What I Think of the Fujifilm X-T1 | Bert Stephani
CONCLUSION
Until a couple of weeks ago, I considered the X-E2 to be the best Fujifilm camera. However I still used my X-Pro1 as my main camera, simply because it’s still a great camera, it sits better in my hands and (although I wish I wouldn’t have to take it into account) it gives a better impression towards professional clients. But after only an hour with the X-T1, I knew it would become my new main camera. It’s faster, weather sealed, has more features, and fits my hands perfectly. I will be buying the optional battery grip as soon as it’s available in Belgium. I will be using the camera mostly without the grip to have a small and light camera that allows to shoot reportage photography without attracting attention and to create an intimate atmosphere during portrait shoots. When shooting in the studio or with bigger lenses, the grip will come in handy. And it might be good to pimp up the camera with the grip when shooting for new corporate clients who were expecting someone with a DSLR
I still prefer the rangefinder-style bodies over the SLR-shape but until the successor of the X-Pro1 becomes a reality (I suspect in 2015), the X-T1 is in my opinion the best X-camera……
