X-Pro 2 or D800? Decisions Decisions

Hello Everyone,

I would like some helping picking between these two cameras. I currently own the X-Pro 2 and the 35mm F2. It is a nice little package with outstanding image quality. I did notice though that the af hunts a bit inside my apartment when trying to take pictures of my toddler.

I check the local ads every few days just to see whats out there and there happens to be a D800 for $1250 and a 50mm f1.8g for $160. The shutter count is only 5700 and it seems to be in pretty good condition. Do you think I should return my X-Pro 2 and 35mm for the D800?

I don't like starting threads like this because I feel like I cant let others make these decision for me but I don't know if saving $170 and getting the D800 will be the better decision or keeping the latest and greatest from fuji is the wiser option.

Thanks,

Bobby
