Just bought the Fujifilm X-S20

[Gunnlaugur Gudmundsson]

First impression, really like the grip/handling and I like the viewfinder. Coming from the X-H2 viewfinder a bit of a relief. Yes, the X-H2 finder is huge, a much 'better', but for me, too overwhelming to allow for easy framing. So, like everything ... a matter of taste ...

My friend Hera, at the coffeeshop this morning ... Sigma 18-50.

Lovely photo!

You're one of the few that like the viewfinder. I got my S20 in November and though the viewfinder isn't as nice as the one on my H1, it doesn't bother me, I think Fuji rightly anticipated the target market would be using the LCD much more often than the EVF anyway.

In addition to the H1 and S20, I also have the E1, E2s and E3. I wanted a new travel camera that was small like my X-E3, had IBIS and more advanced video features. I got the S20 and it checks all the boxes, plus has the bigger battery. I miss the two slots of my H1, with one slot dedicated to stills and the other to video, but it's a minor inconvenience. The PASM dial doesn't bother me.



Here's the S20 with my E1 and H1.

yes, I forgot to mention the battery, a huge plus to have a 750 shot battery ... I mentioned the viewfinder - because of negative press - of course it's not the best, but excellent for framing, for me the main purpose of a viewfinder ... the overall size of the camera is great ... I bought it for the Hybrid capability ,,, photo and video - price and size ... so, happy ...

nice shot, I also own both H2 and S20.

I prefer to use S20 for light traveling. The only downside is its missing "soft skin" feature. Soft focus on the filter dial is way too much effect. Both are great!

Yes, it is small, great for casual / traveling ... for me, the grip of both H2 and S20 is a must .. I like cameras that are easy to hold ...

same 'event' - just friends/co-workers, sitting at a coffeeshop, around 11 o´clock in the morning ... discussing business ... that's what I like (amateur) ... documenting life, small camera, but capable... etc ....
