My interest in Fujifilm camera's was rekindled when they released the X-Pro1. When they announced and released the X-T1 this year I had to have one. Why, because it had everything that my old Nikon D300 doesn't have;

• Lighter
• Smaller
• More Mpix (16 versus 12)
• Lighter quality lenses
• Capable of mounting Leica and Nikon lenses (through the use of third party adapters).
• Tilt-screen
• Electronic View Finder (EVF)

So my Nikon gear went on sale, and the X-T1 with the Fujinon 18-55mm 1:2.8-4 R LM OIS kitlens found a way into my camera bag, and I skipped the Sony A7(r).
