Pros: Inexpensive - second hand, with 18-55 lens, only EUR 500 (2018).

Cons: Battery life only 150-200 shots. Very time consuming to set up and shoot. Kit lens 18-55 useless for any 'close up' work. Impossible to set the camera from full manual to full auto in less than one minute.

Opinion: I bought this camera to step up from our older Nikon P7800 (a compact camera). I could afford an X-T2 but wanted to test something similar from Fuji before spending big money on the camera to use for my future work. After one month shooting these two cameras side by side I still get better images from our Nikon compact. I have seen some great images taken with X-T1 on many websites but now I am sure these images have been very seriously processed. So if you want to spend your life playing with Photoshop, this is the camera to get. I will still keep it and learn more and maybe I will be happier with it in the long run. But I may as well say good bye to Fuji and to any other mirrorless camera. Today top shelf compacts with large sensors are far easier to shoot and give equally good images. Edit late September 2018: After a lot and lot of trial and error - now I can get the camera to outperform much older much cheaper Nikon compact. Image quality is clearly MUCH BETTER than I assumed earlier. It just takes so much time to get used to all the too many dials, switches and buttons. This camera is completely NOT like any real retro camera I used to own (e.g. an Olympus OM-1, among many others.) I also found that the AF system is only good with some newer lenses (like the kit zoom) but it is absolutely abysmal with some R lenses (e.g. 35 1.4R). I am yet to find if this is because of the lens or because of the camera. I will report as I test more. Corresponding lenses are easily 100% more expensive than comparable Canon or Nikon lenses. They are very difficult to re-sell when you upgrade your kit.

Pros: Quality, feel, controls, size, lenses, versatility, image quality with jpeg right from camera,

Cons: Battery life.

Opinion: I have had this camera for about six months and am amazed at the quality. The image quality is fantastic when I do my part. I love the control dials as opposed to the menu system of other cameras. This camera is better than my Leica system in every aspect. This camera allows you to think and to control every aspect of a shot very intuitively. Build quality is superb. The 18-55 mm 2.8-4 zoom is fantastic and is definitely not a kit lens. The other lenses I have are equally excellent. This is like having all the benefits of an old time camera with the latest technology. I love this machine. I also like the firmware updates. Fuji really supports their customers.

Pros: Viewfinder, fairly simple menu, film simulations, jpg quality

Cons: ergonomics, battery life,

Opinion: I've really taken it for a few days but I like to write a "hot" opinion about the new toy. What I imagined in the crosshairs was respected: it's really nice big, maybe not really defined but it's a really nice sight. For the moment I am using it in manual with vintage lenses and having focus peaking is a salvation... on the contrary, there is also the focus with a broken image, but I must learn to use it well; in fact I can manage it easily only with very open diaphragms. I also knew about the goodness of jpg files and so it was. If you expose yourself properly, meticulously, the file is almost 100% ready making the use of heavy RAW vain. Like so many mirrorless it has various buttons that you can set at will to make it even more enjoyable in use. The ergonomics can be improved, I took the grip to have more grip with my fingers and avoid unintentionally pressing with the index finger the button on the front. I would have preferred the keys a little more embossed instead they are flush body and not very fast to activate. Accustomed to the Olympus menu which was really articulated with so many voices, this is quite simple and fast... sigma sd4 type. Battery really scarce but with a few euros you take 2 and you are quiet. I haven't tried the af, for now I'm shooting with vintage lenses... but in any case I didn't need a lightning bolt.

Pros: Rings, sensor yield, construction, film simulations, viewfinder... still in 2021 makes very good.

Cons: AF in low light, not really long-lived batteries, cladding dinghy that over time may come off.

Opinion: Still in 2021 he can calmly say his own. It is an excellent machine, very pleasant to use, solid and compact. Even though I have big hands, ergonomics doesn't suffer, and it falls into my hand very well. Honorable mention to the rings, only the noise produced while rotating them deserves purchase. The AF is very usable and quite precise, but in conditions of low light or important contrast it suffers a little. AFC just enough, does its job. Note of merit for the viewfinder, always fluid and quite faithful to real colors, with a little lag exclusively in extended dynamic range mode. The sensor is really great, it returns beautiful images with beautiful shades of color, but do not ask him crop because with 16 MP they are not feasible, if not very small. Excellent jpeg as per fuji tradition, with the possibility to make changes directly in the room, with interesting and certainly comfortable results for those who do not want to spend hours working on the PC and for those who want to immediately share the shot taken. Nonetheless, raw is very workable, especially with capture one express which for fuji is free. Rendered at high ISO interesting, the grain over 1600 is there, but only over 4000 becomes clearly visible, while maintaining a very, very "retro" look that does not mind at all (I also shot at 12800 and 25600 without hesitation). Batteries do what they can, which is generally no more than 350 shots. Dinghy with time tend to come off, especially in the corner under directional arrows, a known but annoying defect. To sum up, it is an excellent machine in many respects, it can still say its own, it makes it very well both with proprietary optics and with viltrox, and does not make you regret the FF, both in terms of yield and in terms of maintenance costs, and in terms of size. If undecided, take it, you find business to date, and among other things it is also easily resaleable.

Pros: Quality of jpgs, rings, vintage aesthetics.

Cons: For my hands a little too small, AF can be improved

Opinion: I start from the fact that I really like Fuji's vintage aesthetic. The fact that I have the rings for all the fundamental parameters for me is a great convenience. The less I get on the menu, the better. Film simulations are very interesting. The grain of the photos has something reminiscent of the film, something that when you see a hole taken with a fuji recognize it, has the trademark. This vintage style in both hardware and software marries my taste and I really like to see how it goes with advanced technology instead. I also appreciate the Fuji updates, sometimes really significant (see for example speed of the electronic bull optics brought up to 1/32,000 allowing you to shoot with very bright targets such as my 56 1.2 even in full sun). We are now at XT4 but I really struggle to think about replacing but my XT1. I feel very good in terms of balancing with the battery grip but I have very large hands. However go trekking and carry with you such a light tool but with such high quality it is really priceless. I think the natural matching of this machine is with fuji fixes. I have the 35 1:4 and the 56 1:2 and really the Quality of the files is remarkable, it makes you fall in love! I sold My Nikon kit to lighten up with a bit of fear but I would never go back especially I who love the ready-made Jpg of the xt1.
