My d700 is still my go to camera for serious work but a second quality camera in a smaller size is on my wish list.
The canon m50 is also worth considering as it would take my efs lenses with an adapter.

I really like the camera; it's compact, fast focussing and has a great range of lenses if you include the Lumixes.

Not taken today, but I found it again today. A photo I took on the first ever trip out I had on my SV a few years ago. There's definitely things I miss about it since I sold it. The Tracer is great and I love riding it but I don't feel any connection with it yet in the way that I did with my SV. I hope the guy who bought it off me is appreciating it.

I can empathise with that.

I was having a look at one of these (MkIII) the other day in Jessops in High Wycombe. Excellent VFM but they are aimed at entry level users and I worry I'd find it a bit lacking as a consequence. It's size really does appeal though as it's very nicely proportioned and something I'd take out and about a lot more. Plus it looks nice. Will probably wait until the Photography Show in March and try some in the hand before deciding.

Indeed. I'm very tempted.

I enjoy my VFR but it's a little too good. Very smooth and comfortable but that makes it a little sterile. I think a good bike needs some endearing flaw. Having said that I'm not sure what flaw the SV has. I do miss that punch out of corners though.

I don't remember those but I do remember getting tokens with Esso fuel that you could save up to get a set of glasses. I saved mine up and got the glasses, which all cracked and broke within a week.
