Also, I have a thought. Looking at the spec, is X100V literally just XE4 with a 23f2? Or is x100v more compact or actually better? I haven’t used or seen XE4 before and am tempted since x100v is constantly out of stock.

The X100V has a hybrid viewfinder which consists of a switchable optical viewfinder and an EVF. Note that the EVF has a higher resolution than the one in the X-E4. Other noteworthy differences are the X100V's leaf shutter (the shutter is inside the lens), its built in ND filter, as well as the optional weather sealing. It also has more physical buttons/dials than the X-E, whether that is a pro or a con is subjective. Lastly the 23 f/2 on the X100V is (obviously) not identical to the XF 23 f/2 both physically and optically. Whether their differences are notable enough is again something I will leave you to judge.

On the other hand the X-E4 is cheaper and being an interchangeable lens camera, it allows you to mount other lenses, some of which have in built optical stabilisation.
