Fujifilm: Camera, Instax Mini, & Lens

Holding a Fujifilm camera is not just a way to take photos, it’s a window into the images your eyes see wherever you are. This lineup has something for all levels of photography expertise, proving that a camera is something everybody can get behind.

Fujifilm mirrorless cameras

Fujifilm has a storied history going back to the emergence of film cameras, and in the current era of digital photography, it offers the tools to make shooting images exciting. Mirrorless cameras carry many of the benefits of DSLRs, only without the extra size and weight.

Learn the ropes with full automatic modes, or take more control over how you capture the world around you by diving into the manual settings. Fujifilm’s mirrorless cameras are laden with features that can make any photographer comfortable. Larger CMOS image sensors help take in more light, improving low-light photo quality, or freezing fast action when shooting a burst.

Face and eye detection ensure you never leave a person out of focus when keeping them in the frame. Film simulation modes bring back some of the nostalgia and artistry that characterized photos in bygone eras. Switch between them whenever the mood strikes to give your photos a different look that will make you look like a pro.

Mirrorless cameras also don’t limit you to still photos because you can also shoot video in high-quality 4K or 1080p HD resolution. Fujifilm’s X-mount lenses are compatible with X-series mirrorless cameras, providing extra flexibility when you need a little more perspective to your images.

Fujifilm Instax cameras

Not all photos have to be digital where an Instax camera is concerned. These colourful cameras don’t just stand out for their unique design, they can capture a memory and make it permanent right on the spot. With a retro twist, photos develop and pop out on film for a dazzling finish to a great moment.

Instax cameras are built with simplicity in mind, but not only for simple photos. With various modes to choose from, photos can turn out looking different each time. There’s plenty of room to experiment while rocking one of these cameras at any event or vacation. A built-in selfie mirror affords you the chance to turn the camera around and capture yourself or a group.

Fujifilm’s Instax Mini Instant film is credit card-sized and easy to replace when you need to put in a new stack. No need to recharge when you have extra AA batteries handy, and no need to worry about losing the handle with the trusty wrist strap.

Fujifilm point and shoot cameras

Water, sand and dust won’t stop Fujifilm Finepix point and shoot cameras from snapping photos. These pocket-sized shooters are rugged by design, with waterproof, freezeproof and shockproof bodies that let them take a beating without missing a shot.

You still get optical zoom and built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to transfer photos over to an Instax Share Printer or mobile device. A wide range of modes and features keep these ruggedized Finepix cameras active and versatile for any adventure you set your sights on.

Best Fujifilm cameras to buy in 2023

These are the best Fujifilm cameras to buy right now, including X-mount mirrorless cameras, GFX medium format, and the legendary Fujifilm X100V.

Fujifilm has really raised the bar for its mirrorless camera range, introducing the first-ever 40MP APS-C sensor in the Fujifilm X-T5 and X-h3, and producing an ultra-high-speed sports/hybrid camera in the form of the Fujifilm X-h3S. In 2023, Fujifilm still offers some of the most unique and characterful systems in all of photography. Its retro-styled X-series mirrorless and compact cameras blend the best of old and new, pairing cutting-edge imaging sensors with dial-based controls that hearken back to the days of film SLRs. And Fujifilm is also taking on the world of high-quality, large-sensor photography, with its ground-breaking GFX mirrorless medium format cameras.

There are signs, though, that it’s starting to favor more mainstream enthusiast/professional cameras ahead of the retro designs that made its name, so if you want to get an X-T30 II, for example, you’d better be quick, and the lovely little X-E4 is now proving pretty hard to get.

Whether you’re a beginner, a seasoned enthusiast or a professional, Fujifilm cameras offer a characterful and powerful alternative, and the best Fujifilm lenses are outstanding too, full of bokeh-tastic character. Fujifilm has a reputation for being one of the most fun camera brands to use – with high-quality JPEGs that require little-to-no editing, and Film Simulation modes that emulate the looks of classic film stocks.

In case you’re not too experienced with Fujifilm cameras, before we get to the list, we’ll quickly run through the key categories and features we’ll be dealing with in this guide…

How to choose the best Fujifilm camera

Here are the key specs it’ll help to think about when shopping for a Fujifilm camera.

Mirrorless, compact or medium format? Fujifilm cameras come in three categories. The most well-populated is the X-mount mirrorless range, all of which use APS-C X-Trans sensors and accept X-mount lenses. Fujifilm also makes compact cameras with fixed lenses, though there is currently only one model in production – the hugely popular Fujifilm X100V, which also uses an APS-C X-Trans sensor.

