I can get a Fuji XA1 with the 16-50 for 299€. I have the XE1 and XT1. Am I missing something special by not having the XA1, like better fine detail for landscapes with its Bayer sensor?

Yes.

You already have a nice stable of cameras. Do you really need another?

So, is it just G.A.S. or is it a real need that your other cameras can't fulfill?

Good luck whatever you decide to do.

No GAS. I was wondering about the relative merits of the Bayer sensor for landscapes.

I would get in a split second a Fuji camera with fast AF. I feel frustrated when I get many portraits out of focus because the person being photographed was nervous and moving rapidly.

You have an X-E1 and an X-T1 ... Not sure what the X-A1 is going to bring to the table here.

The Bayer sensor, better for landscapes according to some?

Enrique

You just need a RAW converter that handles X-Trans properly; I believe there was a thread on here showing the difference the RAW converter actually made. X-A1 doesn't resolve any better than X-E1. It's the workflow that matters.

Lightroom's X-Trans performance is a real shame, because imo it's by far the most convenient RAW converter to use. In fact I still use it despite knowing I'm missing out on some foliage detail, the plug ins are just too good to do without.

What RAW Converter for Fuji do you recommend?

How about Fuji's own Silkypix or just n-camera RAW converter?
