I currently own and use a Fuji X100 S with the 50mm accessory lens and love the camera, I also have a Ricoh GRII which is my hiking camera.
I used to have a Olympus E 510 which I used for photographing running events and my great granddaughters soccer games. I recently gave the E 510 and lenses to one of my granddaughters that has an interest in photography. I have been waiting to buy an replacement for the E 510 and am having difficulty making up my mind to go with a DSLR or another mirrorless camera.
If I go with a DSLR I am now interested in the K 70, it looks like a nice camera and would probably do the job for the soccer photos of my great granddaughter. I would also like to pursue some wildlife and macro opportunities. I am concerned about the heft and weight of a DSLR compared to a mirrorless, also not sure about just having only an optical viewfinder.
I probably would have bought a Fuji X2s but having a tilt or articulating lcd is a must for me.
Although I have enjoyed my fixed lens camera and I think I have 2 of the best out there, I am ready to take the plunge for a ILC again although I would most likely enjoy a nice zoom lens and maybe only change for a macro lens at times.
Thanks for taking the time to read all my babbling and I hope you can offer me some sound advice and tips although I realize the purchase decision is mine alone to make.

I am currently thinking of purchasing a K-S2 to supplement my Fuji X100S, used to use a Ricoh Gr which is a great camera but wanted a viewfinder thus the Fuji. Looking to replace an Oly E510 which I gave to my granddaughter. i was thinking of a Fuji Xt1 with the 18 x 55 but think it is priced too high for me, thus the K-S2.
