Our "window well" kitten turned four weeks old last Sunday. It's still on milk substitute but it's using the litter box and getting faster every day. Also started playing with toys a couple of days ago. The dogs are still not amused!

Got a Canon T80 with FD AC-zoom 35-70mm, and had to try out the lens on my EM10.2.

Thanks!

I couldn't resist the X-H1 w/battery grip kit (which I haven't used but it is a great deal w/ 2 extra batteries and can use the battery grip as a charger) and the XF-16-55mm/2.8 when the price dropped so low. It is BIG but similar in grip shape to the GX8, and I appreciate the big body when used with big lenses. The in body stabilization works really well but drains the battery fast. The camera defaults to having the IBIS on constantly, but battery life is much more acceptable when the camera is set to use the IBIS only when the shutter trips. Dual memory card slots, can have RAW assigned to one and JPG to the other, or sequential fill, or video to one, etc. I'm not into video and haven't tried using it.

I have an X100F and am used to the Fuji controls and menus. I like the X-H1's physical controls on the top of the body and prefer them over the X100F. The EFV and rear display (tilts out and angles to one side only) are great. The rear display is also a touch screen, but it's very slow to sense touch or respond vs the GX8 which is seamless. I only use the touch screen as function buttons - swipe up/down/left/right can each be assigned a function. As with the X100F there is a great thumb joystick to move the focus point.

So far I'm loving the X-H1, and appreciate the greater resolution and improved high iso range over the GX8. I've been trying out all my vintage glass on it, and it is nice having the big body to counter the weight of some of them.
