Fujifilm X-E1
The Fuji X-E1 may be the baby brother to Fuji's flagship X-Pro1, but in many ways is its equal. Most importantly, the two cameras share the same impressive 16.3-megapixel APS-C X-Trans CMOS sensor, which produces image quality superior to most APS-C-sensor-based digital SLRs, but in arguably more...

- Mediocre autofocus and shot-to-shot speeds
- Wakes slowly from sleep mode
- ISO

Fuji X-E1 Review: Wonderful For Stills, But It's No Jack Of All Trades
The Fuji X-Pro1 was a hit. But at $1700 for the body alone, it was (and still is) bonkers expensive. The new X-E1 is Fuji's reaction to that. With a pared down body and new kit lens, Fuji could maintain its enthusiast appeal - and attract a broader market.

Fujifilm FinePix X-E1 Review
When Fujifilm released the X-E1 it's clear that the company has one thing in mind, and that is to polish some of the rough edges that critics pointed out on the X-Pro1. Well, they didn't have to do much as the X-Pro1 is already regarded by many as one of the sleekest MILC in the market.

Fujifilm X-E1 review by spochana
A long waiting Pro-quality mirrorless camera for me. It is light and solid built. I can carry to everywhere I go without a big camera bag but it can deliver high quality photos similar to a DSLR (APC sensor not full frame).
Pros:
- Light
- solid built
- DSLR image quality
Cons:
- a little slower focusing speed than DSLR

Fujifilm X-E1
The X-series cameras also allow you to adjust dynamic range, saturation, sharpness and gradation. A sweep panorama function works well, letting you sweep the camera across the scene to create a panoramic shot.
Pros:
- Splendid image quality
- Compact body with great retro style
- Intuitive physical controls
- Packed with professional-grade features
Cons:
- Slower autofocus than rivals
- Unimpressive video
- Partially plastic body isn't weather-sealed

Fujifilm X-E1
The new X-E1 further expands Fujifilm's X-series of serious digital cameras, which includes the range-topping X-Pro1 and the popular X100, amongst others. As with the X-Pro1, the Fujifilm X-E1 is a classically styled interchangeable lens camera that recalls film rangefinders from the past, with a...

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.

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.
