Pros: Lightweight and compact, good image quality, functionality

Cons: Some features a bit cumbersome, not great battery

Opinion: A camera with great qualities enclosed in a well-made body (although less than the previous ones and a little undercut by the Fuji Made in Japan standard). I always take her with me... with the lens 15-45 lies in the pocket of a jacket comfortably. It has the functionality of higher rank machine bodies. Some of these are a bit cumbersome to reach. Well structured and readable menu. Excellent touch, although I don't use it with pleasure, but it has classic smartphone features. Good display and EVF (maybe a bit small)...like so many mirrorless is a lot of fun to use with vintage optics, with focus peaking working very well. I find the AF system pretty good, although there's better around. The images that the X-E3 produces are very good, at times amazing... to think that such a toy can come out of such high-level images seems strange. Very nice jpeg, even with the various film simulations... b/n are very interesting. The only flaw maybe the battery, which is not terrible anyway... on the other hand, from such a compact battery you can't expect miracles. Overall I would recommend this machine. On the used market they are found at attractive prices. A good entry point into the Fujifilm system, which I find very very interesting. I conclude by saying that I also use this camera with a Viltrox adaptor for Canon EF/EF-S optics ... Formidable.

Pros: The usual quality of Fuji: great product for the price range; firmware updates etc.

Cons: As soon as I find them I communicate.

Opinion: Just bought. Very happy owner of the XE2 I decide to add the XE3. The image quality is identical, despite the eight megapixels more, the robustness a little less. More compact than the sister "minor" and therefore lighter. No built-in flash (they give a separate one that feeds with the machine battery) and different menu to familiarize yourself with. Identical autonomy (300/350 shots). I thought about why Fuji churned out the XE3 since there was the 2 and the only answer I gave was that of the touch-sensitive display, still not adjustable. First shots: less "analog" than the XE2. The 24 megapixels are more nervous than the 16 of the XE2 and put vintage or third-party optics more on the rope (I use Nikon fixed optics with adapter: 14mm - 28mm - 50mm - 85mm) removing them from "materiality". Nothing worrying but the difference can be seen in the tonal passages of the B/N. Long story short: is it better to buy the XE3 to replace the XE2? I don't think so: If you already own your younger sister, hold on to it or think about something else.

Pros: Lightness, size, operational speed, jpeg quality, very comfortable touch screen to select fire area with vintage lenses, much improved af, customization possibilities

Cons: A little small, more plastic than the X-E2, lack of built-in flash, 24 mpx without stabilizer raise safety times, AUTO selector absolutely useless.

Opinion: For my virtually perfect use. If you attach a 27 to it, it becomes very small and light, it is placed in the pocket of a jacket; with the MTO 1000 and easel you photograph the moon... I come from X-E2, whose gaps were speed of area-to-area selection, and at the same time. Now with the joystick or, even two moves on the touchscreen, you select the area with a lot of speed, and the Af, at least single, is definitely good. Also improved the af-c, although it is not a sports photo camera. The 24 mpx are definitely less manageable in little light, the difference with the 16 is noticeable in the micromox. If you had the stabilizer for me it would be 10. I love to produce on-camera jpeg from raw, for me they are gorgeous. As for "workability, software" etc., I leave the word to those who understand more than I do. The viewfinder is a little small, but nothing dramatic. The built-in flash, sometimes used for some games with long times, now you have to carry it with you... the only flaws to want to look for them. I can't find a better camera for my needs...

