Yup, hard to go wrong with the NEX-6 vs Fuji for alt glass.
Two important factors to look into:
1. How the two cameras feel to you in hand, and in the files they produce. Do this in person if possible.
2. How the two cameras handle the wider lenses you plan to use when it comes to corner color/smearing. Read some reviews if you can't test this yourself. My understanding, for instance, is that the NEX 5 was MUCH better than the NEX 7 in this regard. No idea with the 6.
The 6 is almost identical to the 5N/5R in performance (same sensor as 5R, 5N has a closely related sensor). Fuji's suck hard, arguably worse than the NEX-7 for that particular criteria
It's a largely irrelevant consideration for someone adapting C/Y glass though, as the corner issues are limited almost entirely to wide rangefinder lenses.
Personally I consider the NEX line to be superior for adaptation of lenses, better peaking and available fully-coupled adapters to EF and A mounts as well as better compatibility with symmetrical wide-angle lenses (which is the sort of lens that causes corner issues). The Fuji X-E1 should be a little behind but quite good if you like the output of the X-Trans sensor (which personally I've got issues with).
Frankly my take is NEX for adaptation, m43 for native, Fuji if you want a mix of both.
