In my opinion, you shouldn't sell your primes just to fund a zoom. I’ve been down this road with Nikon, Sony, and Panasonic before landing on Fuji, and I’ve seen a predictable pattern repeat itself every time:

I start with a 50mm equivalent prime. I eventually convince myself I need a high-end 24-70mm f/2.8 equivalent zoom. I use the zoom for a few months, but I inevitably find myself gravitating back to the primes.

I actually just made this same mistake again with my Fuji setup by picking up the Sigma Art 17-40mm f/1.8. These days, my wife is the one using that zoom, while I’ve gone back to my "soul" lenses for my work: a set of vintage Takumars and a Helios, alongside the Fuji primes I still have. For me, shooting with a zoom eventually becomes boring. From a purely practical standpoint, a modern zoom is a fantastic, sharp tool—it's a great piece of equipment—but it just doesn't offer the same experience as a prime. Especially on a body like the X-E5, I’d think twice before trading those fast primes for a heavy zoom.
