I think the question you should first ask is "What is the deal with these Youtubers that struggle to take sharp photos when other do?"

I shot with the X-T3, a camera that some of these same photographers struggled with for 3 years.  As a nature and wildlife photographer specializing in avian I do a lot of birds in flight and that is a very demanding type of photography.   The X-T3 delivered wonderful images for me time and time again and I still use it as a backup to my X-H2s.  As I could get 90% or more of my flight photos in focus I don't understand how a camera that these same photographers say is better than my X-T3 can't do at least as well as me on simpler subjects.

There are a few event photographers on this forum and possibly one of them will chime in.
