For those of you who upgraded from DX to FX, did you find the upgrade worth it?
The Nikon D7K and D600 are very similar in features with the exception of one being DX and one being FX sensor but the cost difference is about a $1,000 which is double. Obviously future FX glass would also be more expensive. Im trying to figure if FX is worth it in the long run. I shoot as a hobby. I literally shoot everything, from landscapes, to wildlife, to insects, to architecture, to people, food, portraits and street photography. I have high standards for my pictures, always trying to improve, and have been trying to learn as much as I can about photography since I got my first DSLR the D5100.
I also know that photography will be something I will be doing as a hobby for a very long time hopefully since Ive always been into it so I know its not a passive thing. Everywhere I read it raves how much better picture quality and low light performance is on FX vs. DX, but is it worth the upgrade to the serious hobbyist? Thoughts?
