I have used GH3 and X-E1, but I don’t see any major difference in image quality upto ISO 3200, at ISO 6400 and 12800 the images of Fuji X-E1 are bit cleaner, The GX7 comes with newly developed sensor compared to GH3 and I must say that you will not notice any major difference in High ISO performance between both camera (GX7 vs X-E1).
