    • Well, I've other gear for specific jobs.  For instance I have a Fuji X-T5 that came along for a special birds-in-flight thing -- that fit a special lens, but it just sits on the shelf since that gig finished.  The way the IBIS works in that camera bugs the hell out of me. Anyone want to buy a used X-T5?  How about a fuji 150-600mm?  Got a 2x extender as well. 
    • You probably deserve a medal fuzzy, for being satisfied with what you've got for ten years and not being seduced by camera "lust".
    • The GH5 has been my workhorse for almost a decade now.  For whatever reason, the need to move on from it has never been necessary, so I've stuck with it.  For instance, AF is not an issue.  Manual focus is how lenses get used by me.  Slow-mo is a thing to do less of, not more of, imo. A full 10 years on, what does a different camera offer; like really offer?  An extra stop of exposure?  An extra bit of DR?   Looking at a GH7 the thought is, "MMM, pretty nice."  But then what?  A big difference in ... what ... gets captured?  Maybe the market has matured TOO much for me?
    • You'd think so, but no!  If you're using like an f/1.2 lens, you can have surprisingly big dust spots on your sensor and never be any the wiser.  The more stopped down, the more they appear.  From what I remember, and I might be wrong about this, it's bascally the same effect as using a large diffuse light source vs a small point source - put your hand next to a white card near the large diffuse source and you'll get a blurry, indistinct shadow.  Do the same with a small point source and you'll get a well-defined crisp shadow.  It's the same on a smaller scale with sensor dust.
    • I did think of that, but took it out of my reply because I was thinking that anything on the sensor would be in-focus regardless of what the lens was doing.  Maybe I'm wrong though, not sure..
