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

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

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)

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

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

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

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

Dumb I

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

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

I love the size of the camera and the images it produces.

I can't tell you how many images I missed because of this shot-to-shot delay

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

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

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

The performance was great and the build quality is amazing

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

The electronic viewfinder is beautiful and works great.

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

I like to set NR to -1, and Sharpness to +1.The Electronic View Finder (EVF)is large, and gives you a view that rivals an optical viewfinder...except it provides way more information.

Dumb I

The Fuji even has split image focus magnification, but my problem was that all of this is distracting more than it is useful

and of course the fantastic Fuji lenses make up the other half

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

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

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!

I got the camera with the 18-55 kit lens, and it is an amazing lens

but it was still surprisingly heavy with the smallish zoom lens that was with it.

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

For now, I'd rather have a fast lens than a better flash unit

I also do not recommend the pancake lens I originally bought, it has chromatic abberation.

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

It simply takes amazing pictures with great colors and it does that with default auto!

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

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

While this is by far the best EVF I've used (bright, clear, sharp), and it does have some real advantages over an optical viewfinder, the EVF image lag is substantial when used in low light, so you better have spider-like reflexes bordering on premonition if you want to actually catch a moment in low light

The EVF is outstanding - bright and clear, and a joy to use - I don't miss an OVF with this camera.

Now I count the EVF as an asset, though it's not perfect

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

I like manual control and find the dials on this camera very easy to understand and use.

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

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

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

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

I purchased a Rokinon 12mm F2.0, a fully manual lens, shortly after and the Fuji makes it so simple to use with the excellent manual focus assist

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)

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.

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

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

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

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)

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

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

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

The built-in RAW conversion is good (as there is still no Lightroom support, and the support for X-Trans sensors of previous Fuji X cameras is worst than other software).The X-T1 could have been an amazing camera... but it has so many silly issues, luckily most are prone to be fixed with firmware upgrades (I hope Kaisen spirit is true), if they fix the remote app it will do it for me regarding to the light leak, since I could use that for long exposure and won't need to use gaffer tape or other nonsense on a new product!Sorry to the Fuji fans for my "negative and sincere review", but I really want Fuji to fix these

This firmware update provides significant new features, cleans up a few issues, and is an essential update

Haven't tested ISOs higher than 1600, but noise is not a huge issue

The Kit lens is fast at AF, no issues even in very dark scenes

The higher limit is not much an issue honestly since I hardly go over 3200.

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

(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

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