Review: Fantastic Camera (so far), so glad I upgraded... - The Fujifilm X-T3 is a fantastic camera, I’m so glad I upgraded. First a little background. I’m a hobbyist photographer who has been doing hobbyist photography for about 25 years since I was in my teens. My first interaction with cameras was my father’s Asahi Pentax 35mm film camera which he bought in England back in the 60s. By the time I started to use that camera, it was older than I was! In my early 20s, I decided to step up the game and bought a Panasonic fixed lens “SLR look” camera. That was 1” sensor if I’m not mistaken. I took some pretty decent photos with that digital handheld camera. Back in 2013, I told myself that I’d upgrade once more and take a stab at the DSLRs. So I invested in a Canon Rebel T3i which came with the kit lens, 18-55mm. I also added a 70-300mm telephoto zoom lens to my arsenal and used this setup for 5 years. I’d shoot anything from my kids at home, to dance concerts to archery events and really maximized the Canon in many ways. I started to shoot in P-mode for about one year and then mostly shoot in Aperture Priority Mode, with some shoots done in Manual Mode. The T3i was a great starter camera. In 2017, I decided that I wanted to upgrade my camera and this is where things got confused. I looked at full frame cameras in Canon, full frame mirrorless in Sony, Micro 4/3, and APS-C cameras in almost every manufacturer, except Nikon (reason being, if I was upgrading in to a APS-C DSLR, I told myself I’d stick with the Canon). Believe me when I say that I had researched cameras for more than 18 months before deciding to invest in the X-T3. I then narrowed down my search to mirrorless systems. A friend of mines let me use his Olympus OMD-M5 for a few hours. Two things that struck me… How light the mirrorless was compared to my Canon and the ability to see what the photo looks like in the EVF or on the LCD with different ISO, Shutter Speeds and Aperture settings. Looking for the mirrorless, the search then spread to Sony (both full frame and APS-C), micro 4/3 in Panasonic and Olympus and of course Fujifilm. I eventually ruled out Sony. I felt that the “starter” Full Frames from Sony lacked some of the better features that the other, similarly priced APS-C cameras possessed. Plus, I thought the Sony lenses were too expensive. Micro 4/3 systems were inveigling me but that small sensor capabilities in low light, even with fast lenses was a bit iffy (for me). Eventually, in early 2018, I settled on either the X-T20 or the X-T2. The first feature that I was drawn to was the retro styling… the full manual adjustments on shutter speed, ISO and exposure. And the manual aperture ring adjustments on equipped lenses. Drool!!!! I was taken back to my teens when I was shooting on my dad’s Pentax and how excited I was to see how my photos would come out when I played around with different settings, not to mention the disappointment I would feel when I saw many over exposed or under exposed photos. For me, shooting on the Canon did not give that experience and while I learnt to navigate the buttons quite well for shooting in Aperture Priority or even Manual, the Pentax experience was always top notch. The Fujinon lenses also appealed to me. All reviews I read alluded to how sharp images were. And the prices of the lenses, while quite steep, were still cheaper than some of its counterparts in other manufacturers. I think in early 2018, I eventually settled on the X-T20 as it had many of the features of the X-T2 with the touchscreen. Then came July 2018 and I saw that the price on the X-T2 dropped to $1,099 a mere $200 more than the X-T20. The X-T2 then became the camera of choice. In early September, my decisions were stymied by the launch of the X-H1 as I began to wonder whether Fujifilm were heading in a different direction for IBIS. But I told myself that the lenses would be around for a while and that the X-T2 would be the way to go. Mid-September I was about to buy the X-T2 and while looking at a review of a Fujinon lens on dpreview, I saw a post on the new X-T3. I read all I could about the X-T3 and saw that there were introductory offers