Pros: lightness, files like xt2 and similar processor, all in one hand

Cons: weak buffer for some quick-taken photos or short bursts

Opinion: The xe3 was and is the machine with which the feeling was taken immediately, just tried at a city marathon where I went only to try the fuji material 4 years ago. that trial started with this and two months later I had fuji kit. I use it professionally for both fashion and wedding services and leisure. It's a very good machine. I have big, chubby hands and for convenience I preferred to add a third-party grip to her. The apsc sensor as many will have found does not make you regret a ff for yield. Of course now comparing it to the newest has lagged a little behind but I feel I really recommend it to those who start professionally. low cost, high file quality when used with fixed and bright optics. The iso discourse leaves some time it finds because it depends on how you are used to shooting and for what purpose. I in the studio from this xe3 I printed a 70x 90 taken at 3200 iso and the noise that appeared on video during printing disappeared giving me a very beautiful image of a wedding. If you do anything else, as fashion services well, so much there over 400 very few times go and you will have a nice to do in the post because this machine is so detailed that you will be forced to soften (soften not make wax dolls) the skin of the model. In any case, to return to the previous speech this is a great machine for those who start in any sector or for those in need of a second body. price quality imbattibile.la found with a 35 f1.4 and 3 or 4 spare batteries and a 18-55 now at about 1000 euros (I say with the 18-55 because it's the cheapest optics if you also make videos like me). Video quality from 9.

Pros: Portability, controls, lightness, decentralized viewfinder, discretion, function keys

Cons: Battery life. Touch display. Difficulty in dialogue via APP

Opinion: Taken now for a couple of years to replace the XE-2, I have found a multitude of improvements: starting with the overall quality of the machine, which appears (or is) better built than the previous one. For my photographic genre, around the city is the best you can and by now I would replace it only with a possible XE-4. I find uncomfortable rear wheel being adjusted; In fact, a very slight pressure is enough and passes to the exaltation of the MAF. I completely disabled the rear display because I don't want to see the preview (it's always been so, since I've been digitally I've been photographing) but I wouldn't have used touch that I find uncomfortable instead of an advantage. Fabulous Joystick stick that allows complete control of the MAF and the various functions. Many possibilities of customization.

Pros: Light compact tremendously beautiful

Cons: No flash in the room. no tilting screen

Opinion: I owned x e1 -xe2 -now xe3 From one to 3 there is a difference to say the least abysmal. The tilting screen in 2020 should be by Law... there are too many situations you need, photos with the car above your head, from the ground, in the street. etc The touch screen is of virtually no use Everything else does not disappoint, rather it does not disappoint for those with large hands.

Pros: Compactness, image quality, lightness, intuitive controls, style.

Cons: Non-reclining screen, battery compartment and SD too close to the tripod screw, non-tropicalized, little grip

Opinion: Fantastic machine, used for over a year for landscape and street photos, surprised me for operational speed and image quality. I then added an X-T2 to the kit for the lack of tilting screen, double slot and independent battery compartment. Otherwise it is light and you can take it wherever you want without the need for large bags. The external flash is not a problem because even at high iso behaves well. It is also surprising that the keys are available because they are all easily accessible, compared to the X-T2 for example where "Playing" and "Delete" are placed a little out of reach. The touch screen is useful, in my opinion, just to see the photos, because it is quick to scroll a photo and zoom like on a mobile phone... rarely for focus, perhaps due to the lack of responsiveness of the touch system, I often kept it in OFF. The AF-C system is not as customizable as on X-T2 (although they share almost everything). Attached to a fixed as the 23F2 is perfect and barely visible to make street. Compared to the X-E1 from which I came it is smaller but then everything else is on another planet (AF speed, display, customization,etc)

Pros: General build quality, file quality, ergonomics in relation to portability (when you buy you know it's not a reflex), dinghies and controls in the right place, aesthetics

Cons: as much as it costs nothing

Opinion: It is a machine body all-rounder, robust and lender provides incredibly sharp and precise files, even raising the iso the quality does not give way (it is logical that at 51200 the noise comes out). Compared to the previous models it does not have the built-in flash and this makes it slightly more compact and provides a greater sense of robustness, in the package is still provided the small flash EF-X8 powered by the same cameras, exceptional for the " lightenups" (this also has a minimal footprint and a ridiculous weight). The battery does its job honestly, it's a compact mirrorless and you can't expect to have a truck's battery, however you can easily do even 500 clicks without changing it. Overall it is a machine with unparalleled value for money on the market.

