I have wondered about the various Sony cameras because of the full frame sensor, particularly the small A7CR. I think what you get is a stop or so more sensitivity and best-in-class autofocus locked up in a pretty automated system where you’re expected to shoot either aperture or shutter priority and leave the rest to the camera, or else face diving into the impenetrable menus. If you want to tweak the exposure triangle yourself then the Fuji makes that a lot quicker and easier.
Then there’s the fact that the smallest Sony glass is a bit slow (mostly negating the sensitivity benefit), and the fast glass is huge.
If you’re used to using Sony and you don’t mind the size jump for the fast glass, I think you’d probably appreciate the increase in sensitivity and resolution. I decided it wasn’t worth it for me personally.
