One thing that is a nice feature is the electronic viewfinder (EVF).

I understand the camera comes with wifi to connect to your phone, and this is a great feature I must say

My initial impressions, very disappointed as you can imagine, receiving a defective new 1900 USD camera (body+35mm) plus the following issues (known or not):The D-pad is bad!, small, too difficult to press, no tactile feedback when pressing, and the front/back dials are also difficult to feel, to find and to move... as most buttons really (contrary to the dials)

And the camera has some great features (I liked all of the controls).

The auto mode on the X-T10 seems like a nice feature, perhaps added because of feedback on this camera

The build is rock solid and the switches are very tight and are not likely to be mistakenly moved

Read review to find out why.3/11/2014Build:Very solid build

The "look" settings have matches for all the Fuji films -- which are the only ones easily available nowadays anyway -- as well as B/W with auto Y, R, G filters and sepia

Solid build, excellent viewfinder, responsive manual controls, very good image quality, etc.

Pros:+ Very nice build quality, Magnesium alloy shell feels solid

With the digital split image focus assist option enabled, a small second screen is displayed within the EVF, which displays the selected focus point under magnification for accurate focus checking

This camera is amazing, it's easy to use, produces great images and is compact enough to carry even with the 18-55.

You can get a very fast lens (f1.4 or even better) that performs amazingly, even very strong to the edge of the image wide open and for a reasonable price.+ This camera produces wonderfully sharp images.

On my Minolta, stopping down the aperture gives an unusably dark image: score one for mirrorless versus TTL (through the lens).

Shame on Fuji for poor quality control and for rushing the release of the camera

But IQ and Lens quality in such a small package is very hard to beat

Slower focus, lessor color depth, slower shooting ability, poorer build quality, and the list goes onNow having said that I sold ALL my camera gear off in the anticipation of this camera and lens system

Solid build, excellent viewfinder, responsive manual controls, very good image quality, etc.

I think it's just enough.-- Overall, great image quality

The electronic viewfinder is beautiful and works great.

The electronic viewfinder works so well that you can use it to get a quick estimate on your exposure -- sort of

Dumb I

I love the organic BW on this camera and the viewfinder is amazing

The image quality is fantastic, the camera is far more compact than my Nikon DSLR's, and the electronic viewfinder is amazing.

Once Fuji irons out all the early model hardware issues, I will absolutely order this again and give it Five Stars

overall - Fuji has been releasing some lovely lenses to complement their camera bodies

I have never had a fuji before but after my experiences with my Fuji camera (graphite XT1) and their amazing Fuji lenses, I will always have one!

On whole, the Fuji X-T1 is one heck of a camera - probably the best mirrorless camera to date

These lenses are so good that even when I shoot with my cheap-o X-A1 entry level Fuji camera, the results can be extraordinary

(I'm waiting on prime lens)The auto focus is FAST, the lens (18-55 kit) is solid and smooth with very good image quality

The auto focus is blazingly fast, and the "kit" lens that it came with puts the competition to shame

nice for trip/ very much doing the job of a DSLR without the weight and bulky lens.

Bad continuous focus, one of the announced improvements, at least with the 35mm f/1.4 with latest firmware 3.10 (I believe that the lens is to blame in this issue): To give an idea, I made a test in an ideal and easy focusing situation: Camera mounted on a tripod set on continuous focus on a static/contrasty object with everything on the same plane (a wall with dark/light paintings) on daylight an easy focusing subject the focus is always moving back and forth, it never stops

I want and is lightweight but have a fast lens, even a fixed fast lens

- Great (well small cover it a bit flimsy but not bad).Image color

The entire Fujifilm line of cameras, as well as the Fujinon lenses (yes, the cameras are called "FujiFILM" even though most Fuji cameras do not use film, and the lenses are called "FujiNON;" the entire imaging division is a part of the larger company, Fuji Heavy Industries) seem simply to rack up one stellar review after another, and this ranges all the way from the entry level X-A1 camera (which knocks out some superlative photos in spite of being a cheap-o camera with a cheap-o kit lens) all the way to XPro1 and X-T1 models, which are much more expensive, and aimed at a different audience

