What camera do I buy? / general gear talk

I made my first foray into Fuji cameras last year and picked up an XE3 with the 35mm f1.4 and have been really happy with it. Image quality is excellent and the controls are really intuitive. Auto focus is ok, a bit slow with the older lenses like mine - but not dreadful.

The only thing I'd say is to try and handle one if you can, while it's great that they're so compact and portable, I find it a bit small for my hands. They make grips and thumb rests etc which help but I'm planning to trade in for an X Pro2/3 at some point. XE4 is a bit of a departure in terms of controls, quite a few of the custom buttons have been removed so the operation is even simpler, if you like mapping things to buttons the older bodies are they way to go.
