T2i vs Fuji XT1

Did a totally unscientific survey the other day cause I was thinking about replacing my trusty old T2i and thinking about going mirrorless. Borrowed friend's XT1 and tried to match settings.

Canon with 17-55 and Fuji with 18-55 2.8-4

1/100 - F4 - ISO 800 - both @ 55, both with IS enabled, both focused on nearest eye. I think Fuji may have had face detection on.

In Lightroom:

Canon - set process version to Camera Faithful and checked default lens correction

Fuji - set process version to Asita Soft

No other changes made.

Unless pixel peeping - can see little reason to upgrade. If I'm going to upgrade I think I'll save up to go FF. Fuji is nice - but focusing is a pain - definitely a better walk-around camera. Although - for a walk-around these days I usually just grab my iPhone. Of course probably a better test would have been the 16-55 Fuji lens?

Anyway happy with my ancient T2i
