Value for money - despite being expensive the output is comparable to more expensive full frame cameras
Bad points:: AF slow in low light
Inaccurate frame lines in OVF
Aperture "chattering"
Of these only the AF is a real drawback

Simon, Northants Professional photographer

Score 5.0/10

Good points:: Fantastic image quality, Fuji files are really lovely straight out of the camera. Images taken with the 35mm F1.4 are very sharp. Nice small camera.
Bad points:: Framelines in viewfinder are not at all accurate, they only seem to cover about 75% of what the sensor sees with the 35mm F1.4. This makes framing difficult.

The aperture makes a constant chattering noise as you move about with the camera. This is very annoying.

Auto focus not the best, I have a Fuji X100 so this came as no great surprise.

Product Features

Camera Type	Compact
There are 2 main types of camera: The SLR and the Compact. SLR stands for Single Lens Reflex. SLR cameras use a prism to reflect the exact image as seen through the lens and so offers a more accurate viewfinder. SLR cameras have detachable lenses offering greater flexibility if you wish to take a variety of different photographs. Compact cameras have a built in lens and an ‘above lens’ viewfinder which is less accurate but they are often cheaper, more sleekly designed and easier to carry anywhere with you to capture that moment perfectly without having to fiddle with complex settings or a bag full of lenses.
Resolution (Megapixels)	16

Screen size (Inches)	3
Screen size is measured diagonally from corner to corner.
Type of image stabiliser	Optical
If a photo is taken at a slow shutter speed, or at a long focal length, the effects of ‘hand shake’ will be amplified. Some cameras come with built-in image stabilisation which is designed to act against this to produce sharper images. It’s great for low light shots without a tripod, like at a gig.
Touchscreen	No
Touchscreen technology allows you to move and click things directly on the screen using your finger or a stylus pen.
3D	No

Media format	Memory card
This is the type of storage that your digital camera or camcorder uses to save images to. The main types of card media format: Compact Flash Micro SD MMC (Multi Media Card) SD Card (Secure Digital) SDHC (Secure Disk High Capacity)
PictBridge	Yes
An industry standard allowing images to be printed from camera to printer, without needing a computer. CIPA PictBridge Standard Website
Weight (g)	400
The weight of the product in grams.
WiFi	No
Wifi allows you to connect your device to wireless routers or modems which allows you to connect to broadband internet.
Shortest shutter speed (Fractions of a second)	1/1
This is the fastest speed at which the camera can take a photo. Faster shutter speeds really freeze the action and are great for sports photography.
Longest shutter speed (Fractions of a second)	1/30
This is the longest exposure your camera will take. The longer you take a photo for, the more light is let in and the more motion is captured. Long shutter speeds can give fantastic, artistic results. Try photographing the night sky at 30s or longer to see how the rotation of the Earth causes the stars to curve through the scene.
RAW Format	Yes
GPS Receiver	No

Release date	2012-03-19
The date the product was originally made available for purchase.
Serial Shot Mode	Yes
Autofocus	Yes
Changeable Lens	Yes
