Hey all. After enjoying my XT2 since buying new in 2016, I was starting to feel that some of its deficiencies were beginning to frustrate me: the lack of IBIS and occasionally unreliable AF mainly.
So, in about a week or so I should have a new Fuji XH2. I'm sure it will have its own quirks, but the larger handgrip, custom modes on the PASM dial, better AF, IBIS and somewhat higher resolution sensor are all appealing to me.
My question is: what to do with the XT2. Is it worth holding onto, given that it'll doubtless be worth only a couple of hundred to sell (even in good condition with all original boxes etc.)? My son is getting a little into photography and that would have been the obvious answer, but he has my wife's old XT10 and quite likes it and doesn't particularly want the bigger/heavier XT2 nor does he want to lose the handy built-in flash that the XT10 has.
If I didn't already have the Q2 I'd say I could justify two bodies, but three? And I am no more than a keen amateur who makes no coin from this endeavour, so it's hard to justify an XT2 and an XH2. But the XT2 is way too good a camera to sell for buttons.... dilemma!!
