Luminous Landscape's Nick Devlin traipsed around the dry, warm deserty part of the USA with a brand-new X-T1 and came back with some great images, and a helpful review. Like me, the man generally venerates the camera- with a few small niggles. In the main, those are the poorly-designed four-way control, and menu inconsistencies:
“While the X-T1 is really an excellent camera, and one most photographers could use happily for many years, it is not perfect. Predictably, my quibbles lie with the rear-mounted controls and the menu system. I still dislike the four-way controller. It is small, cramped, plasticky and accesses useless controls. White Balance? Really? Who on earth bothers with in-camera WB on a camera like this. Fuji has listened to a lot of feedback on this, and now allows the buttons on the four-way to be custom configured to access a number of key controls. As well, two buttons on the front and top of the camera may be assigned custom functions – a huge improvement.”
If you are considering purchasing the X-T1, Nick's review of it is worth the 10 minutes it takes to read.
