One Month with the Fujifilm X-T1: The Mirrorless Camera That Won
My Heart | Evgeny Tchebotarev

Firstly, I have to say this is a big change from my Canon 6D or Nikon D810. It is much smaller and lighter, a welcome change, while also feeling very solid. There are no flimsy plastic pieces and the body is magnesium alloy, so it feels as sturdy as a top-of-the-line DSLR. The camera I got was used (a loaner!), so a couple of controls were a little sticky, but I definitely wouldn’t expect that on a brand new camera. The lenses I got were also used, except for 10-24mm, which felt extremely tight and brand new (because it was, of course). Other lenses, the 23mm (35mm equivalent) quickly became my go-to lens. When I realized a year ago that I shoot at 35mm so much, I actually bought a Sigma 35mm Art for my Nikon. I purchased the additional L-plate and occasionally used the Peak Design Capture to hold it on my Mindshift Gear backpack strap while I was walking, which was extremely convenient for that camera (I tried it later with my Nikon—that was a no-go due to weight and size)……