Pros: Aesthetics, lightness, compactness, freshness, image quality.

Cons: Battery life, ergonomics.

Opinion: I'm not a professional, I'm not an engineer, I'm not a blogger who tries a thousand thousand devices just announced to not know anyone well, I'm not a photo-spamr, I'm not a fanboy of that other brand. I'm a photographer and a lot. I owned this machine for a year, before doing a review, I tried it well. Great machine, light, compact, beautiful. Excellent image quality in all conditions. Crystal clear and detailed Jpeg, clean files, if you don't want to stand to lie about it with raf, raw, nef, piff puff and paff is for you; but if you really want to go crazy with toggles, balls, darts and hands of Photoshop et alii you can also do the one always with excellent results. During a historic procession, held on a late summer afternoon, the canonists (alas I love Canon) did not show up, the nikonists after sunset watched more the displays than the scenes to be filmed (except one with a D750 and another with a D6), I photographed quiet even with street lights and darkness. That's it. Take this review for what it is. Ps. Another great advantage or disadvantage of this machine is that having the viewfinder decentralized, if you have a big nose, this will be on display. Bless you.

Pros: Aesthetics, size and weight, photo quality, colors in Jpg, easy menu. Robust, shock-resistant machine.

Cons: Missing the beautiful and useful ghieres of other Fuji models, the LCD is fixed.

Opinion: I keep it even though I now have two Sony bodies with their goals. In fact for "light" outputs is ideal and the range of goals enviable, although the older ones have really poor autofocus. In a few hundred grams even with some fixed lenses we have everything and you have fun, with results analogous to the full frame in 90% of situations.

Pros: Practicality, ergonomics, quality of Files, lightness

Cons: Display and Touch

Opinion: Coming from a XE-2 I knew the practicality of use and the quality of the images of this series. I took it and immediately, as I imagined, there was an impressive feeling. It's one of those machines that seem to be cut for me! Discreet to use in the genre I prefer (La Street) and combined with Fuji lenses (the 18mm is what I keep practically fixed) form a phenomenal combination. What I practically excluded, because I find it frankly useless, is the touch screen of which you could do without. Everything else: functions, menus, ergonomics, materials and command response is pretty much how I wanted it and thought. Battery useful to a considerable number of shots, excluding the Preview of the photo (bad habit of digital) and precisely the touch, of which I do not serve. Highly recommended!

Pros: Image quality, size, time ring presence

Cons: Wheel Time Little Ergonomic

Opinion: Bought, resolvated and then repurchased. It's one of those cameras you find out when you miss them. The image quality is that of a XT2 or an X-Pro2, but without some options that in fact remove it from the Pro band (double slot, tropicalization) that if you do not need you will not miss. Among the things that I appreciate are the lightness (although at the expense of some parts in polycarbonate in the body, since magnesium alloy has only the bottom and the shell), the small size, the yield, the layout of the keys, the aesthetic pleasantness. To the touch, the X-E2s from the feeling of being more robust than the X-E3. But maybe it's just a perception dictated by the lightness. Among those that I appreciate less the touch-screen (which I find a useless gadget), the size of the viewfinder eyepiece (a little ' small), the lever that puts everything in "automatic" that I do not need and finally the wheel of the Times less ergonomic of the Fuji sisters more Older. Beautiful to behold, seeds embedded in the relief on the shell, but less easy to operate than the other XE or xpro that I use. The tiltabile screen I've never used it in my life, so the fact that you miss it can't interest me less. In the field, it is a nice little and fast pet, with significant improvements (especially on focus) compared to previous versions.

