army knife. Low-light shots are so unreal I’m actually planning to re-create some shots from my film days because the D750 outperforms the high-speed B&W films from back in the day.

About the only reason I would have for replacing the 750 is if Nikon introduces an upgrade that shoots 12fps, ISO 25, higher mp’s with the same low-light capabilities. Otherwise, I’ll probably pick up at least one more 750.

Well this is good info I had not considered that aspect. Thank you. I guess that’s why it’s called “social media”.

But I think jburlston also had a good point. I think you are both correct. Lots of facets to this thing called social media.

Increasing resolution is NOT the same thing
as "taking better pictures".
