I am seeing good IQ in this new sensor equipping X-H2/X-T5 (from a Canon FF user)

Hello, from a non-Fuji shooter who has for long considered one of these very sexy bodies.. I mean, the ones manufactured by Fuji .. X-Ts .. X-Es.. X100s .. and all APS-C bodies from Fuji really..

For years, I nearly pressed the trigger and ordered a Fuji .. but each time image quality did stop me

Especially for landscape, I always found the output from these small sensors lacked clarity and detail compared to ANY Full-Frame.. For example, grass leaves being mushy and not cristal clear, same for rock details, sunshine .. (this on any X-Ts before the X-T5 and compared to relatively "old tech" amongst Canon or Nikon Full-Frame.. Canon 6D Mk i with 2012 tech, Nikon D610 always providing much better IQ in my opinion / eyes.. for landscape with interest in close detail... )

Well, wrong or not, my eyes tell me that this new sensor as experienced on the X-H2 has bridged the gap with at least entry-level Full-Frame.

Being a Canon Full-Frame user, I planned on getting a Canon EOS M6 Mk ii which provides extremely sharp and detailed images (better than X-Ts until X-T4 in my opinion)..

But with Canon stopping the M Line.. no way, and as I said, with this new massive increase in resolution thanks to this new sensor implemented in the recent APS-C by Fuji, I think I will start what will be a 2nd system, most probably on X-T5 or X-E5

Well done Fuji, Gaul

Why is the X-E5 on your list?

No not really, youve just got more megapixels and people using higher end glass and more accurate af. You can still get mushy images under the right situations.
