Fuji X-E4 on the streets

Last year I have sold my X-t2 and X-pro2 and bought a new X-E4.

I wanted a smaller form-factor in a RF style camera with a flip screen for the streets.

The reviews of the X-E4 are not always positive, and I think that's a shame.

Omar Gonzalez even cancelled his order.

I was worried by the lack of grip and buttons, but this camera is a joy to use (the IQ and AF is similar to the other Fuji's at the same generation). The buttons allow me to do whatever I want and the small body is easy to grip.

Please take a look at the pictures I have shoot last year with the X-E4:

Happy new year to all,

Some great images

I have an xe4 and it is one of my favourite fuji cameras. Great from factor.

I don’t normally click on links without a sample pic, but I’m really glad I did. Superb photos, IMHO.

Have a happy new year.

Wonderful, Ori. XE4 is a gem. LOL on the pandas.

I did not LOVE my X-E4 until I added a grip. Now it's a great kit with 18-55 or 18/27/60 or 18/35/60, or 14,/27/60. Any one of the "3 lens" kits fit easily a very small bag, or just throwing extra lenses in a jacket or coat pocket.

Nice work! 👍

I didn't think it could be a problem.. Thanks for clicking

Most of the photos were taken with 16mm f/2.8

I am happy you liked the pandas. They were nice

What a niec looking camera!
It is so capabale too.

I use the thumb grip on the hot-shoe (provided with the camera).

Started with the X-T30, after it was stolen I tried the X-T3 and sent it back within a week and went with the X-E4 instead. I love how compact it is yet has the same internals as every other camera from that generation. Using the 14, 27, 30, 35/1.4, and 60 is great when I want compact and light, but there’s also the option of using larger lenses like the 16/1.4 and 70-300.

The only way I’d upgrade to the X-Pro4 would be if Fuji went with the 26mp stacked sensor so they could trade the weight and space of the mechanical shutter for IBIS.

A really well put together set, and the soundtrack really compliments the presentation. May I ask who is the performer of that version of "Strawberry Fields Forever"?.

Hi,

Thanks for posting. I enjoyed the set and presentation - good to see images utterly different from my own.

Cheers, Rod

Hi Gringostarr,

I know it's slightly OT, but I notice you have the new 30mm.  I've ordered one, but it's yet to arrive.  Are you using it as a general purpose as well as macro lens?   There are a few reviews around that are quite positive but very few serious tests.  How are you finding it?

Thx, cheers, Rod

I have X-E4 and X-T3.  X-E4 is my favorite, hands down. You had to be there, of course.

Definitely not for everyone.

I agree. A really nice set of photos with the X-E4. Well worth watching the video.

(I believe the soundtrack is Strawberry Fields by Tatran).

I traded my X-Pro2 for the XE-4 for similar reasons.  It's a superb camera and with a small lens it's back pocketable.  Hard to beat

Omar Gonzalez has some great videos but sometimes he really misses the mark. Wonderful images.
