 You may well be right, Iain. My problem was that the D750 wasn't ideal for it either. The dilemma was, do I get a D500 and long reach lens, when birding may be a small part of my requirement.

I already had the Fuji100-400 and a range of other lenses for general photography and IR. It was just the XT1 body that let me down when it came to small fast moving birds. The new XT2 is widely acknowledged as a major step forward in this area...so I thought "if I eventually have to get a D500, I won't need the D750 anyway".

Time will tell if Fuji is my camera system for all things. I just came to the conclusion I would never really make a decision while running the two systems side by side. Each having their own faults and strengths.

I will keep my wide and medium pro Nikon glass for the time being...in case I do return to Nikon.

Of course, I haven't seen Wex offer yet...so this may all be academic. :lol:
