congrat....!

so what is the risk of buying discontinued system?

When the camera and lens suddenly broke or malfunction on middle of the road, the warranty is no more and trouble on seeking replacement parts. You will waste your time and money.

Yeah, so if you accept the risk gratefully, you still can make great photos from using discontinued system!

Oh, and...don't forget to install Magic Latern to greatly power up your little M buddy!

I have been buying different cameras since the 1950s- I have never had a failure within a warranty period--never--- Only two of them ever died at all and long after the warranty period was spent. If you are worried, buy 2 of everything. As soon as I heard of the big announcement for tomorrow-- I bought a NEW M camera for a backup. It's what I want so it's what I will have come "R" or high water!