The other option is to go large-sensor with Fujifilm’s GFX range of medium format cameras. This series has wildly redefined what medium format cameras can look like, including models that are much faster, cheaper (relatively) and more portable than previously seen. We’ve included every currently available model from all three categories in this guide, so you have plenty to pick from.

Resolution: Fujifilm has been upping its resolution game recently. For years, its X-series cameras resolutely stuck to the 26.1MP X-Trans sensor design. However, the arrival of the X-T5 and the X-h3 in 2022 changed everything, as both cameras sport a hefty 40MP of resolution, providing much more detail in images, at the cost of larger files. Of course, if this isn’t enough for you, the medium format GFX cameras run up to 100MP.

Build and handling: Some Fujifilm cameras are built more ruggedly than others, and if you need weatherproofing for outdoor shooting, you’ll want to be careful which you buy. For instance, while the X-T cameras are generally weatherproof, the beginner-friendly X-S10 and its successor the X-S20 are not. The good news though is that handling is consistently very good across all Fujifilm cameras, with dial-led controls and good viewfinders.

Shooting speed and autofocus: Fujifilm’s shooting speeds are generally very good, and further improved when the X-h3S came along in 2022. Its stacked sensor design enables super-fast shooting speeds of up to 40fps with the electronic shutter, and it also has AI-powered subject-detect autofocus that’s capable of keeping up. AI subject detection now appears in the X-S20, too.

in-body image stabilisation. In-body image stabilisation (IBIS) is a common feature on Fujifilm cameras, and can be hugely useful both for video and for shooting at slow shutter speeds in low light. Older models like the X-T30 II don’t have it, while newer cameras like the X-S20 do. However, a fair few Fuji X-mount lenses have built-in optical stabilisation anyway, so this may not be a deal-breaker.

Best Fujifilm camera overall: Fujifilm X-T5

In use, the Fujifilm X-T5’s viewfinder is large, bright and clear. Image credit: Andy Westlake

At a glance:

• Mirrorless X-mount camera
• 40.2MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor
• ISO 125-12,800 (ISO 64-51,200 extended)
• 15fps continuous shooting (mechanical shutter)
• Price: $1,699 / £1,699 body only

Long-awaited, much-appreciated – the Fujifilm X-T5 is the best Fujifilm camera for photographers, and probably the best camera that Fujifilm has ever made. Earning a full five stars in our review, this fabulous mirrorless cameras gets a considerable resolution bump compared to the X-T4, leaping all the way up to 40MP. It’s also smaller than the X-T4, and much more similar in size to the original X-T1.

What’s more, it also receives the must-have feature of cameras that have come out over the past year – subject-detect autofocus, an AI-powered system that can pick out particular subjects like humans or animals and lock the focus onto them with unerring accuracy.

Cheaper than the X-h3, the X-T5 actually provides remarkable value for money once you dig into what you get. A broad ISO sensitivity range, a comprehensive autofocus system and a bangingly fast burst rate (15fps with the mechanical shutter or 20fps with the electronic shutter and 1.29x crop) – it all adds up to a camera that’s pretty much good at everything. For the same price as an old, under-specced full-frame camera, the Fujifilm X-T5 gives you bags of functionality.

While the X-T5 shoots excellent video, in 6K no less, it isn’t really a video-focused camera, and something like the X-h3 will give video users more bang for their buck. However, it’s a fabulous all-round camera, a fine achievement by Fujifilm, and a compelling argument that full-frame really isn’t everything.

What we like:

• Gorgeous, high-resolution image quality
• Tough and weather-sealed
• Classic analogue-style controls

What we don’t like:

• Not everyone needs 40MP
• Small buffer when shooting full-res RAW

Best for: stills shooters who want to do a bit of everything

Best Fujifilm for beginners and DSLR users: Fujifilm X-S20

Fujifilm X-S20

At a glance:

• Mirrorless X mount camera
• 26.1MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor
• ISO 160-12800 (80-51200 extended)
• 5-axis in-body stabilisation
• Price: $1299 / £1249 body only

The original Fujifilm X-S10 was a significant departure for Fujifilm, packing much of the technology from the then-flagship X-T4 into a far more compact body with more mainstream controls, notably a regular mode dial rather than a shutter speed/ISO dial. The Fujifilm X-S20 builds on this with a whole series of advances that make it well worth the extra outlay (around $300/£300 more at current prices).

