Thanks Jorgen and everyone for all your thoughts.

After considering all the inputs received here I sold all the Fuji equipment (still have a X100s) and bought a D750+24-120 f/4.

I also "tested" the D500 at Photografica, here in Copenhagen, but ultimately decided against it. Mainly due to the slight advantage of the D750 at high ISO and the fact that I do not own any DX lenses. One of the reasons for selling the Fuji was to concentrate on building up my Nikon lens collection. Going DX would mean that I would at least buy one walk around DX lens (probably 16-80 f/2.8-4) and while I can mount that on my D810 it wouldn't make any sense to do so.

So far I'm quite happy with the D750. I was never able to get a shot like the one below with the Fuji, not saying it is not possible I just couldn't get it.

Many thanks again for all your thoughts.

congratulations!

Fuji has been very aggressive marketing their products, in fact they even have 1 day free rentals here in Japan! They are also very fast to point out the Xpro2 with the vastly improved AF. I agree that it is an awesome camera but it is just not for me :o :o :o
