Fujifilm X-E3: 24Mpixel APS-C sensor and touch controls for the heir of the X-E2S mirrorless
Renewal of Fujifilm range: comes the heir of the mirrorless X-E2S and takes the name of X-E3, bringing in dowry a new sensor always APS-C with higher resolution, touch controls and other news that we’re going to expose you.
There are many innovations presented by Fujifilm, and we will start by describing the new mirrorless X-E3, called to replace the X-E2S model presented in 2016 which in turn was an update of the X-E2.
The new camera brings several improvements, starting from the sensor: we are talking about a 24.3 MPixel X-Trans APS-C, while the previous models were 16 Mpixels.
Fujifilm X-E3 is able to film in 4K / 30p and full HD 60p, while really appreciable is to have drawn heavily on the hardware front from the model X-T20, such as taking advantage of the 325-point autofocus system.
Also new is the tracking algorithm, which can greatly improve the attachment of small moving objects. On the connectivity front we find Wi-Fi and low-power Bluetooth, in order to interface with the smartphone without consuming too much battery.
The basic sensitivity ranges from ISO 200 to ISO 12800, which can be expanded up to ISO 100 downwards and ISO 51200 upwards. The mechanical shutter guarantees shots up to 1/4000s, while the electronic shutter can go up to 1/32000s. Still with electronic viewfinder the continuous shooting can reach up to 14fps, reaching up to 35 .jpeg or 22/21 RAW approximately consecutive.
The electronic color viewfinder is a 0.39″ OLED, about 2,360,000 pixels and guarantees a coverage of almost 100%. The rear display is fixed, a 3-inch by about a million pixels, despite being touch from which you can set different shooting parameters.
The weight is 337 grams including battery and memory card, which obviously must be added to the weight of the lens mounted Fujifilm X-E3 loses the directional navigation buttons on the previous models, the whose functions are now charged with touch controls on the rear display, and there is also a joystick for the AF control.
It should also be noted that a small external flash is provided (there is not one integrated in the body), model EF-X8 and with guide number 8. Prices and suggested at the public: X-E3 body only to $899.
