The common price level I have seen mentioned is £6K which is to me a crazy amount of money.
I can get a very fine medium format body (Fuji GFX100S) with all the bells and whistles for that price.
I have no doubt that having set the bar at £6k, Canon and Nikon will go in at similar price tags.
I suppose it's how you view your assets and how you want to spend your income.
As you know, I see no value in sitting on equipment that gets little or no use, just because it's resale value is below your expectations. It's yesterday's money.
The more choice you have, the greater the obstacle to making that choice.
So if the holy grail of photography (the camera for all situations) is about to emerge in Sony, Canon or Nikon livery.....maybe it's worth paying the price, if it's truly the only camera you will ever need?
We shall see.
What's certain is I had accumulated far too much Nikon equipment (more than I ever needed or used as a professional photographer!) and as I don't pick up a camera often enough or with the enthusiasm I once had to warrant a combination for all eventualities...I am thinning out.
One camera and 3 lenses is enough.
