What reviewers say
Both praise image quality, colour, low-light autofocus and robust construction, but find the hidden screen and fixed optical-viewfinder magnification restrictive. Photography Blog sees it as a niche choice worth trying before buying. Amateur Photographer enjoys composing through the viewfinder, yet finds menu access frustrating and considers a conventional X-T body more broadly useful. Both note that a tripod restricts screen movement.
