Update: I have replaced the Fuji XT1 (v1) with the newly released Xt1 Graphite Silver Edition.

I took it out for a spin in the streets of Melbourne for a night shoot and also to shoot a wedding. More low light / hi-ISO here: https://www.afterraw.com/fuji-xt1-graphite-silver-edition-heart-of-spades/

 

As long as I can remember, my first Fuji digital camera was the Porsche designed Finepix 4800 then the Finepix 6800. And I loved them.

I always had a look out for new Fuji cameras and although I like the line of the X series, shooting Leica myself, I couldn’t see the need to have them.

When Fuji announced the XT1, I had to chimp in a read the specs.

On the paper, it looks really good, how would it suit me for my work and style of shooting is another story.

So far, I have used this camera on a real life assignments and am waiting for some glasses to be delivered so I can put the thing in use.

Check back often as the Fujinon 56mm f/1.2 is to be delivered anytime next Monday.

Below are some quick iPhone snaps of the object.
