Nice shots, Eric.

The quandry we face today :-) ...which equipment to buy :-)

I still maintain that the only real advantage in going mirrorless is to cut down on weight and size. Using old Nikon lenses on a mirrorless camera has no appeal to me at all...if I want the big stuff, I will grab the D500 - no mirrorless camera on the market can match it and it's only marginally heavier than a fuji xt2 (but quite a bit heavier and larger than an xp2)

For me, the x100 series is king but the xp2 is the emperor :-)...I made a mistake when I started buying the whole lens kit...why not get the "best" like the 16-55 vs the kit lens 18-55...well, the weight, stupid (I say this to myself) ... I take one or the other of these everywhere I go. Try as I might, I never came close to doing that with Nikon only.

I love the hybrid finders !!!!! but they haven't replaced the Nikons for everything and likely won't


just my stupid opinion :-)
