    BuddaHat, take a look at this :

    • If I hadn't just spent a whole bunch of money on an engagement ring I would be leaping straight at an X-T20, but I want a camera now, so I think I'll go X70..BuddhaHat
    • and then upgrade when my finances are looking healthier again :)BuddhaHat
    • but if you're in a position to get the X-T20 , and you're already decked out with kit, then I'd say it's a no-brainer for you, mate.BuddhaHat
    • Yeah i guess. I would prefer under 400g but i really want an APS-C sensor. And the Xt20 is a better choice for a main camera than the x70, for me.Bennn
    • congratulations, buddha, did she say yes?Gnash
    • what's with those red lines?mekk
    • red line mean 'no'Bennn
    • Thanks Gnash, I'm just warming up with the purchase, the big day is 31 March, I'll definitely be making a blog post to let y'all know :)BuddhaHat
    • And Bennn, for anyone above amateur level I'd never call the X70 a 'main camera', it would always be a secondary unit for those ppl with lots of kit.BuddhaHat
    • (best of luck, B)Gnash
    • I want the Olympus Pensea_sea
    • You know what, on all counts the XT20 sounds like a great choice... but it just doesn't feel as good as the TX1 or 2. IMO they were worlds apart.sofakingback
    • I say XT1 or 2, XPRO2 or X70... or maybe hang on for the X100Fsofakingback
    • I wouldn't get hung-up on size or weight, these cameras are generally the same size, will take up the same about of space and you will carry/treat them the samesofakingback
    • If you want to really size down, the X70 is where its at, thats why I use that one the most.sofakingback
    • yeah but i feel that for just a few more grams i have something way more powerful with the X-T20Bennn
    • And the lenses. Yea, maybe thats the best fit for you. get the pancake lens and it should be a pretty compact set-upsofakingback
    • The X-T1 is the camera of kings. That, with the 35mm f2 R, it is pretty much perfect.face_melter
    • yup. Benn, I have my XT1 for sale at the moment, just an FYIsofakingback
