I'm liking the D800 also, but I'd rather wait for the D400 or whatever it's going to be called. The D800 is too much camera for what I need....heck, my trusty D90 is more than I need. I swear, this hobby is worst than modding cars.

Agreed Mike, im trying to get a grip and realize im not a pro getting paid for photo work. I do find myself OCD'ing out and pixel peeping. Knowing damn well its the tool behind the camera that makes the biggest difference.

But specs are specs and as we get more accustomed to constant upgrades, things are noticed when we revert. Things like a puny viewfinder and horrible battery life makes a good reason for opting to buy the more expensive body (my main 2 gripes with the d3200). The other odd thing is they opted for 12 bit vs 14 bit raw files. I realize this is THE entry level Nikon DSLR for the most part, and i shouldn't expect to much from it. But its helping me understand what i do what from my next camera.

Anyways time will tell.. But i sure wish the D400 or D7100, what ever it will be, was out right now. I really want to test the new sensor. And i wouldn't mind spending another $1000 over the D3200 price to do it. Maybe ill just return it in a month(thanks best buy) and buy a D800
