Usually I am not be the one who will encourage fast consummation of photo equipment but sometimes you have to push yourself to get profit of the decrease selling price of very fine products that are in process of replacement.
In the Fujifilm X-mount line-up, there are at least 4 to 5 models that we can classified as endangered species. Every one of those has its own specificity. For example, it is time to get a pro Fujifilm X-H1 which is representing the best deal for a professional high-level camera equipped with the IBIS (In Body Image Stabilization) which an exception compared to all other Fuji X-mount camera models. Package with its power grip and two batteries, it is a real complete kit and you can combine it with some excellent pro lenses.
What can I say about the Fujifilm X-E3 more that it represents an underrated, competent and, more important, real compact camera that you can get at a fair price especially with the XF23mm F2 or the XF18-55mm F2.8-4 lenses? And because it is a simpler interface presentation model (with less fussy control dials and buttons), you can concentrate yourself more on your picture composition and the moment of shooting. If you prefer to choose a center viewfinder that is more appropriate for sport or fast action photography, the Fujifilm X-T20 is still available at discount price with or without a lens. The X-T20 model add a tilt back screen that is very handy (low- or high-level viewing) such in macro or repro projects.
Lastly, I won’t pardon myself by not mentioning the Fujifilm X-Pro2 that will be replaced by the X-Pro, version 3. I don’t want to underestimate the advantages of the latest X-Pro version, but I do prefer a permanent back viewing screen (instantly available and "glued" to the camera body) compared with a flip-down one that require space and introduce some review delay.
