What part of flippy screen don't you get?

I might be an outlier on this, but I actually prefer flippy screens. I came to Fuji from M4:3. My E-M5 Mark II and E-M1 Mark II bodies had flippy screens and I almost always carried and used the cameras with the screens flipped to the closed position. I don't chimp very often and keeping the screens closed let me focus on what I was photographing rather than what I had photographed.

I gladly accept a slightly heavier body for the inclusion of IBIS and a much better battery. I used small batteries in my E-P5 and E-M5 Mark II bodies. I was worried about the small batteries used in the X-T3 when I was thinking about moving to Fuji. The bigger (and better) batteries used in the X-T4 were a selling point. It would be a pain to have to get new chargers and batteries for existing Fuji users (as it was when Oly changed batteries in the E-M1 Mark II) but as someone new to Fuji it wasn't a concern for me.

I'm glad Fuji is offering users the options.
