Pros: X-Trans sensor, excellent JPEG image quality, crisp and tilting LCD

Cons: lack of electronic levelling

Opinion: Stylish and well built mirrorless camera. Noise is not a problem until the highest sensitivities, you can shoot safely in low light conditions. With adaptation rings you can mount all vintage optics. Recommended as a second pocket and light body. It is used for less than 200 euros. see example: https://www.juzaphoto.com/galleria.php?t=3906775&l=it

Pros: small, solid, essential, technological at the right point

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: I needed a camera that made beautiful photos, small to always carry in the pouch, used on RCE with 2-year warranty paid 180 euros body only. a bargain I would say, combining a lens f2 35 mm I got a great result, practical and quality. It may seem amateur, old and little pro but I don't give a damn the results there are

Pros: Complete, handy, excellent picture quality.

Cons: Not relevant

Opinion: It was a great surprise! RnResused after having a Sony A5000 and an A5100, to support the xt1 and a Nikon D3300.rnHa commands that are handy, it is compact enough to be in the dashboard of the car.rnL 'pairing with the 16-50 is fantastic.rnI do not know why but the photos are simply beautiful. Sharp, beautiful colors both in exterior and interior. The white balance is as I like.rnDi all the cameras that I had is the one that cost me less is that it generates the best files without effort ... rnHe resolution suitable not to generate files too heavy but with an excellent detail. Really happy to have bought it!

Pros: Dimensions, lightness, display, high ISO resistance, quick controls, possibility to use vintage optics, tilt flash

Cons: autofocus in low light, handle, power button

Opinion: In my opinion, this small and light machine allows you to experiment a bit 'of everything you can do in the world of photography. The Xtrans sensor allows you to take good pictures even in low light conditions where you have to pull up the ISO sensitivity, without losing too much detail due to the noise. The commands are few and essential: in manual mode the large dial controls the exposure time, the small one (vertically) the diaphragms of the XC lenses without aperture ring and the fn key allows you to quickly change ISO. If you use manual focus, the small dial can be pressed to activate the magnification on the display. For those with small or medium hands it is perfect. Too bad only for the little pronounced handle and the awkward and sometimes a little hard key. I use it with the two XC lenses 16-50 and 50-230 and vintage Canon FD and LTM manual lenses. The use with optics too big and heavy is obviously inconvenient, it is a body machine to usemainly with small and light lenses, not too long focal length. The display impressed me for detail and visibility even with lots of light, it tilts 90 ° downwards and upwards, allowing you to photograph over the crowd or use low perspectives without spreading on the ground. The battery has a standard life for a mirrorless (not exceptional then), it is good to have 1/2 spare if you want to take a lot of pictures. I use the flash a little but the possibility offered by the pop up flash that can be directed upwards to light up the rebound is something that many more expensive machines do not give. Autofocus can misfire in low light if you do not find anything bright enough to hook it on, thankfully these are quite rare situations. Vote 9.

Pros: Lightness, compactness, image quality (just quench the images published on this site). price / quality ratio.

Cons: Few and not much. Poor reactivity in circles of great dynamism

Opinion: The quality of the pictures is the same if not the best (I like the grading of color rendering and the B / N incisiveness) of the next models with equal sensors, at the same optics, obviously. Even with Nikon and Canon's APS-C models, it does not even matter. has Canon color-coding chassis and Nikon-like sharpness / sharpness, all in a minimal body, to give you the best weight. I do not think the perfect machine exists, and this is not the case, but I believe there are so many rivals. vote9.5 Thank you for your attention.

Pros: Handy and lightweight with all the quality Fuji X-Trans. Tilting LCD, large, clear even in bright sunlight, integrated flash, practical and beautiful, precious, but still sober.

Cons: Shortly reactive and not suitable for moving subjects, because the moment you catch ... not even if quickly burst, filters B / N replaced with effettacci toy, not customizations stored in special menus, as in the sisters 'major' .rnErgonomia: small that you do not catch and optional grip is a must.

