Em... Yes for IQ, but in auto/P&S mode since X-E4 lost many manual control dials/button.

It still has a shutter speed dial, the lenses have aperture rings, and it has an exposure comp dial... just like any fully manual film camera. If you can’t figure out how to use that in manual mode, I don’t know what to say...

Em...you may be correct but X-E4 not suitable for XC 35mm F2 or XC 15-45mm which hasn't aperture rings due to lost rear dials.

Front dial

X-E4 also lost M-C-S front dial which may useful for XF 14mm F2.8 manual focus.

Thats more of a pain but just assign it to a Fn button, screen gesture, or the My Menu. Might even be a Q menu item.

With the 14mm, you can just use AF+MF “on” in the menu and switch with the clutch no?
