lucky indeed! My mom mentioned wanting a camera tonight which I'm hoping to use as a means to justify a new piece of kit as well!

You are definitely way better off with an M7. Much better camera than the MP.

Your wife understands the Good Stuff, and (it appears) why it's good. Consider yourself lucky.
