XS20 is a nice camera to hold and it uses the new higher capacity battery.
How are you finding it?
I prefer my Nikon Zf as it is more like a Nikon FM and very like my Fuji XT5. However the AF on the Fuji is noticeably less quick than the Nikon Zf/Z8/Z9. The Z8 is very similar to the D850 in size and weight. The Z9 is similar to D3 weight and size wise but it is much more capable.
I don’t notice the Fuji AF being slow…..maybe it’s me getting slower.
In fairness I haven’t used it in speed challenging situations.
I had been considering getting a longer lens for it, but my previous experience with the slow AF of the XT2, I had back in the day (which was part instrumental in me coming back to the D850) has tempered my enthusiasm.
Iain’s comment about lens balance with the Z8 is another reminder of how the Fuji felt unbalanced with a big lens and your comment that the AF of the XT5 (which I guess would be the same as X20) is inferior to Nikon Zs, make me close my wallet on the thought of a long lens purchase.
