A couple of years ago I left Fuji and tried the Z system (Z5 and briefly Z6ii) for several months, then tried Panasonic (S5), then came back to Fuji. I won't get into it too much here; both systems have their strengths and weaknesses. One of the main weaknesses of the Z5 is its slow/hesitant AF in low light. This is well documented on the Z forum. It might be worth your while to ask there about its capabilities for street photography. Other than that I think it's still the best entry-level ff cam when all features and specs are considered, compared to other entry-level ff cams.

*edited to add that yes, it is relatively heavy (it's a solid camera, felt a bit more sturdy than my old X-H1).
