Not a touchscreen, Limited digital filters, No viewfinder
Buying Guide Best compact system camera There's plenty to like about the Fuji X-M1, and it's good to see Fuji thinking about a more mass market audience by introducing a more affordable model. That said, this is only more affordable by Fuji's terms, so yo...

JPEG images are excellent and RAW pictures are stellar. Colour, sharpness and tonality are all outstanding. There is a reassuring consistency to shots, meaning that metering, auto white balance and autofocus 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 Sony NEX cameras have similar specifications; the Samsung NX is a cheaper alternative but not up to Fujifilm's X-M1 image quality; the Sony NEX-6, for the same price as the Fujifilm, has a fine electronic viewfinder built in. But then the X-M1 has one...

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....
Abstract: Easing more novice consumers into the advanced features, Fuji toes the line on the dial in offering both a scene recognition mode and simple automatic. More seasoned users will likely gravitate toward all the other modes, including the second dial on the ...
APS-C X-Trans CMOS sensor, Excellent stills, Good for both experienced and new users
Top video quality is only 1080/30p, Focusing not super fast, No remote control via app
Call us fans of new Fujifilm cameras such as the X-M1, especially those using variations of the X-Trans CMOS APS-C sensor. We really like the image quality – the photos are just plain good. Specific to our review sample, it has all the tweaks serious ph...
