Pros: lightness, file quality, compatibility with vintage optics, black and white

Cons: really poor battery life, keys

Opinion: It is a cute machine equipped with a good xtrans sensor, it has the right mpx for the quality of the lenses that mount. The menu is a bit like this, the keys often do not remember which function they correspond to so the usability is a little slow. The good thing is the ability to mount vintage optics and some are really great while keeping the focus endlessly. The quality of the files is great, they do not have a great "pastiness" and do not make you dream as much as in nikons that it is another level but they are really sharp in terms of overall sharpness. Of course, the fact that it is mirrorless means that if you miss a shot maybe you really have to read a photography manual since you have the preview of the XD shot. let's say that "just know how to look and have taste". so it's suitable for travel and street photography where you don't have time to reason. The colors are good slightly cold in the car wb so you have to raise the kelvins a little, instead the whites and blacks are very interesting ...

Pros: Compact, light and beautiful

Cons: I don't know

Opinion: My first Fuji, my first serious camera. Even today I regret having sold it for a few pennies to finance the XH1, I miss its compactness, its style, its lightness. I still remember with pleasure the legendary updates of Fuji that every 5-6 months they updated the E2 to new life, with the last one coming to the same level as the XT1, Af decent, good especially in AF-S. If I had stayed with the XE2 and 1855 I could have lived happily and instead fell into the vortex of compulsive buying, too bad.

Pros: Very light, built very well, jpg ready, fantastic in B/W and color portraits.

Cons: Battery that lasts a little (but the batteries always last a little).

Opinion: How can a good-looking "Nanerottola" compete with the Giants? Just by lining up respectable files... And I could already greet everyone here! The 16 megapixels are squeezed to the last and return photos to remain open-mouthed. Transportability and lightness that makes you forget to have it and an optical park to bring the stomach ache to the Giants on cited. There are virtually adapters for every type of optics, obviously losing the AF functions at the moment (except for Canon). Updated with firmware 4.11 (Fuji releases updates) becomes another machine... And here's the second greeting. Ideal for urban photography strictly in B/W and fantastic rendition of the complexion in color portraits. Held in the amazing high ISO and when you really exaggerates the noise is never unpleasant. Almost finished sviolinate because I have yet to add that is really beautiful aesthetically. Negative Note: Battery life (if accustomed to APS-C and FF). The house declares 350 shots, realistically makes it 300 or so. Highly recommended the purchase of additional batteries. Bought only body with adapter for Nikon optics, just to experiment, (14mm-50mm-85mm) But I'm seriously thinking of doing the "jumping quail" and finally go to the Fuji system. Familiarity with the electronic viewfinder and the assisted focus (if used in manual) "calves" only beautiful files and becomes amazing with its objectives. Finally: Does it make sense to buy a Fuji X-E2 in 2019? In my humble opinion... MUCH, considering the prices of the used and the quality it gives. Then you do! P.S. be careful... Addictive and does not allow rehabilitation!

Pros: Beautiful, well built, great rows, complete and simple

Cons: Slow

Opinion: Let's start by saying that it has a very good construction, I have a specimen equal to the new one and I will see how it will hold up time. In AF-S in is perfect, in AF-C it is ridiculous, in manual the focus peaking is not much, I prefer to use the viewfinder magnification. It's slow in shots, it takes seconds to save and the buffering itself fills up in a second, despite the fast SDused used. But to use is very funny, also produces "analog" files, I had the X-T20 and it was much more "dense and digital" as a rendering, the X-E2 has a really different stamp, clean, candid but detailed images and with a lot of dynamic range, here the x-trans shows its character and with the latest lightrooms you work very well. To buy only if you know what you are looking for, it does everything but it is not instantaneous, it pays off with so much quality.

Pros: Layout of the controls, jpg quality, ergonomics, excellent compromise price quality, white balance, fuji film simulations, B & W etc ....