On the face of it, not much has changed, as you still get a 26MP sensor and an almost identical body design. However, a faster processor delivers vastly increased buffer depth for continuous shooting, also thanks to a UHS-II compatible card slot, new AI-driven autofocus brings automatic subject recognition and tracking, and the video capabilities get a huge boost, with 4K 60p recording, ‘open gate’ 3:2 6K video, internal 4:2:2 recording and 12-bit raw via HDMI – there’s also a headphone socket now, and a bigger battery with greatly extended shooting times.

If you’re mainly interested in stills, the X-S20 may not offer enough of an improvement to make it worth the extra over the X-S10, but for video or hybrid shooters it’s a major upgrade. It might look like an expensive beginners camera, but it’s actually an extremely powerful hybrid tool at a ‘beginner’ price.

The body isn’t weather-sealed, but its light weight and compact size makes the X-S20 ideal for travel photography, vlogging and other tasks where portability is key. A great all-rounder, and the perfect entry point to mirrorless cameras.

What we like:

• Lightweight build
• Exceptional video specifications at this price
• Bigger battery

What we don’t like:

• No weather seals
• No resolution increase – still 26MP

Best for: DSLR upgraders who don’t want full frame

Best Fujifilm for landscapes: Fujifilm X-h3

Fujifilm X-h3 with Fujinon XF 56mm f1. 2 R WR lens, Joshua Waller

At a glance:

• Mirrorless X-mount camera
• 40MP APS-C BSI X-Trans sensor
• ISO 125-12,800 (ISO 64-51,200 extended)
• Up to 20fps shooting (with 1.29x crop), 15fps uncropped
• Price: $1,999 / £1,879 body only

The Fujifilm X-h3 is among the highest-resolution X-mount models yet, boasting 40MP for its users to play with. It functions somewhat as a counterpoint to the X-h3S (which we’ll meet below), and whereas that camera is focused on speed, this one prioritises detail. As such, it is an excellent choice for landscape shooters, studio portrait photographers, astrophotographers, and really anyone who wants to capture stunning, high-resolution images of their subject.

This is not to say that the X-h3 is a slow camera – far from it. The camera can burst shoot at up to 20fps with a crop, or 15fps at full resolution, and its fastest shutter speed is a record-setting 1/180,000sec. Just bear in mind that this is an electronic shutter, not a mechanical, so it does run the risk of introducing image artefacts like banding or rolling shutter distortion.

You also get the options of 160MP high-res Multi-Shot mode (though this needs to be assembled in software), and 8K video in ProRes or BlackMagic raw. What’s also worth noting is that the X-h3 actually costs less than its speedster sibling, with a price tag of less than $2K / £2K. This makes it a seriously tempting option for landscape enthusiasts.

What we like:

• Superb sensor resolution
• Muscly video spec
• Next-gen autofocus

What we don’t like:

• High-res multi-shot can’t be processed in-camera

Best for: Shooters who prioritise resolution and detail

Best Fujifilm camera for sports and action: Fujifilm X-h3S

At a glance:

• Mirrorless X mount camera
• 26.1MP APS-C stacked BSI CMOS 5 HS sensor
• ISO 160-12800 (80-51200 extended)
• 15fps continuous shooting (mechanical shutter)
• Price: $2,499 / £2,499 body only

Fujifilm’s speedster flagship X-mount camera makes pains to differentiate itself from the company’s other models. Designed to be the premium, ambitious and enthusiast-friendly APS-C model in the range, the Fujifilm X-h3S offers a new stacked version of the 26.1MP sensor, as well as 6K video recording at 30fps (and 4K at up to 120fps), and 15fps continuous shooting (40fps with electronic shutter).

AI-assisted autofocus is able to recognise many subjects by their shape – birds, cars and trains as well as humans and pets. It also supports high-speed CFexpress Type B cards as well as SD, and has the option to add a fan so that overheating doesn’t affect performance, particularly during video capture.

It all adds up to a formidable piece of hardware that should be able to tackle the most demanding photography and video tasks.

