Or the others that are leading the way in the mirrorless market. The trend seems to be that smaller is better but then use the same size sensors as DSLRs. Adding appropriate glass lends to an unbalanced with too small of a body attached to a large lens. For those of us that prefer to hand hold for most of our photos, it is difficult to use comfortably. When I first considered mirrorless I tried the Fuji XT-1 with their native 100-400. My impressions of the handling was that it was unweildy at best. The body with a smaller prime was a joy to use although my large hands made it a bit cramped. Since a large proportion of my photography is wildlife long lenses are a part of life.

That's why I maintain there will be a market for full size bodies designed with good ergonomics but mirrorless.

Exactly, in most regards a balanced perspective is a good thing.

I completely concur, not the entire market, but a viable subset.

Unfortunately data is often suspect. Just look at how they cherry pick and even falsify data in an attempt to support the global warming religion.

I, for one, have been truly impressed at how such a large number of scientists who don't even know each other have been able to maintain the global warming hoax/myth. It's mind boggling to think of the organizational skills and sheer effort involved. The flat earth society and lunar landing hoax folks never even came close to this complexity.... go figure... :)

Those who shout the loudest frequently garner an inappropriate amount of attention, and yet sometimes are unable to comprehend the facts of a situation. Some of those with true understanding don't like to be identified as heretics or to be very vocal for a number of reasons. However a discussion on "global warming" or "climate change" or "Earth's natural cycles" is really a different topic and not pertinent to this thread.

Any problems with the Fuji X-T1 are easily solved with a battery grip. I have one and the battery grip makes a very comfortable hand hold.

You're quite right, I shouldn't have bit...
