If you have plans to buy a new camera, but the small body size, and of course you take it to the light to go, then you need to consider the Fujifilm X-E1, although it is now available X-E2, but certainly more economical if you buy a series previously. You need to know, that there is a test from DSLR Magazine comparing the mirrorless camera to the Fuji X-E1 Full Frame DSLR camera Nikon D600 and Canon 5D Mk. III. 

And photographs that produced by Fuji X-1 was very good and on par with the Canon EOS 5D Mk III and Nikon D600. However, it should be noted that this is only a comparison of the quality of the image or images, and do not take into account the overall performance of the camera, such as ergonomic aspects, AF speed, battery lifetime and other features. Is not the ultimate goal of a camera is the result of a good photo?

Fuji X-E1 sensor size APSC, while the other two sized Full Frame camera. Technically, APS-C sensor which should have a smaller image quality under FF, both in terms of resolution, berformance noise, dynamic range and other aspects. But Fuji has made ​​a breakthrough that the sensor is smaller, does not have to always be ugly results. Fuji just need to strengthen in AF performance factors, and also the performance of the camera in general, because of various reviews on them is weak there, and there is little lag. In addition, the lens must be reproduced choice, of course, with a compact size, making it convenient to use and attractive to look at.

There are photographers who say that the Fuji X-E1 autofocus is actually quite fast, but somewhat troublesome because only a single point. This causes the user must use the shift key. Could have used a new sliding lockable focus the camera to adjust the composition but still not fast enough. My wishlist from Fuji X-E1 is like the Sony NEX 5N autofocus, which can recognize faces and tracking objects with the touch of a finger. Peaking focus is also useful if the manual focus. Third capabilities or features were unfortunately not be found in Fuji. It is understandable because the Fujifilm X-E1 is minimalist camera, but with proper use you can generate thousands of good photos from this kemara.

Unlike the X-Pro1 with hybrid multi viewfinder, the X-E1 camera boasts an OLED electronic viewfinder with 2.36 million dot resolution, making it one of the highest resolutions available on digital cameras with EVFs.

FUJIFILM X-E1 key features list:

  • 16.3 megapixel APS-C X-Trans CMOS Sensor

  • FUJIFILM X mount (for Fujinon XF lenses)
  • Extra-resolution 2.36 million dot OLED electronic viewfinder high
  • 2.8-inch (460K dot) LCD (high contrast, high brightness and wide viewing angle)
  • Built-in pop-up flash (hotshoe attachment is also available for external flash)
  • Shutter lag time of 0.05 sec
  • Q (quick) menu button for setting shooting
  • In-camera RAW converter
  • Film simulation modes (Velvia, Astia, Provia, Monochrome, Sepia, PRO Neg Neg Hi Std & PRO)
  • Artistic features inc. Some exposure & Panoramic shooting
  • Auto Bracketing function (AE / ISO / DR & FS)
  • Full HD Movie

Fujifilm X-E1 features the same 16.3 megapixel APS-C X-Trans CMOS sensor as the FUJIFILM X-Pro1. To satisfy your creativity as a photographer, then the X-E1 offers Fujifilm's creative "Film Simulation Mode" to simulate the distinctive textures of conventional photo film. 

Use high saturation "Velvia" for landscape images with stunning primary colors, "ASTIA" for faithful reproduction of subtle color and more flexible "Provia" to see nature, as well as two additional settings based on professional color negative films. Neg.Std PRO PRO Neg.Hi soft and sharp tonal suitable for both indoor portrait photography. Three types of simulations Filters are also available for monochrome and sepia look. Film Simulation Bracketing function use the a single exposure to produce three images with Film Simulation effects applied.

Before you buy this camera, you can compare Fujifilm EX-1 with the Samsung NX 300 or Sony RX100 and Olympus Olympus OMD EM-5, even with other DSLR cameras such as the Nikon D3300 or Canon EOS 650D.
