Fujifilm X-E3 Hands On Review: Mini Fuji X Pro 2 & It's BIGGEST Flaw!

  • I give a full hands on review of the Fujifilm X-E3. This mirrorless camera is a huge deal because of what features it offers for its price point of around $1,150 USD. For hundred of dollars more you can snag an Fuji X-T2 or X Pro 2. Personally I own the X Pro 2 and was very curious if I could save money and buy this Fujifilm X-E3. Even though I enjoyed all of the time I spent with this camera thanks to BHPhoto for sending it over, I still feel I'll keep the X Pro 2 and it mainly comes down to the screen softness flaw. That bothered me a little and a few friends who use and own the camera. But the savings may be super worth it to you. So check it out at the link below. If you want a compact, decentish, 4K camera and one that has outstanding image quality, check out this Fuji X-E3

    When you said it gets jittery between shots. It’s just the power saving mode reducing frame rate. This can be toggled in the settings.

    • @FiratSekerliMBA
      @FiratSekerliMBA 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      My power saving setting is off but it still does when viewing the shots.

    I just bought the X E3, I own the X-T2 and X100F and I must say the XE3 is an auto focus beast. It’s faster than the X-T2. I played around for a couple hours with the touchscreen and then turned it off, it’s not for me. But the camera is awesome!

    I'm switching from the XT10. I'm still not sure if I want the XE3 or the XT20. I'm kinda leaning towards the XE3 over because it's lighter and smaller.

    • @Eric_Rossi
      @Eric_Rossi  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      personally, i like the versatility of the x-e3. That being said, the xt 20 is a popular camera.

    I thought you can turn off the touch screen when in EVF mode. This way you can still use the touch screen functions.

  • @henrysiegertsz8204
    @henrysiegertsz8204 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I had the X-Pro1 and an X-M1. I loved the X-pro1 shooting experience, but found it just too big to take in a jacket pocket, so i bought the X-E3 which by the time I got mine there must have been a few firmware upgrades to improve review, as I don't find the screen a problem. I just love Fuji cameras though. Thanks for a nice little review.

    Hey. Which camera would you recommend - Ricoh GR II or Fuji XE3. I care about good quality photos and not about making movies. Thanks.

    • @Eric_Rossi
      @Eric_Rossi  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Its a tough call, all depends on the features you want and your budget. But the gr ii is falling a bit behind now it needs an update. I'd go with the Xe3 at this point. You can change the lens and its much faster.

  • @77edwilson
    @77edwilson 5 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    If you are left eye dominant, never get a rangefinder style camera. It will only cause you heartache. Besides, it kinda defeats the purpose of the style (can't see anything coming into frame). Get an x-t20.

    • @colnagocowboy

    • @robjackson606
      @robjackson606 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Eric Wilson I can definitely see that but I’m left eye dominant and have loved my XE1 for years. I’m sure that will lead to issues with my upgrade to an XE3 or newer, but I love that body style too much to go with an XT30

  • @cameraman655
    @cameraman655 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love the XE series, great “walk-around’ rigs. I currently use my XE-2s as my “street shooter” and the X-Pro2 for more serious work in addition to my X-T2. While I would love to see a future XE- with dual card slots and weather resistance, I highly doubt that Fuji would produce such a camera that would no doubt cannibalize X-Pro sales

      yes, you can set it to have both on with the sensor, just the evf or just the lcd

    Hey Eric, great review. I already have nikon 5300 and planning to buy another one for traveling. I can’t decide between sony a6300 and fuji xe3. I also shoot them in raw and I’ve been watching many reviews but I stillI dont really know which camera has overall better image quality. Need help!!!

      Id probably go the a6300 for that matter but both are very similar. You will like the feel of one over the other and the menu system etc.

  • @ajayonline
    @ajayonline 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Eric, I put a screen protector on the screen, and it's even worse now with the screen being blurry! I can't tell if any shots are in focus. But the shots come out in focus when imported into the computer.

  • @fabrifornasiero
    @fabrifornasiero 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think personally i would consider a used X-Pro 2 body, right now they are about 1200 euros: do you think the extra money is worth it? (i think in the review you said "yes" but i didn't understand if you were talking about selling yours or buying one, sorry if i misunderstood)

    • @Eric_Rossi
      @Eric_Rossi  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah so I think its worth the extra money for the X Pro 2. The screen is an issue for me, but I know that may not matter to others. Personally, I'd take the x pro 2.

    • @afinacionymovimiento
      @afinacionymovimiento 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Joe East hi Joe, I’m super late to the game but in case you’re still struggling with the de files you can always use Adobe dng converter and it will convert your Fuji files into a dang format which Lightroom will accept if you’re using an older version of Lightroom. I’m using Lightroom 4 so this the extra step I take when using more modern cameras.

  • @AndersBjornTH
    @AndersBjornTH 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Like me, it looks like you are left eye dominant when looking through the EVF. In addition to inadvertently moving around the AF point, there is also the issue of smudging the screen and having to clean it constantly.

So I slays had my evf come on whenever I put my eye to it and never the screen. This would be a major issue with my if it doesn’t have that option.

    I notice you looked through the camera's viewfinder with your left eye that was why your nose would hit the screen in resault of changing the auto focus point by accident, because of that I guess you're left handed. People would touch their nose to the screen when it is a typical DSLR viewfinder position setup
