Thank you very much for your long and interresting explanation on the D750. I also treasure the articulating screen when on the tripod. This gives me time to study the composistion better, and it does really help with low-angle photography (Iam 69 now - so I know!) and bending down really is no longer an option.
Congrats on your past birthday - and I think you really deserve this present!
Thanks again - and good luck with your new combination (which seems to suit you very well), the D750 + AF-S 24-120mm
Many thanks for your 'Like' and kind words. While I am still very much a Df user, I found the recent drop in price (at least in the U.S.), due to the roll out of the D850, was too good to pass up. The kit with the 24-120 was like getting the lens nearly free. However, the main reasons I purchased one was: the articulating screen. As another birthday passed, and more appear in the rear view mirror than on the horizon, I decided I no longer enjoyed laying on the ground for low angle perspectives. The pop-up flash is really handy too. In this photo I used the pop-up and pulled it back to - 1.7EV to expose the foreground brush. So, for the price of D850, I got a slightly older technology (much like myself) camera, great lens, same recording media (SD) as my beloved Df, and a trip out West to play with it! Overall, a great birthday present to myself :-) At least that's how I rationalized it!
