Fujifilm X-T200 review

for xt200 fujifilm, battery life is poor , only 1 hour.
it gets heat when you contnious shoot 30 mins.
photo quality is very poor only 5 mb, you can't zoom or edit or crop image . there's no way you can get better images. if you zoom the lens quality gets very low.
not good for video just because follow focus not working properly. in 1080 p quality gets so bad you cant even imagine. and in 4k you cant zoom. if you zoom video gets so noisy and bad.
so, this camera is not for photography, not for videography. please dont buy. compny is cheater. never buy fujifilm.

I own one. As a long time D7200 shooter I prefer the colours of the XT200 !
Especialy the Velvia film simulation.
Skin tones, reds and greens are superior in the Fugi.
I bought the Fugi as it was a mirrorles (small and light).
Great for hikes in country or city.
It was inexpensive at $675 Can in Dec 2020.
A shame it doesn 't sell more. I prefer it to the Nikon.
Quality is fine . The only negative thing I can say is that it probably does'nt
have enough " snob appleal " for many of you.

Guys from @Dpreview can you finally create a studio scene of x-t200 ?

Trying to purchase the xt200. Was told in one store that this camera has been discontinued? Already? or is there a production problem. Is anyone else having trouble buying this camera?

The best camera is the one that you use !!
Are you listening?

Nice Camera with effective features. Actually the new LCD is better quality, better touch response, and bigger, the x-t100 did have nice functionality.
Thanks and Regards

"but is prone to seeing faces where there aren't any"

This is a hidden feature called Ghost Finder, since both it's view finder and LCD are electronic, so it has a short name "EGF".

X-T100 LCD flip + tilt screen is better.

@ Jeff Keller, DPR

You mentioned that the joystick is too small and not well-placed.

What would be the ideal size and placement?

I do not find it difficult or inconvenient to use.

I saw statement "new sensor with copper wiring, though we suspect it's similar to the chip we first saw in the X-T2 back in 2016". Are it possible next X-T6 flagship just X-T3 sensor with copper wiring? Only need small improvement R&D, save cost.

I own one. It's great for photography! I smile every time I take a picture and chimp at it. The colors are just so great! Love every part of it! Usable filters, film simulations. Using it all the time!!

But the video capabilities... dear god, Fuji! Not even an setting to set shutter speed in video mode? In dark light condition exposure steps all over the place... It's terrible. So much worse than my previous camera Canon 200d (I only film in FullHD)

is the 1080p as bad as Sony A6400/A6500 etc, 1080p? What about the 1080p, 120fps? Which camera should one buy? Thanks

Nitpicking, apologies. "Microphone and headphone inputs". Erm, either, "Microphone input and headphone output", or, "Microphone and headphone sockets". Sorry.

I see heavy "blooming" in the photos # 4, 11 and 14 of the full production gallery at the high contrast edges in the upper third of the photos. Looking like some sort of white haze. Could that be the lens?

Fujifilm is its own competition. The X-T30, X-E3, X-T200, X-A7, etc... A lot of entry level interchangeable lens cameras.

Not really a test of the X-T200. The important items: Image Quality test is of the X-A7. Autofocus test is of the X-T30.

Just by comparing test shots for weeks and weeks I came to fuji and the X-T100 last year. For me this kit delivered the most detailed and sharpest JPGs up to ISO 6400 and was only beaten by Sony's A 7 III and of course R III which both play in a different league. Looks like the winner in 2020 is the X-T 200 - depending on what else will be realeased in the upcoming months. In any case the T 200 will outperform every 1'' sensor compact camera without beeing considerably bulkier or heavier at a comparable or even better price.
Well done Fujifilm! ; )

Fujiflm should upgrade X-T200 (which light weight) firmware for support Bluetooth selfie stick. Selfie good for travel or family photo.

looks like the sensor inside fuji new budget apsc is a tangible improvement over the last gen xA5, XT100 and now I prefer this over the x-trans version

I have an X-T200, and I would respectfully disagree about it having "a mostly metal chassis". Like the X-T100, it seems to me that its main body (the leatheretted part) is made from polycarbonate front and back halves, which also form the base of the camera, but it differs from the unusually-heavy X-T100 which had an aluminium alloy top housing (even going as far as including a metal cap over the pop-up flash) by replacing these with polycarbonate also. It doesn't feel or look cheap, but it's easy to detect by looking at the ultra-fine moulding lines carefully hidden just beneath the horizontal edges and by noting how much warmer it feels than either aluminium alloy or magnesium alloy. I think this is how the substantial weight saving was made, along with the fully articulating screen, which though large, doesn't need the X-T100's large metal double bracket.

Of course I have no idea how much metal is used in the innermost chassis area, between the lens mount and the sensor...

Torn between this and Z50.

In a normal situation this fuji would struggle to get a look in, but seeing there is nothing else to write about .... it is time to highlight the mediocrity

Are you sure the EOS M50 AF is Hybrid, I thought the DPAF Canons were PDAF-only and didn't do a CDAF step?

Aside from the obvious lens edge softness, the sample images look great. I'd love for Fuji to put this sensor into the X-T4. I'd buy two!

Better quality than X-T2. Bayer photos also look a way cleaner against X-Trans.

Since the review specifically says this camera is a more compelling camera overall compared to the A6100 (and it costs less on Amazon), you’ll need to put this above the a6100 in the Under $1000 buying guide.

I do have to say the flip out screen is nice, and I wish my XT30 had that, so if I'm shooting street, I can keep the screen folded in as to not bother me or others while I'm photographing (I have the LCD turned off and the LEDs turned off too in the settings). I think the XT100/XT200 are great little cameras. I just wish there was more customization for the dial on the far left. I haven't looked at the XT200 but on the XT100 your options were a little limited as to what you can assign this dial to.

"compared to it's peers" section needs a quick sentence about the Panasonic GX85, since it's mentioned in the chart at the beginning.

My favourite Fuji camera up until now was the old S5 Pro. Love that thing! However, this is looking like a pretty good option for me. I only use my Fuji for wide angle and "normal" photography, while action and wildlife is done with my Nikons.
The only problem for me is that I can't use my Sigma 18-35 with it!

Thanks for the review. Looks like a great camera.

It remains a very appealing sidekick camera for me, particularly with the XC 35 mm f2 and the fine XC zooms available. Some of the decisions are odd - no exposure compensation with auto ISO? Why is the joystick in such a strange place? - but I'm still interested. I have a Canon M5 from the closeout deal with the 22 mm f2 that I adore, but this would be a worthy rival is I still in the market.

Thanks for the great review. It probably was as easy as normal.

Great little camera. Fuji has the best APSC line-up and is the only company primarily dedicated to ASPC right now.

Can you guys tell me what the auto-iso range is? the xt100 goes from 200-6400. going anything outside of that range requires to be manually set. whats the range in the xt200?

I'd really like to have that deeper grip on my X-T20.

An all-black version, please!

Is a camera for 799 dollars really a "entry level camera" ? It isn´t for my budget :D

X-T200 and the XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4.0 cost 1800 CAD in Canada. X-T30 kit with the same lens - $1700. How does it even make sense to buy X-T200 in this case?
