“However, for burst photography, you're getting about 20 frames on the electronic shutter, and the X-S20 you're getting 30, so it kind of depends.” — Cal Takes Photos

Mount Compatibility

“Now, with the X100V, I did buy the wide-angle adapter and the telephoto adapter, but at that point, you basically just recreated an interchangeable lens system with much more limitations.” — brett tommy.

“cameras for 4K footage you can see that there is a clear difference in the overall color there's just more depth to in the xs20 footage this is because you're able to shoot a 10 bit 422 and the h.265 codec so it does seem that the image quality here is better the footage you're seeing is not color…” — Bianca Mikaehla
Battery Life

“if your photos are sharp and in Focus the xs20 is also using the newer batteries which offer over double the battery life of 750 shots versus the xm5 330 shots though I'm sure there might be plenty of these older batteries around for sale maybe secondhand as everyone's upgrading to these new ones…” — tb- photography
