I actually like the looks of it a lot, needs a half-case to complete the look though. It's very retro-Fujica SLR.

Hnnnnggg...

I love my Fuji and I genuinely went with it over the A6000 solely based on looks, theAF doesn't really concern me (although it has surprised me) on the XE2 because I mainly use adapted lenses.

XT1's looks are a bit "meh" to me personally but at least it ain't an XC10 lmao. Fucking sensor is blowing me away time and time again, paired up with great high ISO performance makes it a really freaking sweet camera.

There's nothing wrong with a camera being good looking OP. Canons and Nikons are hideous and all look the fucking same, I miss when camera design actually took some creativity and wasn't 100% about specs.

I have a couple, the first has got to be the Asahiflex IIa, it's just the squashed look of it, the other would have to be the Minolta SR-7, it looks like what many would think a film SLR should be. Boxy, solver, compact, and built like a brick.

Hipsters don't exist, homie.
It's just a word you use to cope with your outsider status.

I like small-gripped, small-footprint SLRs just as I like rangefinder-styled cameras. Just because a massive hand grip is comfortable to you doesn't mean it is to everyone.

You couldn't have more clearly said "you and I kind of know each other, but I'm a bitter bitch and don't know how to approach you in a non-anonymous context."

Hipster is just a pejorative to you. It's an insult. It's something you throw out at others because you've considered yourself or been considered an outsider your entire life. You're so socially inexperienced that you fail to realize all things you attribute to "hipsterism" are simply the current norms and trends- things that have always existed.

Using the word "hipster" is to announce to the world "I have very few thoughts of my own, and for this reason attack people that I perceive to be lacking in originality with a most intense vigor"

Hope you have a good Mother's Day weekend, anon. Be sure to give her a hug. :^3

I think "hipster" is more like "pretentious snob who lacks depth of character and wears flannel with weird haircuts"

in your case he probably meant you are trying to act like a hipster, which is kind of worse

Seriously, the xt1 has superior usability to nearly every DSLR on the market because they decided to make an iso, shutter speed, and aperture priority dial and make it so all of the modes can be switched on dials so you don't have to navigate with a shitty touch screen or d-pad. This sort of "retro" design benefitted the usability and I don't think I can go back to using cameras that don't have independent dials for these functions because it's just so much quicker.

Fuji user here:

Fuji primes and handling of the lenses is second to none. Especially the 14mm and 23mm are better than anything I've used before (Canon full frame and olympus E-M5).

X-trans sensor is great. I learned to process it properly and now I do get nice results from it.

I very much care about looks but it's not a dealbreaker. The X-T1 looks ok, X-Pro1 is beautiful, X-E1 and 2 are inconspicuous but have OK handling... and X-T10 is ugly as fuck. It also looks uncomfortable so highly unlikely I'll ever get it.

12 - 16 MP is enough for me. Maybe 20+ could be nice, but I've never really even used full resolution on pics I take now.

Now for some points to improve:
Fuji's lack of a usable TTL flash system is disturbing. I really hope they'll realize this and implement something with radio.

All lenses have randomly different AF/MF systems. Some have a clutch, others have a fly-by-wire MF and some have both... Make up your mind.

Some obvious misses in what needs weather resistance and OIS. The 16-55 could have definitely used OIS, but the 10-24 didn't, but definitely needs WR.

1/180th flash sync is shit tier flash sync. Electronic shutter not firing the center pin sucks too. It's easy to implement a faster flash sync with electronic shutter this way and they should just do it.

except with manual focus
I love my xt-1 but the 35mm (50 equivalent) abysmal at manual focusing due to its slow motor and focus by wire as opposed to true manual focus. Given the quality of the viewfinder, their next attempt at a 50mm should have true manual focus for street photographers who are picking up their cameras, especially given the great focus assist settings they have when using manual focus.

God yeah, even if they made some cheap lenses with a manual helicoid (I.e. samyang style lenses) with auto aperture stop down and superior optics. This isn't a request just a dream. Until then I'll just keep adapting manual lenses on my Fuji.

There's a guy on YouTube called Fuzzywashebear who owns an xpro1 and uses the voigtlander 35/1.4 "m" mount and he likes it a lot even though he reports it to be quite soft wide open. He shows image samples iirc.

P.s. its a really good fucking channel, like a British Matt Day who doesn't show his face and has absolutely beautiful video work. Its a shame he doesnt upload that often at the moment (well photography related videos)

I bought a mirrorless camera in the first place so I could take my camera with me everywhere as my canon needed a bag and didn't suit my shooting style, I take my XE2 everywhere with me, when its raining and I don't want to go out I like to see what other people do with their cameras hell I've been delving into the world of Moriyama recently and I've really liked his work.

>>2580461
I like his taste as well, he dresses up his cameras really nicely (soft shutters, straps, cases) his flickr is pretty sweet too.
