Well, for what it's worth, I'll give my opinion on Fuji:
I acquired a Fuji XE-2 a while back as a smaller/more portable "companion" for my K5.
Interesting to note that it has fairly recently received a firmware update that makes much like a "higher model" such as the X-T1.
The resulting OOC (JPEG) files sure are NOT what I expected: nothing close to what I have been used to with the K5 and K7 (and K10D/K20D before that).
I mean: the results, especially for landscapes/foliage, do not impress me one bit.
The Fuji does, however, a great job at portraits ... my personal opinion; nothing scientific.
So, now that I also got the K3 for birding (to "replace" the K5) I am using the K5 for such things as landscapes/outdoor stuff besides birding. Great results as I am used to with the Pentax family!
That, the XE-2, is what I call the camera that saves the day when nothing else is available.
Ergonomics suck and the menus are a PITA.
Of course, I have not yet used the Fuji in RAW mode, and I don't think I will. Not really interested to spend more time with PP .... enough of that already with my Pentax cameras.
Anyway, I will likely put it on the market and keep only one brand: Pentax (Ricoh).
