Why not skip the incrementals, and go directly to a D700?

I believe you have already made up your mind. You just need that push over the cliff. So consider yourself pushed. Happy Shooting. I shoot a D-800.

Not sure what the new camera can do that the old one can’t. But getting a new camera is always thrill.
If you want to leapfrog into something new, get the Z mirrorless body. Your full frame lenses will work just fine as long as they are the Nikon brand. But the real thrill is the new series lenses for the Z bodies they are amazing. I own the Z6 purchased last year and never regretted buying it. Sometimes we don’t need a reason to buy a new camera.

As a D750 owner, I must say I am absolutely thrilled with what my camera can do. And it does have back button focus (I think most modern cameras do, but don't quote me). The thing that makes me so happy is the incredible high iso performance. Just about the best on the market, I think. For the first time ever I am comfortable using auto iso up to 12800, and the results are fabulous.

I have wondered if the extra pixels on the 850 would allow for noise cancellation that would still bring out an image as clean as the 750, but I have never seen that kind of comparison.

Oh, that's just brainstorming activity, not a secondary question or topic.

I shoot with a D750. Have shot Nikon since 1967. Have asked Santa for a D850. A guy only lives once.

I knew something was wrong when you wrote that? We all make mistakes. But, you corrected it. 5TB is a lot of storage. You should be fine.

Seasons greetings "Cool Hand Luke". I too am a 750 guy with a D300 background. Just curious, what was your experiences/issues with the 810 and D4 in case one might take a smaller step (s) towards the 850.

Mirrorless are just smaller. So what if "Z's" are the "future", they do not take better photos now than the D850 nor nor will they.

There will be improvements and trade offs but overall your images will mostly look the same unless you are into large crops.

This is a fight that will never be won, and it's getting tiresome.

Please let it die a peaceful death.

STEP 1: Shovel money out the door for "the latest and greatest."

STEP 2: Ask yourself "Why is my photography not improving?"

STEP 3: Repeat Step 1.

If it is paid for and you don't need to trade it, I would keep the D750 and add the D850. I own them both. They are both wonderful cameras but the D850 has far more detail in their images. However, I can't hand hold the D850 and get sharp images due to the micro sized Pixels. So I bought a D750 with a 24-120 lense that came with it. The D750 has half the number of pixels, so any movement is forgiven because of the larger sized pixels. Remember, the space used is the same whether it is 24m pixels or 45m pixels. In addition, you didn't say what your genre is. Mine is landscape and travel. So the the D850 is used for Landscape and the D750 is for everything else. I also consider the D750 a great back-up. I have often wondered what it would feel like to be hundreds of miles from home and your camera gets dropped, or worse. Now what? And remember, the lenses are the same, or are they? You need to check your lenses to see if they are compatible with the new-fangled cameras. Chances are you're good to go, but I'd check it out anyway. If they aren't compatible you may be looking at more dollars being spent. Good Luck

No one can tell you what you should do or not do! Just think about all the reasons you want to and weigh them against the ones why you do not want to, maybe even put in on paper. That may help you come to a decision!
