I would love an X100V- or X-E4-sized X-Pro.

Or, looking at it from the other direction, I would love an X-E with weather resistance and a dedicated ISO dial. As someone who doesn’t take advantage of the OVF, that would be just about perfect for me.

Can't help you with the weather sealing although I've taken my X-E4 out in light rain and use it all the time in dusty hiking conditions, but the front dial can only ever be set to Shutter Speed (you have a dedicated dial for that), Aperture (I only use lenses with manual Aperture control), Exposure Compensation (again, dedicated dial for that), ISO, and None, so mine is always set as my ISO dial.

I would have liked if the X-E4 had some gasketing around the connector and battery doors but the only point of entry I actually worry about now for moisture and dust is that control dial since I don't know how well it's sealed, especially since the thumb grip provides a lot of protection for the hot shoe which was the only other thing I use to worry about.
