Thanks for looking and the kind words, Nathan.  Not only does the X-T2 
have more resolution, but, for me, it seems to provide better exposure 
adjustment and better manual focus aids.  It works nicely with the 90mm, 
but the old 60 Macro really allows me to get in close when the subject 
doesn't spook too easily.
