Essentially, I was saying to klaus that the only major reason for changing from the EM1 is the AF tracking and the loss of seeing the subject when the EVF renews. Otherwise, MFT is fabulous and the Olympus system gives me everything I need for all my work, including studio with just the one exception of action photo, but that has become a deal breaker for me unfortunately. I could not dream of a better travelling system and the 75 f1.8 and the 40-150 f2.8 give me superb portraits, as do the 25 f1.8. The firmware update system is fantastic, like Fuji's and the fact that you can update lenses and housing in one shot is so easy. So no complaints in general about mirrorless, MFT and Olympus. Now, there are rumours about an EM2 for Fotokina and have any of you heard anything? At one point, the mirrorless manyfacturers will hopefully solve the phase detection problem and give us the Af tracking we all need.
With respect to Fuji, I agree with all that has been said and could easily see myself using an XT2 if it were not for the AF tracking.
Again I agree with Dave and Vinantonio's comments, which leads me in the direction of a D500 with the right lenses for normal work, plus the 300 f4 and the 200-500 or a Sigma 150-600 sport.
Thank you for all the replies and ideas, which will help me getting around my own thought process.
