The editors didn't like
Autofocus not fastest in class
No weather-sealed lenses (yet)
Single SD
So-so battery life
Viewfinder ghosting in dim light
Some tight button placement
The controls on the X-T1 are a mess. They go too far into analogue nostalgia at the expense of simplicity and speed. The EVF
While big
Is very noisy in low light
Narrow handgrip
Pricey if adding lenses
Cramped top-plate controls
Some of the controls are too hard to manipulate
Its general performance doesn't stand out
And the movie quality disappoints

For about $300 more than you'd spend on an X-E2, the Fujifilm X-T1 offers a significantly more comfortable shooting experience. Not only is your eye centered above the lens when using the EVF, but the EVF itself is much better, especially for bursts. The ...

Analogue dials and switches provide engaging shooting experience, Superb, huge high resolution electronic viewfinder gives generallyaccurate preview of image, Excellent image quality at both Low and High ISOs, Very attractive JPEG colour rendition, Consis
Rear buttons are small, and almost flush to camera body, Fourway controller is rather 'spongey' in feel, Awkwardly positioned, locking ISO dial is inconvenient (especially with large lenses), Raw files not recorded when ISO dial set to 'L', 'H1' and 'H2'
The X-T1 is probably Fujifilm's best camera to date, offering a compelling combination of intuitive handling, excellent image quality, and one of best electronic viewfinders we've seen. It also features one of the most impressive autofocus systems on any ...

Fairly expensive, $400 more than the X-E2
The Editor's Choice Award is an obvious one. The photo world has been abuzz with talk about the X-T1. It's got the right mix of vintage design and contemporary technology. Granted, the sensor is the same as the X-E2's, but that isn't a problem. The X-seri...
I could write pages more about the X-T1. It is a really fine camera indeed. Great built quality and lots of excellent features. Fuji’s lens line up is growing and most of their XF optics are quite excellent. If I owned an X-T1 I would be more than pleased to use it occasionally for some of my work...

Lack of touchscreen; Silver finish option would be good
