So its clear he's missing a few links in his grasp of camera function. Great with typing out caricatures of people based on this non grasp of the basics of what certain cameras are all about and what certain other aren't. Why do I need a Nikon D800 full frame 36mp camera when I can just shoot with a 16 Mp APS-C cropped Fuji pseudo rangefinder listing for $999? Because there is little overlap in what these camera are all about. If you bought and used to of the rez Nikon why would you even look at the Fuji? The 800 now 810 is the king of full frame cameras when you need the highest resolution and tonal range possible. The fuji is when quality is not so much the issue as you are shooting a cropped camera which is all about compactness and low price point and trying to pass itself off as a bargain basement Leica.