Cons: None in particular, EVF viewfinder sensor little sensitive with high lights, raw to be treated with irridient or c1

Opinion: Used as a second body to carry around, after the firmware update 4 has become an XE2S (the review refers to the updated product), do not list the features, since the electronic shutter at 1/32000 "to improve the f, face detection etc .... has become a great camera, no less disfigure the buttons well 4 side in addition to the pad and other fully customizable buttons allow a direct and immediate approach to the functions, in some cases better than higher models, I mistakenly took a XT20 selling this excellent travel companion, regretfully regret it, it is true the XT20 superior in everything from the sensor to the IQ but not in ergonomics, the pad is more distant from the thumb and you do not risk touching one of the 4 keys that instead happens in the XT20 , then the 4 side buttons excellent and direct there are not in the XT20.rnA camera snubbed and underestimated in many respects that instead has excellent potential for use in ambio reportage and street, with its jpg ready and well defined and B%26W as a masterpiece as tradition Fuji is certainly on a higher range, today is at ridiculous prices with about € 250-300 are bought some good used, new models XT20-XE3 do not have a body so well proggettata.rnThe battery life is in line with the other ML about 250-350 shots if deactivated LCD.rnQI: I printed up to 50x130cm on panel for me good prints with minimal post from raw, camera promoted 9+

Pros: File quality, ergonomics, ease of use.

Cons: In my use honestly nothing special

Opinion: Taking a t10, has quickly become my main body for a simple ergonomic factor, I'm passionate about the side viewfinder ... with upgrades it's perfect for what I have to do, mostly portraiture, coupled with 35mm 1.4 I find it cool, I come from the FF world and I mainly use the 50 1.4, Fuji does not regret having made the full passage to mirrorless. The AF system obviously is not suitable for those who have to do photo shoots or photo shoots, but in return it is accurate and perfect for my purposes, optics with large apertures, 1.4 and 1.2. As for the review of the t10 I do not insert the battery life between defects because it is common to this type of machine, so you already know it and for who like me has made the move to lighten up, bringing some spare battery is not A big problem compared to the weight of the kit I had before! From my own point of view, the X system is promoted to full marks!

Pros: aesthetics, functionality, manageability, EVF on the left side and not in the center and all the advantages of the sensor X-Trans

Cons: battery life (but you know), the LCD screen does not do any function if you are 'selected only the EVF

Opinion: The X-E2 and 'was my second Fuji camera that I bought almost two years ago. I 'liked right away and I found there are very well immediately. After the latest update of the software and 'become perfect in my opinion. He manages to work quite well even the AF 60mm Fuji !!!! The only thing I do not like about this machine 'that if you set the function of the use of only the EVF screen does not do' anything. So if you want to go into the menu or if you want to look at the data of a picture you have to do it peering into the EVF. This and 'very impractical and very inconvenient. For everything else in my opinion and 'fabulous especially since the last update. Straconsigliatissima !!!! Rating 9 Max

Pros: simply fantastic with its retro and lightweight body, made excellent high ISO.

Cons: I have three months that the use and apart from the problem of battery that lasts little, and the fact that he does not tropicalization, I have not encountered other problems.

Opinion: I come from Canon, but can assure you that does not regret, I find it a bit 'most cherished goals. Either way can carry it anywhere and not be tired, very good fire management in manual and excellent electronic viewfinder. The strongly advise that begins to enter the picture mono semi-professional but also as a second machine.

Pros: Aesthetically it is wonderful, quality image at the top, discretion and silence, rear display excellent

Cons: Battery life (always better to have one or two in your pocket), AF sometimes inaccurate especially in low light

Opinion: I already have a XE-1 so I know the X series of Fuji, and already with one I was comfortable. I took the XE-2 is used (but nearly new) to be improved especially for the WIFI and the electronic viewfinder. All improvements that I have found in this camera. The picture quality is undoubtedly the TOP of the range in the APS-C sensors. FA is definitely better than the XE-1, especially in the speed of engagement ... remains a little "lacking" in low light ... but nothing to worry about. Excellent management manual focus, with both the Focus Peaking that with the broken image, you are able to use with great satisfaction even manual lenses of third parties with great entertainment. The use mainly with his 18-55 and 35 1.4 ... It 'a camera that you buy used now at a great price and that definitely can give a lot of satisfaction. Not to mention the park optical Fuji undoubtedly be an added value to the quality of the final images. Attention to battery life, simple cKing have one or two in your pocket.

