Fujifilm X-A1 Kit with 16-50mm Lens (Black)

Direct Controls (2 command dials, many direct access buttons, Q menu)

Image Quality (well proven 16.3 MP sensor used in many cameras)

Features (ISO Hotshoe, built in flash, delivers most of what an X Pro1 will for image quality)

Included lens is very good stopped down 1 stop across the range. This makes it a great general carry lens.

Wi-Fi features (Geotagging, transfer photos, etc)

Plastic build (lens is all plastic with plastic mount, body on camera is all plastic, still well built, just cheap materials)

No touch screen (makes changing camera settings and focus points much easier)

No option for viewfinder

No charging over USB like most competitors (but thankfully it still includes AC battery charger unlike most competitors).

Features: Lots of great features on this camera. This hotshoe can be used to fire generic flash triggers and also Fuji flashes. The built in flash can be used as a bounce flash in small rooms. This requires setting the ISO at 3200 or 6400 only because the flash is pretty weak, but it really gives images the more professional bounce flash look (direct flash gives the deer in headlights look and shadows on the wall behind).

Review

I have owned the Fuji X Pro1 and many other mirrorless and SLR cameras. I shoot some paid and many volunteer events including weddings, portraits, and general photography. I do formal lens reviews for fun.

First Impressions : Coming from the X-Pro1 this camera feels cheap, but control layout is similar and is easy to switch between the two. I don't like the all plastic build of lens and camera, but the body still feels sturdy