Opinion: Every time I pick up a Fuji X series, I am convinced that aliens have landed on earth ... and that this technology is used in their ... rnPresa 180 euro ... we pretend that it paid at least 4 times as much , otherwise I could not move alcuna.rnAffiancata criticism of her majesty the diva X-Pro1 ... allows me perspectives from below without kissing the cobblestones .... ruining the work of my osteopath ... thanks tilting the LCD, which, I wonder why, in many reviews it says that there is ... mha! rnAllora, the photo quality is IDENTICAL to the X-Pro1, for the same optics, of course. And I do not add more. But overly weighs less and looks like a giocattolino.rnDoveva be the second body, but since I have it became the first, apart from black and white view of the chapel that made eleminando simulation of color filters and replacing it with that crap the effects that leave a choice of color and the rest in B / N ... YUCK !!! But have you gone mad in Fuji? Oh well ... now I calm down ... rnih compenso has the Dynamic filter that alone is worth the purchase and the B / N is still valid and personalizzabile.rnAnche some other filters for the color is not bad, as the low key, for esempio.rnFunzionalmente, is all in place. Unfortunately one has memorized customization, callable from wheel, like many other settings dedicated to the portrait, landscape and so on. etc. but not editable from the menu. In manual, the live view on the display allows for the creativity immediata.rnSe did with the Xpro software, it would be a great thing. It is not ... maybe a aggiornamentino? ... oh well ... I think this blowjob rnSe the machine has an image quality at least equal to a 5D Mark III ... I think it's one of those things that will stay with me forever.

Pros: Light, image quality, fast burst, iso hold, tilting display, focus points, beautiful aesthetically.

Cons: It is small (often not a disadvantage) but can transform with hand grip, it does not have the viewfinder.

Opinion: It has all the necessary requirements to be able to call it "camera" although at first glance, perhaps, it may not incite fear. The quality of the images with the right goals I prefer it also to those baked by my former canon 7d. "#ISO 100 to 25600." Black and white is very pleasant, already set quite well, does not need too many "post productions". It has many filters for images. On the high iso holds well, especially if you shoot in raw. For use with optics from 600 grams and up, I bought a fabulous metal hand grip, which allows you to transform the little one from Bruce Banner to the incredible Hulk ! I call it fabulous, because compared to the original (which I sold) it allows agile access to the battery and memory card, without having to disassemble it. Vote 9

Pros: compact, manegevole, significant on high ISO, folding screen

Cons: lack viewfinder af

Opinion: Let's say it was for months on my second body coupled to the x-t1. I have never regretted having used, he has always given me great soddifazioni. I used it a lot for landscapes and has often been troubled by long exposures but there was never a time that not behaved worthily. Obviously the lack of viewfinder makes me look like a toy, but it is not. I appreciate the shape and manageability, reclining screen and the estate of the iso. I would not go above 800 but 1600 is not really evil.

Pros: Compact, high-quality screen, B & W great, beautiful design, intuitive, fine JPEG, holds up well up to 1600 ISO

Cons: smartphone app a bit 'slow, plastic outer shell, no folding screen 180 degrees, AF so-so

Opinion: The own for about a month and it's finally time to speak my mind on my first mirrorless. I state by saying that I paid only € 180 used in gray and brown version (slightly rare) and use with the lens XC 16-50 Ois first version (unfortunately). Let's start from the positive aspects of this camera and the first place I put the compactness of the camera body, in fact, I usually take it with me in his coat pocket already mounted the lens XC 16-50. The camera has no viewfinder so everything must be done across the screen that comes with a good resolution and illumination, and also can be tilted at different angles. JPEG files that can bring out this car for me, coming from smartphones and compact world is really great and I was thrilled by the remarkable contrast in B & W, really terrific. Fuji has designed this product to be user friendly and suitable for beginners (like me) and it has the buttons positioned optimally and takes familiarity with the machin a full manual with a few days of use, moreover all this is combined with a very successful design. Browsing to 1600 ISO file on my monitor Dell U2713HM known very little noise compared for example to a reflex entry like the Sony a58k (which I used for a full day). We know that no camera is perfect and in fact even the XM1 is no exception. I hate the coupling between slow app Android smartphone and camera, I do not speak of the transfer rate is high even if you pass a 16MP file, but just the app's ability to hook the camera in seconds. I was disappointed a bit 'in that the outer shell of the product is of plastic, although it is still a quality plastic since only I noticed the fact after a careful observation. One feature that marks this camera as a product of 2013 is the lack of being able to overturn of 180 degrees of the screen for perfect self-portraits, serious flaw given that the lens of this fotocamerely because the price is just young. This last point is not really against a figure could also be caused by my inexperience or the objective, I am talking of 'AF, it mostly at night or blacks / dark objects hard to focus while in daylight or in some light is perfect.

