That sums it up very well Tom.

I decided NOT to go for the xpro1 because I felt it was turning into a bigger and bigger lump in the pocket.
I have found the combination of the X100 in my pocket and the D7000 with a 55-200 in my hand are an ideal walkaround, holiday combo.

Although a D800 may displace the D7000 in due course

;-)

Eric- I agree. I keep the x100 in my car and it is the one I use most, but if I know I'm going out for a "photo walk" I'll take the xp1 - almost always with the 35mm (50mm equivalent) and it is really taking you back to the 60s and I love it. The xp1 and a lens or two is still less expensive than the 24-70 nikkor and more fun (but not as versatile :-)

. Funny how you go through phases where most shots are tele shots and then back to more "normal" ranges... I'm in the "normal" phase right now (at least as normal as I can be :-)

Basically, the x100 is the most fun you can put in your pocket after the iphone...

Cheers,

Tom

Yes, I certainly agree with that but I do love the XP1 with 60mm.
Must be in my tele phase!

If this keeps up, I might even lose a little weight. I seem to be taking more aimless walks lately :-)
