I had the same dilemma and went with the XE-3. Could not be happier

unless [the X-E5] has IBIS, for me it is DOA.

A camera with no IBIS and you couldn’t be happier, yet no IBIS means a camera’s dead to you?

Hyperbole much? 😉

LOL. I chose the X-E3 because of it's size and UI, to use with my 18-55 and 10-24. I migrated from an XT3 to an XT4 and thought the IBIS transformative for my fast primes (16mm and 35mm f1.4s) and the 16-55. But, decided to sell the XT4 and buy an A7RIV for the sensor and an A9II for spectacular AF-C tracking.

Sold my Fuj 35mm 16mm and 16-55 BUT would jump at the chance to buy an X-E5 with IBIS and rebuy those lenses..if no IBIS, for me the camera is a no-buy (DOA).

Love my X-E3 and the two lenses I pair it with (the 18-55 and 10-24). Hyperbole has nothing to do with it. Cheers.
