I started off with a 5 star review, but after owning it for a little less than a month had to down grade it. Read review to find out why.3/11/2014Build:Very solid build. The entire camera including the kit lens have a very pro feel to them. The dials seem very tight. Actually the exposure comp dial is a little too tight. I wanted a tight dial on the x100s because it turns easily when i put it in my pocket, but this is not a pocket camera and does not need such a tight dial. Same goes for the on off switch. It does add to a general feeling of quality, but may become a problem when you're trying to quickly change settings on the fly. The other thing which I think could have been better is the ISO dial. The lock engages as you turn the wheel so you have to hold it down. This makes it more difficult than it has to be. It could have been a press to lock, press to unlock type button. This would have given security and ease of use. maybe the x-t2 will have this. =)Build Update 4/3/2014I just downgraded the camera because of a build issue. I have discovered that the little door covering the HDMI port has some "give" to it. This is because it is part plastic part rubber. This allows it to bend a little leaving some space between the door and the camera. This means it is not really well sealed and therefore definately NOT weather resistant. It also leads to the door unintentionally opening if you scrape it with your finger. I could put a piece of tape over it and live with it and feel I may have to do just that, but I don't feel I should have to do that on a $1700 camera. I would expect to see this on a $300 not a $1700 camera. I feel that this is a huge flaw and can't believe Fuji released a camera with this issue. Otherwise I really really like the camera. I reached out to Cardinal Camera (the third party seller I bought it from) to see if they can help. I am already past their 15 day return policy so my expectations are low, but I still hope that they do something. If they take it back I will most likely buy the OMD E-M1 instead. This is really dissapointing because other than this I really liked the camera.A little more about Cardinal Camera. This is the third party vendor i bought it from. If I was to do it again I would not have bought it from them, but instead waited until Amazon had it in stock. I reached out to them with some concerns and have not heard back. I was out of their 15 day return policy, but at least they could have responded. Instead they did not even acknowledge the messages i sent them. So I will avoid them in the future and suggest to everyone they do the same. Also their return policy is a bit short especially compared to Amazon.Handling:The grip is nice and adds a much needed support, although it should have been bigger. I will be adding the additional hand grip... not the battery grip just the extra grip.There have been many reviews complaining about the recessed buttons on the back of the camera. I guess I see what they mean but it really isn't that bad. I don't think i would have noticed it if i did not read those reviews. More importantly though IT DOES NOT MATTER. I never have to touch them except when I'm learning about the camera and setting it up for the first time. After that I never have to go into the menu again. That is the real beauty of this camera. Everything is a physical dial or switch away.The back command dial should be programmable to control something... for example ISO. The front one controls shutter, but only in increments right around where your shutter dial is set. It should cover the entire range.AF & General Speed:The camera is fast. Very fast. From turning it on putting it up to your eye and snapping 8 pictures a second with continuous AF. it is all very smooth. AF seems much better than the one in the x100s. Much faster and the continuous AF is great. The x100s continuous AF was useless. The x-t1 focuses fast even in low light. I had a few chances to use the continuous AF with the Continuous High speed shooting of my kids running or riding bicycles outside. The results were awesome. I could not have gotten such results from a Nikon D90 or the D7000.EVF:The EVF is nice, but to be honest i did not notice a huge difference from the one in the x100s. I'm sure my opinion here will change as I live with it for a while though.Other Notes:The batteries for this are different than the ones in the x100s. That was a disappointment for me, but considering all of the extra features in this camera it needs a bigger battery. Since they already changed the battery I wish they would have made it even bigger and allowed the camera to take 500+ shots on it. I will report more on battery life in the near future.Tilt Screen:I have always been of the opinion that real cameras don't need tilt screens. I was wrong. I have been able to capture pictures from perspectives which I otherwise would never have been able to shoot without it. An example of this is putting the camera almost on the ground and using the continuous AF and continuous high speed drive mode to get awesome shoots of my son riding his bike through a puddle. The tilt screen made it possible and even in full sun i was able to use it this way.WifiI have to say that the wifi connection to the phone is very cool. It works flawlessly and is fast. I hope fuji allows long exposures (more than 30 seconds) from this app so that we do not have to buy a separate remote for long exposure photography. If they could add something that could help with metering for long exposures that would be awesome as well.Update 3/18/2014I have done extensive tests of the light leak issue. Looks like my camera is not affected.
