Fujifilm X-M1 Camera - Black (16.3MP, 16-50mm Lens Kit) 3 inch LCD

Product Information

Let’s take a look at how the Fuji X-M1 performs at low ISOs. Here are some crops at ISO 100 (boost), 200, 400 and 800: When it comes to dynamic range, from what I can tell from the JPEG images, the new X-Trans CMOS sensor seems to deliver good dynamic range in photographs at even high ISO levels. It is no Nikon D800, but you can still recover plenty of details from the shadow areas without adding too much noise. I have been waiting for test results from DxOMark, but they have not released any information on any of the new Fuji mirrorless cameras with the X-Trans sensor, probably due to RAW file support issues.

For me, having a standard hotshoe is a big plus, since I do flash photography quite a bit. Here are some sample images taken with external flashes and off-camera flashes using the X-M1: X-M1 + XF14mmF2.8 R @ 14mm, ISO 200, 1/125, f/5.6 X-M1 + Touit 2.8/12 @ 12mm, ISO 1600, 1/40, f/2.8 Dynamic Range

While the Fuji X-M1 does not have a sophisticated meter as the latest generation Nikon and Canon cameras, it actually works surprisingly well in most situations. The camera does have a tendency to overexpose and underexpose in unusual lighting situations, but that happens even with advanced DSLRs, so it is not anything unusual. Gladly, you can easily tweak the exposure by using the unlabeled dial on the top of the camera, which functions like exposure compensation when using the camera in Aperture Priority or Shutter Priority modes. X-M1 + XC16-50mmF3.5-5.6 OIS @ 26.9mm, ISO 200, 1/400, f/8.0 There are quite a few plastic buttons and controls on the X-M1, most notably the memory card / battery compartment door and the flap for the HDMI port, both of which wouldn't look or feel out of place on a cheap compact, and the rear controls, especially the second thumb-operated control dial. Otherwise the X-M1 is very well constructed. Considering this is the entry-level model, it’s still pretty expensive – other CSCs are available for half the price (a cheaper X-A1 model is widely rumoured but not yet announced as we go to press). However, various features position it closer to mid-range models in other ranges. There’s a hotshoe for an external flashgun, plus integrated Wi-Fi for transfers to iOS and Android devices. The articulated screen, dedicated mode dial and dual command dials also distinguish it from many cheaper rivals.

The X-M1's rear LCD screen attempts to redress the balance by offering the ability to tilt it up or down from a high 85° angle to a low 90° angle, perfect for both overhead and low-down shooting. With a resolution of 920K dots, it's twice as detailed as the screen on the X-E1, but sometimes proved to be a little hard to see in the unusually bright British sunlight that we predominantly tested the camera in.

Similar to other X series cameras, the X-M1 is not designed to be a weather-proof camera, and I would not expect it to be. Since other manufacturers like Olympus are pretty successful at making their camera bodies weather resistant, I hope it is a matter of time until Fuji starts doing the same. If you are too worried about shooting in extreme conditions, the Fuji X-M1 is probably not for you. X-M1 + XC16-50mmF3.5-5.6 OIS @ 16mm, ISO 400, 1/1800, f/5.6 JPEG output on ISO levels 400 and 800 looks as clean as ISO 200. High ISO Performance (ISO 1600-6400) – JPEG Fuji announced a pair of lenses at the same time as the X-M1. One is a standard zoom that will be sold as a kit with the X-M1, while the other is a pancake prime. Let's take a closer look at each: New kit zoom - XC 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 OISAlso, I know that some people complain about framing through the LCD during daytime conditions when it is very bright. I have used the X-M1 during my landscape workshop when it was very sunny and also used it for other projects outdoors and I can tell you that the LCD is very bright, so there are really no concerns there. The biggest thing you need to be comfortable with is looking at the LCD for framing / composing shots. The good news is, in situations where I did need to use the LCD (such as photographing people on the dance floor during a wedding), I loved the ability to tilt the screen. So the tilt screen is definitely a very useful feature and the 3″ display with 920K dots makes images appear very crisp and beautiful. I would love to see Fuji implement a tilt screen in addition to a high-resolution EVF in the future versions of their higher-end X series cameras, similar to what my Olympus OM-D E-M5 offers.

The Fuji X-M1 comes with a built-in WiFi antenna, the first in X-series line of cameras. While it is great that you can save your pictures to your computer, upload images to your smartphone/tablet, look through the images on the camera or even Geotag your images, there is no way to control the camera through Fuji’s provided camera app. That’s very unfortunate because I expected this feature to be available when I first heard of the WiFi capabilities of the camera. As a result, I did not play much with the WiFi features of this camera or the app. High ISO performance is a very important measure of sensor quality for low-light photography. Here is how the Fuji X-M1 performs at high ISO levels between ISO 1600 and 6400: Fuji X-M1 has two extra ISO “boost” levels – ISO 12800 and ISO 25600 for extreme situations. Take a look at these: Still image JPEG (Exif Ver 2.3) *2 / RAW (RAF format) / RAW+JPEG (Design rule for Camera File system compliant / DPOF-compatible) Movie Movie File Format: MOVThe Fujifilm X-M1 mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera was released on June 24, 2013 together with the Fujinon XC 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS lens. After the success of the X series cameras including the X100, X-Pro1 and X-E1, Fuji decided to expand the line of interchangeable lens mirrorless cameras by introducing a more affordable mid-range version, the X-M1. While the X-Pro1 and X-E1 are targeted at professionals, enthusiasts and serious amateurs, the X-M1 is designed to attract a broader audience. Despite its significantly lower price on launch, the Fujifilm X-M1 is another well-built X-series camera, with very little no flex or movement in its chassis, despite having more plastic in its construction. Iit's actually much lighter than a first glance might suggest, weighing in at 330g body only with the battery and memory card fitted, although that's only 20g lighter than the X-E1. Measuring 116.9mm (W) x 66.5mm (H) x 39.0mm (D), it is quite a lot smaller though. We noticed some odd behaviour during our tests. At one point the camera complained that it had run out of numbers to assign to photos, and refused to take any more until we reset the numbering system. We’re told by Fujifilm that this is to avoid having photos with duplicate file names, but stopping taking photos altogether doesn’t seem like a practical solution. Why not just use longer file names? Another problem was that adjusting the zoom sometimes caused the screen to go blank for about a second. We eventually narrowed this down to a small amount of movement between the lens and camera – simply twisting the lens barrel (rather than the zoom ring) had the same effect. We’re assured that this fault hasn’t been seen on other X-M1s and would be covered by the warranty. Here is an illustration of a traditional bayer pattern color filter array compared to the new Fuji color filter array:

Fuji has done a great job with the X lens line, first introducing prime lenses and then following up with some zooms later. This basically showed that Fuji’s target market was professionals and enthusiasts that were looking for a serious mirrorless system. I had the pleasure of shooting with all three initially launched lenses and I have recently received every Fuji lens for proper testing. In addition, I have also been shooting with the new Zeiss Touit lenses (a number of newly uploaded images in this review are from the Zeiss lenses). So far, my experience has been very positive on the entire line of Fuji and Zeiss lenses.

Take a look at the following comparison: NIKON D3S @ 50mm, ISO 400, 1/100, f/4.0The X-M1's movie mode is similar to that of the X-E1, with the ability to record 1080/30p video with stereo sound and continuous autofocus. The dedicated movie recording button makes it easy to start taking a video in any shooting mode. While you don't have full manual control when recording videos, the aperture can be adjusted priority to shooting in 'A' or 'M' mode. Video quality is decent, though don't be surprised if moiré or rolling shutter effects make an appearance. Performance and Photo Quality