Pros: First of all the weight, dimensions, the joystick, but above all the speed

Cons: Nobody or if we want the viewfinder a little bit

Opinion: What to say. Assuming that from Canon 6d I switched to Fuji about two years ago and believe me when I tell you that I would never go back, for many reasons but especially for compactness and portability, weight etc. Click only in JPEG I no longer need but especially SCA time Rent in raw and then convert and edit, in short I'm not a professional but believe me often even professionals need FF SLR. Back to this little Fuji that is not so small, well...... to buy. Two years ago I bought my first Fuji x-T1 (recently sold) a bit skeptical about this X-E3. My interest was for the X-T2 but someone had advised me this for its little weight, little clutter, and much more. I should have tried it before, but I decided, "if I don't like selling it." In my opinion, it's perfect..... i disabled the touch... because I do not like, I prefer to have everything on keys, but compared to the X-T1 that I had before and super fast, I repeat nothing to envy the older sisters but despite the T1 has given me for almost two years and CIRC At 5000 photos of the beautiful moments, I assure you that this little Fuji X-E3 You should try it, to understand its shutter speed and AF. I use it with two 23f 1.4 and 56f 1.2 lenses and I have to say it is superb. Maybe with both optics a bit unbalanced, for the weight of the optics in question, and I think that the X-E3 fits the 35MMF 1.4. With the latter in my opinion would be just a pocket camera, obtaining spectacular results. Very comfortable the joystick for the focus. My fortunately was love at first sight and I could tell you so much more about this little that differentiates the price. It costs less than the sister X-T2 and I much prefer this to the X-T20. The beautiful JPGs, you get to 12800 with little noise and with still acceptable files. In short, as Emiliano I am in love..... the cons we know them all. Fixed screen, not tropicalized, low battery, viewfinder a little small. If you know these limits it means that you buy it for other qualities. I recommend you try it, for me better at the moment at this price there is nothing. If you have any questions ask as well

Pros: Weight, footprint, joystick, beauty, viewfinder

Cons: No overhead LCD, small built-in flash

Opinion: For some time I have approached the world of Fujifilm, after selling all my kit Nikon ff. They are extraordinary machines with excellent image quality, very low weights and dimensions. No longer turns with heavy and bulky backpacks full of optics, among other things losing even shots or want to carry around always the kg in the back. Differences between the A-PSC and FF are very low today. There is no limit. Excellent machine with image quality at reflex levels. Beautiful Optics Park available, compared to competitors. I recommend everyone to get out of the usual Nikon and Canon schemes!

Pros: Quality of the machine body, Joystick, touch functions, lightness, refinement of the components, photo quality already in Jpeg.

Cons: It is not tropicalised, too many functions in my opinion useless, sometimes unintuitive menus.

Opinion: I bought this Gioellino after two years of downtime and coming from an entry level reflex (Nikon D3200). Having found me at the time better with fixed optics than with the usual zoom, even this time I preferred such optics with a Fuji XF23 F2. The machine is really well finished, a real pleasure for the eye especially for that kinda vintage style. The technology is not unknown to this shot missile as there is for all tastes, perhaps too many for a minimalist like me, but this is my personal taste. Very fast in the shot, well accessible and intuitive ring nuts, battery in my opinion very durable in time, grip that by sense of safety despite the size of the body. I was very pleased with the purchase, a mirrorless truly spectacular. It has all the cards in order to make the shoes to the "big" and really zero limits, if anything the limit in this case is the undersigned that does not have all the features offered, under control.

Pros: X-trans III sensor, touch screen (which I personally have disabled), fast and reliable focus, JPEG image quality

Cons: Battery autonomy, small body, fixed screen, non-stabilized, non-tropicalized, minimum visor.

Opinion: I had this car for a few weeks but it did not respond well to all my expectations. I liked the system of setting the automatisms and some technical solutions, but I was disappointed the consistency of the machine, certainly light but with a lot of plastic. Even the fixed screen did not convince me and I must say that the touch functions were immediately deactivated. Made in China, which would not be a problem, in particular I felt too much "lightness" between my hands despite the value of the ML format. However, I used the machine for what it offers, that is the quality of the X-Trans III sensor, the modulations that mimic the Fuji film styles (in particular Velvia and across), the AF speed, but I do not consider it a machine for ' intense ' use.

