As I explained above, to get full data compatibility with the Nokton.

I’m kind of curious about the fact that you must derive enough value from that data to justify the expenditure and—perhaps more so—the significant upheaval in ergonomics. I can’t see much value in it myself, but of course that’s not a criticism, we’re all different 🙂

Not just the metadata - the data bus, too.  I’ll admit to putting my X-E3 in drunk mode (full program) when using the Fujicrons and I’m not actively shooting.

I actually found I prefer the  X-E4 ergos in the store - the lump with the Q and AF-L button is really annoying to me.  Don’t forget I’m used to shooting with featureless Leica bodies, and many others like that over the years.
