Re: Some thoughts about EOS M, EOS R and Fuji

Fuji makes nice stuff. The size is reasonable if you dont want a DSLR. Their controls are more similar to older cameras. The primary reason I am staying in the M's is I am already invested in it. I dont want to buy a whole other system and start from scratch.
I have two M bodies and three M lenses plus the EF/EFS adapter. I got two of the M lenses, the original M body and the EF/EFS adapter on the original fire sale. If I told you what I paid for them your would be shocked. And it was all new.
I got the M3 body/EVF and 11-22mm for CHEAP. I have about $1200 invested in everything I just mentioned above. No joke.
Did I mention that I am CHEAP .
Cameras are electronic consumable items that depreciate the second you buy them. I dont want to pay top $$ for anything. With Fuji you pay, with Canon not so much. You just have to be smart shopper and strike while the iron is hot.

There is no argument for FF vs APS-c (or m43) with shallow DOF..as it's a law of physics and a very subjective personal thing if you want to make use of the shallow DOF only FF can offer