Pros: Speed, compactness, complete

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: I found it!!!!! After a long time wandering through Canon to Sony I found my ideal machine. Small and compact, very high quality of files and complete with every possible function. A machine with a fast, pocketable, ergonomic Af so much to use with one hand. With the 27mm Pancake becomes ideal for the Street for compactness (enters the pockets of any jacket). Battery lasts the right, but better to carry always behind some spare. By shooting in Jpeg you have files ready, and with the connection you can quickly pass the data on your smartphone or any external device. The lack of the orientable Display I thought was a limit, but in the end I found myself using at 90% the excellent viewfinder (which unlike my ex Sony A6000 does not have any kind of Lag) and with the handy Joystick (first time for me on a camera) I can A select the Af point and shoot in a very comfortable way. The ring nuts are fluid but not too soft, so as not to move them with a slight pressure, the quality of the materials can be seen with the naked eye, many customizable buttons, even 4 are integrated in the touchscreen display making it even faster The desired shutter setting. As for the Iso I managed to get very good images even in poorly lit places, like the churches, thanks to the luminous optics that Fuji makes available, the Grana is cmq nice and I set a max of 12,800 Iso where CMQ He can take the shot home....... That I personally dire....io the love!!!

Pros: Speed, ergonomics despite its size, holding iso, autofocus, vintage aesthetic, Auto mode, simple menu, perfect size, colors, jpeg

Cons: fixed screen, battery life (to be expected), writing lentina.

Opinion: I bought a few days ago this little gem, I have to say is great, those files are perfect already in jpeg, I come from canon 6 d where the JPEGs were disastrous I was obliged to take almost always only in raw also photos at home girls. Excellent ergonomics despite its size. The ISO seal is incredible I didn't think it was possible for an APS-C (certainly not at the level of a 6 d). We see with time if there will be some hidden flaws. Then let me say is gorgeous.

Pros: Very fast, essentiality of use, viewfinder, file quality

Cons: Fixed screen, write to SD a little slow

Opinion: A spectacular car. I find it beautiful aesthetically and very fast as an autofocus and general responsiveness, the image quality is the usual 24 MP Xtrans (in my opinion excellent). Very ergonomic, more than T20 according to my taste, for the different way of use (I have big hands). Fantastic the side viewfinder, very convenient. If you come from T1 and T2 it is a little small, but excellent and perfectly usable. It's amazing how much they managed to make it small, first reason of my purchase, it is perfect for use in travel/generic/street. Very few keys: it is true that there are touch gestures, but to me they seem a little cumbersome. If you love having everything at the touch of a button, if you are a fan of total minimalism, it is your machine. Let's move on to what can be improved: on-board writing (a little slow even with very fast tabs). Monitor (if they did tiltabile would be my ideal machine). Batteries (one gets used to it, they are in line with the other Fuji). Of course, for the seeker, it doesn't have a stabilizer. Ultimately it is not for everyone, but if you find yourself in the features is a machine that makes you love. Last tip: Choose your pairing, but for me to use it with a pair of fixed is pure delicious!

Pros: Beautiful, solid construction, complete, sensor top as t2, touchscreen, discreet, price, fast AF, simple and intuitive menu superb file quality, compactness of jewelry.

Cons: No one if compared to direct competitors and the price

Opinion: I am an advanced amateur photographer. Substitutes for me as a second body the e2s still operational, to which I assigned the f2 as the third body is 18 f2. First body xt2. I find xe3 one of the most balanced fuji, to which I have instead associated the series of objectives f2, constituting the most natural completion. Quality of the files identical to the xt2, the improvement of the autofocus extends its flexibility even in areas that were previously denied. Trace the xt2 in most of the functions, which differ for a few and I think marginal features such as the double slot, the tiltable screen, tropicalization and a few others, which in my case are absolutely marginal. Lightweight, discreet and impeccable, it is the top for street. At xt2 I have dedicated the most important fixed lenses and the 1024, 16 55.50 140, and 100 400 zoom, but I must say that the logic is more ergonomic than anything else, as they could easily be mounted on xe3.rnReading the previous comment of igalan, which even after reading severalSometimes it is not clear to me, the problem I think originates from the obvious communication difficulty, from grammatical to syntactic, clearly understandable if the writer is of foreign origin, in which case I apologize. I do not think the manual in Chinese is the problem, but the processing capacity of the subject as well as minimal knowledge in the photographic field. Since the comment also does not affect the performance of the machine, we invite you to open a specific post to share its concerns. The problem then of changing the settings by bringing the left eye closer to the viewfinder bumping the screen with the nose, can be solved using the right or left ear instead of the eyes.

