Cameras and feels

No.2575406 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
I am comparing 2 cameras, the Panasonic GX-7 and the Fujifilm X-A2.
Similar kind of cameras and similar pricepoints, but the GX-7 wins by a landslide in all the reviews I have seen.

However, the "feelings" that each camera transmite are very different.
The photos I have seen made with a GX-7 seem to have an higher quality. They look like made by photo-studios. Hi-res photos, soft features, a bit dark regarding lighting.

The Fuji X-A2 looks more fresh. A bit rougher but more COLOURFUL (is that even possible?).

Is this possible? I'm a newbie and don't know much about cameras, but they are absolute opposites. While the GX-7 seems better, I prefer the rougher, colourful look of the pictures taken with a X-A2.

What do you think?
Did you ever pick up the worse camera because it transmitted a look more in line with your style, despite being way inferior at the same price?
