Sad to see you go, but I think you'll have a blast with that K1. I find it very attractive and the price means I'm willing to consider it as a second camera instead of a replacement.

Yes, for what this camera does the price is a joke and I'm gonna take advantage of that.

Just curious, were you not at all interested in D850? I mean, yes, the price of the K1 is sensational for what you get. But D850 really has my interest.

No not interested in D850.  I sure don't need to go above 36MP and don't need high FPS.  I have used different nikon cameras and in the end their sause is the same.  Now I know as a FACT that every camera manufacturer has that personal sauce, and even sony has its own look, but the files of the K1 is nothing that I have ever seen before.  The white balance and color behavior destroys nikon.  At least any of the Nikon cameras that I have used, the latest ones being my D4 and D500.  The K1 blows these out of the water in IQ including the D810 above iso 3200.

I'm done with nikon.
