Keeping the 7 and selling the fuji. The 7 is more functional with my Leica lenses. I use it as a backup and in poor light situations where the M9's limited high ISO capacity starts to bind.

that is for now, eventually in the future there may manufacture MFT sensors to a level where it would be almost indistinguishable to the eye, and when that day comes, say E-m10 or something similar, the larger APS-C advantage will be no more.Aside from the news reported here: President Hiroyuki Sasa says E-M5 sensor is from Sony! | 43 Rumors
one of the comments is quite intriguing- The OM-D's IQ will never be better than that of a NEX (due to the sheer size difference of the sensors).
If Oly stays with Sony, the quality will always be the same as APS-c sensors, except that they are quite a bit smaller & therefore file quality lesser. If they do not stay with Sony, they will hardly find another manufacturer that makes sensors as good as the Sonys.that is for now, eventually in the future there may manufacture MFT sensors to a level where it would be almost indistinguishable to the eye, and when that day comes, say E-m10 or something similar, the larger APS-C advantage will be no more.
Very true, speaking from personal experience, on the other hand still pretty happy without a Nex 7 or even Nex 5NI agree though Bernie, thing is though, you could be stoned on this forum for saying so! :ROTFL:
I have a gut-feeling that the company that may deliver the nearest to your wish-list maybe Pentax/RicohSo... IMO, what I need is an X100 with interchangeable lenses, IBIS, on-sensor PDAF, high res EVF, high end video mode, focus peaking, a touchscreen, and a 24mp Sony sensor with GXR sensor toppings (some may prefer X-trans.) Heck, while we're at it, make it a 35mm sensor! LOL
Yes, we forget so quickly. As little as 12 years ago - around 2000 - most shot still with film or crappy overpriced 0,7 MP compact cameras (a few had DLSRs with 2MP for 20.000 bucks).As someone new to decent digital cameras, I have found it delightful: small and light enough to fit in a large pocket, big sensor, large dynamic range, legacy lenses, focus peaking, image stabilization - at a reasonable price point.
I really don't think people here were complaining but more just talking about their preferences in their favorite tools. I think pretty much everyone here would agree that the quality we get from most newer cameras is astounding and now it is becoming a matter of your own personal shooting style as what is the best fit.Never ever before such incredible quality has been so affordable and available as today. And yet people keep on complaining
