All excellent posts! I love Fuji, but I'll be the first to admit that my Canon gear has flash capabilities that the X series cameras can only dream of. So, of course, If I need to be shooting flash all day, I'm not even going to pack my Fuji gear. If I don't need flash, and am going on a hike, then the small and lightweight Fuji comes out to play.
The camera is a tool. I don't use a hammer to open a bottle, or a bottle opener to pound nails into the wall. I use whatever is best suited to what the task at hand is. And since we all have so many different tasks, it's impossible to find the one and only tool for everyone. Anyone who claims otherwise is no expert, just someone speaking from the standpoint of their own convictions, and we should remember this when we read their posts.
