I don't know whether it's the fact I left a whacking great credit kicking it's heels at WEX when I bought the 80-400 half price, or whether it's the apparent better shape of the new Nikon mirrorless, but I am starting to get excited about the forthcoming launch. Having a mirrorless from the same stable as my DSLR feels better. I always found a mismatch between Fuji and Nikon's way of doing things. Whilst not the end of the world, little things can irriate. So I await with interest the verdict on the Nikon's battery usage rate and of course the viewfinder freeze.....although this becomes less of an issue if I dedicate the DSLR to wildlife and action photography.

Well if the new Nikon mirrorless out performs the Fuji XT2 then I will have some serious review of kit going on. If the FF is successful then it will be easy for Nikon to make a DX version.

I don't see a DX sensor relevant for anything other than long reach photography...like wildlife. A DX mirrorless would only be of use if Nikon overcame all the previously mentioned impediments. I could happily settle with the D500 and long lenses for bird photography and a mirrorless FF for everything else.

The dilemma I have with bird photography persists..... is the D500 with its 1.5x multiplication factor, but inferior noise at high iso, the best choice? Or would a D850 with its superior noise handling and crop ability be better? I am in no rush to change the D500 for a D850, in the absence of any clear winner on this count. But I would like a FF camera again. IF the FF mirrorless Nikon impresses, I may add it as the FF option. But if the Nikon falls short, then I may swop the D500 for a D850. I could always use the wife's FZ2000 as a walk around camera for both of us...I invariably end up carrying it anyway!! My concern, as always, with large MP sensors, is the inevitble need for improved technique to maximise the quality. Not sure I would capitalise on it's potential us8ng it as a walkaround. It would need to be my more static use body. I genuinely hope Nikon have raised the bar in the right directions, on the new mirrorless.

Eric, what ISO are you using on the D500 when you get noise? I dont see this with my D500 but I dont have to boost ISO. My D500 is in UK so I cant test easily but I can look through images.

Is that the film speed dial image #4 top left... The lens looks like a (wobbly) consumer lens...

Yes the lens looks like the zoom 24-70. I guess all dials will have multi features. I expect the layout to be very conventional. So left side of photo (shutter release side of camera) the dial will give EV compensation and maybe MASP selection. The dial at other end of camera will give bracketing, shutter rate (HI, Cont, Single up to 8? fps), possibly in camera Panorama, etc.
