![]() | Fujifilm XF10 Pros: Beautiful (the eye wants its part) - small and light with good grip - silent in the shot - indisputable Fujifilm quality - snapshot function Cons: Fixed display (not necessarily a defect) - absence of flash slide - it is not possible to save presets - film simulations at the smallest terms - noisy lens that advances and backs down during focus - continuous AF but also single - the thread filters!!!! Opinion: I had for years the X70 a machine concept that define extraordinary is reductive (obviously if you do a certain type of photography and if you love the 28mm) Unique defect the lens with external focus then noisy slow and with the front mobile (see 18mm 27mm and 35mm 1.4) patience I lived there the same (I often used hyperfocal) Unfortunately the X70 had short life due to sudden retirement of the 16 mpx sensor shortly after its release. I therefore expected an X70s with the new sensor and with a new lens (new mechanically because quality is not discussed) Fujifilm instead presents this thing here that is called XF10. distant relative of the X70 but in its own way just as beautiful and interesting. The philosophy has been to simplify the functions and the shooting experience. I've always liked simple things! That's when they removed the tilting monitor (I'm fine but was it really necessary?) and anyway better fixed rather than articulated type opening of the sports gazette (on the machines without sight the ideal monitor is that of the Sony 5100) Then they removed the diaphragms ring and did various cleanings (via selector fire mode on the front and ok the joystick behind) Missing the flash slide (no optical viewpoint) but the line earns. In short, a really beautiful machine came out aesthetically. classy. Among the various functions useful what Fuji calls instant (hyperfocals at the button as on the Ricoh GR) to better evaluate the Burst 4K HDR and other things that do not interest me. as well as the video side that I didn't peek at either by accident. But let's get to the point. virtually on the XF10 they thought well to transplant equal to the lens of the X70. same flaws if possible even more marked! Gentlemen here at the autofocus level we are in the middle ages. the single is that of the XE1 the continuous just enough to follow a sloth (I read that it improved with the new firmware and before what was?) But now here's the stroke of genius. an engineer gets up in the morning with the wrong foot and out of the blue without any warning and without any apparent logic decides to remove from the lens the thread to insert a filter! was even just protection and nothing. you're looking for it, but it's not there. The ability to mount the X70's additional wide also disappears.... But why?? it is not a matter of life or death but it remains a serious lack. details matter if they matter and then I buy a camera not a compact or a smartphone! For lovers of curiosities about the X70 instead of the adapter ring I had mounted a filter without glass as a spacer and then in front of the protection filter in this way meanwhile the movement of the optics took place completely inside without the danger of obstacles during the focus (I broke a 27 in this way) and then avoided removing and putting the cap every time. In addition to protecting the optics from impacts (how many targets I saved with the protection filter) Another lack of the absence of the C function where you can record the various presets. it was enough to remove from the ring the specific scenes faces landscape sports night photo and move them inside the voice SP where we already find the rest of the scenes. Finally I would have liked the opportunity to shoot directly in 4:3 as on the new A7 (I always hope in a firmware that implements this function in all Fuji) Then I certainly realize that inserting the Acros simulation would be a huge effort! sent on September 17, 2020 |
