This post is helpful to me because I am also deciding between the X-T50 and X-E5. I'm also quite drawn to the look of the X-E5. I think I'd be fine with its EVF except that I ordinarily use my left eye with EVFs and would find that awkward with a rangefinder-style camera. Guess I also need to visit
