Re: Cracking little camera

(Three month old thread revival)

Thanks for this review. I have an X-T4 and have been considering downsizing to an X-E4(when they are available again . . .someday) and you hit on pretty much all the points I was wondering about, in particular how much smaller it *feels* compared to the X-T4. I can look and specs and compare the size on camerasize.com but that doesn't tell me how it would feel.

I think I'd prefer the body of the X-E3,(with the grip and thumbrest) but the fixed screen, I don't think I could do it. Plus I'd miss the Negative Classic Simulation.

I have a Z6 with a few lenses, and I'd keep that as my hiking/landscape/low light camera(I do a lot of dawn/dusk shooting), and the X-E4 would be my more discrete urban/street camera, with some primes and the 18-55. That way I wouldn't have two cameras with the same form factor when when is superior technically to the other.

But I can't just quit Fuji altogether. Despite the superior low-light capabilities from the  X-T4, I always just prefer the Fuji in my hands, and the X-E4 would allow that.
