Fujifilm XF10 Digital Camera - Black

I used DSLR cameras many years ago - a decade ago to be precise - and abandoned them for the ease and convenience of mobile phones. Recently I'd started thinking about upgrading the quality of the images from and still keeping portability whilst not breaking the bank.The Pixel 5 images are great but don't hold a candle to the Xf10. The camera is also portable enough that it slips easily into and out of my jeans pockets so I'm able to take it everywhere I go. The Pixel 5 has been relegated to secondary place and I'm quite keen to see how long this lasts.It's not all rosy though. The auto focus requires a considered approach to use effectively. In fact do yourself a favour and stay away from SR+ mode and set the power performance mode to high. The focus is forever ... MoreI used DSLR cameras many years ago - a decade ago to be precise - and abandoned them for the ease and convenience of mobile phones.

The Pixel 5 has been relegated to secondary place and I'm quite keen to see how long this lasts.It's not all rosy though. The auto focus requires a considered approach to use effectively. In fact do yourself a favour and stay away from SR+ mode and set the power performance mode to high. The focus is forever hunting otherwise and it gets annoying fast. The other modes are so much quicker. I use it in the A and S modes mostly.Finally, the phone apps get a really bad rap on the stores which I think is a bit unfair. It's true that getting images from the camera to my phone is at times fiddly, but for the most part, it has been working once I turned everything on in the app and camera.On the whole it has been just two weeks now with the Xf10 and I'm loving every minute with it. Be prepared to put in the work and you'll be amazed at the results!

I bought this camera to carry all of the time. If youre in the market for this type of pocketable camera youll know that there are only a limited number which are in this league. This is probably one of the best value for money cameras in this group. The Fuji film simulations built into this camera make beautiful JPEG images. Its easy to use in auto mode or fully manual. I had researched this camera and read about occasional focusing issues. However I updated the firmware as soon as the camera arrived and I havent experienced any problems. An articulating screen would be useful, but I knew about this before purchase. Its possible to overcome this issue to an extent, by using the Fuji App to remotely view and trigger the camera. The amount of customisation allows ... MoreI bought this camera to carry all of the time.

The amount of customisation allows keen photographers to make creative images. For anyone new to photography, set it to auto and youll turn out great family and holiday photos every time. This camera is ideally suited to street photographers. Its also great for holidays and as a ready to use, daily carry camera.

Firstly, the images from this camera are excellent. To be clear, they are not as good as the Fujifilm X100, but this will cost you near enough 1,000 more. Undoubtedly, the high quality images are mostly down to the huge APS size sensor crammed into tis package. If you are a snap-shot taker, then this camera will do the job just nicely. More than nicely, in fact, as thanks to that big sensor, images taken in less than favourable lighting will come out way better than lesser cameras and phones with smaller sensors. If you are a hobbyist (or even a pro), then this camera has a place in your pocket too. A friend said to me that the best camera you own is the one that you have with you when you need to take "that shot", and this camera will fit in your jacket pocket, or ... MoreFirstly, the images from this camera are excellent.

A friend said to me that the best camera you own is the one that you have with you when you need to take "that shot", and this camera will fit in your jacket pocket, or even back jeans pocket so there's no excuse to not having a decent camera with you at all times. It doesn't take long to get the hand of some of the more in-depth features of this camera allowing for some really good photos to be snatched when the shot will have got missed otherwise. Incredible good value for money. Looks fantastic too! I'm very pleased.
