Every few months my minimalism GAS is kicking and once again I ask myself do I really need my GFX100SII with several lenses? It's a pleasure to shoot and even more so to edit those amazing files in LR. Zooming in being amazed by those incredible details. Hit export as jpeg and send it via whatsapp to my family who occassionally react with a thumbs up. Then those jpgs collect dust on my hdd until I feel nostalgic to look at some, being amazed again by the IQ. Not a penny I ever earned from photography, which isn't my goal. It's a several thousands bucks toy that I love to use as often as possible, motivating me to travel and leave the house. I never regret purchasing. Still I'm often dreaming about just selling it all and settle down with something like the Ricoh GR3x. Tiny, light, can bring everywhere and shoot even more often. Sharpness on par with good full frame gear. I used to have the GR3 28mm and miss it quite often.
Would you embrace the idea of minimalism? reducing gear. Never questioning what lenses to bring, not even a need of a bag. Pure photography. Later add the GRIV with 28mm as a second focal length and I'm all set. But I know at some point in future I would miss that medium format look that a GF55mm1.7 can give me. That 3D pop and background blur. But I can't justify owning both cameras.
