I have a D800 but I never use it anymore

I 've shot with the D800 extensively but never owned one due to its weight and size

Instead I bought a D600 and the Df

Sold both , the D600 due to its oil issue

The Df for it sit at home idle most of the time

My MFT is the more used gear and now will be the only system

I'd rather invest in MFT lenses than supporting 2 systems

The IQ difference is not big enough for me to justify keeping both

Once in a while I miss the battery capacity, and the shallow DOF of Nikon primes but an extra battery, and the Oly 75mm can alleviate some of that miss

I'm looking forward to using my newly acquired 40-150mm f2.8 (from FF release funds)

DSLRs are now passe for me , no need to look back

Using the bright EVF + histogram is more fulfilling experience to me than the OVF which requires constant chimping

Cheers,
