Welcome to the D500 club! I just got mine the other day after deciding I missed DSLRs and missed an EVF after using the Fujifilm X-M5 for a few months. Just waiting for the Nikon 200-500mm to arrive and I'll be a very happy camper as well.

In terms of portability they are all in the same ballpark, the X-30 being the biggest but not by much. I would not consider the X-e4, because it's quite old, good but old in terms of electronics. To me it's between the x-t30 and the x-m5. All of those camera will do good, and won't really limit you

Hi everyone,I’m buying my first camera and feeling pretty confused 😅 I’ve done some photography in the past and now want to get into travel photography (and some videography too, but that’s secondary for now).

For the same price, get a Fujifilm X-S20. The only "con" is that it's APS-C, but a wide aperture helps with low light. The camera is relatively compact, ergonomically very comfortable, and the lenses are going to be lighter as well. 6K Open Gate, IBIS, Mechanical Shutter, EVF, Built-In Flash, Hot Sh
