X-T1 Upgrade Advice: XT-4 or X-H1 with 16-55

Hi, the X-H1 is great at counterbalancing bigger lenses, and has a very comfortable grip. It's mostly a very capable camera and definitely a good upgrade from the X-T1 for the price it's going for right now. Nonetheless the X-T4 has yet to be announced and hit the shelves, so I wouldn't presume to be able to make a judgement right now. If I can give you an advice: use the specs to narrow what you need. Now if you think both cameras are good enough for what you do, then go out to a store and try them out, or even rent them for a day or two, that way you'll know what you really want.

When I laid hands on the X-T3 I knew it was going to be my next camera, but then came the X-H1 deals, so I went to a shop and tried them out side by side, just to be sure I wouldn't be missing out on something great. The X-H1 grip sold me right there on the spot, although I was sure I would be getting the X-T3.

So the key is testing and testing and testing again.

Thank you yayatosorus.

I actually did a need list and much as I can say coming from an X-T1 I feel the X-H1 can meet my needs. I worry for what if i'm missing out on an opportunity to get a camera I wont feel the need to upgrade from in 4/5 years. My fear is buying an XH1 then feeling the need to upgrade next year.

On the testing unfortunately i might not be able to. Not near any stores in my country. Though I have heard good things about the X-H1 grip.
