    BTW, another question:

    I'm almost 95% sure I'm going to get rid of my Nikon gear and buy a Fuji XT2. I have an old Nikon D90 I don't use anymore, and a D610 full frame that I use as my main DSLR. Been using a Fuji X70 since April for my day-to-day camera and I've really fallen for the Fuji film simulations, and the simplicity of shooting JPG images as if I'm choosing film at the moment of shooting, rather than taking the RAW images into Lightroom for skys-the-limit editing.

    The only thing I can see having trouble with on the XT2 is shooting bands in low light, which I don't do that often but want to have the best gear for. I've been looking at a lot of photos online of bands and see some good results, probably taken around f1.4 - f1.8 and with some noise/grain that looks perfectly fine on some of the simulations. I figure at 24MP, and ability to shoot RAW, I've at least got a comparable level of output to the D610, which is also 24MP.

    Any thoughts? I think some of you have made DSLR > Fuji switches, correct?
