Fuji for me for jpegs and shooting experience
1

To me, the big difference is the shooting experience of using a camera with dials and a live aperture ring rather than the ho hum dual control wheel system you have to use with almost all other cameras short of a Leica. I know dual wheels work perfectly well-- I have a Pentax KP and an Olympus E-M10II and enjoy them both-- but there's something deeply satisfying about shooting with my Fujis.

The jpegs are great too.

I am an amateur shooting purely to scratch my own artistic itch and my gear needs are very simple, so having the latest and greatest technology is not important to me at all. I might well be interested in trying a larger sensor, but not if I have to spend a lot of money on a boring camera to do it. I have one more to try-- the Panasonic S5-- before I conclude that there is no FF mirrorless option that interests me. I might add a Nikon Df (not mirrorless, but very much not boring) to my stable or just stick with my X-T2.
