Fujifilm X-T3 Mirrorless Digital Camera w/XF16-80mm Lens Kit - Black, X-T3 Camera w/XF16-80mm Lens Kit -Black

This is my first mirrorless camera and even though I've had it less than a week, I am blown away. I am a professional designer, musician and visual artist, and I used it for heavy filming in a 3-camera setup for two days following the day I received it (even though I didn't yet understand all of the settings!) and am very pleased with the results (I filmed 17 videos in two days and edited them all into a 30 min concert in Final Cut Pro X on the third day). The amount of settings/options is a bit overwhelming for a newbie, but there are a LOT of YouTube videos from seasoned pros available specifically for this camera model (XT3) so if you're new to it, just plan to spend some time watching videos. I opted for the XT3 over the XT4 for two key reasons - 1) I needed to be able to remove the door that covers the USB-C port and mic/headphone jacks as I often shoot from a fixed location and have external audio hooked up; the XT4 does not have the headphone jack, only the USB-C which I needed to supplement the battery; 2) I decided I could live with the OIS (stabilization) only being on the lens rather than the camera body. There is not a lot of difference between these two models otherwise.The seller shipped quickly and it actually arrived earlier than stated, however, my package was missing the North American adapter plug for the charger (which is really cheapy). It included the European one which doesn't help, but I had my own adapters that let me use it anyway. This wasn't the seller's fault - the package was shrink-wrapped by Fujifilm so they didn't know anything was missing.PROS- The "physical/analog" settings/dials on the top of the camera so you don't have to menu-dive all the time.- Solid, high-quality build and feel.- Amazing support from Fujifilm Canada in Ontario when I had a question (immediate email response after submitting a contact form on the website).- Gorgeous colour and plentiful options for auto or manual use in every mode; an excellent hybrid without needing two cameras to do my work.- Excellent programmable function keys.- Lots of not-too-expensive lenses available (when compared to some other brands)CONS- Battery life not amazing (but I am using a USB-C charger along with the in-camera battery to supplement when shooting in fixed location); expensive OEM batteries.- Tilt rather than flip-out screen (the XT4 has flip-out) which might be less practical for vloggers, but you could add a small mirror attachment on top (15$) or use a small monitor if you really needed this. I think the flip-out is also at risk of being broken off - the tilt on this one detaches on the left side, too, so it can be viewed from the side. Not a deal breaker for me.- For people with large hands and not accustomed to a modern, smaller 35mm, this size camera can make you feel a bit clumsy. I added a SmallRig L-bracket with wooden handle to allow me a better grip and the ability to add mic and other items if I like. It helps keep me from accidentally bumping the many dials and buttons.

Great APSC camera. The lens kit is very sharp. The package only includes the camera, its battery and the lens. Should you need them, you may have to buy in addition the EF-X8 flash and the battery charger.

Nice camera. Trouble free purchase. Very feature packed. Not for beginners.

I bought it solely for video. I've only take a couple of photos with is so far.I do love this camera.I set up the buttons the way I like. Now I rarely ever have to go into the menu.Feels so solid. Pro level build quality.And the image is awesome.I plan on shooting a feature length movie with this camera. I'm confident she's up to the task.

Excellent unit and surpassed my expectations. - There is a definite improvement in colour , slight but it is there and in blowup stands out. Got the 16-80 lens and excellent. The range makes a very good walk around lens and with the lightness, easy to carry. Highly recommend. I have been a Nikon user for over 50 years and was very pleased when Nikon lens can be moved over to the Fijifilm with the adaptor.
