I think…actually I know, that if I had not already been invested in L Mount when the S5ii came out, I would have gone with a pair of FX30’s with probably the A7iv for primarily stills but occasional hybrid use.
If Lumix (or Leica or Sigma) don’t have something like an S2R available by end of March, in stock, then it’s fairly inevitable for me it will be throwing my lot in 100% with Sony.
Pair of FX30’s and a single A7RV which will allows me to do away with the 70-200 and crop instead because you know, megapixels.
I would rather NOT switch primarily from a cost point of view because buying one single body and selling maybe one lens (the 70-200) if any ‘S2R’ has around 60mp, is a MUCH better option than trading 3 bodies and 7 lenses for a new system!
So we will see.
I think if making a decision from scratch re. a system for my specific needs at any point this year, it would be as above.
Nikon a close second and Fuji third.
Or maybe I’ll just trade the S1H and get another S1R which are uber-cheap on the used market now…
Cheap, but 60mp vs 47mp allows a bit more cropping latitude for my stills work if I want to shift the 70-200 and I’d rather have PDAF even though for stills it’s less of an issue.
