Nice article, lots of good information, however I’d like to point out the XT4 definitely does have IBIS , the main reason I updated from the XT3 ( also the larger battery.

I am in the transition of becoming a more professional photographer. I take mostly photos of dance & contemporary circus, so in low light on a stage. I want to upgrade to a new camera but i’m not sure what camera performs best in low light but is still fast enough to capture fast moving people and objects. A lot of people tell me to change to Canon or Nikon, but i love the fuji system and would love to keep using it. Next to that, i am still a student so my budget isn’t that large. Maximum i would go up to a thousand, you seem to know a lot about the x series. What would you recommend in this case?

Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Manon

It’d be a step down re. image quality, but a big step up re. portability, Max. What’s most important to you? Re. Xt30 vs XT3, it’s mostly a size thing for non-pros too.

I am tossing up between the XT30 and the XT3. I currently have a compact only, so either will be a step up for me to start experimenting more with photography.

I am heading to Northern Lights next year and was considering the XT3 given the weather sealing. I went into the shop to test it but found that whilst the grip was OK, it was rather heavy.

I wanted to ask what people thought of the weight of XT3 in terms of day to day use and thoughts on weather sealing?

Hey Bella, we’re in the middle of a review of the AX-7 actually! We’ll only add it to this guide if we deem it worthy, but either way, we’ll definitely publish a full review – sign up to our newsletter to be notified when it goes live ;-)

Well you’d have to buy some lenses for the GFX too, so it could be a rather large investment! Arguable how much difference you’d see in IQ over the Hasselblad too.

Thanks

Hey Cathie, I’d take the leap to this camera if I were you – you’ll see a big difference in speed ;-)

I just stumbled across your reviews. I currently use an XE-2 and am looking to upgrade. I bought the XE-2 as a camera to learn digital photography on, and it may have been too esoteric for my skill set. I have taken some beautiful photos with it, but find the shutter sluggish when trying to capture images quickly. I was thinking of upgrading to the XT-30 or the XE-3, but I’m not sure how different the XE-3 is to the XE-2 and where it sits in comparison to the XT-30. The XE-3 is currently on sale, (which is attractive to me!) and I haven’t found it listed in many comparison reviews. Any guidance would be helpful!
