Why I love and hate my Fujifilm X-T1 | In Babzowski’s Eye

Recently, I made a round the world trip with my wife and my 2yo boy. Not an adventurous one, more like a long tourist travel (it’s hard to really backpack with a baby). I new this travel would be an awesome opportunity for me to get incredible photos. So, I made a big decision, after long months of reflection: I sold my Canon 5DmkII and all my gear, to buy a Fujifilm X-T1. I’m gonna explain you how PM2S (aka Fujifilm France, Belgium and Luxembourg Customer Care) refused to repair my under warranty Fuji X-T1 and sent me a 700€ quotation. Since October, they didn’t answer any of my email, tweet, Facebook private or public message. I even contacted M. ABUAF, head of Camera Products at Fujifilm France, and got no answer from him neither. I own a Fuji X100s since the release day. This is my best photo gear investment. So I decided to buy the X-T1 at it’s first day of release, blinded eyes. I have to be clear with on point before I go further: i LOVE this camera. I love the photos it produces (that’s the most important), I love how it feels in the hands, and I love how it looks a good travel camera… or at least I thought so. Because, after only 2 months of travel in New Zealand and Australia, the problems began…….
