Pros: Beautiful and elegant, natural colors and rich in nuances, excellent definition for a 16mp, good electronic viewfinder although not very wide, convenient distribution of controls, good dynamic range especially in RAW where you extract many shades of gray, good built-in flash, feather weight, automatic screen/EVF passage very fast (much better than on the XT20), low price even from new.
Cons: Unreliable autofocus in non-optimal light conditions. Ready just 8 seconds after ignition. The different profiles that can be stored sometimes with shutdown are lost. Non-touch LCD screen, so much i don't need it, and not tiltable, and this would be useful instead. Feather weight yes but it is 90% plastic, ignition pulses worthy of a toy. It's not made for videos.
Opinion: This review is based on the comparison with the XT20: until December 2020 I had it but incidentally I ruined the sensor and had to replace it. In a shop in Trieste I took a new X-E2S inventory at 360eu. The only 16mp versus 24mp of the XT20 is fine: better dynamic range and hold at high ISOs, I saw it right away. The difference in microdefinance on the computer is not seen, and for an APS-C 24mp sensor there are perhaps too many. My impressions but this X-E2S has a chromatic scale a more precise thread than the XT20 (e.g. in foliage and clouds), snapping in Provia with saturation +1. Slightly more natural images even if the detail is necessarily inferior, but as already mentioned this is not seen. What is just wrong is autofocus, subject to frequent blocks if the subject is not well contrasted or illuminated. Shooting in the evening or to say on the snow must be done by manual otherwise it can become a nightmare. I only take photographs and the poor video performance of the X-E2S for me is money saved, but those who care about the videos will do well to look elsewhere. It is not a super-demanding machine, also because it is rather slow in all its functions - dated processor - and also of economic construction. From its has, under the right conditions, excellent image quality in both RAW and JPEG, as well as numerous configurable parameters, including the famous film simulations plus other toy camera or psychedelia or fog etc. maybe useless but cmq there are. Given the wide availability of X- attack optics with an excellent q/p ratio, those who want to start photographing seriously spending little can be happy and happy. Among other things, it will spend less than with other brands also for spare batteries, grips, etc. Fujifilm has always focused on the q/p ratio, which in the case of this 2016 product is even more enticing. Too bad for the screen not tilting, but quoting Billy Wilder 'no one is perfect'. Especially at this price. |