Pros: Compactness, tilt monitor, made at high ISO, excellent sensor, aesthetically flawless

Cons: Autofocus a bit 'and recalcitrant few jpeg mode than older sisters (from xe2 to rise)

Opinion: I possess the most mistreated of Fujifilm for about two years and do not think I ever sell it. This gem is a hallucinatory comfort, the use as a second body, a great car Walking combined with the 18mm f / 2. The autofocus is not the best, however, is still his duty, unfortunately, how jpeg are not those of the sisters, but present a much lesser degree, the problem I feel little, as always shooting in raw, but sometimes they do definitely comodo.rnL'assenza Viewfinder I have not included among the other hand, since it is a peculiarity and tilting the monitor does not feel the mancanza.rnLa advice to all those who want to learn the system Fujifilm without spending a fortune (it located two hundred euro used) or to those who want a comfortable second body from street or always carry.

Pros: Image quality and management, Compactness, Appearance

Cons: The App allows users to transfer images in WiFi, but not remote management, unlike other models Fujifilm.rnManca the viewfinder, sure, but who takes it knows it already ...

Opinion: It 'was my first mirrorless, I would say an excellent entry level that provides superb picture quality using the same sensor present on other X-Series.rnRapporto quality / price exceptional, given the performance of this camera.rnSe mounted with pancake 27mm, its small size allows use discreto.rnDopo pocket and a year of use, where I indulged in different situations, always by hand and with great satisfaction, I sold only to switch to more advanced X T10.

Pros: Dimensions and weight, quality, even at high ISO, tilting LCD, price (used by then!)

Cons: Delicate (maybe it's just a feeling), creative filters only program dedicated autofocus just enough (from September 2015 you can do the update!), Lack of viewfinder.

Opinion: I bought it used from Silver58, was as new color Quoio with its 16-50 kit, a positive surprise, I did not believe that with 300 € you could find a toy like this! RnSicuramente not a machine sports photo or birds but it is the ideal object to bring always behind! RNLA quality, even with the optics of the kit, it is already excellent, dynamic range and good seal is satisfactory up to 6400 ISO, up to 1600 is crazy! rnCome other sisters that use the same sensor and processor! rnCi takes patience, delicacy and once you get used to the ergonomics Lilliputian. rnHo immediately bought for about 35,00euro lens adapter for Pentax k with 50 1/7 in MF are masterpieces, allowing patience. For manual focus it has an attractive and effective system for confirming! RnNon may be the main machine but it's definitely a nice toy to have for any occasion

Pros: Small size, complete command, quality 'image.

Cons: Unreactive in all situations, lack of viewfinder.

Opinion: I enjoyed the pleasure of use of this camera, now that I think of being able to talk about it replaced with serenity ', but first things ordine.rnAffascinato and intrigued by the world mirrorless I decide to see if everything' that is said about these cameras matches in truth, after scouring the various forums looking for informed opinions, having a tight budget, but wanting to absolutely try the X-Trans sensor I decide to purchase entry level home fuji, the beautiful X-M1.rnHo He had the car in his hands for six months and can confirm what already 'exposed by other reviewers who have preceded me, that quality' remarkable picture (and now I'm testing my new camera I have to say that in terms of quality ' image not see significant differences), resistance to high iso truly exceptional (I have often noticed only by reading the Exif data of the downloaded files), positioning of the controls improved, but already very good, jpg already ready in camera.rnL '; Optical kit, the goal XF 16-50 is not a lightning war, but it is definitely decent and still allows you to bring home always good scatti.rnIl focusing system is not yet up to the best SLR, but is definitely good for pictures taken without haste, at first I had to throw a lot of pictures to blur, but I think that what 'is part of the natural study of a camera, I add that after some months of use I'd learned to chase the subject with discreet successo.rnTutto well then, you say ..... then why you replaced? rnAvendo had in years more 'cameras type bridge I thought accustomed to the use of the display back to compose the various poses so I thought that the lack of viewfinder was painless, in favor of this choice I must say that the viewfinder tilting the X-M1 is beautiful, large, bright and comfortable assolutamete in many situations, but despite my efforts are absolutely not able to handle it (maybe too many information?), So in the end I decided to replace it with a camera with viewfinder evf.rnConcludendo seems to me that the definition of the entry level machine, you can 'refer exclusively to market positioning, not the general quality of the product, that the feeling Plastic that some reviewers have had is acceptable, but we must not forget what is the cost of this camera, which in my opinion is to be awarded for its good overall performance .rnUna small addition, but I think important, the files generated from the sensor are very rich in information, in order to obtain these results, the Fuji has embarked on the path of a switch without filter bayer and innovative with a matrix, and for this reason that the main programs of post-production initially had some difficulties in correctly demosaicizzare the raw products in the room, there are several open discussions in the forum on this topic. Wanting to share my experience I can say that for the capacity evaluation of an average user, which I believe, the workflow of themghtroom 5.7 produces good results (I update the post 08.05.15 saying that with lightroom 6.1.1 has made a further step forward for a good file processing raf).

