Fujifilm X-E3 Body

Advantages: Photo quality in JPEG and RAW, stylish design, convenient viewfinder, joystick focus point selection, excellent dynamic range of the matrix, working ISO up to 3200 and higher, excellent video with confident autofocus, 8 frames per second series, excellent Fuji color reproduction, touch screen, bluetooth ...

Disadvantages: I would like a longer battery life and the flip-up screen is sometimes useful.

Comment: I had a happy opportunity to be one of the first to work with this camera, so I will share my first impressions.The camera turned out to be successful in my opinion and has no obvious flaws. In terms of photo quality, it is on par with the X-PRO 2 and X-T2. The body has become more compact, the built-in flash has been removed. The joystick is now metal. Unusual, but comfortable. There is a choice of the focus point by the joystick. The screen is not folding, this is its main feature. For whom this is important, it is better to take the X-T20. But the viewfinder is more convenient to work on the X-E3. The nose does not rest on the screen. In general, the camera continued the popular X-E and PRO series, receiving a new sensor and processor, and retaining the rangefinder design. I suggest watching my small video with a review and test photos https://youtu.be/AL15n5U3GYA

Advantages: Compact camera with good sensor

Disadvantages: This cannot be considered a drawback of the camera, just a small drawback for me. The Ronin SC does not support this camera.

Comment: This is my third Fuji. They are all good in their own way. The XT-1 Battery Grip is a gorgeous, almost full-size camera with stunning styling. The X-100 is small, comfortable, with a central shutter, the sound of which cannot be compared with any other. Both of these cameras are old, but continue to work honestly. And each has nuances because of which I decided to buy the X-E3. The X 100 is cool, but with no interchangeable lens. X-T1 is still a large camera. Therefore, I bought X-E3. The camera is small, the touch screen with the ability to call the settings menu with a swipe is very convenient. I don't know how it was in previous generations without a joystick, but it is very convenient to work with a troika with a joystick. The only thing I lacked after DSLRs was the quick change of the focus area. There are no problems with this at all. Compared to the XT range, the iso changer is a bit lacking and not so comfortable to hold, but it's all a price to pay for the size of the camera. If you want a small camera then this is definitely the X-E3. Of course, a camera is primarily a picture and there is a choice. But besides the picture, there is also the design of the camera itself and here Fuji definitely does unique things. They are perhaps the only ones who do not something similar to classic cameras, but make cameras with the philosophy of a classic camera. And personally, I have great pleasure in using Fuji

Advantages: Size, build, control, photo quality

Disadvantages: Sometimes it hangs. Roads.

Comment: General conclusion: not for everybody. The device was taken for everyday life and justifies itself 100%. If it focuses slower than a DSLR, it is not critical. Used with 16-80 / 4 lens. If you hit the exposure and immediately cropped it correctly, the photos are of very high quality, but this is true for any cropped technique. I usually use an intra-chamber burner and don't correct anything else. I hung up a couple of times, I sin on the firmware. Otherwise, a strange feeling, like an ordinary cropped device, but you enjoy using it and the result, so I won't recommend it. We plan to buy a 56 mm portrait lens.
