It is just fantastic. The pictures are sharp and beautiful. This is not a camera for a beginner but rather some one that wants to have fun being a more e sophisticated amateur photographer, although there is an automatic setting that works very well. The directions are good and the options are limitless. I also bought the very reasonable Fujinon Super EBC XC 50-230 which is amazing. I read other reviews to make this choice and they were very good and I am not disappointed. The camera is beautifully made . The view finder is very clear and easy to use and the screen is also perfect. The camera is light and easy to take everywhere. There are also some follow up photography classes that are very simple and fun. They just sent them automatically after I registered the camera. They come once a week and have different levels. This has reenergized my love for photography and its perfect for a pandemic activity. I was afraid of a mirrorless camera and now I’m a convert. Bargain!!!

Great camera and lens combo, very happy with purchase. Solid built and the lens is sharp. I love how much manual control there is without going into screen menus. The colors are beautiful straight from the camera without any adjustments.

Love this little camera. I upgraded from the Fujifilm X-E2S. I wanted the more pixel sensor plus the Acros film simulation. The long exposure capability was a bonus.

This is my second Fujifilm X-E3. I carelessly left my first on a bus to an airport and never got it back. Missed it so much I had to replace it. I got the kit with the 18-55mm lens and also bought the 55-200mm. The APS-C sensor provides 24.3 high quality megapixels. The glass is superb. The electronic viewfinder and LCD display are fast and smooth with no latency. The camera can be used as a point and shoot, but also has all the control features that a professional or advanced amateur might want. With the Fujifilm app on your smart phone or tablet, you can control the camera remotely or upload pix to your device via WiFi or Bluetooth. It may have a retro look, but this is a high-tech gem. It’s my favorite camera of all time.

Very pleased with this System, the fact that the controls can be configured in so many different ways, allows me to choose what controls I want where; so I don’t have to think! Just shoot. Fast, quiet AF and compactness make the XE-3 a dream. No more lugging 23 lb. camera bags, XE-3/ 16 mm 2.8/ 50mm 2/ and 2 flashes in a Domke F5xb for 5 lbs. Awesome !

Shooting for 23 years, I’ve used no single camera that does everything this little machine does. It feels great in the hands, focuses like a champ, has a ton of features - including Fuji’s famous film simulations - and above all else is a complete joy to use!

I’ve been a Fujifilm X series user for 10 years, and this camera, the XE-3, is a significant step up from my trusty XE-2. The image quality, ease of use, size and light weight make this the best travel camera for me. It can do everything I need, and the jpeg images with Fujifilm simulations are just fantastic right out of the camera. Next Best part? Adorama's great deal saved me $ on the camera and a 23mm lens. Simply awesome!

I have owned a number of Fuji's and the X-E3 is the newest model and I am very impressed with the resolution and the color. Fuji color science is really solid and I love this camera size as I can take it around easily compared to my larger cameras. I use a grip with arca swiss quick release to give it a bit more substance in the hand. Just a great camera all around. I also have the Godox small radio flash (2 aa batts) which makes this a very useful camera. Will be using for video which should be a nice camera for video.

Enjoying the X-E3. Lots of things it can do that I haven’t tried out yet. I like the compact size and weight and photos look great

If I only had one sentence, it would be "buy this camera!" The image quality is superb, the camera is solid, & the kit lens is incredibly good. Fuji needs to work out a better back-side system as it's way to easy to accidentally change settings (focus and others) by hitting the screen with your thumb or nose. But locking the screen settings helps. What you get for the money is incredible. It's not perfect, but it's ridiculously good for the price.

This is my first "good" camera that I've owned and I have has to for about a year now. I've shot with a point and shoot plus my iPhone for a long time, but finally reached the point where I felt that I wanted to upgrade. I'm really happy with my purchase. I agonized over what brand to buy for months before diving in... So much time researching and going back and forth and back again. I love the compactness of the camera and of Fuji's lenses. Every lens so far has been of magnificent quality. Very little lens distortion, even on the zoom lenses. I love how the colors appear. I love the simplicity of their lens selection--so far it has done everything I have wanted it to do. This camera also shoots beautiful 1080p and 4K video, which I am just beginning to experiment with.

Yes this is a great camera. I owned an XE2 for five years and decided to sell it and upgrade to the XE3. Almost the same, on the outside, it is slightly more compact, but still able to be used in the same way as the XE2 with all my great Fuji lenses (16mm, 35mm, 18mm). What blew me away is the automatic setting which detects what type of scene it is shooting, from a moving person to a green backyard to a portrait. It detects face and focuses quickly, and even without using a flash, it puts in fill light by brightening a darkly lit person standing next to a sunny background. I don't like the touchscreen in back, and learned you can deactivate it, which I did as I don't want my hand to brush past it and take a photo. For me, I just prefer the Q menu to choose my ISO, my film, etc. The new bluetooth is much faster than the one on the XE2 My old camera was beautifully accessorized with a Gordy leather strap and a Gariz case, which the latter sadly does not fit onto the XE3.

In my book, this is the perfect travel, street, and take it everywhere camera if you need pro- quality images in a small form factor. Add the out-of-this-world Fuji glass available for X bodies and even the pickiest photog will be happy.