Pros: sensor, compactness, price

Cons: nobody

Opinion: no counter that is not known before the purchase as a non-tilting monitor and lack of tropicalization. For the rest this is a machine that offering almost all the features of the big sister X-T2, I think it will sell a lot. Surely it should be used with the right eye in the viewfinder and the nose in plain sight in perfect rangefinger style. If someone finds difficult settings and settings I believe he has lived so far outside the fuji world since the menu follows in all respects a scheme tested for years. Of course if we pretend to read it in Chinese, it becomes difficult.

Pros: no defect

Cons: only the life of the batteries

Opinion: I would like to respond to Igalari76 ... I'm sorry, but before you shoot a bullshit on the Fuji X-E3 product I would advise you to read the manual carefully and to attend a photography course..the viewfinder being misaligned you have to look with your right eye if you are left-handed, do not take it !!!! .... I tried that of a friend of mine and to do street and landscapes I find it very performing .. so read and be informed and then if you still find critical flaws

Pros: Until now none

Cons: Written manual with the feet, settings not possible, info missing and / or not possible

Opinion: I've just bought this camera is the first approach I'm having is devastating. The manual is illegible, redundant and meaningless. The electronic viewfinder is unusable because in any way the eye is supported there is always some setting that is changed with the nose by touching the touch screen of the monitor. Involuntarily I modified, touching the nose, the focus and back with the back button set me the focus always in the center and no longer automatically. The manual is not helpful and does not seem to be possible to reset the camera to the factory, indeed, if someone knows how to give me some info on how to restore the automatic focus I would be grateful. For now, the product, beyond that, the quality of the photos that I can not say, for me is poor and shows many gaps in every respect.rnrnP.S I'm sorry that someone who bought this camera has not felt so offended to offend those who bought it and thatfinds it too cumbersome with a poorly written manual and that has the same problems even looking with the right eye as the cheekbone also touches the monitor. At the end of 1300 euros spent could also disable the touch-screen (if desired). Before I put this note of mine there were only 4 impressions and it is strange that soon after they have plumbed 2 fake reviewers among other things rude. What then I do not understand which basement these two come out .... carbon black had problems with the simple formatting of a card with a fuji, maybe he could read the manual in Chinese from the top of his professionalism or follow the advice of those who wrote that the manual is poorly written and is unclear (I've already heard this thing) and ceresi claudio great professional who is passed to canon (the opposite of nikon) because he has not passed the warranty removal of a hair from the lens (as if the others would have done it) and that you hear you have not given him 4 years warranty becauseis he has bought it with an invoice but does not use it professionally when from what world is no one makes a 4 year warranty with the invoice. obviously you too that you are a super expert take into account what you have been told in the comments and that is that even canon despite the tropicalization has an internal hair and that even the assistance canon is pitiful, even if then in reality it's just that now all brands are fucking buyers and that the overall quality of everything is much worse than before. and remember that before criticizing others think of the stupid things that you write

Pros: Weight and size, AF module, jpg ready for use, much more as it was intended

