Fujifilm cameras are narrow toed, high heeled shoes or tight pants with shallow pockets. They are inconvenient and not very useful but feminine leaning individuals irrationally adore them even if they're an asian ripoff of an italian designed original (alibaba is chic!)
>inb4 a dying /p/ cope - how can you be an artist if you don't care about aestheticsThere are masculine aesthetics and there are feminine aesthetics. Fujifilm leans hard into pairing with feminine aesthetics and lifestyle decisions.
It should work out for them, because that's a little over 50% of people, and way more than 50% of "photographers" (whether or not you'd call them photographers based on your own artistic standards...)