Pros: Small, light, beautiful, bright screen visible even in the sun, commands well positioned to machine well other claims ... Sensor amazing.

Cons: Missing the viewfinder

Opinion: My first Fuji grip to test the sensor and the world for that Fuji actual belief in fact I have already sold everything including the 35 1.4 but this did not prevent me to make me an idea well precisa.rnPartiamo coil say that the car is too bellla and this is a defect that causes difficulties wanting to photograph secretly with the car to the shoulder strap using the screen. Women are magnetically attracted (not by me of course) and get curious thing that makes you sgam immediately in the event of a session stelt street. The controls are positioned as classic Fuji being able to have everything at hand. The car iso works fine and can be set using the maximum iso ile as for the times. I was amazed by the sensor. It was the first experience with the xtrans but it's crazy to crop to crop to crop in 3200 and did not see grana.rnPresa with 35 1.4 the couple does not seem too much to reward the lens that rivedrei willingly with the pro or the x-1 ( if it were to continue the love story ....) or maybe I was not able to use it efficiently. rnConsigliata to those who can dounless the viewfinder, no action photography also studying well with af you can pull out something interesting.

Pros: Image quality, good autofocus, made at high ISO.

Cons: too much cheap plastic, autofocus moving

Opinion: Having already two Nikon bodies with relative optical I was tired of always take me behind the backpack, I wanted to buy a mirrorless to take with me and the family walks without giving up a good photo quality. After reading several reviews on the web and after 2 Conticini in your pocket, I opted for this x-m1 and I must say that it is not regretted the choice. I was torn between this and a6000 sony x-m1 and eventually won the day's little fujifilm for higher quality at high ISO. In fact I had never seen such quality in a sensor aps-c, and I was stunned. But the thing that made me most pleasure was the precision of 'autofocus. I was very concerned about this aspect because I read a lot of negative things and instead I have to say that the autofocus is quite accurate and fast to be a mirrorless. It 's true, if you have to chase a subject then forget it, is not a suitable job for this mirrorless, surely it would be more suitable for sony a6000 because of his sistemAF to more advanced, but for landscape photos, portrait, street, macro and still life is just fine. Practically suitable for anything but a sports photos and tracking in general, a better AF SLR with the latest generation of these genres. For the rest I took good quality pictures at 6400 ISO, this says a lot about the quality of the sensor. The menu I find it quite intuitive and complete. Some function button more would not hurt, but this body is an entry level so it is normal. The tilting LCD is useful with it and I have not felt the need to have a viewfinder. The battery lasts little bit but this is normal because the screen is always lit when the machine is working. Very nice functions Velvia Provia Sensia etc. that mimic the various films fujifilm. One thing that I do not like at all is the cheap plastic that covers the camera body and the rear ring, instead the vintage design is beautiful and very cool! In conclusion I think this will give me many fujisatisfactions, certainly more than I'll wait!

Pros: Excellent performance at high ISO, tilting the screen (not having the viewfinder is perfect), menu easy to read, high performance for JPEG (which is what counts), AF very precise and in my opinion not too slow.

Cons: Ergonomics, mostly because I solved and its small but excellent buying his grip dedicated.