Cons: Grip very uncomfortable, good but not good

Opinion: New finding at half price of xt2 (at the time of review), I could not resist, after all I had a few days to find a body machine. Rn I think the personal feeling is towards the genus xt1 / xt2 as far as ergonomics, I think however, that with an additional grip you can hold better in your hand, perhaps even with the only leather case.rnElectronic software level is great, sliding menus and quick commands selection. At analog level, button bosses etc, perfect for its kind, I would have assigned it a style xt style lever for the drive, but well, it is thought as it looks. The joystick then makes a difference in everything.rnFrom the perfect module thinking about what it was before, apart from birdlife or sport where I do not express it, we are like pairs of reflexes, in single, continuous, and low light conditions - absent.rnEvf Improvable, a little small, without eyepiece and the switch between monitor and slow finder, online there are reviews of how it is with respect to the xt2.rnThese are with firmware base, and usually Fuji compie the big steps in development, when competitors such as Canon and Nikon can not even take you out of the menu. rnrnA nice 9, if you do not get it just because you do not understand you have to buy a xt2

Pros: file quality, compactness, lightness, ergonomics, construction, evf / monitor quality, same xt2 batteries, auto lever. Aesthetics!

Cons: (but we know it before you buy it), Auto lever (then I explain why it's both in the pro and in the counter), stand clamping that prevents access to the battery compartment (and here who wants to overcome it will probably have additional grip or screw , unscrew and vice versa ....)

Opinion: I am saying that it is not, and does not want to be, a review but only of simple usage considerations, in scattered order, made after a week of daily use in Portugal. This was a great opportunity for me to test it right in the field. rnrnSecond premise: I did not read the manual except for the touch. However for those who know Fuji is how to use a xt2. (I will only speak xt2 / xe2 as a comparison because I do not know the rest). rnrnThe body is really beautiful and well done. Despite being a slender thread of the older sister, it is also handled better. The thumb wheel optimized grip makes it easier for the front grip, even without the additional grip, which I usually use but which was not yet sold at the exit of the machine. I do not even know if I will take the positive feedback and considering I already use it on xt2. I think to keep the xe3 as it is, compact enough to be put into your pocket whenever you wantence. Frankly for now I do not care about touch, and so I disable functions related to af and snap. However, I find it hard to take off the mechanical cruise and replace it with the touch of the screen. I found it easy to use this mode and I appreciate cleaning the back of the machine too many buttons. It was fantastic then the front ring that made me finally find the feedback of the xt2. With that control lever iso or exposure compensation without distraction to go to look for some menu or function key. It was time! A bit more minutes of the xt2 but no problems found in the use. I find it a little gem of ergonomics this Fujina! Very good monitor but with the blinding Portuguese I had to almost always use EVF. This also applies to xt2. I look evf very good but very small, as for the previous sister. I would have liked the Oly Pen F finder (also on xt2) but you can not have it all. It is only a pity that the viewfinder does not have a frame reduction on the xt2; wouldfacilitated the complete view of the field, without shifting the head, even to those who, like me, wear glasses. Auto Lever: Fantastic! I always use the machines in manual but when you need to take a snapshot photo, this mode is exceptional because it excludes any adjustments, including af / mf, and proceeds to a full auto shot that gave me some satisfaction! Too bad that then I realized that this mode excludes the raw and therefore must be "good the first". I really hope for a firmware upgrade that does not rule out raw in this mode. Very fast, I have the impression that it is a more responsive thread than xt2 but maybe it's just my illusion. However, I have the feeling, even with the 35mm f1.4 of higher running speed, almost as the lens has become a "mark II". Continuous F: Not given because I do not use it. Generally the machine is as fast as, and never less than, the xt2. rnrnParte videos: they say be, obviousso, less of the xt2 in 4K as the quality would be xt20 (so I guess I understood from the first dpreview trials). Besides, all the promotions made by Fuji for xe3 are shot with xt2 ... Of clips I did some at home for trial and they looked nice. In Portugal I've done several of them, both with xe3 and with xt2, except in Lisbon, but only when I'm editing I can make a judgment. Of course I can not make the comparison last year when I took raw video. This year I was more "easy" .rnrn I conclude that I'm happy to have replaced xe2 with this because in addition to finding files at the same level of admirers, so the various machines can work all alike for quality, I found that Improvements over the previous x and justification of the change. My rating is 8
