Focus improvement light map fuji micro-single X-T 10 trial.

IT 168？ Evaluation in may this year, fuji released a new portable X-T 10 camera. At the press conference, Fuji executives repeatedly improved this camera. The biggest improvement is mainly reflected in two aspects: first, it makes the operation easier, and even novices don't have to spend a lot of time getting familiar with the operation. Second, the focusing system has been greatly improved. 49-point single-point mode and 77-point area tracking can make the shooting success rate go up a step. Some people think it is the best interchangeable lens mirrorless camera in Fuji at present, so I tried it.

Starting from the series of advertisements of Fuji Wave Shooting Stream, it is not difficult to see Fuji's determination to focus on street photography and retro feelings. Friends who like street shooting know that excellent handling and powerful performance are the key to improve the film production rate. The perfect handling performance of Fuji X-T 1 left a very good impression on the public. In addition, Fuji's current X-mount lens is perfect, but the fly in the ointment is that the focus is slightly poor, which is also a place that many photographers can't let go. At present, the price of XT- 10 with XC 16-50 lens is 4999 yuan. Click to view the details, which is much cheaper than the corresponding collocation of X-T 1. It doesn't hurt for a friend you like to start right away.

The appearance of X-T 10 has at least given a shot in the arm to photographers who have been hesitant about Fuji's focusing performance. The new focusing system provides six different autofocus modes. With the adoption of dual CPU and the improvement of computing performance, the processing speed is doubled and the shutter delay is shortened to 0.05 seconds.

As early as the X-T 10 Shanghai conference, I captured a light dancer for the first time with X-T 10. At that time, the focus was on cleanliness and capture.

After using X-T 10 for a period of time, the author found that the feeling that X-T 10 greatly improved the focus became more and more obvious. 77-point focusing combined with appropriate focusing mode can greatly improve the shooting success rate, which is obviously different from the previous Fuji camera.

Some photographers often spit out Fuji's pixels. X-T 10 remains at the level of160,000. Recently, the pixel war has intensified. In SLR, Canon's 50.6 million effective pixels are dominant, and Sony A7R2' s 42.4 million pixels in mirrorless cameras are amazing. Although Fuji's16 megapixel X-TRANS CMOSII performs well, its limitations are objective after all. Fortunately, the positioning of Fuji camera is not a commercial user who needs to print large-size photos frequently, so this is a matter of opinion.

In order to facilitate more novice users to operate the camera, X-T 10 has also made many changes in maneuverability. Auto mode has been added to the top right of the camera. If novice users do not have the ability to fully control the camera, they can shoot in automatic mode. At this time, the camera will choose the most suitable shooting mode from 58 preset scenes to ensure that novices can get very good picture quality.

X-T 10' s top cover is higher than X-T 1, and the whole fuselage is smaller than X-T 1. The weight of the fuselage is 38 1g, which is much lighter than X-T 1(440g). As the camera and the front of the whole machine are provided with protruding handles,

X-T 10 is equipped with a 3-inch 920,000-pixel foldable LCD screen on the back. This is the current mainstream configuration, and the display effect is clear and natural. However, the foldable screen cannot be folded 180, so users who like to take selfies may be slightly disappointed. In addition, X-T 10 is equipped with a 2.36 million pixel organic light-emitting diode electronic viewfinder, which is convenient for framing under strong light.

Fuji's X-TRANS CMOSII has always performed well. Although X-T 10 still remains at the level of160,000 pixels, high resolution is the characteristic of Fuji. Excellent XF lens, no matter how small things are, the details can be displayed incisively and vividly.

Rich color patterns are another advantage of Fuji. Fujifilm has decades of manufacturing experience, unparalleled color reproduction and ultra-wide dynamic range. Compared with other brands of cameras, the color of Fuji camera is more pleasing.

Manipulation is almost the only place where I don't bother too much. As long as you are familiar with Fuji camera, you will not be too unfamiliar with the operation of X-T 10. The design of double dial wheel is convenient and quick to adjust, and the commonly used parameter options are integrated in the button Q on the back. In this respect, X-T 10 and flagship X-T 1 are excellent.

As for the positioning of X-T 10, some people think it is a simplified version of X-T 1, but I think it is more like a portable version of X-T 1, which is more suitable for beginners. Unlike the previous one, which only targeted at a specific group of people, X-T 10 is suitable for almost everyone, whether it is a professional photographer or a novice user. The only drawback may be that CMOS is not the size of Quan Huafu, but its size is much smaller than that of a full-frame camera. Even APS-C CMOS is enough to record common scenes in daily life.

▲ aperture F2.8? Shutter speed 1/300 seconds? ISO 640？ The focal length is 28mm

Generally speaking, X-T 10 is a very sincere camera. First of all, many details show that X-T 10 does not want to be a simplified version of X-T 1. For example, it has the most perfect focusing system in Fuji, with solid materials and workmanship, and is optimized for novice users. At the same time it is smaller and lighter. Advantages: X-T 10 inherits the fine tradition of Fuji camera: outstanding color, high resolution and high face value. Slightly insufficient is that only 6.5438+0.6 million pixels can't keep up with the trend of the times. If it can reach 20 million pixels, it will be more convincing. Although not everyone needs 20 million pixels, it is psychological comfort for more novice users. Compared with X-T 1, I personally think that X-T 10 is more worth buying.
