Well, to be honest, I haven't used the OM4-T since I bought M7 in
2003, and the M7 not very much since the R-D1. But what's the point of
selling those two?!!!

I shoot quite a lot of events with the E-3, 6000 frames two weekends
ago, and tomorrow, 2 more events. I will probably use the Mamiya 7II
for the informal event and definitely the E-3 for another night of
taiko goodness.

The M8.u is the walk-around and low light camera.

The XPan is a specialty camera, it's my favorite too, got a whole book
on it: http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/745963
, but it's not an every day camera, not does it do headshots.

Do I *need* another camera? Probably not, so there is always the
options of keeping the money in the bank.
