Tried to be a bit provocative in my title but I am looking for opinions. I do have the 5Diii and it is my go-to for just about everything. I got the M during the huge price break a while back and that body with the 22mm and the 18-55mm and the adapter has been untouched for about a year. I have gotten some great photos with the M but the slow focus and the shutter lag (better after the firmware update but still slow) and the lack of a true viewfinder (without some more investment) have made it a rarely used spare. I've thought about bringing it along to use as a crop-based sensor to get more reach in conjunction with my usual kit, but then never do that. I have thrown it in my briefcase on a quick business trip but then wind up using my smartphone for a P&S quick snap or two because it is so easy and convenient. When the grandchildren are active, it is really tough to get a good picture with the M unless I can get them to be still (yeah, right).
None of the above is news or is earth-shattering information for any of us. I guess I am wondering why I have this camera. I am starting to think that if I want a smaller body with versatility that I'd have been better off with a M4/3 or a Fuji (if we ignore the price issues and the need for different lens lineup). I guess I just need some "counseling" here. No flaming desired but I'd like to hear others thoughts.
