Oh Bugger indeed :banghead:
Because of weight and size I was an early adopter of micro 4/3rds starting with a GH1 in 2009
and I had recently decided that my 'investment' in Olympus lenses finally tied me to this format,
but this X-T2 announcement has unsettled me :facesmack:.
It's got good old fashioned wheels :thumbs: and a sensor that would allow me some cropping room
and an ability to use faster shutter speeds in low-ish light conditions
(I'm not talking about FF ISO ability so useful for vampires :grin
.
For my everyday carry (going nowhere special) of one body with one lens attached I suspect that I would prefer to use an XT-2 with an 18-55 f2.8-4 OIS to my EM1 with my 12-40 f2.8;
with the X-T2 sensor balancing out the speed advantage of the Oly f2.8.
But once I start adding longer, larger, faster? lenses, and it also looks as if I would need a grip for those too, my shoulder and my chosen airline would both object
.
NO - I'M NOT GOING TO RUN TWO SYSTEMS :argue:.
Unless Olympus offer me a generous part exchange for my S5Pro and grip which languishes in a cupboard somewhere, and why oh why do I still keep (deeper in that cupboard!) my Nikon F100
and a couple of lenses for both systems that I never use ????????????????
Of dear, come September depending on the specs of the new EM1 - I can see where this is going :loco:
