Hi,
I'm Fuji's prodigal son, returning after 3 years in the Land of the Sony Full Framers.

Welcome back!

I do event photography, product photography and a bit of video on the side.

From where I am, I can get the XE3 body, XT100 with kit and XT20 body almost at the same price.

Out of these, I would go X-T20 all the way. As others have said, the X-T100 is feature-gutted to hit a competitive price, and the X-E3 is somewhere in the middle.

Have you considered an X-T2? It goes for almost exactly as cheap as the X-T20, yet it has so much to offer over the T20, at the expense of size. Though, that size bump can be an asset when mounting larger lenses.

Note that it's markedly different from the X-T1 you owned – namely in the software department. The T2 has the more 'modern' software, and definitely set the tone for Fuji cameras moving forward. It feels solid, modern, and capable.

I agree, I have both the X-T20 and X-T2. I love the 20 with primes and the IQ is the same, but there’s no question that the 2 is the better camera in every respect if size and weight aren’t a primary concern. If you can swing a used X-T2, it’s a fantastic camera.
