Fuji X-T2 or X-T20

Update: cash in hand from D500 sale. Looking for a good deal on a used X-T2. If anyone sees one please let me know.
 
Fuji X USA Buy/swap/sell group on Facebook is the best place to find deals from legit private sellers.
 
You people need to stop with this.

Between you and @SquarePeg and @jcdeboever and @nerwin, there's something in the water. (@Gary A. is the primary suspect.)

I can't afford to have two systems. But y'all are slowly wearing me down. But I'm impatient, and I'd have to sell a lot of crap to be able to afford it. But I leave my D800 behind a lot.
It's a conspiracy. We sit around in a private chat room and do seances and chants. Slowly but surely, people start to enter the bright side. It's all about enlightenment, follow the light, follow the light. And yes Gary is the high priest. He is called Father Fuji. Peg is Sister Serenity. I'm brother bonehead bokeh.

Converting one camera soul at a time. :alien: I was at a camera store and had the XT20 in my hand, the sales guy would order the XT2, left empty handed this time. On the way out my husband said the problem with you camera people is that you are never satisfied. I did tell him it is like a tool kit...drill vs hammer. And not unlike him a shoe and cologne and watch guy never satisfied. :biggrin-93:
 
Update: I did some thinking and played with both cameras. Really like the X-T2, but the features that make it better than the 20 really don’t matter to my use case other than weather sealing.

I decided to go with an X-T20 to save both weight and money. They’re on sale right now for $799, and it was hard for me to justify spending nearly double that for a heavier camera with features that I mostly wont use.

I’m now wondering... do I get the 10-24 first, or the 16mm? I’ve located good deals on clean used copies of both.

16mm all day long, unless you really want it spread out. It is far superior to anything else I own.
 
Congrats on the new gear! I have not owned either of the 2 lenses you're considering. I have heard great things about the 16mm and also the Rokinon 12mm...

If you have any lingering doubts, you can buy me an X-T2 and I can tell you what I think about it. :)

Well chuffed for you and congrats on getting a great camera.
 
PS: Forgot to say, in the Fuji camera thread is a link so you can use for all your Firmware updates :)

For all Fuji Users

Thanks man!

And update again: I picked up a mint 10-24 for $600.

I want a 16 but don’t wanna be locked into a single focal length for my first lens. I’ll pick one up in the near future along with a 55-200.

Thank you again to everyone who has helped me out in this thread.
