It’s really in the eye of the beholder. Suggest you try to get hands on with the X-E4 and see if that works for you.

Personally, I own X-E3 and could live/adapt with the X-E4 changes. After all the X-E4 AF-C performance is far superior than X-E3.

I originally purchased the X-E3 as a smaller camera to my X-T3 body. It certainly does the job and visually looks amazing. The AF-C accuracy has always been disappointing, I have just found different ways to “mitigate it”.

So unsure how you shoot with your Sony, you might be disappointed in this department.

Could you please provide more info about the AF-C? E.g., how many photos are usable for taking 5 pics? I may take some photos of my dog when hiking...

I am surprised how well X-E3 used prices have held up though !

Yes, that's why I'm hesitant now. It is only about an extra 200 dollars to get X-E4 over X-E3. But I guess it is not a good sign to consider "only extra".
