Fujifilm X-T2 Body Only Black

I'll spare you the spec and indepth review as there are plenty valuable sources to extract such info.I started with an X100 years ago and loved it. Inspired by the quality and thoughtfulness gone into its functions I bought an XPro1 and XT1. I never really enjoyed using the pro1 although the IQ was impressive. I bought over time lenses such as the 35mm both f2 and 1.4, great for portraiture and low light, 18-135mm and shot theatre, with a bit of tweaking in LR produced images that satisfied my clients, 16-55, great for jaunts on beaches and a bit of portraiture, 23mm,50, just looked awesome... all on the XT1. So now having the XT2 I have a bit more tweaking space and easier to access controls...my photographic life is so much easier. Couple of lenses in the bag and I'm ready to go. This camera is great for someone that loves manual and automatic settings. Two sd cards oh that is so useful. Speed of continuous modes beautful. It's not often I could say on my nikon and canon ff gear that a large percentage of the images were keeps compared to this XT2. On this body out of 350 or so images only about 10 have been wasters. It might seem that there is a steep learning curve but honestly speaking any camera you get you'll find that in order to get the most out of your use you need to learn the functions. The tilting screen hasn't been much employed by me on my landscape jaunts and kind of wish it had the same manoeuvrability as the Olympus EM5 mark2. Stick that on an xt2 and I'd have the perfect camera. Wishes for extra? I wish the lovely people from Fuji would have included the built ND filter that was included in the old X100. Another wish? I wish the hoods were better on their lenses. This camera came with a small flash and a cleverly constructed flash as its profile helps when taking shots with flash. Everyone talks about how fantastic the acros filter is... to be perfectly honest yes it produces some great film like looking images and please note I'm old skool. If you can't stretch to this model the XT1 is decent,produces decent monochrome images too. JJC used to produce some excellent lens hoods for the X100. I hope they use that know-how to do the same for the rest of the Fuji lens range. If you want to do macro work none of the lenses combined with this body are adequate. For landscapes and portraiture it's a decent camera considering it's not a full frame. It's light to carry around and easier for packing on longer journeys. The only alternative of this calibre camera I would ever consider as an alternative is the Olympus I mentioned earlier but you'll need to do A LOT of tweaking in LR and PS to get to anything near a realistic colour output. Fuji colour reproduction is simply stunning. If you're toying with a ff body then yes canon or nikon with some good lenses. That comes at a price. I have them as I use them for different projects. Lisakalloo photography is online if you'd like to see the images you can achieve with the XT1 and 2.

Very pleased with the camera but it had a fault so had to return it and got full refund , the seller was a very understanding person they refunded me in a couple of days.Would gladly recommend them for anyone.

An excellent camera that has been superseded by the XT-3, which if you shoot video is the camera to go for, but if you're a stills photographer then this is a perfect camera. Great sensor, crisp images and paired with almost any Fuji X series lens, is an awesome combination. Great value now too

Amazing product, like all the other Fuji mirrorless cameras and lenses.It looked completely new, even the box, but I paid it much less then the new product. Arrived in time.

I love this camera, as I did the X-T1 before it.I'm a full time professional photographer and I've used Nikon kit for years but these day, I'm much more likely to use the X-T2 on a shoot.I carry it everywhere.

A great camera, extremely versatile. However, its downside seems to be the operating system which is not as smooth as the camera, from my own experience. Connectivity for wirelessly uploading photos is not as stable as it should be. Also, fuji, for some reason changed the “fujifilm cam remote” app to now require the location to be switched on, on the mobile device before allowing any photos to be uploaded. Why?! That should be entirely the individual’s choice.

I've owned this camera for about 3-4 years now. I bought it second hand like new for about £500 body only from WEX. Now, my experience of using this camera are from two genres: Wedding Photography and Landscape photography.Wedding Photography:-This camera is fast, has great auto focus, weather sealing, twin card slots and it's built like a tank.It's the last one of the XT models that was made in Japan and they're all made elsewhere after this one. It came out in 2016 and it was competing against several brands including the mighty Sony brand.I actually have this 18-55mm lens pictured here as well.I love the reliability, the 14 FPS shutter release, the film simulations (which you can shoot in video mode as well) and the customisable functions so I can shoot as I like to shoot semi professionally.The twin card slots can be configured in various ways but I use them to create an instant back up which is essential for me when shooting weddings.The dynamic range is great and it shoots in silent mode also.Don't think that the APSC sized sensor means inferior image quality. This camera has always shot outstanding images.If video is your thing there is quite a lot of customisable functionality as well and it shoots in 4k.Fujifilm threw everything at this camera to show just how good they were in the field at the time. They continued to improve the camera for quite a while through firmware updates which squeezed more and more out of it.I shoot with the Fujifilm battery grip on wedding days and it gives me about 1300-1500 shots before battery change is required.The only thing I would say is that you need very fast speed lenses with a low aperture number like f/1.4 or below to get good bokeh (blurred backgrounds) unless you know how to do this with the zoom lens. That lens is also optically stabilised and it does a decent job of it.Landscapes:-I'm a bit of an adventurer in my spare time and I love hikes, climbing, camping in wild places etc.I've taken this camera on many if not most of my adventures.Why? Because I know its so reliable, solid and for such high quality and great build quality it's compact in size. So I clip it to my rucksack shoulder strap so I can clip it on and off quickly.The lens in this image is great for my style of adventure shooting as it gives me about 84mm (full frame equivalent) and I get good image stabilising when I'm shooting at that focal length.This body and lens combo is awesome and a great walk around set up.I also have a 25mm 7artisans MF lens, 23mm F/2 Fujinon lens for this camera body. Theyre all great on it and as for the manual focus lens I have Peak focusing built in which I have switched on when shooting MF lenses and it's spot on. I get sharp images pretty much all the time. I'm used to MF though as I learned on SLRs when I was a lad but Peak focusing is a game changer when you get used to it.The film simulations produce some beautiful colours and tones and you can programme non Fuji film simulations into the camera also using film recipes (Google this subject. Thank me later).Lastly, if your wondering about the sensor in this camera it's made by Sony. Yep! They have been since this model of camera was released.Nikon use them, Canon have since about 2016 and so you get great Dynamic range.Last thing. The lens in this bundle when it came out a few years back was £650 on its own. The XT2 hasn't been made for several years so this is likely new stock that's been sat in storage somewhere.Quite frankly in my opinion you're getting a pro or semi pro set up and fantastic quality lens for a grand!I shoot this alongside a Sony a7iii at weddings. Why the Sony? It just has a slight dynamic range advantage and better bokeh for certain image types.I seriously thought about just having two of these for weddings and sacking off Sony. Then the price of used Fuji cameras just went astronomical. This is a great package for the money and if you're serious about photography and want something better than any phone pics (obviously knowledge on how to use it is required) it's a no brainer. I even bought the Fujifilm XE3 body as a discreet street photography (another passion of mine) which has the same processor as the XT2 so I get the same image quality. Difference is the XT2 is the pro body with the same sensor.That's all I really have to say. It doesn't have IBIS (but I don't need it) but camera tech imo has moved on much since this camera (if you value non AI photography) and hence why it's so relevant today.Don't procrastinate. It's an amazing piece of kit.