What we like:

• Supports CFExpress for speed
• AI-powered autofocus
• Super-fast sensor readout

What we don’t like:

• One of the priciest X-mount cameras

Best for: Premium performance across the board

Best Fujifilm for travel: Fujifilm X-E4

Fujifilm X-E4 in hand with 27mm lens (MT image)

At a glance:

• Mirrorless X mount camera
• 26.1MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor
• ISO 160-12800 (80-51200 extended)
• 8fps continuous shooting (mechanical shutter)
• Price: $849 / £799 or more, body only, used

With the same sensor and processor as both the X-T4 and X-S10, the Fujifilm X-E4 has a lot in common with two significantly pricier stablemates. So why is it rated slightly lower than them in this guide?

For starters, the X-E4 doesn’t have the in-body image stabilisation that gives the other two models a valuable measure of added poise when shooting handheld – likely a result of its smaller body lacking the space for the necessary components. The body shape is more akin to a rangefinder camera than the DSLRs that inspire the X-T4 and X-S10, which means handling and controls aren’t quite so intuitive either (you can buy optional grips to make the X-E4 sit more securely in your hands, but the additional cost pushes it into X-S10 territory).

That said, this is a solid performer for both photo and video capture (it can record 4K at up to 30fps) and feels pleasingly petite when combined with a small, lightweight lens; appropriately, it’s available in a bundle with the tiny XF 27mm F2.8 pancake prime.

Even though this is a fairly recent release, having debuted in 2021, there are signs that the Fujifilm X-E4 hasn’t been much of a success story. Stocks have run dry in the UK with Fujifilm seemingly in no rush to replace them, and it is already listed as discontinued in the US. You may have some luck searching for it on the second-hand market. That’s a shame, because this is a neat, unfussy and very attractive camera.

What we like:

• Pairs well with light lenses
• Stylish rangefinder looks

What we don’t like:

• No stabilisation
• Grip can be awkward

Best for: Inconspicuous street and travel photography

Best budget Fujifilm camera: Fujifilm X-T30 II

Fujifilm X-T30 Mark II Camera Body. Photo credit: Joshua Waller

At a glance:

• Mirrorless X mount camera
• 26.1MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor
• ISO 160-12800 (80-51200 extended)
• 8fps continuous shooting (mechanical shutter)
• Price: $899 / £799 body only

The replacement for the hugely popular X-T30 and yet another camera in the current range that uses the popular 26.1MP X-Trans 4 sensor and X-Processor 4, the Fujifilm X-T30 II is an entry-level model with a lot to offer for its price.

It lacks in-body image stabilisation, while its tilting screen can’t be flipped to face forward, which detracts from its vlogging and selfie-taking potential, but its autofocus system is fast and accurate and image quality is on a par with models that share the same sensor and processor hardware (like the X-E4, X-T4 and X-S10). Video recording options include 4K at 30fps and 1080p at 60fps.

Where the X-S10 and X-S20 have a PASM mode dial in the style of rival manufacturers, the X-T30 II uses Fujifilm’s signature twin-dial setup, with shutter speed and exposure compensation quickly adjustable via two top-mounted dials.This does look to be the last of Fujifilm’s old-school designs, however, at least at the beginner/enthusiast end of the market, so if you want one and you find a retailer that has it in stock, you shouldn’t waste any time.

What we like:

• Speedy, reliable autofocus
• Twin-dial controls

What we don’t like:

• No stabilisation
• Screen can’t face forwards

Best for: Shooters on a strict budget

Best Fujifilm compact camera: Fujifilm X100V

Fujifilm X100V premium compact camera

At a glance:

• Premium compact camera
• 26. 1MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor
• 23mm F2 lens, 35mm equivalent: 35mm
• 11fps continuous shooting (mechanical shutter)
• Price: $1,399 / £1,349 (RRP)

Offering the specifications of a mirrorless camera in a fixed lens compact design, the Fujifilm X100V sports the same 26.1MP APS-C sensor and X-Processor 4 as many of its interchangeable lens stablemates. You can’t remove its 23mm lens but with a fast F2 aperture and excellent optics, it’s a fantastic performer in almost all situations (and you can use Fujifilm’s optional 0.8x and 1.4x conversion lenses to change the focal length to 28mm and 50mm equivalent respectively).

With an 11fps continuous shooting speed (30fps with electronic shutter) it’s quick, and autofocus is swift and accurate to boot; combined with its inconspicuous size (it can fit in a jacket pocket) and easy handling, these traits make it ideal for street photography. It can be equipped with a weather resistant kit too, making it suitable for outdoor snapping all year round. It’s easy to see why this made it into our list of the best compact cameras.

