I use original batteries and I have never experienced anything like this. It's true that mirrorless cameras use more power than a DSLR with optical viewfinder. But what is described here is just *fake news*. I've been in the polar region and at the most I need three batteries for a whole day of shooting in cold conditions, and I took a lot of pictures. Just stay with good batteries and nothing of this will occur. Read reviews and you find that many third party batteries are highly overrated. In most cases you get what you pay for.

I can't say that I have any issues with my Fujifilm camera bodies, but my primary reason for my switch to Fuji where the lenses. Continuous autofocus was actually so bad that I bought a Nikon D7200 just for the sake of shooting actions. With the X-T2 things have improved, but not to the extent that it can replace my Nikon with the long telephoto lenses. Except for autofocus I love the gears and I don't think I will change it in the nearest future. However there are a few things I would love to see in a coming camera like built in image stabilisation and a real implementation of back focus (AF-ON). Improved battery life is also on my wish list. So yes, I can live with the camera bodies, because no one else have a lens collection that can beat Fuji.

For me it's simple. I switch to mirrorless to save weight and space. For me cameras are part of a system with lenses. To save a few gram on the camera body doesn't help. Even the lenses must be smaller and lighter. That's why initially all mirrorless cameras was introduced with MFT sensors or APS-C sensors. I don't understand mirrorless with full frame sensors. With these cameras we are back to what initially mirrorless solved in the first place. To save weight and space. A full frame lens by nature must be larger than one for a smaller sensor.

I'm very pleased that Fuji add so many features to an existing model. Still there are room for improvements. 1) Better battery indicator 2) 24h time format in SETUP > DATE/TIME 3) AF-ON, not just AF-L 4) Manual override in AF-C

I have exactly those lenses except my 56 is not APD. Really think Fuji doing some excellent lenses. Next step is to make more of them WR.
