Do you believe the Fuji X20 (forgive me for mentioning it, but i find the use of the zoom as if it was DSLR, great benefit) would be superior, should I wait a while?

Nobody can give a full definitive answer to this question now. Patience. We need full size samples from a full production Fuji X20 with a full production firmware at the very least to begin to form an honest informed opinion. We have neither now. Drawing any conclusions or educated guesses at this point might be totally misleading. The many major changes from the Fuji X10 make the X 20 a very different camera on paper. In reality...we shall see....

It's much more than just samples to me. How a camera behaves on a shoot is actually more important than pixel comparsions to other cameras. I can get around differences in IQ most of the time when I'm shooting but nothing is more frustrating than a camera that is counter-intuitive and proprietary.

Fuji's cameras have not impressed me of late with the software/firmware side of things. And the inane amount of firmware updates on nearly every recent enthusiast model tells me I'm certainly not alone with that opinion.
