The full frame sensor is just soooo much smoother and just...I dunno...silky? I agonized over the switch for quite a while but am not looking back now that I've switched. I went 45mp and holy cow it is so nice having that much headroom if I want to crop a bit.

I've also picked up back button focus as it's much easier on the bigger camera body. And that, perhaps more than anything else, has been a gamechanger. Way less 'oops lost focus let me get back there and do it again' with this thing. Today I was shooting boats coming through the inlet and I'd use the bbf centered on the boat THEN add fn1 button on the front programmed to hand off to 3d focus and that would essentially stick the focus box to that spot and allow me to reframe the shot. While in AF-C. I NEVER used AF-C on the Fuji.

I gotta think a lot of casual photogs who maybe got frustrated with their results on early DSLR stuff and gave up might have a different experience today. It surely is the case for me.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.
