Pros: Vintage aesthetics, dials like analog machines, great battery, film simulation

Cons: Aged badly, lag in liveview menus, slow shooting rescue, dynamic range not excellent

Opinion: Bought in mid-2020 to return to an analog-like feel (according to many fuji owners) I took it used by a forum member. I make this comparison on the assumption that I use 5dii, but at the time of the release of this room (2012) I had already used rooms such as a7, nx300 and the like. Speaking of concrete things, the camera gave me yes that vintage look, analog, the film simulation is very comfortable, allows you to have ready-made files. E.g. I went out for motorcycle or mountain rides, I would go home, take the card and upload photos directly to IG, without the need to develop raw. The customization of these films is quite extensive, you can change contrast, sharpness, sat. and tint x every simulation, thus going to "work" already in the room to develop a look that we like without shooting raw. Personally I really appreciate the Velvia profile, with excellent contrasts and saturated colors, if we can have opposite colors in the photo. ERGONOMIA side coming from a 5d you feel quite the lightness of the room, it is still heavy compared to modern mirrorless, but in the end it is only half a kg, even for walks or trekking does not feel too much on the neck. The GHIERE are great, you can use everything in full car or changing the values of the dial of the times (the overexposure I find quite useless in this case, more comfortable when using everything in full car, to compensate for the choices of the room). The BATTERY using the room for a couple of orettes a day and then putting it back in my backpack has lasted a week (head in summer, I imagine that in winter the battery suffers a little definitely). For those who want to do VIDEO the room works completely automatically, but offers a recording up to half an hour, available we only histogram and peaking, excellent but excellent the blurring that we get on this room, with a 50 1.4 you get beautiful results. FINAL CONCLUSIONS: Overall it is a machine to try if you want to go back to shooting in analog and you have the opportunity to buy a good fuji lens, I used it by adapting some m42 optics (using the k&f adapter) and I still felt good. The hybrid system of the crosshairs in truth I did not use it often because under the direct sun it becomes very difficult to see inside the viewfinder, ergo I immediately switched to the electronic one. In xpro3 it's a show, but in this first model you can see that this kind of technology was still in its infancy. To buy if you can find it on the 350/400 including optics, otherwise at 300/250 and we adapt some vintage lens.

fujifilm_ebc_fujinon50_f1-4Fujifilm EBC Fujinon 50mm f/1.4

Pros: Sharpness, solidity

Cons: It lasts the focus ring (but maybe it's mine that's outdated), weight (if you're not used to this kind of vintage optics)

Opinion: Excellent vintage lens, I always use it in the evening to TA, excellent because it is very sharp. Being built in metal you can mistreat it without problems (other than the plastic of modern lenses, this lens feels when the mounts on the room) and if mounted on a 5d becomes one with the room. Recommended for those who do not have money to spend on optics so bright modern and has no problem shooting in manual.
