Dialed In
Most mirrorless cameras are happy being smaller, beginner-friendly, somewhat less-capable alternatives to DSLRs. But the Fujifilm X-T1 has a different goal in mind: It's built to replace a DSLR camera entirely. Indeed, it's hard to think of a camera...
Great image quality with natural colors and skin tones. Weatherproof body with quick access to practically every setting. Excellent eye-level viewfinder and manual-focus helpers. Fast autofocus and peppy continuous-shooting mode. In-camera...
Battery life is only OK. No built-in flash (but it does come with a little detachable one). Steep learning curve for novices. Expensive for its sensor size

Fujifilm X-T1: The company's best ILC to date
With a great viewfinder, speedy burst and excellent photo quality, the camera really impresses. But there are some irksome quirks.
The stunning viewfinder, comfy grip and plethora of direct controls makes the ; a joy to shoot with, plus the image quality is great and the continuous-shooting is among the best in its class.
Some of the controls are too hard to manipulate, its general performance doesn't stand out, and the movie quality disappoints.
The Fujifilm X-T1 is a great camera for advanced photographers as long as its quirks don't bother you.

Fujifilm X-T1 Body Only, Black
The X-T1 delivers excellent photo quality. While the innards are similar to the X-E2, there are some differences. New, lower-noise circuitry has allowed Fujifilm to bump the maximum sensitivity to ISO 51200 up from ISO 25600. However, I really didn't...

Analogue dials and switches provide engaging shooting experience, Superb, huge high resolution electronic viewfinder gives generally-accurate preview of image, Excellent image quality at both Low and High ISOs, Very attractive JPEG colour rendition,...
Rear buttons are small, and almost flush to camera body, Four-way controller is rather 'spongey' in feel, Awkwardly positioned, locking ISO dial is inconvenient (especially with large lenses), Raw files not recorded when ISO dial set to 'L', 'H1' and...
