Recently got an used Fuji X-T10 with a 18-55mm kit and this great little TTartisan 35mm. Now my full frame Canon with it's expensive L lenses sits in the closet.
Fujifilm is such a joy to use. And the TTartisan 35mm f1.4 is a surprisingly good lens.
Yes, Fujifilm cameras are such a joy to use!
crazy how now even this model is $300-$400
Crazy indeed. In Spain you can still find it with 200€.
@@AndreiDimaReviewswhere?
Mine 100$
@@yangho8 you’re lucky I haven’t been able to find one any cheaper than $300 US and most of them are in Japan or Thailand, or someplace like that. You have to wait weeks for them to arrive.
@@AndreiDimaReviewsunder your seat?
SOOC images are great from this camera, pretty Provia film sim. Very compact and lightweight, and I like to use the tilting screen. The lens I use is XF35mm f/1.4, AF is fine for me. By the way, unlike the X-Pro1 and X-E1, this one has a newer processor and also a Wi-Fi.
Underrated camera. Thank you for sharing!
Just recently purchased one. One top of Wifi and EXR II processor, it also have face detect. Only downside is it didn't get the extra film simulations and haven't been updated since 2017. But I love the size and face detect makes it easier to ask someone to take pics of you.
I bought mine a few years ago for EUR 200, including the 16-55mm lens that I didn't want. I then sold the lens for EUR 160 so I have this excellent camera (mint condition) for EUR 40! Now you'll be lucky if you find one for under EUR 300.
I like using it with either the fuji 27mm/2.8 or my Samyang 8mm/2.8. It's a lot of fun and the results are great.
Thanks for sharing! Sadly the price has gone up.
now you can sell it for 400
I popped a Russian turret viewfinder on mine (The optics on those are as clear as new glass) to jazz it up, and to use on bright days. All you really need is the 16-50 3.5 V.2 lens to keep the package small, light, but flexible. That lens improves in speed on later bodies, has a center sharpness as good as anything you have, and if you shoot square format, it's now perfect. Save your other lenses, vintage, or Fuji prime for the IBIS bodies. But don't forget, the 16-50 has IBIS. Just be sure to get V.2. Manual instead? The focus assist color options aren't as good as later models. Everybody usually uses the Fuji red color focus assist. Not available. You can use the back function button and some menu #4 to get the image zoomed in to help your focus, but I haven't put a manual lens on mine to tell you exactly how.
That's a nice setup!
I think the Tamron is better optically, it has less distortion at the wide end and looks slighty sharper. It has an extra 5mm, faster AF and has weather sealing (which isn't mentioned ;-) However, the Sigma looks better is smaller and the zoom ring is in the right place. Tough choice.
Did you want to comment on another video?
I have bought this model after looking at your review and some others I have oredered a fixed aperture pancake lens as well !
I hope you enjoy it!
Update currently at $700
That is sad news. The lens is still cheap.
this device is really great! the quality of the photos is wonderful
Glad you like it!
🙏🙏🙏Pleeeeaaaase tell me how to install new film simulations…I haven’t found ONE video wich shows me how to do it on the xm1 pleaseeeeee…or is there even a way to do this??
There are just a few recipes for the X-M1. This is a good one: fujixweekly.com/2021/01/20/fujifilm-x-m1-x-trans-i-film-simulation-recipe-classic-analog/
Also you can find a recipe here: lifeunintended.com/articles/my-favorite-fujifilm-film-simulation-settings/
I think the 16-50 is a fine match for this, and the X-M1's cute pocket camera macro setting. I have the setup but didn't know about the brightness option. I know it's in the menu of my T-2 body, where I can see everything with the lens wide open until I press the shutter button. Classic old school. I'm impressed that your manual lens also has this ability. Two things I learned. And yes, I imagine I can use all kinds of post Fuji color settings on It's raw pictures with Lightroom or Camera One software. Yeah, the 16 megs won't give you Ansel Adams prints, but tossing those and other low fi pocket Camera stills into Topaz and doing a screen grab on a big monitor (I'm still only using the demo version) can give you 30 megabyte photos. Once you learn how to take Topaz Photo AI.
With the new A.I. tools you can enhance 16 MP photos and print bigger. Off topic, I am currently testing the 15-45mm on the X-T5 and I cannot believe how sharp that lens is at 15mm.
I would have bought it immediately for the money 👍🏽👍🏽
Best buy ever.
It's a nice camera with a good sensor, but it's a bit annoying that you can't save different film simulation user settings. Using it with manual lenses does 'fix' the slower autofocus. It definitely is not worth the 300-400€ it's going for right now. I still got one recently for 200€ including a 16-50 lens, and a pretty scratched up body. I'm using it now with an FDn 50mm 1.4, but I'll be looking out for a wider manual focus prime, probably from TTartisan.
Nice combo! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the tips my friend
Any time!
What simulations do you recomand for this xm1? I still searching for somenthing for everyday shots. On my X-T3 i created by myself all 7, but here we dont have classic chrome base or eterna ^^
Hey, I like this one from Fuji X Weekly: fujixweekly.com/2021/01/20/fujifilm-x-m1-x-trans-i-film-simulation-recipe-classic-analog/
Nice review and Thanks
Thanks for watching!
As a result of all the videos extolling this camera, prices are currently around $350 US without lens.
Bad news.
Nice video! Interesting as always :) a good reminder for everyone out there that you don’t need a 50MP sensor to take good pictures. Just out of curiosity, where did you get yours? I’ve been looking for an X-M1 myself for some time but they’re hard to come across / way more expensive than what you mention. Any idea where I could start looking?
