After months, Fujifilm has officially announced a very compact camera designed to simulate semi-framed film cameras and early 2000s bud. You need vertical photos and videos that help a viewfinder and vertical screen. I spent a few hours to try half of the X, and it’s pretty fun, hoping for fijifilm. It’s something you will bring a night with friends, kept in a bag or pocket, so you can Capture moments without needing your phone.
Its price can also take a break. With this little camera a little preview of my little time.
Hardware
Although the smallest digital cameras of the 2000s are slightly large, it is positive.
- 17.7 Megapixels (7,296×4,864 for pictures from 3,648×4,864 or 2 to 1)
- 1 inch sensor
- 32mm F2.8 lens (35 mm equivalent)
- Optical visual
- Fujifilm film simulations
- 240 grams (8.5 ounces)
Features do not explain the whole story with this camera, but they are still interesting. A 1-inch sensor is not heard in a camera in this size. This SONY XV-1 II Although it is mainly the same size and even more expensive. As the most expensive Panasonic ZS99have smaller sensors. The X half sensor is directed vertically as a back screen. This X speaks of the main design of half. This is a camera to take pictures you can share quickly and easily on social media. There are 3: 4 aspect ratio in pictures, video (1,080×1,440).
The only collections are exposed and is a relative. Yes, this is a movie advance arm and in fact only here is a use outside of retro style points.
X One of the main recommendations of half is the ability to draw a side-by-side image, called Fuji 2-in-1. At this glance you can see some examples later. Photo, pull the movie using retro movie advances, then take another photo. Both photos are kept separately, but the camera combines a third appearance that they are sideways to be separated by a line that is a style of choosing them. The same trick video and maybe it can be done with both photos and videos.

Fuji’s camera, X half Fuji’s famous movie simulations. They usually change the image in the way you can get it with significant edits. In Instagram, this change is more than a filter you can add to many aspects of sharp, color and tone.
A small second screen on the back, shows the active simulation mode, as if you look at a movie roll inside the camera and slide through different modes while watching the main screen. In addition, the “toy,” “high button” “high button” “high button” “Lightweight leak” etc. I couldn’t try it all but some people I used was pretty fun.
Vertical screen and optical viewfinder. The secondary screen on the left is generally indicating active film simulation. This is also a touch screen so you can slide. It works as a second screen for some menus and settings.
For 96, 54 or 72 photos, there is also a mode called movie camera locking the movie simulation mode of your choice. There is no image in this mode and other options are limited. Actually forces x to use half as a movie camera. Some photographers know such restrictive problems. I am not fan, maybe I grew up with the restrictions of the film, but I understand how many people enjoy them.
The new x half application was not ready to check, but the movie should have interesting ways to “develop” and adjust the images taken in camera mode.
X half of the same battery like other fuji cameras, an LED flash and Bluetooth is enabled. This can also join one Fujifilm-in Instax printers for instant film prints. The camera I tested was a silver top, but the x half of the X will be available with all black or coal.
Hands (good, hand)
The format “2-in-1” format allows you to adjust images for any number of creative reasons. This can be done in the camera (most of the examples below), if you want to put two things next to the camera, if you want to put two things next to the camera, it doesn’t have the application and then you can do it in most photo regulation program.
This is a wonderful little camera. A palm-handed device that fits your mobile when not in use. Walking around Downtown LA, half of the X, when I did not use me, half disappeared, hidden from the point of view, clinged to my hand. If I saw something interesting, I would be ready to go in these moments even if I turned off after the last shot. The selection of different film simulations was super easy. Slide only the secondary screen you need to do.
It’s like using a groove a surprising way to use half. Almost everything is gained by sliding and the cranes on the back screen. The only collections are for exposure and aperture. Personally, I love the dials in the cameras, but it’s easier to walk for people who are not used for bigger cameras and more. A transition to besides provides installed flash.
Side-by-side images are really a smart way to tell a story. For example, an image can approach one bunch, the other. Or both one subject, different angles, etc. Versions may be. Previously, I said I did not enjoy the challenges such as a film camera, but I had this kind of difficulty. I would find some interesting images and see if I could find the nearby appropriate or conflicting image. It was a different way to get close to the photography than I approached the photography (this word again).
There, decorated?
Can’t give the last judgment in the image quality because I am just a few hours with the camera. My initial impression is that it seemed worthy with a good color reproduction. The lower light was not excellent, but it seemed acceptable. The pictures you see at this look are not all united.
One of the internal filters also allows you to choose a color and break up others. Not a new notion, but it works well here.
Price, Availability and Who Can Be For It
The 2-in-1 created in Photoshop, otherwise consists of the camera.
X One-half undoubtedly for a certain demographic. If you don’t understand any small, vertical camera like this, there is no fear: you are not demos. I most likely described the camera to a friend who was demo, and he immediately asked and asked for one. Is it possible to do everything with your phone only x? Sure, but this belongs to any camera. The trick here can skip the edit process, plus the benefit of being not always on your phone. That’s attractive.
It is a concern, the price. Of the $ 850, it can be outside the budget of people who will enjoy the most. While testing the LA’s largest central market, one of the shop owners also showed interest. After describing it, he was really interested, but he asked, “Is this expensive?” I said the value of him and the disappointed answer was “Oh, expensive, expensive”. Everything these days are more expensive, but for a little more money, someone can buy Ricoh GR III, our current choice Best Point-and Mascara Travel CameraIt is a larger sensor and at the same time convenient.
However, neither GR III nor another camera currently has a “entertaining” factor of x. Is it worth the award? We will see when I try a little more after the end of June.
In addition to covering the cameras and showing technologically Geoff makes photo tours In the world, including cool museums and places nuclear submarines, Aircraft carriers, Medieval fortsepic 10,000 miles of road trips and more.
