Fujifilm X-E1 Body Black Digital Camera
Fujifilm X-E1 Body the baby brother to the X-Pro1 compact system camera, but in many ways is its equal. With the same impressive 16.3MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS sensor as the flagship model. The X-E1 also does away with a low-pass filter and produces images with great detail and resolution.
- The X-E1 is in essence a slimmed-down X-Pro1
- 6 frames per second continuous shooting.
- ,Electronic viewfinder with 2,360,000 dots.
The X-E1 gets a few new features relative to the X-Pro1, commensurate with its class. Notably, there's a little built-in pop-up flash, a 2.5mm stereo microphone socket for movie recording, and the ability to use an electronic shutter release cable., complex and expensive hybrid finder replaced by a purely-electronic viewfinder. Not any old EVF though - it uses a 2.36M dot OLED unit, out-speccing the X-Pro1's 1.44M dot LCD finder. In return its rear screen is slightly downgraded in terms of both size and resolution, to a still-respectable 2.8" 460k dot LCD - according to Fujifilm this is necessary to keep the camera's size down. The result is a compact body that's broadly similar in size to both the much-loved FinePix X100, and its most obvious competitors like the E-M5 and NEX-7.
