Gotta agree with you Graham.
I have a full Nikon system that just works but doesn't inspire & only comes along when I have to because of the weight.
I have an M240 which I love for personal work & some concert work. However, I'm down to just the .95 Noctilux which lives on this body. It's my go to 50.
The RX1r which I have fallen in love with for a take everywhere camera & is my go to for 35. It even got me to sell the 35 Lux FLE. This lens & sensor combo is just AMAZING.
Now for the Fuji X system. I started out with an X100 and eventually an X100s. They were great vacation cameras but not a pro tool. I also have had an X-Pro 1. It was getting closer, but just too slow. Along comes the X-E2, which was better but still not there. Finally, the X-T1 is in my hands. OMG. This camera's ergonomics, response, ease of use, & menu system with the really good fuji glass had the MOJO. The next iteration of this camera & the weather sealed 2.8 long zoom, may just get me out of my Nikon gear.
I'm still experimenting with the Sony A7/A7R system also. I love the native glass & fabulous sensor, but HATE the camera. I'm going to stay in the A7 & sell the A7r. The R is just to slow with the shutter lag & vibration. Right now, the A7 is becoming my studio camera.
I'm holding out the verdict on which will stay as my system, Fuji or Sony. I will say that the one which is really enjoyable to shoot is the Fuji.
