The A7CR has a 3.69M dot EVF at 0.78x magnification. That’s a large clear viewfinder. This is…not. Same resolution and size as the original X-E1 EVF.
Of course it may not be a dealbreaker. For me the dealbreaker would be price, as I’d much rather spend $1700 on an X-T5 instead of this.
One good thing is that Fujifilm cameras hold their value very well. I had the X100VI for over a year and sold it for $75 more than I paid for it (and I’m sure I could have gotten even a couple hundred more but I didn’t feel comfortable with that.)
The X-T1 (incidentally one of my favorite cameras ever) still goes for around $600 on the used market despite being 12 years old and ancient in terms of mirrorless technology.
Chances are the X-E5 will be selling used for $1500 even two years from now.
