The AF is brilliant but I haven't tried it with anything longer than the 24-70 yet.

Dual XQD, the Dual CF models are relatively rare any way but having XQD cards I didn't see the point in getting a CF one.

Mirrorless seems to cover all bases but there are times when a DSLR performs better, these times do seem to be less and less but there are situations where shooting is against the light where a DSLR works better.

I cant justify a Z9 or even upgrading my Z7. The Z7 is a good performer but newer cameras such as the Z9 and Fuji XH2 are so much more refined. Also APS-C is the new FX! My Fuji XH2S and XH2 have AF that performs better than my D850 which means that my Nikon inventory is in severe danger of going to MPB or Park Cameras for trade in.

Next few months of XH2 testing will tell.
Looking forward to hearing how you get on with the XH2 & XH2S.

40mp seems a lot for an APC-S sensor. I could imagine, noise will be a bigger issue than the XH2S sensor at 26mp.