Since late 2022, the Fujifilm X100V has been undergoing something of a demand crunch after a few high-profile TikTok users recommended it as a camera capable of creating ‘film-like’ images. Stock can be tricky to get hold of, and the price has remained pretty high.

If it’s too expensive or hard-to-find for you, check out our list of the best Fujifilm X100V alternatives.

What we like:

• Immensely fun to shoot with
• Sharp fixed lens
• Teleconverters available

What we don’t like:

• Pricey for a compact
• Stock sells out quickly

Best for: Uncomplicated travel and street photography

Best Fujifilm camera with a viewfinder: Fujifilm X-Pro3

In a retro touch, the Fujifilm X-Pro3 can be set to display which Film Simulation mode you’re using. Photo credit: Michael Topham

At a glance:

• Mirrorless X mount camera
• 26.1MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor
• ISO 160-12800 (80-51200 extended)
• 11fps continuous shooting (mechanical shutter)
• Price: $1,549 / £1,499 (body only, used)

With so many cookie cutter cameras in the mirrorless marketplace, there’s certainly room for oddities like the Fujifilm X-Pro3. Rather than a traditional rear screen, the latest edition of the rangefinder-esque X-Pro line has a tiny, low-power 1.28in sub-monitor showing vital shooting info like shutter speed, aperture, ISO and so on. Fold this down on the bottom-mounted hinge and you’ll see a standard 3in LCD touchscreen on the sub-monitor’s reverse.

It’s Fujifilm’s way of encouraging use of the viewfinder for photography, which sounds admirable but adds frustration to the process when you just want to view or change settings from the main or quick menus (the sub-monitor doesn’t let you do this).

If you can live with the quirks, the X-Pro3 is a great performer that forces you to address photography in a different way to other Fujifilm cameras. It won’t appeal to everyone, however, and some people have reported reliability issues with the screen(s).

What we like:

• Clever, unique shooting experience
• Superb image quality

What we don’t like:

• Design introduces some operational awkwardness

Best for: Purists with a penchant for eccentricity

Best Medium Format Fujifilm Cameras

Best value Fujifilm medium format camera: Fujifilm GFX50S II

The Fujifilm GFX50S II is an affordable route into medium-format. Photo credit: Andy Westlake

At a glance:

• Mirrorless G mount camera
• 51.4MP medium format Bayer array sensor
• ISO 50-102,400 (extended)
• 5-axis in-body image stabilisation
• Price: $3,199 / £2,799 body only

Medium format digital photography was once the preserve of the well-heeled, but the Fujifilm GFX50S II makes it more accessible than ever. With its (relatively) affordable price and compact size (it’s similar in bulk to a full-frame DSLR), it’s significantly easier to own and use than the bulky and expensive alternatives from the likes of Hasselblad and Leica.

It’s Fujifilm’s cheapest medium format model too, and consequently falls behind its pricier brethren when it comes to autofocus capabilities, video options and continuous shooting speed. Pair it with a high-quality lens and start taking photos, however, and these niggles feel less weighty. The rich colours, fine detail and wide dynamic range on show are a revelation compared to APS-C and full-frame, and the fact you can achieve them when shooting handheld with such a small body is a huge accessibility advantage.

What’s perhaps most remarkable about the GFX 50S II is that it’s now cheaper than a good many high-end full frame mirrorless cameras, though Fujifilm’s GFX lenses remain quite expensive.

What we like:

• Cheapest GFX model
• Rich, detail-filled images

What we don’t like:

• Slower than other GFX cameras

Best for: Landscape and fine art photography

Best high-resolution medium format: Fujifilm GFX100S

The Fujifilm GFX100S is ideal for making large prints. Photo credit: Andy Westlake

At a glance:

• Mirrorless G mount camera
• 102MP medium format Bayer array sensor
• ISO 50-102,400 (extended)
• 5fps continuous shooting (mechanical shutter)
• Price: $5,499 / £4,799 body only

Another medium format camera in a surprisingly compact and easy-to-handle body, the Fujifilm GFX100S is more expensive than the GFX50S II but ups the pixel count of its huge sensor to a whopping 102MP.

The image quality on offer here is nothing short of astonishing, with vast amounts of detail and dynamic range achievable (even when shooting handheld in less than perfect lighting conditions, thanks to the in-body image stabilisation). It can also record 4K video at 30fps, which puts it above the GFX50S II, which can only manage 1080p recording, despite the 51MP sensor.

