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.

It's the optical viewfinder that makes it what it is IMHO, if you're not fussed by that then an X-E4 will produce the same results.

Well, it is also the better build quality, the small 23mm pancake, the leaf shutter, etc. By the way, all Fujifilm cameras with the same sensor produce the same results, so we obviously are all buying different models for other reasons.

I know what the differences are, but, as I said, it's the optical viewfinder that's the real differentiator, you can put a faster 23mm lens on the XE4, and the better build quality is debatable, as for the sensor, did you really think I wasn't aware of that, or that people buy different cameras for different reasons?

I honestly wasn’t sure since you think the other things i mentioned are non factors.
