My wife's favorite shot that she captured with her Nikon 1 J5: My favorite that I captured with my Fuji X-T2:

Today I sold and shipped my D800E and 2/3'rds of my lens trinity. For the first time since 1983, I don't own a SLR or D-SLR. It has been a long time coming to this decision and quite frankly feels a bit weird. My wonderful spouse even told me that I didn't need to sell it. I think I'll keep her...

Thanks @jdeg! I've decided to sell my SLR but listed it yesterday on Fred Miranda instead of the marketplace here. Can't wait to see what you come up with!
