Finally decided to go FF and got myself a D800, 24-70mm f2.8 and 85mm 1.8G
Btw I already have a 32GB Scandisk Extreme pro SD card, is there a need for me to get a CF card?
how much did you pay for your D800?
Friend help to get a very special combo (D800 & 24-70) price for me so not really applicable here. Its definitely below 6K![]()

If u want to use both card slots. Can shoot raw+jpeg, raw in CF and jpeg in SD. SD handy because if need to do quick n dirty processing and most laptops/PCs now have SD slot.

There's another school of thought - SD for RAW and CF for JPEG. Like 64GB SD and 16GB CF - for the fact that SD is very much cheaper than CF and D800 files are damn big. So if you want to shoot RAW + full JPEG in a cheap manner, 64GB SD and 16GB CF makes sense.
The cost of a 16GB Extreme Pro CF is about the same as a 64GB Extreme Pro SD BTW.
Exact method I use.
