I am finding the Sony RX10 with it's Zeiss f2.8 24-200 (35mm eq) lens does all I would want to do with the Nikon D400 they have not produced, so have lost the boat with me.

That is the crux of the problem with Nikon not advancing a certain model that a user identifies as best for them they ultimately run the risk of losing that customer.

I bought the Fuji X100 then the XPro1, then the XE1 and now the XT1. This has cost me more than buying a D400 but it has shown me that I can get great quality from a smaller, lighter camera even with a restricted lens a**enal.
I have just bought a Samyang 8mm f2.8 in Fuji X mount to give me super wide that the Fuji 14mm doesnt provide.
My total Fuji kit fits in a LowePro Mini Trekker whilst my Nikon equivalent doesnt fit in two LowePro Trekker Aw backpacks which are twice the size of the Mini Trekker.

Like you I will think very hard before buying a D400, in fact I'm more likely to buy a D5300 first!
