The X100 and XP1 are similar concept but the XP1 is better executed. The nice thing is that used as a pair they are perfect for travel. Both camera bodies and a 35mm f1.4 and 60mm f2.4 for the XP1 will weigh no more than the D3 with battery. I do agree that a long telephoto would be good but if you have a Kipon adapter you can add Nikon lenses to the XP1 but you need to shoot them in manual focus mode and also with stop down metering. I am thinking that a D800 will complement this setup very nicely but that the D800 would have a 70-300 AFS VR attached. Having the X100 has convinced me that for landscape work where I predominantly use 20-35mm that I dont need a DSLR as a decent camera such as the XP1 gives me everything.
