Says the X-E5 brought back their enjoyment of photography: it's fun, and it can stay compact or take bigger lenses. Got bored of an older X100.
“XE5 literally brought my spark back. It’s so much fun. Best part, you can stay compact or go nuts with a simple lens change.”
Shoots the X-E5 with a 28mm-equivalent lens and the Acros B&W simulation alongside a Leica Q2 Monochrom, and finds the out-of-camera results hard to tell apart for 11x17 prints. Smaller and lighter, it's become the camera they grab more often.
“I find the Fuji is smaller and lighter, has a Q3-style folding screen that the Q2 doesn't have (I never use them anyway), and I seem to be grabbing it over my Q2 Monochrom more and more.”
Moved from an X-Pro2 to the X-E5 and hasn't found its in-body stabilisation useful, since they don't shoot video or night landscapes. Finds the Fuji files bloated and is considering a Canon R8.
“I went from Fuji xpro2 to xe5 and have not noticed the usefulness of IBIS at all as I don’t shoot video or night time landscapes.”
