I have the XT4 and the 16-55 and it is as big as a FF camera with a 24-70f2.8 lens. The FF cameras are better in terms of ergonomics and handling compared to XT4. It is not comfortable to hold the XT4 and the the 16-55 compared to a A7 series camera or the EOS R/RP, Nikon Z camera due to a much better grip. The a6600 with 16-55 f2.8 is much more comfortable to hold, is smaller and more secure in hands.

Picture quality is a toss up between a 6600 and the XT4 and video is similar, with maybe XT4 being better.

Battery is better on the sony.

Primes are better overall with fuji but sony has good ones from Sigma.

This is what I feared - that the XT4 is pretty much a FF camera physically, but with an APS-C sensor. It almost seems as though if you go Fuji, you're doing it for the reasons people go Fuji (look, body details, etc.).

I guess the lenses are small, which makes up for some of it.

The battery isn't a big deal for me, but yes the 6600 battery is nice with 800+ shots - I never had the battery run out while in Hawaii.

Thanks for the feedback.
