  • JPEG images are excellent and RAW pictures are stellar. Colour, sharpness and tonality are all outstanding. And there is a reassuring consistency to shots meaning that metering, auto white balance and auto focus are always spot on.
  • The zoom mechanism of the kit lens is stiff and gritty – it is inconsistent with the general construction quality of the camera
  • The Fujifilm X-M1 has strong competition. The Sony NEX cameras have similar specifications. The Samsung NX is a cheaper alternative but not up to the X-M1 image quality. The Sony NEX-6, for the same price as the Fujifilm, has a fine electronic viewfinder...

  • Thanks to the company's X-Trans sensor and good JPEG processing, the Fujifilm X-M1 delivers some of the best image quality we've seen for less than $1,000. The camera's also well designed and attractive
  • Poor video quality and a subpar Wi-Fi implementation prove annoying drawbacks
  • While it may not be the best overall camera available for less than $1,000, the Fujifilm X-M1 does deliver the best photo quality in its price class....

  • APSC sized sensor, Easy to use, WiFi and GPS support.
  • Not suited for motion shots, Expensive
  • This latest offering from Fujifilm is quite an interesting offering. However, at Rs 48,000, its asking price is a bit too steep. Instead, you can pick up the Canon EOS M for as little as Rs 32,000. If you can compromise on the sensor size, the Olympus EP...

  • With excellent image quality throughout the ISO range and some nice features too, the X-M1 has lots to like. But some nitty-gritty nuances here and there make it harder to fall in love with completely. If you can ignore those and want a camera solely to c...

  • The entrylevel Fujifilm XM1, I got to give it to Fujifilm. When they entered the mirrorless camera market, they entered in a way that piqued the interest of oldschool photographers yearning for a retro rangefinderlike camera digital body. Indeed, the laun
  • No viewfinder and no option for attachment, Tilting LCD would have been more functional if it was touch screen, Autofocus speed is just average, not as snappy as the other mirrorless offerings, No electronic level for a camera at this price point, Placeme
  • I like it that Fujifilm started on top with their pro line and trickled down the heart of their technology to a more consumer oriented camera like the Fujifilm X-M1. Yes, gone is the viewfinder (which really is a deal breaker for me as there are no option...
