My favorite mirror less, oh how you tempt me:
Fuji X-T1 Review by Don Smith Photographer

Thanks! I'm always interested in views of landscape photographers on mirrorless.

I really like the look and concept of the X-T1 in general and especially the large EVF. Very tempting...but the buttons and lack of real exposure bracketing are a deal breaker as far as I can see. (The exposure bracketing they could fix in an update, but not the buttons.) The new wide angle looks good, but the rest of the line up of zooms isn't my usual fare either.

Also, as a pixel peeper who looks at all these new cameras/lenses for out of the box sharpness and detail, I've not been very impressed by the Fuji RAWs. I keep looking at them though, because I always assume they are just bad examples I've seen, given the raves about this camera.

Also, what's with not putting the aperture values on the 18-55 (kit) zoom? What kind of retro camera doesn't let you see the aperture on the dial that you actually set via the lens!

It's informative to Tony Northrup's video reviews of this camera too.

Maybe the X-T2?
