Thanks for your reply. I'm sure they have but does that mean they are better? I've just spent some time watching a couple of videos about user settings and menus from Omar Gonzalez on Youtube. I think I've now got a better handle on the buttons and dials. What Fujifilm camera do you use yourself?

Hi everyone I'm new to the forum and as can be seen in the title of this post a Fujifilm xt20 owner but not a very happy one. When I got the camera I thought it would pretty much perfect: small, discreet, solidly made with an emphasis on still photography rather than video. But I find myself being reluctant to take it out and use it; I find it a bit fiddly to use even though I don't have large hands, and the handling in general just feels a bit odd - it's a bit awkward to hold, it feels rather unbalanced with the 18-55 IS lens on it and I don't appreciate the small viewfinder. The images I've got with it have also been rather disappointing and not even all that sharp. So I know this is a Fujifilm forum but I wonder if I wouldn't get on better switching to another brand. The other day I handled a Nikon Z5 in a store and thought it just felt good in the hand, a bit an old Olympus dSLR I had. The Nikon is also full frame, which I know has advantages over the APSc sensor. My question is do you guys think I should switch to Nikon or give the xt20 another chance. I have also got the 27mm pancake and though I haven't really used it yet, I hear that this can be a fantastic combination for street photography.
