Bye bye NIKON, Hello FUJIFILM | Björn Moerman
X-T1 the camera that changed it all!
When Fujifilm announced their new top of the line X-T1 in January 2014, their two main selling points were „weather-sealing“ and an „enhanced auto-focus system“ which included the focus tracking system which I was lurking after. As soon as GPP Dubai had an X-T1 in stock, I was on my way! I didn’t take long, before my Nikon D800 and 4 expensive lenses went up for sale on the second hand photography market. After all they had been used so little since the start of 2014, that they really deserved some new ownership. So is the X-T1 perfect? Obviously NOT! No piece of technology is… I don’t like how the 4 way buttons feel at the back, even though I slowly learned to live with it. Battery performance is really nothing to write home about; especially since it is known to drop from being fully charged to being empty in just a few shots. I travel with a minimum of 4 batteries where ever I go. I do however like the camera. It has something which is very hard to describe; like falling in love all over again…….
