As Good as it Gets, in APS-C
8

From shooting with Nikon SLR film cameras in the seventies to the present, the X-T4 meets and surpasses any experience I've had. It offers great body controls, an excellent sensor, complementary hybrid video/photography, great OIS and weather sealing. I'm also an ardent fan of the "flippy screen" for greatest versatility. No more lying on my belly for spring work with smallest wildflowers. or vertical individual low-lying compositions in general. Composing verticals over a crowd in event photography is also much easier. I've heard the X-T4 criticized for its cost, weight and size compared with lower-priced FF bodies of other brands. But I find Fuji's APS-C to be a good format for my requirements. What it lacks in the comparison to FF is easily made up for, in its unique advantages of handling, film simulations, retro styling and hybrid nature.
