I admire your Yorkshire approach!
But this is sort of a unique situation...here we are...lots of money spent on Nikon lenses (you really get screwed in the 2nd hand market). Fuji comes along with great products, mostly at about 25-33% of Nikon prices and about the same percent in weight (especially if you stick to just a few prime lenses).
If the D500 lasts half as long as my D300s (and it should) it will be a pretty cheap investment. I have a few lenses in the closet that I never should have purchases (200mm F2 anybody
but most of them will be worth more as a tax write off if I donate them to a school program at this point. So I trim my Nikon lens shelf a little and try to stay "somewhat" restrained in Fuji purchases...it's the best of all worlds