Pros: Quality and image files, kept at high ISO impressive, electronic viewfinder very useful but ... (see cons), practical manual

Cons: Battery life (approx 250 shots, the spare is also mandatory in the outputs short), AF struggling in dark, false image to the EVF and LCD monitor SCREENS

Opinion: socket used with lens 18. 55, that is, I immediately felt at home with the management of the parameters, the lens aperture find it more practical, the same goes for the ring time and exposure correction. I come from Nikon. sharpness in jpeg truly remarkable. I will continue testing with more time in the coming days, but I'm pleasantly impressing. AF have not found it too slow (in the sense: if you do not do sports photos or moving subjects "on the fly" is divinely), however, accuses difficulties in situations of low light. the electronic viewfinder it was a pleasant surprise, but the picture seems to me to distort the color scheme from this LCD SCREENS, and even to the monitor. nothing serious: slightly darker and less vivid in monitor.rnper park objectives, that I will always have enough little, but in the essential (apart from the huge canvases) lacks nothing, are just expensive, but the quality c 'and it is very well paga.rnvideols

Pros: Lightweight yet sturdy, RAW (RAF) rich in information.

Cons: Battery life, not intuitive menu (for me, coming from Canon!)

Opinion: Mirrorless charming, perhaps a little expensive. The RAW (RAF) are very rich in information, you can bring out a lot of the areas in shadow and the colors are more vibrant. The autofocus is decent, with optical kit 18-55 f2.8 / 4 you can not get a good sharpness (but do not expect precision sniper!). All in all a good car to always carry in your bag or a good second car to take to work for a wedding or for a report.

Pros: Compactness, quality of the file, made at high ISO, simple controls, so many wheels where you can set everything at hand, excellent jpeg, ergonomics (for me), another category

Cons: Honestly I have not yet found, perhaps sometimes the auto focus in low-light conditions

Opinion: Well, I bought this gem a few months ago, I tried it immediately out of the landscape for a walk, you say it does not weigh anything, you carry it along and forget it, and you have to hand in the neck (not to make Chinese tourists ) ... rnTestata unparalleled quality in a marriage, I had with me D7000 and various optics, is a bit that I pondered the move to mirrorless, moral of the story remained in the D7000 zaino.rnUna made at high use in church from fear, I shot at ISO 4000 or 5000 without any problems, perfect pictures sharp, in focus, a detail is an incredible three-dimensionality, coupled with the 18-55 2.8-4 is perfect, but the best I got with the 23 mm 1.4, I was in the scene as never before ... rnDecido to test it on another wedding, the same as before, so much so that those who accompanied him very skeptical at first, once given the file and its D3s with me said quietly use it, scary for resa.rnQualche next day, I sold the Nikon kit and I added to a kit Fuji xt1 and the fantastic ... 50-140 rnrnBeh boysOnce placed a minimum auto focus I think the market mirrorless Sara very ahead

Pros: Style, ergonomics, simplicity make managing functions, quality files.

Cons: Lack tropicalization, autofocus.

Opinion: I have owned for about six months this beautiful machine with satisfaction. Especially because it does not regret the camera if not for that focus speed in moving subjects reveals its limitations. The electronic viewfinder I found, perhaps, even better than the D800 querllo. Easy and intuitive management functions, supplied with a detailed manual and exhaustive. Excellent quality of files, comparable to machines of higher level. Accompanied me on several releases out the door, even in extreme weather conditions, cold and rain without ever missing a beat. Replaced by a few days for another system ML for the lack of weather sealing and the limited park optic Fuji.

