Fuji!!!
5

I did it!… I made the switch! I am a Fuji man now. I traded in my Canon 1DX and L lenses for an XT2 and pro Fuji glass.  Don't get me wrong, I loved my Canon gear. Also, I liked the way Canon  as a company treated me. But it was time for a change.  A couple years ago I was able to use an X100S for a few months  and I felt so inspired. I hadn't felt that good in a long time.  As a working photographer the danger of allowing your work to become perfunctory does exist. I wasn't really caring about what I was doing. No I don't think that Fuji cameras are magical but I do think  that I need to feel good again. Also after shooting a football game two weeks ago... walking a half mile from the media parking lot to The stadium and then walking back after the game (a very action-packed and close game that left me pretty tired ) that heavy gear was not doing me any favors   Personally , I can't wait to learn the system. I know it will be a challenge. That will be half the fun!

What do you guys think? When you switched, what were your ups and downs? What made you switch?
