Fuji X-E1 Review
Those, who read our website on a frequent basis know that I ended up picking the Olympus OM-D E-M5 as my mirrorless camera of choice last year. Although I loved shooting with the Fuji X-Pro1, the two primary reasons why I decided to hold back, were its poor autofocus performance and lack of RAW...

When Fujifilm launched the X-Pro1 in Australia a year ago it emphasised that it was a "first camera option", meaning it wasn't intended to merely supplement a D-SLR, but to replace it completely. The price tag – similar to that of a higher-end D-SLR – helped underline the X-Pro1's frontline status.

On first glance, the Fujifilm X-E1 looks right out of the eighties when cameras were compact affairs with faux leather bodies and grips, and dozens of dials and buttons that one could fiddle around with to ensure that one got the perfect shot and did not waste the valuable film.

is pretty close to what until now
Read Chris R. Field. He's 100% right. If you're coming from (say) any Panasonic or Sony advanced compact camera and expect you're just upgrading... Forget it! Fuji cameras are an other world.

Just what I was looking for
I bought this camera looking for a lighter alternative to my Canon DSLR for hiking, backpacking and general travel photography. We did a week+ trip to the Rocky Mountains, and I put it through all the paces camping and backpacking. I've also used it for some portraiture work and flower photography.
Pros:
- Fast Shutter Speed
- Good Battery Life
- Good Firmware Upgrades
- Great Lenses From Fuji
- Great Resolution
- Large Clear LCD
- Small / Compact
Cons:
- Focusing Can Be Slow

great addt add on, but a bit pricey!
Adds necessary grip to the smallish Fuji. All metal construction and of course fits perfectly. Only bad design is lack of access to battery and sd card. And about $20 too high in my opinion.
Pros:
- Added Grip
- Quality construction
Cons:
- No Battery Accesa
- Price

Great camera. Images are razor sharp and nicely saturated. Pretty much every feature you need from a camera like this.

Fujifilm X-E1 review
Currently, the X-E1 costs £450 less than the street price of the X-Pro1, and is available with the superb 18-55mm lens (priced separately at £600) for the same price as the body-only X-Pro1. Considering the similarities between the two, the X-E1 is a good-value option.

Review: Fujifilm X-E1 â€" A Retro-Style Compact Mirrorless Camera
These days the Pentax-style retro film cameras seem to be a rage. The Fujifilm's retro-style mirrorless camera fills in the gap with X-E1. But does it take old school cameras forward, or is it just eye-candy? Let's find out.
Pros:
- APS-C sized sensor
- Well built
- Supports 1080p video recording @24fps
- Delightful 35mm f/1.4 lens
Cons:
- Steep learning curve
- Too many controls on different dials
- Processing algorithms don't work well
- Expensive