Pros: Picture quality at high ISO, optical quality at an affordable cost, discrete autofocus. Excellent image definition and color management. Weight and dimensions

Cons: battery life, autofocus slower than a reflex, less feeling in the management of the body

Opinion: I took this camera kit with 18-55, for its size and for the curiosity to try the sensor x-trans, I must say that the quality of the photos produced has gone beyond my expectations. I come from a Nikon D7100 and I still have it and use a Sony A6000 downgraded to a machine for shooting video, activities in which I believe is unsurpassed, and as a car for family use. I must say from the very first shots that the quality of RAF files produced by X-E2 is, in my opinion, superior to that produced by both the D7100 is the sony A6000, although the latter machines with a 24 megapixel sensor. The sensor x-trans that is attached to the fuji, in my opinion, is superior to detail, color management, and especially for low noise at high ISO. Even the camera body is sturdy and well-made though not weather sealed and recalls the old analog machines rangefinder. The electronic viewfinder is just great! I purchased along with 18-55 a 27 mm / 2.8 pancake that makes the machine truly pocket. The purchase of fuji, given the quality of photos produced, for now I have convinced you to postpone the transition to FF. There are still some known defects of the system such as ML autofocus slightly slower in difficult lighting conditions, a lower overall responsiveness than the SLR, a park dedicated optics, though quality is not extended as the park optical nikon or canon, that defects in the 'I have also seen in other Sony A6000. In any case, the machine is usable with a bit of foresight in 100% of cases. I took photos of the stormy sea at 23 pm at 6400 ISO with a quality management of the noise significantly higher than the one I got with the nikon or with the sony in similar circumstances.

Pros: high iso incredible tightness, even better than many SLR. Convenient and quick adjustment and in focus. Sensitive to low and high lights, inimitable colors. Abundance of details, from the primacy. Excellent exposure metering. high quality files.

Cons: Battery life: about 300. Automatically you will burn the white clouds. Banding pronounced and abnormal.

Opinion: Great performance autofocus with the latest update, much more precise and fast. Now, even in situations of low light it has no hesitation, almost another machine (version January 2016). Machine suitable for almost everything, but especially to bring in travel, also challenging with little weight. I think the dream of photographers who have had previous experience with analog. The structure and the commands are like the old SLR and a sense of immediacy in sudden changes. Solid sturdy, but lightweight. Although the XE2 and XT1 are the machines that are to be preferred by the reporter, remember that it is also suitable for many other types of photographs (recommended by National Geographic for all travel types among the compact). Warnings, is a manic machine of photography that can create problems in the relationship, because of its easy portability, wives and husbands complain ..... "Either I or the machine!"

Pros: Aesthetics fantastic, the best electronic viewfinder pentaprism, white balance, ergonomics, weight and size to a minimum, control, sensor, image quality, ISO estate, raw full-bodied and full of information

Cons: Battery life ridiculous, one SD slot, focus sometimes inaccurate in low light conditions, raw heavy and unable to save compressed lossless

Opinion: I begin by saying that the X-E2 is not a camera defect-free, but has a domineering charm. The sights of this x-e2 is great: being electronically allows to photograph the dark as it is light and lets you see the shot before running it. This allows for perfectly exposed pictures. No ghosting or slowdowns. In very poor lighting conditions (boundary conditions ...) if you have to focus on the detail autofocus can be inaccurate and difficult. rnIl white balance is very good, better than most new SLR FF. With 4 buttons fn everything is within reach without taking your eye from the viewfinder and manage the camera becomes easy. The sensor trans-x is very good, however the lack of low-pass filter as well as the sharpness brings out the noise on time. A 3200 iso is nonetheless inaudible to manifest itself, in a completely acceptable, by iso 4000 starts to be a little 'longer present but always within the limits. The noise isstill very "analog" and also ISO 6400 is not particularly troublesome. The main drawbacks are the ridiculous battery life (on average 300 shots), make it impossible to save in raw lossless compressed (a raf weighs 34 mb ...) and of course the autofocus does not always rise to the occasion more criticism. RNLA real big difference between the system and the fuji reflex and that with the first photograph must know really well and have a keen sense of composition. This is because a fuji forgives less. SLRs have too many automatic and in one way or another they take home the shot. If overnight SLRs disappeared I think that professionals would remain 1/100 of those who are there. But behind clothes retro flavor there is also a lot of technology. Ergonomics, size and weight to a minimum, make it an alternative for a professional.

