Must use it to appreciate it.
First I was not sure about how it would look on the beautiful camera. But it will be totally in my palm and can't really see when I hold up the camera. Without this grip, camera may be too small to hold with one hand without the grip. It is a must for me, coming from DSLR.
Pros:
- Very Solid
Cons:
- None

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

Not perfect, but not many better.
I bought the X-E1 because I can't stand using the rear LCD of digital cameras, I need to look through the finder to feel connected. I also wanted something small as I found I didn't use my SLR very often any more because of size.
Pros:
- I bought the X-E1 because I can't stand using the rear LCD of digital cameras, I need to look through the finder to feel connected
- I also wanted something small as I found I didn't use my SLR very often any more because of size.
Cons:
- A bit slow to focus
- a bit slow with buit in flash
- sometimes picks too slow a shutter speed in aperture priority with auto ISO

Pros:

- Stylish and retro design
- Excellent high ISO images
- Top-notch controls
- Stunning image quality
Cons:
- No touchscreen
- Fixed rear LCD
- Build quality not up to the mark
- AF performance could have been better

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

Fujifilm X-E1 First Impressions Review
It feels redundant to re-introduce the Fujifilm X Series at this point. At Photokina 2010, Fuji debuted the X100 , a fixed-lens camera with a big sensor and a groundbreaking optical/electronic hybrid viewfinder.
Pros:
- Bright
- sharp OLED viewfinder
- Costs much less than X-Pro1
- Great retro design and feel
Cons:
- Focus still seems to be wonky

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...
Pros:
- Significantly less expensive than Fuji's flagship CSC, but with many of the same features, Really excellent image quality overall, JPEGs are very clean, with very conservative sharpening
- (Who needs RAWs?
Cons:
- Limited selection of X-mount lenses
- Needs bigger handgrip for extensive use
- Mushy shutter button feel
- Mediocre autofocus and shot-to-shot speeds
- Wakes slowly from sleep mode
- ISO
- Film Simulation
- and Dynamic Range bracketing disable RAW recording
- Auto white balance too red indoors,
