Can a 9 years old NEX-7 compete with X100F and Pen-F in 2020 ?

      Everybody likes the Fujifilm X100 series ... and I bet very few still use a 9 year old Sony NEX-7. Due to the Lock Down caused by COVID-19, I went back to my camera closet and grabbed the NEX-7 to see how it can (or not) compete with the much loved Fujifilm …
