After playing for only an hour or so, I have to say I am more than
impressed. I have not started on layers or other clever stuff, but for
straightening, cropping, white balance, and exposure/contrast then
exporting to JPEG it is pretty intuitive. And, as Duck says, the
tutorials are very good. I have not tried the catalogue functions at all
yet. But, for a Fuji shooter who is more into hardware and "natural"
rather than highly processed, arty results it certainly does the job. I
never used to use bracketing much, or burst mode except for special
cases like show-jumping. I used to find JPEG fine for most of what I
shoot. But I can see myself changing to using JPEG+RAW with burst and/or
bracketing much more often, throwing away all the rubbish sooner, and
concentrating on the good stuff and doing more post-processing straight
after the shoot.

Now all I have to do is to master all the buttons and options that the
X-T3 gives over the X-E1. Coming from film, the X-E1 is easy. But the
X-T3 is hard work!

I am happy to hear that things are starting to come together for you with
the X-T3. Very soon it will all be quite intuitive.

It's not hard work, it is a photographic play ground, and well worth
spending a little time to learn camera, and all the various shooting, and
post-processing options. Then there is the one benefit that Fujifilm
delivers that no other system comes close to offering, the great SOOC
Fujifilm JPEGs with the Fuji sims.

Just take your time, and enjoy the, 'ah ha!' moments as you discover how
the different features can work for you. In the X-T3 you have a great,
feature rich camera, and it is/can be an on going learning experience. It
is certainly, not a P&S camera, and it is leap & bounds away from your
X-E1.

Making the switch from Nikon to Fujifilm X mirrorless just refreshed my
approach to photography.