Very impressed with the updates from the X-E2s. All the controls are very intuitive and layout is logical. I will probably use this camera most of the time. The jockey knob is super easy to navigate with. The only thing that would make this camera perfect is if it was weather sealed, but I just treat it like my old cameras—with care avoiding the worst.

I love this camera! I got it to replace my Nikon D3100. It's lighter weight and smaller profile is only the start of why I have no regrets. The 18-55 lens that came with the package is amazingly sharp. The overall image quality is so far superior that I cant stop diving deeper into the images. The enlargements will be tack sharp. Also the ease of use is outstanding! My very first camera was an Olympus OM-1 way back in 1979. I adored that camera and I am having flashbacks of the same adoration with my new Fujifilm X-E3.

Very compact with the same guts as the X-T2 (at least for what I need). The joysticks is a great addition (I've owned all previous X-En models).

Fujifilm cameras are my go to camera for traveling because of the size. This xe3 is awesome. Colors and images are phenomenal. It has a solid build. Not to crazy about the touch screen, so i disabled it. The joystick is ok. I still prefer the 4 way buttons from the previous models, but the joystick is great for moving the focus points. Battery life is what you'd expect for mirrorless cameras. I recomend you buy 1 or 2 spares. I made I highly recommend this camera.

X-E3 is a good buy!
By JOEL B.
Bought this camera two months before leaving on vacation. I have been Fuji-film convert several years. I packed away a ton of Nikon gear when the X-T1 came around. Adorama offered a modest accessory package and nominal discount on this E3 so I pulled the trigger. As an amateur picture maker over fifty years who stopped lugging equipment who still wants to bring along a reasonable kit I found that mirrorless helped solve me problem. The images out of this camera are excellent and I manually pr...

So far so good
By MICHAEL L.
I'm an amateur enthusiast and bought this to replace a Nikon D7200 and an Olympus XZ1. Very impressed with its capabilities and value for the money!
Fujifilm's new X-E3 mirrorless camera is the perfect travel or street shooting companion. Employing the new 24.3MP X-Trans CMOS III sensor and X Processor Pro engine, the X-E3 gives you fast, reliable performance so you can capture those fleeting moments you want to remember. New touch function controls let you swipe to set up your functions, even when you're looking through the viewfinder. Bluetooth v.4.0 controls let you quickly pair your camera to WiFi for ultimate wireless control. For vloggers and budding cinematographers, ultra HD 4K video offers the ability to create high quality videos that you can transfer easily to social media. The Fujifilm X-E3 delivers all the features you need in a compact, carry-around mirrorless camera.
Minimalism
The Fujifilm X-E3, built from the essence of minimalism, has been refined to maximize functional performance to its utmost limit.
This camera was created in the pursuit of minimalism, striving to stimulate the senses of the person wielding it, aiming to draw out the true intent of the photographer.
The simple and beautiful appearance pursued by the X-E Series has been fused together with innovative functions and an incredibly compact and lightweight design.
The Fujifilm X-E3 allows users to enjoy the ultimate level of photographic image quality that the X Series is known for while enjoying the way a camera is supposed to be.
Operation & Control Layout
Fujifilm redesigned the camera body of Fujifilm X-E2, released in November 2013, to create the most compact and lightweight model within the X Series interchangeable lens camera range, with a viewfinder. The form factor makes it a perfect companion for everyday use and travel photography.
Real Time EVF & Touchscreen LCD
The LCD monitor, on the back of the camera, uses a static touchscreen panel which supports the conventional "Touch Shot", "Touch AF" and "Focus Area Selection" capabilities. An all-new "Touch Function" feature will be available on the Fujifilm X-E3, which enables gesture control like flick and pinch zoom, to further enhance touchscreen operation.
Connectivity
This is the first X Series camera that offers Bluetooth capability. Pair it with your smartphone or tablet device, in advance of shooting, to easily transfer pictures you have taken to the smartphone or tablet device via the smart-device app "Fujifilm Camera Remote."
Focusing
The Fujifilm X-E3 features a large phase detection AF area and an updated algorithm to deliver a fastest AF speed of 0.06sec4.
Film Simulation
Incorporating knowledge developed from over 80 years of photographic film manufacturing, the Fujifilm X-E3's Film Simulation modes allow you to enjoy different color tones and rich gradations as if actually swapping films. A total of 15 modes are available, including PROVIA and Velvia to reproduce vibrant colors, plus ACROS for fine-detailed monochrome images. The Grain Effect function can be combined with all Film Simulation modes to add a textured look and deliver a greater range of artistic effects.
Functions
The Fujifilm X-E3 is capable of recording both Full HD and 4K video using the X Series' famous Film Simulation modes. You can output recorded video to an external monitor, via the HDMI port, and input audio from an external microphone.
System
Our XF lens line-up now features 25 lenses. The current line-up of lenses range from ultra-wide-angle to super-telephoto and includes five fast aperture prime lenses. These lenses bring out the very best image quality from the X-E3. Optional accessories such as mount adapters and macro extension tubes further broaden photographic potential.