available on the X-T3 and many of the Fujinon lenses. Eventually I bought the X-T3 along with the Fujinon XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR Lens. I got the new setup over two days ago. Configured the camera to the way I want it, including back button focus and some customization on the Fn buttons. This camera is a dream to use. The build quality of the camera is first class and solid. My setup with the 16-55mm lens and the camera is a bit heavy, but that’s a price to pay for quality glass. The camera does indeed feel like the old Pentax and after shooting about 50 pictures, it is so effortless to simply turn a dial or a ring to adjust some aspect of the exposure. No more fiddling with this dial and that button and looking at a LCD screen to see the exposure settings before taking a picture, or half pressing the shutter button to see the same information in the view finder (that’s what I had to do with the Canon). The X-T3 is heavily customizable. Every setting is easily changed from the intuitive menu. One small complaint is that some of the menu settings are not that self-explanatory or clear so you would need the manual to decipher what a change in that setting does. Maybe in a firmware update Fujifilm could add a little on screen explanation on menu settings so the user can understand the change being made without having to revert to the manual. Which brings me to firmware. My camera was shipped with revision 1.0 of the firmware. I downloaded the latest firmware from Fuji’s website and followed the instructions to upgrade on the camera. The actual upgrade takes less than 90 seconds. So I would suggest that once you get your camera, perform the firmware update before doing anything else. The EVF is crystal clear, and to be honest, there’s no difference to me in using this EVF as compared to the pentaprism on the Canon. I found that the transition was seamless. The LCD is fun to use although I have found that sometimes my nose would cause a change of setting, especially a change in AF. So I just disable touchscreen AF. I tried a 120fps slow motion video capture of my daughter jumping. This is an awesome feature that I know I’ll love at those archery shoots. While the camera touts some impressive video features, only with time will I be able to unlock that potential. And speaking of archery, the 20 fps and 30 fps burst shooting would be great once I put it to the test. I did a few frames at these speeds and the camera was quite fast so this is another feature that I’m excited to use on the archery range. The AF is spot on fast. What I love about how I have the camera configured is that with back button autofocus I can leave the AF in Manual mode but still have AF-S or AF-C by either touching or holding the AF-L button (which I have configured as “AF-ON”). I have attached some photos to the review. All but the two photos of the X-T3 alongside the Asahi Pentax were out of camera JPEGs. The X-T3 alongside the Asahi Pentax were taken with my phone to give you an idea of the retro styling and the retro look with the silver and black. The photos show you the background blur you can get – that’s the lens mind you. But Image Quality looks great for out of camera JPEGs. The amount of detail is amazing with this camera and lens. Look at the photo of the lemon and all the imperfections you see on the skin! The picture of the willow was intentionally underexposed as I tried to show just how bad the weather was. And that chicken was on the grill while I was taking the photos. It was about 75% done but still looks delicious. You will see that there is a picture of some ants on an orchid leaf. Well for that picture, I was using AF-C mode. It was a challenge to get a fast moving ant in the focus point but once I did and locked on, the camera kept focus on the ant to the top for a few frames, until it disappeared or I moved. I’ve only had this camera for a few days but already love the combination of the lens and the camera. I can tell that this would be a great investment. After 18+ months of research and dawdling, I am glad that I took the time to research my options and bite the bullet with this X-T3.
