I tried a Sony A7IIIR for a few days and didn't enjoy shooting with it at all. The menus are OK, but the way of operating the camera was a bit strange to me (coming from Fuji, Olympus, Panasonic, Pentax and Nikon). I found other brands of cameras much easier to operate (even Oly with their horrible menu - at least the super control panel fixes most issues). Also, I wasn't impressed with the AF despite the continuous raving from dpreview. I thought it would be much better than my lowly X-T20, but it wasn't the jump I was hoping for.
I really like the overall FE lens lineup though, especially small 3rd party options from Tamron and Samyang. The idea of being able to use these lenses on a Z body is very attractive. However, these adapters are not perfect (i.e. not 100% compatible) given they reverse engineer the protocols... So that's another issue.
I guess I will stick to Fuji for the time being ;-)