Thank you! I got mine from Wallapop, Spain. A good place to look for is MPB, if they dont have it in stock you should check weekly because this little camera is in high demand. On eBay prices are exaggerated, people there buy them from other markets and then try to make a profit. The normal price for this camera is 150.
@@AndreiDimaReviews agree. they're way overpriced on ebay.
I just got this camera and I love the size of it. I've tried a couple of recipes, but the output doesn't look so good like yours. I dug a little deeper and realized that the X-M1 has a unique oddity: it has a first generation X-Trans sensor, but a second generation image processor (EXR II processor). It seems like this camera compares to the X-Trans II with the JPGs. What's your experience? Did you have to tweak the recipes a little bit, or use the X-Trans II recipes? If so, can you share your settings for them? Thanks! 🙌😊
Hello, I don't have the camera anymore and I don't remember the exact settings. I used Velvia and played with the white balance settings, red and blue. I hope this helps.
I just got the M-1, and you're right, because the image processor is a second generation, any recipes you use should be used for the X-Trans II sensor--usually with a little tweaking here and there. They end up looking much better than any recipes for the X-Trans I.
@@brandonb.5304 Good to hear that. Feel free to share your favorite ones 😄
How would you focus manually with wide open, on direct sunglight? Can You see anything on LCD, let alone where the sharpness is?
You use the zone focus technique. That is why I paired the camera with that lens.
@@AndreiDimaReviews but it's still not too precise and it's based mainly on distance guessing.
Used this camera for about a month. The brightness of the LCD is more than enough for me. And if it "isn't", there is a temporary direct sunlight mode, where the screen just blow up the brightness by a lot, and everything will be overexposed, but we can tell what is in focus just fine with the help of peak focus outline.
What a neat camera! I was thinking of getting one until I realized it's about the same size as my Sony a6000 and that has a viewfinder. Oh well.
Amazing little setup :) I am kind of flirting with this idea but already have an X-T4 with the 18-55mm so I am trying not to buy more gear lol.
Thank you! I think we all flirt with the idea of buying new gear every day but some times is not a good idea😅
Great Review :). Does this camera have focus peaking?
Hello, yes but just with white color.
@@AndreiDimaReviews thanks, finally got the camera in my hands, can't believe how compact this is, amazing unit. If you don't mind, can you share the camera settings, such as sharpness, dynamic range,ext..?
Nice review
Thanks!
Hey there! This camera is no longer this cheap. I am considering paying near $500 - is that crazy? Probably! I am mad cuz I lost out on 2 cheaper A-X2's lately. But I am wondering if the autofocus is ok on this camera? Is the color of the X-trans 1 worth the money? I know, that is a personal question, but just wondered what you think. Thanks!
Honestly, consider a new Nikon Z30 instead. Here in the States, there's a deal for $656, and that includes the very good 16-50mm VR lens. Not the same "texture" as the Fuji, but better colors, ergonomics, menus, screen, battery and much better video specs.
What's the price of a X-E2? That would be a good option for the price.
@@gvs376 Thanks for the response! I will look into that Nikon. Thanks!
@@AndreiDimaReviews the X-E2 is at $600. I was able to pick up an X-T20 for the X-Trans II sensor. Trying to figure out if I really need an X-Trans I sensor. My choice would be between the X-M1 and the X-E1. They both are between $450 and 525. Crazy, right!
@@juligonzalez686
My pleasure. The price of a new Z30 just dropped to $606. That's body-only but the 16-50mm is cheap. You could also adapt many used vintage lenses, which are also very affordable. It's an excellent deal.
What did you use to shoot this video? would you share you LUT?
Hey, I used the Fujifilm X-T4 with the 18-55mm and it is graded with the Dehancer plugin, I made a video about it: th-cam.com/video/4AcImW3IOuI/w-d-xo.html
May I ask where did you find it so cheap? I'm trying to buy one and all I find is 350-400 dollars options
Check the date of the video.
i found this cam around 200-300$ should i get it ?
yes
I found a X-A3 that I can buy for 100. Do you think it’s a good buy?
At that price, yes.
Which is recipe you're using on this video?
I used Dehancer to edit this video.
Is there a way to use classic chrome on it?
No
Fuji cameras is more sophisticated than Canon's. I have one I am still learning...
Yes they are!
No focus peaking?
It has focus peaking.
X-Trans 1 cameras now cost around $400-$600 😢
Sorry to hear that!
where could be buy?
Second hand market.
X-M1 or an X-E2 for $100 more? I can't decide haha. I have an X-T2 as well
The X-E2.
@@AndreiDimaReviews haha well I ended up going with the X-M1 😝 Figured I can always find an X-E2 or X-E3 but a good condition X-M1 for cheap is harder to find these days
Either could I so purchased both and love them equally for different reasons.
What about X-A3 , can it shoot similar pictures? I am looking for a small camera that can shoot like film-looking pictures
More like $500.00 USD now..........
How can i change MF peaking color
There is just one color for peaking, white.
Very nice review...awesome... very loud and aggressive intro musicc arrrrrrrgh *
Thank you!
In Germany now 400-500€ 🤦
This camera goes for no less than $450 on the second hand market.
Sadly this model is now between 460 - 680 pounds and rising 2024.
Everything is expensive in 2024.
this camera costs $750 new and upwards of $400 used on ebay. stop kidding yourself.