Review: Now this here is an extremely useful tool. - A camera is a tool. In my world, that is. Not a gizmo or a grown up toy, a tool. I cannot keep up new products or enjoy the sensation of having one’s equipment obsolete two years later. Forcing the wrong tool to be a surrogate or having an insufficient one, for lack of a better term, sucks tuckus, can be so distracting your productivity is slashed and often negates the positive flow of creativity. Sure, millions of amazing photographs have been taken with terrible cameras, but the aresnal of options with this here X-T3 makes it much easier to do what I find most difficult, capturing what I see in my head and getting it on film... pseudo film. Megapixels are cute. The configuration possibilities infinite. Metering and autofocus lovely. Design impeccable. Rugged. All boxes checked. Here is why I’m totally floored by the X-T3.... FINALLY, a digital camera I can use without pining for my F3. I earned my degree in Photojournalism shooting endless rolls of TRI-X, T-Max 3200, actual slide film (great way to learn how film sees light at eight bucks a roll) and color negative when required. To me, digital cameras were horrible until the D700 opened my, ahem, eyes. Blunt, insufficient useless tools. Convenient, sure, but hamfisted and simply not worth it. After living, eating, sleeping and having a blissful love affair with an 8008s, the F3 + MD-4 combo and then the F5, how could I take fifty steps back? Shutter button delay. Remember that? DX cropping? Befuddling. My 85mm is now what? Destroyed my flow. The D700, an FX body + grip that broke my AMEX (grip a must) felt good ten years ago. Obsolete eight years ago. I’ve been nursing it, but we fell out of synch. FUJIFILM The X-Pro2 got me back in the game. It’s perfect. Converted after 25 years of Nikon loyalty. However, that means I had to collect new glass. I’ve always shot prime @ 85mm, 35mm and a Wide (20, 24 or, yawn, 28). Gathered those (FUJINON 14, 23 AND 56)... SECOND BODY. Changing lenses when doing documentary (inc. events like weddings) is laborious, conspicuous, an unwelcome respite and messy. Thus, second body. Which one? The X-Pro2 is my first rangefinder and has a special usefulness. My second needed to be equally effective. I chose the X-T3 (plus battery grip and simple grip - both worth every dime). It’s now Day Three with the X-T3 and I am in love. It will enable me to produce the work my imagination conjures up. “Why?’, you ask.. It feels like a 4:5 scale F3 (with grip) or a even a classic take on the D700 at 3:4 scale. Tools I know. Tools I love. Tools that don’t make me think about knob fiddling or hunting through designed-by-mathematicians menus. Except this one has an entire camera shop and darkroom built right in. After a few hours I now have seven custom modes ranging from film noir to oversaturated Velvia to 70s soft portrait. All the Fujifilm cameras have this, yes. Being able to SEE IN BLACK AND WHITE while I’m shooting in black and white doubled what little ‘talent’ I have. No longer do I have to mentally convert and calculate how the film reacts to the world seen through the lens of an SLR. Pause and think about that. My palette is grayscale. Color distracts me. WHY I LOVE THE X-T3... Flip out screen. Touch screen. Bluetooth remote and transfer. Fast, fast, fast focusing. Joystick. USB-C (thanks Tim Cook) Everything Fujifilm (just the route I took) Software evolution (similar, but not the same firmware as the x-pro2) With battery grip it’s 100% capable of enabling you to apply your Talent (Eye) shooting riots, sports, action, war, protests, more action, more sports. Fast made faster. Ruggedly rugged. Having a robust camera opens doors and wins trust because subjects recognize you as a professional. And so much more. This is the camera that finally allows me to accept digital, forget about digital and shoot unhindered. Buy it. Buy lots of batteries. The metal grip makes it much easier to hold. The battery grip gets an A. As a tool, it will be treated as such. I’m curious how it will stand up over time. Picking it up mid-review, I think it’ll be just fine. Can we slow down on technological evolution? This is enough. I’m good.

After living, eating, sleeping and having a blissful love affair with an 8008s, the F3 + MD-4 combo and then the F5, how could I take fifty steps back? Shutter button delay. Remember that? DX cropping? Befuddling. My 85mm is now what? Destroyed my flow. The D700, an FX body + grip that broke my AMEX (grip a must) felt good ten years ago. Obsolete eight years ago. I’ve been nursing it, but we fell out of synch. FUJIFILM The X-Pro2 got me back in the game. It’s perfect. Converted after 25 years of Nikon loyalty. However, that means I had to collect new glass. I’ve always shot prime @ 85mm, 35mm and a Wide (20, 24 or, yawn, 28). Gathered those (FUJINON 14, 23 AND 56)... SECOND BODY. Changing lenses when doing documentary (inc. events like weddings) is laborious, conspicuous, an unwelcome respite and messy. Thus, second body. Which one? The X-Pro2 is my first rangefinder and has a special usefulness. My second needed to be equally effective. I chose the X-T3 (plus battery grip and