Same as me that's why I have an abacusI'm a retro junkie
Don't do itFF vs Crop, most customers won't even notice, it's just my pixel peeping which led me down FF and GM lenses.
I'm going to put up all my gear on sale here first. Then it's off to the dealers.
Don't do it
Just remember take into account sterling and interest fluctuations over a couple of years time scale you bought at the correct time. Good lens in particular are still good glass down the road your a Sony Guru ask yourself if the next A7 really won't do what you need I can tell you for sure my Canon 5d3 on occasions would refuse or hunt for focus how many wedding shots did you missI have just too much money sat in the Sony gear, I'm going to do some number crunching to see what it's all worth on the second hand market vs trade in.
Also decide what Fuji gear id be getting to replace it with and see how much I'd actually be banking to see if it's worth it.

I had Sony A7 with good old legendary glass, now switched to A6300 with crop lenses and I'm better
One thing for Fuji is that there's plenty of used ones for sale at tempting prices... there's so much Fuji kit for sale here the for sale section might as well be renamed the Fuji Mart.Mate forget fuji. Just spend that extra 500 quid on a nice weekend away somewhere you never been to take pics
Honestly dont sell your gear or buy anything else unless you are lacking a super key feature.
I just finish watching the master of photography and although all the images were sensational when printed and shown, many of them were taking it ridiculously high ISO shots where Leica camera's are not a patch over Nikon/SonyFuji.
Point being is that if you was to stop pixel peeping and print your shots taken even with a canon rebel, You will be surprised how well they turn out.
Watch master of photography. Thats a cure to GAS(Temporarily)
Gents, I think I will get the 16-35 Sony/Zeiss, the search doesn't offer much help, so, in a naive and simple way, yes or no?
PS: I don't need the 2.8 G master.......

Plus 1 for f4 a really good lensThe Sony Zeiss 16-35mm f4 is a really good lens, a lot better then the over-priced 24-70mm f4.
Welcome backSo I'm em back sorta, I thought an A7ii & 28-70 kit for £1200 was a bargain so snapped it up.
Looking forward to properly trying this out v my X-Pro 2 setup to see what I prefer, honestly think I'll prefer using the Fuji but the output of the Sony.
The only reason reason I'm trying Sony again is because of the X-Trans sensor in the Fuji, its great system, brilliant to use, amazing lenses but I run into too many issues with RAW processing, I'm also contemplating a dual DSLR/Mirrorless setup; having an A7ii body gives me greater options to adapt other gear from a potential DSLR body especially if I were to go back into Sony land or look at Canon.

Question why not print some of your images you may enjoy seeing your workThis also one of my reasons, do I really need such a high end system with G Master lenses if I never print or do much with my photos, just got over 20,000 photos sat there in Lightroom.
Going Fuji will see a good few K's may way. Mmmmm
Oh I dunno ufffff mmmm

Isn't that the exact reasoning for Rizvan not actually 'needing' the kit he has now? We'd all like to have the best of everything, but kit has reached a point where there is a smaller and smaller difference between mid-range and high-end kit.
For what he shoots, there's probably nothing stopping him getting equally impressive results with crop kit. Saving some money along the way is always nice too!
But you already have the Sony. Stick with it unless you need the money for something else?This also one of my reasons, do I really need such a high end system with G Master lenses if I never print or do much with my photos, just got over 20,000 photos sat there in Lightroom.

ROFLCOPTER!!! Rookies, go back into hibernation, save us all
Always wanted to get a Epson A3 photo printer and start printing but a) don't have the room at the moment and b) struggling to find the time these days as my weekends are spent looking after the baby.
There's quite a few factors including time and the fact my photography has taken a back seat which has got me looking at the Fuji system.
Back in my DSLR days my favourite setup was the D7000, grip and the Nikkor 17-55mm f2.8.
As Wissel says you could print on line the Epson SC-P600 can go in a cupboard if tight on space and the wifi printing is a doddleAlways wanted to get a Epson A3 photo printer and start printing but a) don't have the room at the moment and b) struggling to find the time these days as my weekends are spent looking after the baby.
