This is an interesting thread; I'm also downsizing, big-time. I will sell everything except a GH4 and the two Pany 2.8 zooms, perhaps keeping my flashes. That means dumping a slew of prime and zoom lenses, including the 100-300 and 75-300 you mentioned - I never liked the 100-300, but the Oly was okay. I don't need their long range because I have an RX10M3, which has a better, sharper, faster, weather-protected lens. Cameras being unloaded include a GH3 and E-M5II/grip, and an original RX10.

The GH4 was a very recent purchase (this month) and reflects my growing interest in video. I also will probably keep my DP2M for stellar stills, such as landscapes and portraits. A GoPro often rides atop my cameras - it will fit on both the GH4 and RX10M3. Another benefit is that everything (except the Sigma) will be weather-protected.

That's my plan - it will mean a lot of time on eBay and umpteen trips to the UPS store; not looking forward to it.
