As a working photographer who spends or spent as the case is right now a great deal of time travelling shooting travel and action imagery my whole photographic career had been paved on Canon EOS cameras, right through from the first EOS film camera to whatever version of the 5D I was using at that time. The EOS series was the staple for many photographers for several years, and I was fully invested and reliant on it — for a good reason.
However, I also always had a smaller pocket camera with me on travels, especially when I was on a bike — a place I spend a great deal of time. I had since day one held onto the hope that there would one day be a small alternative to carrying around those burly and bulky DSLR back breakers. It was slow, and as fiddly as greased rat — and with the temperament to match. As much as I really wanted this to be the answer to my dreams, it simply was not. I could live with he fixed focal length, and even the grossly overpriced lens adaptor rings and hood, and when pampered to the images were superb.
Sadly I missed more images than I captured with it, and with no viable remote trigger option emerging on the aftermarket I soon lost faith in the whole ideal. This experience almost completely put me off the slowly emerging X Series for good.
None the less, having invested in it, the camera did still accompany me on some travels, and on slow days I did often leave the Canon in the room and just carried the Fuji around. After much contemplation I soon took another Fuji gamble — on the XE1 when it came out. This was the one that was to lead me deeper down the pathway marked with an X. Being a self confessed hoarder meant that I was unlikely to ever get around to selling them.
Also, shop Ebay not camera shops, as your prices are way high. These are averages depending in condition. I'm shopping for a T now in hopes that problem is better. I'm debating about selling my XT, but I should probably keep it. I never use my Pentax anymore unless I'm shooting something unusual I have a large collection of Pentax lenses. Thanks for all the replies guys! Appreciate it, guess I'll hold out for a bit and get the latest my wallet will allow haha definitely can't afford the F though Is it worth the hefty price tag?

Mar 30, Hi first time poster, long time lurker here I currently own a pentax k-3 with a fairly versatile set of lenses, but I'm always struggling to decide to carry it around with me because of the sheer size and weight, even with my 35mm limited on it.
Thanks a lot! Reply to thread Reply with quote Complain. Re: Which fujifilm X should I buy? Er, you're not looking hard enough. Reply Reply with quote Reply to thread Complain. Buy the most recent model you can afford. Yah what he said. But, if you can afford a newer model, you should do so. Jon Schick's gear list: Jon Schick's gear list.
I would also like to add to go for the T or the F. Les Lammers's gear list: Les Lammers's gear list. I also left Pentax for Fuji, definitely a trap. I agree that you should get the newest model you can afford. That's funny. It cost me a bomb so I decided to stick with it for a while. In recent years I have decided to make a conscious effort to buy fewer cameras and make mine last more, I get my hands on many cameras for reviews anyway so that satisfies my old gear obsession.
After all why would I replace it? If it still works fine and was so highly commended can it really not be so good today? Of course it is! At I find many cameras uninspiring. Please note I am in no way comparing the performance of the Sony and Fuji, they are worlds apart and things I can do with the A7RII which costs twice more cannot in any way be achieved with the Fuji. They are completely different cameras. Sure the Sony is going to produce far superior images. Well the good news is that the XV is a perfect everyday camera.
The camera you grab on the go, without further consideration as opposed to interchangeable lens cameras seemingly never having the right lens on as I try head somewhere. Strangely, I have missed owning a camera with a fixed lens, with no ability to zoom other than using my feet to step forward.
