  1. I have looked at it and used it but not taken photos outside with it. The use of it is what really make me like it. SM
  2. Getting an XT-2. Have a Sony a6000 with LCD screen what tilts. I don't use it but would like to because of the glare when used in daylight and not being real able to see it at nighttime. Is the XT-2 like this also? Thanks SM
  3. Perhaps wait until it is in and then call and order? Thanks SM
  4. I would like to be the Fuji X-T2 with kit lens and Battery Grip from B&H. It is 1,999.99. However, it appears to be always back ordered. Do you just order it online and then wait until they send it? Any thoughts? Also, would really like GPS with Fuji X-T2. Would prefer a really good GPS system. One that fits on the hot shoe would be good. Can't seem to find any type except for smartphone apps. Thanks for any help. SM
  5. Great responses. Thank you. SM
  6. This is some great input. I am going to have to study it. Thank you so much. SM
  7. I suspect you are right. Thanks SM
  8. Real world situation: 1. I don't like the Sony menus; 2. I really don't like the Sony service. I bought the second A6000 because the first one was defective. I actually bought one new and within a day it was not working properly. Store took it back and gave me a new one. New one had the same problem. Within a week it didn't work. Store-"Never seen anything like this before" and gave me a new one. Third one I took on a trip. Stopped working just as I was getting into good photo territory. Far from home, very, very frustrated. Took photos with Iphone. Camera was sent to Sony and about 2-3 months later I had it back. 3. Would like to own full frame once in my life. 4. When looking for full frame, everyone steered me to the X-T2. I don't think they get an extra commission for this. Some a camera crazy people. One guy works in store and is professional the rest of the time. He was wild about Sony full frame a year ago. Has had D750 and many many cameras. Now he claims he doesn't touch anything but the X-T2. 5. Could there be a more retro and interesting camera out there? Using it was like I was 30 years younger and on a first date. Have to give this some thought. The replies are quite helpful. SM
  9. Perfect world situation: Buy the D750 now because it is so reasonable. Get the kit lens and then some primes. Then get X-T2 if I can peddle my 2 Sony a6000 and lens. No law against owning two systems. Thanks for great advice. SM
  10. Jigesh: You also got rid of your Nikon gear? I assume that both cameras produced better images than X-T2, I am just wondering how much difference there might be. Apparently not enough difference for quite a few people to move from FF Nikon to the X-T2. Thanks SM
  11. You are right on most of those things. 1. Not professional 2. Look at photos online; 3. But take away the 16 x 20 and let's say I want to print quite a bit bigger than that. If I go somewhat/quite a bit bigger than 16 x 20 will the resolution and image quality be effected. I have a friend who has a full frame camera. His photos seem richer looking (Canon 6D). I tried out a Canon 80D. I tried out a Nikon D5600. I could see fairly easily that the Nikon photos had better resolution. Two identical photos taken under as close as you can get circumstances. One is Nikon D750 and other is Fuji XT-2. Unless you did the pixel peeping could you tell much difference. Also, I don't go around taking photos in extremely low light usually. . .but sometimes I do. Notice much difference there. I had Canon gear and lost it all. Have Sony A6000. Not too crazy about the menu. Thanks for patience. SM
  12. Thanks drandyperry. Very helpful. You traded your Nikon equipment in on the Fuji. If you don't do that, do you know of good places to sell gear (Sony)? Thanks for the help!! SM
  13. I can't afford to pay you to go back but thank you for the insight. SM
  14. That link is a tough one. Could not open it.
  15. Serious? One of the best ff and you don't miss it? Did you keep it also? Thanks SM
