Especially with the cropping possibilities of the D850. I recently took only the D800 and a 50mm to Paris for two days due to space constraints on the train. Compact, not super heavy, happily cropped away in postprocessing. It would have been nice to have a zoom to get this shot, but I'm satisfied with the result.

I have been a Nikon shooter for over 15 years. I found the weigh of my D500 to be to much for my back. Traded my Nikon for Olympus gear with a OMD M1 Mark 2. Bought Pro lens series and have been very happy with the kit.

Olympus has the M1 Mark2 on sale today for $899.00, great price.

I have been shooting with the Olympus EM1 Mark ll for 5 years now and I love this camera, and Olympus and others have great deals on this camera now. I paid $2,000 for mine and Olympus is offering it for $799.00 now. You won't be sorry.

1. Don't care how old you are, VR is made to keep your images steady. I believe you are working up a rationale to purchase the Olympus.
2. Many here make the mistake in buying a mirrorless only to find that their hands don't fit as well because of the mini size of the camera. I strongly suggest you put the Olympus in your hands before you buy.
3. I shoot wildlife, a long lens on a mirrorless camera is not that much different in weight than a FF DSLR.
4. a 4/3 sensor is much smaller than the FF sensor on your D750. But, if your not going to go large on your images, then the 4/3 sensor should work out well for snapshot and cell phone type images.

You won’t be disappointed with Olympus OM-D10. I have the mark 11 version.

My experience with M 4/3 is with the Olympus OMD EM1. The OMD EM1 Mark ii with the 12-40mm f 2.8 PRO lens comes in at 1.061 Kg/2.34 lbs. The OMD EM1 Mark iii with the 12-100mm f4 Pro lens comes in at 1.277 Kg/2.84 lbs. BOth cameras have excellent IS (5 stops).

About 18 months ago we made the switch from Canon DSLRs to the Olympus EM1 M2 manily for weight and size reduction. Not only is the body lighter but so are the lenses. I looked at the Fuji but the lenses are very big and heavy compared to the Oly. The additional advantages such as 5 stop IBIS and WWYSIWYG viewing are addded bonuses. After you switch you will wonder why you waited so long.

I still have my D750 for occasional use but I went to a Panasonic G-9 and Panasonic/Leica & Olympus lenses for my travel photography because of the weight issue and the lack of stabilization in my Sigma Art fast lenses, I just could not hold the rig steady enough in low light without blur occurring. Problem solved, thanks to the camera in body stabilization that works well even though most primes aren’t stabilized. I can still shoot well with stabilized lenses with my Nikons but I no longer want to travel with them. The M4/3 systems are very good. Good luck.

It may be time to go to a "bridge" camera.
You will get what you need for almost all situation in a small light package.

I love Fuji you could also look at the Fuji XT-30.

I'm 76 and switched to the Olympus mirrorless about 4 years ago. I really like it. Much lighter and the lenses are a whole lot smaller. What is even better is the in-body stabilization. I had the OM-D-M1-Mk II which has 5 axis stabilization. I now have the Mk III. Love it.

I switched to Olympus m4/3 cameras some years ago to cope with a shoulder injury, and was way too satisfied with the quality, the options, and the lower weight of the system to ever go back to a full size DSLR or give up my wonderfully useful electronic viewfinder. I shoot landscape, birds, street, family and vacation, and architecture successfully. I print up to 24x36 well enough to manage successful sales and gallery shows, but I have no need for wall-size prints so I’m not sure about that. The Oly cameras I’ve used have great image stabilization and though my hands are not very steady I can hand hold down to 1/10 second. The lenses are lightweight enough that I can carry a camera and 6 lenses ( 3 zooms and 3 primes) covering 9-300 in a 5 lb backpack or sling bag. I agree with the suggestion that before buying any camera you should hold one and see if it fits in your hands and if the button/control array seems workable for you. The one downside for me is noise in low light high ISO images. Also, the Olympus camera division has recently changed hands and there is concern about the future, but I figure it will outlast me so I’m OK with that.

There's no need to spend $1000 on that gimmick. Resistance bands, a pullup bar, and pushup handles will make anyone strong.

My switch was from a Sony a73 to a Fuji XT3. I’ve been pleased with my photos with the smaller sensor and like the lighter equipment.
