SUMMARY
Photographer Jason Row returned to Fujifilm, opting for the 8-year-old X-T30 over his Sony a7R V for street work. He argues that the X-Trans III sensor's color and sharpness output, described as more film-like than clinical, still outperforms newer digital cameras for his needs. Row's decision is based on specific hardware advantages, not nostalgia, after experiencing issues with newer Fujifilm models and finding inflated prices for the X100 series.
