What should I upgrade next? Fujifilm x-t1 vs x-t2

Hi everyone!

I've been shooting for almost a year now my portraits with Fujifilm gear only! I currently own a Fujifilm x-t1 body and three lenses: Fujinon 23mm f2 wr, Fujinon 50mm f2 wr and 35mm f1.4 from 7artisans. I'm shooting mainly location kind of portraits, occasionally in studio. And it's been great!

Now I saved some money to invest in my photography and I started wondering what should I upgrade next? Do I upgrade the body to an x-t2? I don't really feel the urge to do so, but maybe if I did it would save those few out of focus shots every now and then and give me little bit more of dynamic range to play with? I also heard its overall user experience is better than the x-t1.

Or maybe I should just stick to the x-t1 and buy a new lens? I was thinking maybe 16-80 f4?

What do you guys think? Is the difference between x-t1 and x-t2 big enough to justify the upgrade without really feeling the urge?

Thanks!
Chris
