[QUOTE="PapaST, post: 295295, member: 8330"] What do you want to use it for? The quick decision is the AW1 because the waterproofing can open up new doors to your photography. Here's my thing about mirrorless and my personal experience. I tried a Nikon mirrorless and went to a Sony NEX6 mirrorless. I was looking for better sensor performance and more DSLR functionality. What ended up happening to me was I was hunting for good glass for better IQ than the standard kit lenses. The price of good glass wasn't cheap and all of a sudden I was buying all new fairly expensive lenses for a system that was great but didn't perform as well as my D7100 or D600. So the real plus was the compact size. Only now I had all these lenses to tote around as well so my mirrorless bag was getting up there and I thought I might as well carry my DSLR. So for me my mirrorless turned into a smaller DSLR setup. And I lost the simplicity of just having a fixed lens camera. That being said... get the AW1... you've got money to burn. ;) [/QUOTE]