The colors are great and the it's so light that I always have it with

The manual focus options are really great; one can use a centered 'rangefinder' type patch, focus peaking (with different intensities and colors available) or the very cool side-by-side view with the second image being the magnified area of focus

Firmware helped, but the EVF was still - well, irritating to use at times

Although the Nikkors i've used with my adapter (above) work quite well in many situations, some of the strengths of the great EVF are also a weakness in this regard

*absolutely* appreciate the camera and understand the appeal of it, but I could never love the EVF

The EVF is quite fun to look at, but I often find myself using the LCD screen more

(Also: why is the upper auto-ISO value only 6400 when the camera supports 2 stops more on the ISO-Hi setting?)So after a few thousand exposures and weeks of use, because of the computer that I cannot control, the slow uncertain AF, and the EVF that will not show me what is actually there (as opposed to its processed version of what's there

Amazing camera, amazing manual controls and amazingly small without being too small

manual controls are awsome, Focus is fast with lots of great manual focus tools so you can use your old cameras manual focus lenses

My Canon USM/STM lenses had the ability to instantly override AF, but it was hard to achieve good critical focus using the OVF with large apertures

Having the lens hood on in storage position makes using the manual focus ring impossible

Will this do all of the 3-D focus tracking like the D7100 will?

As a bonus, I can use my Minolta lenses with an adapter (in MF mode) and they are just as sharp as they were on my DSLR.Well done Fuji.

The Dynamic Range on the camera is not the greatest as I shoot RAW and post

and I believe the XT-1 is as close as I can get to a mirrorless camera that is even close to the M9.Important features for me: having the portability of a light camera, access to a majority of the manual controls at my fingertips without having to navigate a menu, possibility of changing lenses, and as large a sensor as I can afford

Sony and Olympus both make fantastic gear, i love all brands, my raving about the XT-1 should not be viewed as an attack on these fantastic cameras, to be honest though, I have yet to hold a mirrorless camera from ANY brand that feels as good as

Nice EVF and EVF optionsCON:- Build quality feels suspect compared to OM-D- Apart from manual dials, handling

There is NO percieveable lag in the viewfinder, I would suspect the lag is insignificant compared to the average persons response time

Autofocus seems to "chatter" just slightly before locking in, as compared to Nikon's autofocus which seems to jump directly to the focus point.(3

It seem that Kaisen in this case was castrating the camera and then release firmware upgrades to un-castrate it... at least after (almost) one year of releasing the camera it will work as it should (which is best than other manufacturers)

Additional;I strongly recommend the use of a protective lens filter or UV filter (I've used the B+W 58mm XS-Pro Clear UV Haze with Multi-Resistant Nano Coating) and an LCD screen protector to save the the screen from scratches--I've used the ExpertShield available on AMZ for about $11Overall: very happy with the fujifilm camera despite the minor incident.

The "look" settings have matches for all the Fuji films -- which are the only ones easily available nowadays anyway -- as well as B/W with auto Y, R, G filters and sepia

So in the viewfinder my subjects are dark and I can't see their expressions.

I recently bought and used the X-T1 for two major trips comprising around 4000 shots of mostly static subjects

this continues to be my favorite APC-S camera of all I have bought recently and will remain in my collection.

You do lose a little shallow DOF (not enough of a difference for it to mean much to me)

These lenses are so good that even when I shoot with my cheap-o X-A1 entry level Fuji camera, the results can be extraordinary

(it reaches focus, then GOES OUT OF FOCUS, then back again), so to have a picture in focus you should pray to the odds and it will probably be 1/3 of the times in focus, 1/3 back focus and 1/3 front focus if you are using a wide aperture and shallow DOF

even though the rolling shutter effect for fast moving objects