simple grip - both worth every dime). It’s now Day Three with the X-T3 and I am in love. It will enable me to produce the work my imagination conjures up. “Why?’, you ask.. It feels like a 4:5 scale F3 (with grip) or a even a classic take on the D700 at 3:4 scale. Tools I know. Tools I love. Tools that don’t make me think about knob fiddling or hunting through designed-by-mathematicians menus. Except this one has an entire camera shop and darkroom built right in. After a few hours I now have seven custom modes ranging from film noir to oversaturated Velvia to 70s soft portrait. All the Fujifilm cameras have this, yes. Being able to SEE IN BLACK AND WHITE while I’m shooting in black and white doubled what little ‘talent’ I have. No longer do I have to mentally convert and calculate how the film reacts to the world seen through the lens of an SLR. Pause and think about that. My palette is grayscale. Color distracts me. WHY I LOVE THE X-T3... Flip out screen. Touch screen. Bluetooth remote and transfer. Fast, fast, fast focusing. Joystick. USB-C (thanks Tim Cook) Everything Fujifilm (just the route I took) Software evolution (similar, but not the same firmware as the x-pro2) With battery grip it’s 100% capable of enabling you to apply your Talent (Eye) shooting riots, sports, action, war, protests, more action, more sports. Fast made faster. Ruggedly rugged. Having a robust camera opens doors and wins trust because subjects recognize you as a professional. And so much more. This is the camera that finally allows me to accept digital, forget about digital and shoot unhindered. Buy it. Buy lots of batteries. The metal grip makes it much easier to hold. The battery grip gets an A. As a tool, it will be treated as such. I’m curious how it will stand up over time. Picking it up mid-review, I think it’ll be just fine. Can we slow down on technological evolution? This is enough. I’m good.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simply, Amazing.

I switched from a Nikon D750 into the X-T3. Whoah. I was not prepared to be as impressed by the X-T3 as I was. It is truly a special camera. It has almost any feature you could ask for in a camera today. It is definitely on par with the Sony A7III and any other high-end mirrorless camera. The only difference being its APS-C sensor size instead of full-frame. Ultimately, that was the game breaker for me because of my shooting style, wanting as much bokeh as I can get regardless of lens. Speaking of lenses, I used the Fujinon 35mm f/1.4 and the 16-55 f/2.8. Both lenses were phenomenal and matched the superior build quality of the X-T3. The auto-focusing on this camera is INSANE. It has Eye-Detect/Tracking AF and almost never misses. I can't tell you how satisfying it is to nail focus on the eye instead of the eye-lashes or nose. However, it is lacking eye-detection on animals, which is something Sony, Panasonic, Canon, and maybe even Nikon mirrorless systems all offer. I am sure there will be a firmware update to support this eventually. But, it would seriously make this the best AF system available if you could track your dog or cat as well. (niche, but still prevalent in today's Prosumer market). As far as build goes, you can't beat it. It feels so durable and without any expenses paid. The combination between metal, yes metal (not plastic), all around and the faux-leather grip is truly stunning. The dials are fun and such, but I literally never used them. I set my camera up to use normal function buttons and dials that all cameras have. Speaking of function buttons: this camera has about 9 different buttons you can program to do any of about 50 functions. Additionally, you can program 4 actions on the touch screen as well, bringing the total up to 13 different quick function controls. In reality, you actually can get 17 different controllable functions if you use the dedicated shutter, iso, exposure compensation dials as well as the aperture ring on all fuji lenses. I have never experienced a camera that allows for so many micro adjustments to be made manually without having to do a certain combination of buttons. Being a mirrorless APS-C camera, it is very small. Too small for me. I had to buy a grip to add to it, just to comfortably hold onto it, especially with that rather large 16-55 lens. But, I have decently large hands and was coming off of the Nikon D750 which has an enormous grip on it. The pro for its size is its ability to travel very easily as well as walk around all day holding onto it. I will also add that this camera produces amazing, moody colors, has incredible video capabilities, and is one of the best cameras I have ever used. Sadly, Fuji has no intention of making a full-frame camera, so I have switched back to the Nikon family. Who is this camera for: -Moody/punchy wedding photographers or videographers that don't mind having less bokeh. -Street photographers -Anyone who grew up using vintage style cameras and want some nostalgia in their lives -Anyone looking to use photography as a career. -Anyone looking to switch to mirrorless, but not spend $2000+ just for a body and then fork over thousands for lenses. -Vloggers who don't mind an external monitor
