I would really like to see a side by side comparison between S5 pro and Xt-4 or Xt-3 for skintones. I have found such a comparison a a forum but the photographer was trying to make the Xt-4 look like Fuji S5 which defeats the purpose of this camera - S5 gives you nice shots sooc without hours spent on pp.

Me too! It would be interesting to see this comparison.

I did one with the XT-2 three years ago…

I really like the response the S5 delivered with a 17-55mm lens. Much more than the capture made with the XT-2 and a 1.2 / 56mm.

I find the XT cameras are all pretty good and the lenses are excellent, but looking at their DPR galleries I honestly I can’t tell the difference between their output and that from any Sony, Canon, or Nikon crop camera body!

I think XT's target is market users, who do jobs and need to keep within a certain standard. I say this because I realized that with an XT you can do whatever you want but it ends up bringing you back to where you belong: to the same market pattern. On a professional level that's great, but... sometimes it's actually quite irritating. It's like a cage: no matter how big and comfortable it is, it's still a cage. With the X-Pro (1 and 2) line, for example, that doesn't happen so much.
