Fujifilm X-T20 AF button and other PRO functions

I'm thinking about sell all my Canon gear (70D, 24-70 f/4, 50 f/1.8 and 10-18 f/4-5.6) and buying new Fujifilm X-T20 + 18-55 f/2.8-4 and some prime lens - not sure if 35 or 50.

I never had any Fujifilm camera, so I'm wonder if there is possible to autofocus (remap setting function button) by buttons AE-L or AF-L. I'm used to focus by AF-ON on my Canon DSLR and this is crucial for me (I don't like to focus by half-press shutter button).

I'm also wondering if it is possible to use X-T20 for professional work. If this SLR camera has same reliability as DSLR. I make living by freelancing as visual artist (mostly photojournalism, but sometimes portraits, architecture, weddings, short documentary - video production) and I'm fine with Canon 70D, but there are few things, that I missing on my 70D - small size, silent shutter, dynamic range, less moiré on videos and 60FPS in 1080p. And it looks like this compact camera has all of it. I hope that X-T20 brings to my images something new, especially in photojournalism. Are these expectations wrong?

I absolutely love Fujifilm colours (skin colour, ambient light, grain) but I never shoot jpg, so it doesn't matter I guess?

Thanks for any comments.
