Ray, the Fuji XPro1 (or X100 if you discount that it has a fixed lens) is the closest equivalent to your M6 but with AF instead of rangefinder focussing. Manual focussing is best done through the EVF rather than back TFT or OVF. However the 4/3 sensors whilst being the most popular sensor size doest (IMHO) provide the quality you get from an DX sized sensor.

Manual focussing is best done through the EVF rather than back TFT or OVF.I liked the XPro 1 I tried, but I like doing wide angle work with a camera like that, so I'll hold out for something close to a full frame model?? I did get my hands on the Sony 7 mirrorless with the EVF, but they didn't have a charged battery. I may wonder back in a few days and shoot a few images onto my own card and she how that look on the computer. In the past I was always left wanting for Sony still image quality??? But it still a tiny sensor for all those MP????

There is a 12mm f2.8 coming from Zeiss next year. This on the XPro1 is equivalent to a 18mm FX. I use my Sigma (Nikon fit) 12-24mm on a Kipon adapter if I want this wide a lens. You hardly need to focus this lens so whilst it is large on the camera it is a dream to use.

   :hi::thumbsupTo all the comments I agree, I am not quite as up to date as some but I find that what I have works very well foe me I love my d200 as it reminds me of my dearly loved f2s,that I still miss but I would not go back to the hassles of film I also have a d80 as a back up with a different lens and a p5000 the p5000 is a backup to the backup and not much good for anything that moves faster than a turtle. I can never catch the feline with it, no prob with the dslr. be well Ed a fine is a tax for doing wrong, a tax is a fine for doing well!!!!!

Couldnt resist it. Had to order the Fuji 18-55mm f2.8-f4 zoom lens for my XPro1, so hopefully it will arrive here before Christmas so I can test it out. I now dont need to get the XE1 as well or the NEX6..... Famous last words

Well you cant take money with you when you die and if it is the bank it doesnt grow or get much interest so might as well get some enjoyment from having it available by purchase of nice toys.

Sorry about the size of the attachment but I think it is justified ... What is the verdict on the Nikon 1 V2? Ugly as sin but it seems it can deliver. V2, FT-1, 300 mm f4, NEF converted to 16-bit TIFF in NX2, tweaked in LR4 (LR4 has no support for V2 NEFs yet). It isn't a D4 or a D800, but it is not bad.

Ed, What ISO was that taken at? How does the V1 and V2 results compare. .

That one was base iso .... But iso 400 is ok with a bit of noise suppression in LR. V2 does not AF so well with FT-1 as the V1 in low light. Fixable in firmware I guess Ed
