\n\nSo, despite everything, it looks like Nikon (or perhaps Canon) wins this round. Once you realize that you can turn a D600 into a complete FX system for about $1200 it simply makes all the other options seem ridiculous. The only real question is whether to upgrade to the D600 or wait for a successor with built-in GPS and WiFi (or a successor to the 6D with a 100% viewfinder and — hopefully — a better sensor).\n
Addendum
\nI should really cost the Sony NEX system as an option.\n\n \t- NEX-6 Body $850, but I'd be inclined to pay an extra $150 for the folding 16-50mm \"power zoom\" kit lens. (The NEX-7 is $1200 for the body; I don't care for the $1350 kit lens option.)
\n \t- 16mm f2.8 Prime (and it's a pancake) — $250
\n \t- 35mm f1.8 Prime — $450
\n \t- 50mm f1.8 Prime — $300
\n \t- And there's a 55-210mm f4.5-6.3 telephoto zoom — $350
\n \t- Total (strict apples-to-apples) for NEX 6 and three primes — $1850
\n \t- Total (strict apples-to-apples) for NEX 7 and three primes — $2200
\n \t- Add the compact zoom and telephoto zoom — $2350

\nPerhaps I should stop dismissing Sony's NEX cameras out of hand. The lens selection remains limited, but it's less limited than Fuji's and they've got their bases covered now (there's even a 10-18mm ultra-wide zoom now), and Sony has by far the best video capability (60p) along with every gimmicky feature you can think of.","$updatedAt":"2024-06-05T09:10:30.276+00:00",path:"full-frame-micro-four-thirds-or-bust-",_created:"2024-07-09T20:29:21.701Z",id:"4939",_modified:"2024-07-09T20:29:21.701Z","$id":"4939",_path:"post/path=full-frame-micro-four-thirds-or-bust-"}}