Opinion: I took it just to have a small quality machine to take with me and I think I have already trovata.rnAvendo a reflex I took the baby home Fuji because I did not need the flagship, the end use exclusively the xm-1 and I decided to sell the SLR kit (which I had not seen anything in particular) also because I need particolari.rnL'unico "defect" that I found I solved the great buying dedicated handle, not cluttered but makes firmer grip well, in my opinion is a must, because even not having a good grip is the viewfinder essenziale.rnL'ho taken with the two lenses in the kit, the 16-50 I think is very good, 16mm are comfortable and do not feel the need to shorter focal also not known any distortion (I am fussy), to top it all with the 50-230, I used it too little for valutarlo.Infine I could not resist and took 27 / 2.8, with the grafted becomes an incredible compactness and quality & agrave; !! rnNon will mirrorless perfect, but for my needs it is scarce and how ...

Pros: The autofocus is accurate if designed for shots and no subjects in constant motion (can not chase children in a playground). It is a robust machine and offers a bright display with function 'sun' in lieu of the viewfinder. Quality and ISO are the highlights of this fuji. The camera also has a function Peak Highlight Focus when shooting in manual, and zoom in to see detail.

Cons: The autofocus is slow moving and hardly engages the subject. The supplied lens is of good quality but not light for its focal length. I have observed a certain slowness in saving shots.

Opinion: Fuji to enter the world with interchangeable lenses is a good choice. I recommend to buy it without a 35 mm optic and go with it or alternatively zooming higher level. Sometimes I miss the viewfinder, because this allows you to better isolate and concentrate on the shoot. I had no choice with the display because taking pictures through the viewfinder after a while 'I suffered from tearing. The quality at high ISO makes the picture even more interesting because it holds up very well.

Pros: If accurate autofocus locks, but not fast. Great resistance to iso up to 6400, but in some cases even beyond. Picture quality very good, to be compared to an SLR. Great support bright. Good maneuverability in the menu.

Cons: Slow machine in most situations, ignition, auto-focus, change menus, data logging, but only when compared to a DSLR, mirrorless as is the average of the other Fuji. It produces a lot of photos to be deleted for the blur and blur. You have to use it for static photograph. (I'm comparing to the X100S and 70D). In RAW, with the Fuji program can intervene and just not intuitive, stealing time. The fragility of the display.

Opinion: Compared to the mirrorless camera is a high level even if economic, but if you compare it to a DSLR like the 70D there is no rivalry, taking part in the iso. Compared to an SLR holds its own just for static shots and photography designed, the sensor is of the highest quality, so the quality dell'immagine.rnL'autofocus is accurate, but not fast and not always able to focus on the first try. The resistance to ISO is amazing (better than X100S and 70D), the pictures are also good to 12000. On the field, in street photography you have to put the iso automated, otherwise the time is always low and you risk the smooth, the good results in the landscape. I think it's a good car, if used for photo stops. It's worth it for its low price and the high quality of the image produce.rn

Pros: Excellent photo quality. Display bright, crisp and tilt (perfect on the stand), can be used as a viewfinder giant, along with an enlarger for LCD (eg 2.8xo 3x). The Flash is more than enough, for both internal and external. Good customization and menus.

Cons: I'd appreciate a button function in most (even two). The skeleton is made of magnesium balance with the optics, but not with the tripod coupling, connected with 4 small screws to outer frame made of plastic. The ergonomics of the controls can be improved and the grip is too low, if you are using heavy lenses (a grip is a must).

Opinion: I am very happy with the XM1, the use (for now) only with manual lenses (all brands, given the draw of less than 18mm), often in auto mode (A) and evaluation matrix, then simply turn the thumb nut correction to find the desired exposure (a method much faster and more accurate than other manual adjustments). The auto white balance, you can pre-adjust to suit your taste, sometimes wrong shade (not by much). The ideal match to save space, it is with fixed lenses like the 27mm or 23mm (bigger, but with better quality).

Pros: lightness, simplicity of the menu. excellent construction and speed of use, clear and bright display.

Cons: MAF in macro mode too far from the subject. rnunica flaw, the lens bundle that is significantly lower than the 18-55 sold with the X-E1.

Opinion: I had all the Sony Nex-excluding Nex-7.rnquando I tried the Fuji X-E1 is jaw dropping and I have quickly become addicted.rnquesta Fuji-X-M1 is a miniature X-E1: same sensor and the same controls, although willing diversamente.rndalla has its extreme compactness and the beauty of the display articulated that does not regret mirino.rnper those who have already Fujinon lenses of the X series, I suggest you buy it only because the lens body kit is really poor . rnvorrei much that Fuji did a zoom pancake like that of Nex-6. would be the perfect complement to this body.
