The upcoming D600 is rumored to have a price in the $1600 range, which is not bad at all and definitely a prosumer camera. That's why I was ruminating out loud about full frame. I have a great set of lenses right now, some of which would be amazing on a full frame camera (eg: my PC-Nikkor 28mm f/3.5 would be way more useful). I also have five manual focus lenses, so a big viewfinder is important to me. For now, I've decided that the light weight and convenience of DX is better for me, but I could still change my mind depending on what the D600 actually offers when it comes out.
