Great all round camera. Couple of niggles for live streamers and vloggers.

Great product generally. Feature rich. Takes great pictures and video. Nice, fast autofcous. Love the retro styling.

If you're planning to use this camera for live streaming, vlogging or long video shoots, there are three annoying problems I've found:
1. Fuji have not left enough space between the micro HDMI and USB-C ports to have both a USB-C and micro HDMI cable plugged in at the same time. You have to cut away the connector casing of one of your cables (in my case, the USB-C cable) to fit both in.

2. You can't charge the camera via USB when it's turned on, only when it's turned off. This is a problem if you're using the camera for Web streaming or long video shoots. To work around this you have to buy a dummy battery which allows you to power the camera from an external source (the CP-W126 battery coupler for NP-W126) does the trick. I bought a cheap one off ebay.

3. The flip up screen doesn't flip through 180 degrees. So If you're trying to shoot a selfie, you can't see what you're shooting. Or in a home studio context, where the camera is on a boom arm, you can't the menus easily without disturbing the position of the camera.Read full review
