    First of all I must say I have a small fortune invested in canon lenses, bodies, flashes and triggers for my professional photography.

    But for travel I want something less obtrusive.
    So I invested in mirrorless.

    On a recent travel to Greece and the Islands I did take my canon gear but brought a mirrorless for walk around.

    This was a very nice experience.
    I was no longer a photographer.
    I was a tourist, I was a street photographer, I was stealth.

    Now home in post processing I am very pleased.
    I have to look at the data screen to see which shots were with which camera system.

    I love the retro look, I love the range finder, I love the no noise.
    I love not sticking out.
    I love not having to choose a lens and concentrate on the composition and the exposure settings.

    I did not invest in the Canon M,
    I traveled with a Fuji X100S with a fixed lens.

    This will not take the place of my canon system for work, but will be my new walk around.
    I have no plans to get into the Fuji interchangable lens systems.
    With the Canon 5DIII and the Fuji X100S I feel I have two of the best cameras in the world.
    They just are for different assignments.

    I have images I would never had been able to take with the Canon.

    This has really changed things.

    Try it.

    I may been kicked off the site for talking Fuji praises, but this is real.
    I have lost all interest in looking at a Leica system after this experience.

    I've heard good things about the Fuji. Glad to hear it has worked out for you.
