I did exactly the same. I had a nice D700 setup with lots of nice glass. I sold it all, and used the proceeds to by an OM-D EM-5 and a full set of primes. (Free camera!) My D700 was great when my kids were very small, and my photos were mostly taken inside my house. Now they are 6 and 12, and I found I didn't feel like taking my D700 on outings with my kids. I was missing too many shots by not having my camera. You know: "the best camera is the one you have with you."

I'm hoping that the new Olympus EM-1 (a video leaked last week of that) will be a big seller for them, and take some the business pressure off.

Thanks for the pointer to Thom Hogan's mirroless site, I only read his Nikon site. And Ming Thein is a favorite of mine, good to see him on HN.