The GFX50S II’s affordability means it’s still a better entry-point to larger format photography, but if detail is a priority for you then the GFX100S is definitely worth the extra outlay. It currently costs no more than some high-end full-frame mirrorless cameras we could name, but offers a whole new level of resolution.

What we like:

• Gorgeous, astonishing image quality
• 4K video
• Effective stabilisation

What we don’t like:

• Price inevitably a barrier

Best for: Enthusiast photographers who need the most detail possible

film simulation mode and compatibility with a large number of interchangeable lenses.

24.3MP sensor without low-pass filter is the best in the X-series. Thanks to a high-speed processor, auto focus is able to work almost instantly, regardless of the complexity of textures and composition. Separately, it is worth noting the presence of a special battery pack, thanks to which several batteries can work in Boost mode, increasing the video recording time. So in 4K format, you can record up to about half an hour.

Approx. 1.8 times more data than needed to shoot 4K video (3840×2160) and 2.4 times more data for full HD (1920×1080) is recorded by the camera, providing high quality with low moiré and flare.

The Fujifilm X-T20 is a mid-range mirrorless camera that sits above the X-E2S and below the X-T2. The X-T20 replaces the X-T10 and offers a host of new features, including Fujifilm’s latest 24MP CMOS sensor and image processor, faster continuous shooting, any enhanced autofocus system, 4K video capture, and more. In many ways, it’s the smaller, less expensive “little brother” to the X-T2, a camera that won a gold award when we reviewed it last year.

The X-T20 is in the competitive field of both DSLR and mirrorless cameras. Buyers will likely decide what to do: between mid-range DSLRs like the Nikon D5600 and Canon EOS 77D, and mirrorless models like the Sony a6300, Panasonic GX850 and Olympus E-M5 II.

Benefits

• light weight
• fast focus
• high resolution
• low price

  The X-T100 has a sensor that was previously successfully tested on the Fujifilm X-A5. Its resolution is 24 megapixels, and the light sensitivity level is ISO 200-12800. The difference of this device is a good color filter, ahead of other X-Trans sensors. The “rate of fire” of the model reaches 6 frames per second, and the resolution is 3830×2160 pixels.

  The device operates at a minimum shutter speed of 1/4000 s, and in this indicator it is ahead of models in its price category. The electronic shutter allows you to increase the shutter speed by 8 times. The camera display is very mobile, and the flash range is 5 meters. The battery is enough to take 430 shots. The camera has a lightweight Power Zoom lens. Optical frame stabilization allows you to get high-quality shots “handheld”. Internal focusing allows you not to enlarge the lens when focusing.

  Fujifilm cameras are the best – fact or fiction?

  Thoughts

  Philosophical note dedicated to my reflections on the superiority of the fuji system over others.

  Design elements of Fujifilm

  During the New Year holidays, I had free time, and I decided to expand my horizons by studying the “enemy” system – Micro 4/3 😄 Speaking specifically, I was interested in the Olympus line of cameras and lenses (according to the current OM-Digital).

  To be honest, I liked the Olympus technique in theory. Perhaps you thought that now I will start comparing the two systems. But no. In the context of this article, there will be no such controversy. Everyone has their pros and cons, it’s obvious. But one thought still did not leave me indifferent, and that’s what I would like to bring up for discussion in this post. The bottom line is…

  Many photographers love fuji cameras for their quality, design, twists and feel. It turns out such a kind of fetishism. Others – solely for technical capabilities, motivating this by the fact that competitors do not have such functionality. And at first glance, indeed, Fujifilm has a complete order with all these moments.

  Fujifilm X-T30 and X-E4

  In fact, it seems to me that all this is greatly exaggerated. Moreover, both through the efforts of the company’s marketers and the fans of the system. Take, for example, retro fuji design. There is a lot of hype around him. Of course, this is a matter of taste, but by the way, the Olympus mentioned above also offers an excellent alternative. They have the O-MD line which is similar to the X-T series and the PEN cameras are something similar to the X-Pro/X-E. All of them are also equipped with twists and wheels. But for some reason, not much attention is paid to this. With the functional, speaking objectively, we have plus or minus parity, despite the fact that the matrices of these systems are “strongly” different. So where is the truth then? Why are Fuji cameras better than others?

  I thought about this for a long time and once again I was convinced that the truth is inside each of us. Don’t fall for marketing tricks. The world is now very susceptible to this influence.
