I'm planning to replace my Nex-5 with an EVF camera, and am hesitating between Fuji x-e1 end Sony Nex-6.
Reason: both are more or less in the same budgetary bracket).

I have had some experience with the Fuji x-e1, (which developed a mount problem shortly after I picked it up) but I am wondering if there is a better implementation of the EVF on the Nex-6.

Focus peaking and zooming on both? The x-e1 viewfinder is small, how about the Nex-6?. And which one has the brighter and contrastier EVF image? I know the advantages and drawbacks of the x-e1, anybody can brief me on those of the Nex-6?

I prefer the EVF of the NEX-6 to that of the X-E1. The X-E1 has an annoying lag in the EVF when half pressing the shutter.
