Shortly after the release of the camera, it was reported that the camera had a light leak through its accessory ports. [4] Fujifilm responded stating that only some cameras from an early production run were affected, and offered to repair affected units free of charge. [5] I use the LEICA strap. The plastic gizmos on the LEICA strap that integrate so well with LEICA cameras may mar the X-T1's finish. I use electrical tape to protect my X-T1, more diligent people might use Fuji's provided strap lugs, tools and protectors with other straps instead.

Better yet, the Fuji, just like Contax, changes its exposure mode automatically as you turn the shutter and/or aperture rings to A when you want them to set themselves.

The X-T1 has marvelous automatic eye-control, so the rear LCD or electronic finder come up automatically depending on how you're holding the camera. Positioned above where the thumb rests for ease of access, it provides compensation over a -3 to +3EV range.

Switching from AF to manual focus instantly applies the viewfinder’s dual mode that cleverly splits the screen in two, offering a view of the full image on the left and a smaller magnified view on the right. What’s more, this dual mode ties in well with the camera’s focus peaking and digital split-image focus options, to ensure that when the camera is used with manual-focus lenses only, optimum sharpness is achieved with every shot. The dedicated movie recording button can be used to start video recording at any time (the X-T1 no longer has movie recording as a distinct drive mode), but one downside of this is that it's less easy to engage a 16:9 preview for movie recording. You can turn on 'HD Framing ' lines in the Screen set-up menu, but this comes at the expense of other grid lines. The other option is to select 16:9 for stills shooting, but then (of course) you get 16:9 stills. During Bulb exposures, the display counts-up the actual exposure. Likewise, the camera will sit and "process" a dark frame for an additional time equal to the original exposure, but it won't count that for you. Here is an illustration of a traditional bayer pattern color filter array compared to the new Fuji color filter array:As with the X-E2, the the X-T1 dispenses with the range-topping X-Pro1's innovative Hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder, replaced instead by a brand new high-resolution OLED electronic viewfinder. Although sharing the same 2.36m dot resolution as the X-E2, Fujifilm have clearly been hard at work on making the X-T1's electronic viewfinder even better. With a magnification of 0.77x, it narrowly beats the Olympus M-D E-M1 to the title of "EVF with the world's highest magnification", while it has a lag-time of just 0.005 sec, in practice answering one of the most common complaints about electronic viewfinders.

The X-T1 just shoots, and the results are always super-sharp and well exposed — better than I get from DSLRs, whose exposure and focus aren't always dead-on as they are with the X-T1. Try it with your lens, you may or may not get different results with different lenses. Only some lenses will focus more closely in this mode.

Specifications

The Fujifilm X-T1 produces images of outstanding quality. It recorded noise-free JPEG images at ISO 100 all the way up to 6400, with a little noise at ISO 12800 and more visible noise and slight colour desaturation at the faster setting of ISO 25600, an amazing performance for a camera with an APS-C sensor. The new highest speed of 51200 is best avoided though. The RAW files were also excellent, with usable images throughout the entire range of ISO 200-6400. The new Fujifilm X-T1 is the best X-series camera to date, and one of the best interchangeable lens cameras, mirrorless or otherwise, that we've ever had the pleasure of reviewing. The X-T1 has a very different sensor from other brands, and its images look very different. It has no anti-alias filter, so the results are much sharper than from most other cameras. Here are two 100% crops which have been Saved as Web - Quality 50 in Photoshop. The right-hand image has had some sharpening applied in Photoshop. The out-of-the camera images are a little soft and ideally benefit from some further sharpening in a program like Adobe Photoshop. You can also change the in-camera sharpening level. The XT-1 works fast and easy, as a camera should. You don't need a manual to figure it out; it's all right in front of you. Everything just works as you'd expect it to.

The images are also sharper than with most DSLRs since the magic Fuji sensor needs no anti-alias filtering. The Fuji XT-1 is what a Japanese camera should be: tiny, tight, precise, fast, quiet, easy-to-use and extremely well made out of all metal. It's not another offshored-to-China excuse made out of plastic. It drives me nuts shooting a DSLR or LEICA when I can't see my image pop up instantly in the finder after I've shot it — as I do with my X-T1. Yes, there are plenty of plastic consumer Micro 4/3 cameras with LCD finders, but they are not professional grade. Photographers don't do menus. I need a camera with real dials like the X-T1 and fast metal lenses, not a plastic toy.The Fujifilm X-T1's 18-55mm kit lens provides an effective focal range of 27-83mm in 35mm terms, as demonstrated below. Weird is that the image in the finder is always hunting in and out of focus, but fear not, the actual images are almost all perfect when you've got PRE-AF set to ON. Next year maybe Fuji will fix the hunting problem, but so what if it hunts before we take the picture; the key is that the AFC images are now in focus when shot. It has a superb solid metal grip built in. The grip feels swell in my hands. This tiny camera always feels stable.
