That’s the combo I’m lusting for. Meantime I get by with a Fuji XQI. Only one dial for shooting mode. Everything else controlled from buttons on the back, which are programmable, and the menus. No viewfinder, which I’ve gotten used to—except in bright sun. But I get astounding images—to me anyway—with it. Here's one from the state cross country championship here last weekend. <https://www.flickr.com/photos/eeweir/30515182820/in/album-72157672569972664/> The X-Q1 was my “wide angle” lens for this occasion. I shot the races with my K-5 and a DA 4-5.6/50-200 ED WR. Here’s one of my favorites with that combo <https://www.flickr.com/photos/eeweir/30841196065/in/album-72157674809790741/>. FWIW, the team I’ve been following were state champs in their division for the third year running. All the kids are refugees.