Pros: weight - amazing picture quality????? (it's just that I have not understood yet use to bottom) - at high iso is not less than the upper value of Nikon SLR - 10 - 24xf is greater than the amount dx nikkor - good idea of ??the two rings old style SLR even if you go to silt up in a cumbersome software - very low noise and even beautiful to look at

Cons: bad software (the Italian version is also loosely translated) - too many customizable buttons - vision in the electronic viewfinder sometimes shocking and not corresponding to the real snap - ridiculous battery life (as if there was the possibility of reflex to always turn off the display ) - the diagram iso car prefers the max iso-rnindispensabile on condition of highlights and shadows with strong intervention acr - the lack of a quick adjustment of ISO is that the choice of the point of focus

Opinion: usually use Nikon pro, this would seem a toy that seems to me to produce incredible pictures with the two rnusata xf 10-24 and 55-200 offers a range of images with very high weight and volume very low rnil sensor I think is not comparable to anything in circulation at least at home nikonrni defects seen the high prices are certainly not excusable / justifiable and I will not be overcome, even though in reality it would be enough of a nikon d90 software to realize the convenience and flexibility of use that divides a nice toy to a body performance (I think this might be even bloodthirsty) rnpersonalmante sorry because both the sensor and the two lenses that I have tried are safe qualitàrn

Pros: Design, management, ISO, image quality and color

Cons: Maybe an AF a little slow, but it depends on the needs

Opinion: I come from a system with FF D700. When I made the switch to this machine I did it for reasons of space and weight, many times I let the machine stops not take away backpack with heavy machinery and optics. I must say that I am completely satisfied and I'm not regretting anything for my old D700. I use this machine mainly with 35mm 1.4 and the quality of the images that come out is really impressive even at high ISO. The small size allow you to always have it with you. In conclusion, I believe that Fuji is doing a crazy job with this type of machine also updating the firmware of the camera body and lenses.

Pros: FF performance, robust and ergonomic, discreet and essential

Cons: Switching the display / viewfinder menu

Opinion: Aside against the aforementioned, I find the X-E2 just fantastic. Check in from all kinds of SLR and mirrorless and I do not regret any of them. The definition with any optic is above many competitors definitely more expensive. I found my system. Fuji finally put on the market products with exciting performance and at the same time light and content. Claudio

Pros: An excellent color reproduction, high definition image acquisition and rapid AF focusing, really improved since the X-E1 effective and accurate.

Cons: The only problematic aspect is the development of the RAF, in the sense that there are still no software that allow a complete workflow (Capture One is great, probably the best for color, Photo Nija very good for the extrapolation of the details but lacks for highlight recovery, SILKYPIX demosaicizza files very well but lacking in many features, Lightroom and Camera Raw are still inadequate compared to others)

Opinion: A camera somewhat basic, almost spartan, but able to express a photographic quality with few rivals, files are rich in detail and color-pleasing in all conditions of use. The picture quality is outstanding, absolutely at the top of the industry APS-C and embarrasses even some full frame cameras. The X-Trans sensor is really extraordinary in the containment of noise, which is never an issue until the threshold of ISO 6400.

Pros: Design, weight, dimensions, features, high ISO noise, the Q button is brilliant ....

Cons: The raw (raf) are not manageable directly from Camera Raw

Opinion: Impressive! For economic reasons I sold my kit Canon 5DmkII format from 0.17 to 40 the mythical sigma 85 1.4. Now I could take this little gem that really do not make me regret over the world so much Canon. Now finally port the machine always with me, before the thought of machine + bg + lens ... It was the desire to spend. I have rediscovered the pleasure of taking pictures for Me! I shot at ISO 800 planning to be at ISO 100, the simulation film I can avoid many hours spent to lose sight of Fs. 5 Options bw, 5 color and some kind miniature do not entertain the least! Highly recommended thinking then that will be released on March 56 (85 full) 1.2 .... Thanks fuji!
