A great and thoughtful review - which has generated an interesting thread as well. First and foremost, my thanks for the review, and its insights.

Thank you!

Also, a question, for all those who have used the X-E3 and the X-E4 - about your perceptions of its EVF (viewfinder). I'm curious what people think about it (love it, hate it, tolerate it, etc).

Incidentally and I may be mistaken, but my understanding is that the EVF in the X-E2 (and X-E2S) was moderately superior to the ones in its successors, the XE3 and XE4. Is that correct?

And - am I also correct in my assumption that the EVF in the X-E3 is basically identical to the EVF in my tiny X30?

Honestly there's not much noticeable different in the EVF's from the 2 through the 4 models. Similar magnification and eyepoint, but a bit clearer optics in the 3/4 from what I noticed.

Specifications wise they are slightly different. Trying to recall what the viewing size was based on memory... been a long time since I had the X30.
