Wondering if based on history a significant reason to consider the xt4 over the xt30 or xt40 or x100v is because it will receive more firmware updates. Historically has the x100t and onwards series received little attention—what you buy is what you get? Or have there been mega x100s style firmware updates since? And for the xt30 series did it eventually receive everything possible that the xt3 got?

Thanks

Based on history - the X-T4 will receive the least updates as its probably the last model to use this generation's sensor / processor.

When they switch to the next generation sensor / processor - they usually move their developers over to the new platform and stop development on the old one platform.

But Fujifilm appears to be changing their policy / strategy as the X-T3 / X-T30 is still missing the X-Pro3 firmware improvements to its AF.

So who really knows?
