Gallery: Fujifilm X-E3 sample photos

In the last days I've spent a lot of time looking at the very nice pictures taken by cameras with the foveon sensors. After that I looked at the again wonderful pictures taken with the nikon d850. Now each one of these fujifilm pictures seems ugly, bland, really soft and out of focus, so much that these pictures can be considered ugly also without making a comparson to foveon/sigma and d850. Am I wrong?

Good job at 5K ISO !!! Very neutral noise.

Great samples in challenging light. Also, looks like a fun weekend! I need to hit the arcade again, those pinball machines are calling my name.

Although I'm not particular enamored with these image samples shown here, I have to say that once you jump squarely into the Fuji camp, you tend to become hooked. Lot's of intangibles involved with using Fuji cameras - many of which, are obviously difficult to describe. This X-E3 just adds to the mix. I still have both the X-E1 and X-E2 and one can see the logical transition with improvements between the X-E1 and X-E3.

Gosh, so many neat toys - yet so little money - sigh...

As a Canon user, the EOS-M line offers me a full "click-in" integration into the wider EOS ecosystem that is difficult to live without.

Further more, departing from the earlier offers, the EOS-M line cameras are consistently becoming better offers with each interaction.

I am also a firm believer that multiplying camera types platforms is something quite ineffective, financially-wise.

All that said, I must add: These little Fuji gems are making me vacillate about those certainties like no other cameras.

using the Ken Rockwell plugin in ACR?

The majority of you need to open the gallery and read the caption corresponding to each image. The images with over-saturated colors were processed using Adobe Camera RAW with "minor adjustments made."

In no way were the SOOC jpegs are over-saturated.

I don't get all of the comments criticizing over saturated colors. It does seem to me that a lot of the scenes that were photographed for this gallery had quite a bit contrasty & bright color to begin with.

Versatile jpeg film simulations that cater for a variety of styles this is just one and not indicative of all the cameras’ output. Good to see DPR presenting a different perspective .
The hipster complaint is a bit tiring considering that the older audience here is dwindling so why not focus the site on a ever expanding consumer group

Looks like the image quality of a camera from 15 years ago with the color boosted up

It's obviously me but I think that this engine is different than other fuji's.

I now get what people are talking about when they say "Fuji Magic!" It's that super high contrast look and processing that cannot be duplicated by any other camera manufacturer of Micro APS-C sensors. The photos almost look like real life, in fact it's almost hard to tell the two apart. So the X-transformance sensor does have some benefits making it superior even to something like the D850. I'm beginning to wonder what's the point of getting the large sensor when micro sensors like the Fuji seem to produce superior results?

What exactly happened to Fujifilm colors and exposure through all these years?
X-E1 (neutral but excellent colors, no deep shadows and no purple faces) https://www.dpreview.com/sample-galleries/4627355711/fujifilm-x-e1-review-samples
X-E2 (i like old horror and film noir movies, but that's too much, though skintones are splendid)

Great high iso results! Had I known just how good I would have upgraded my XE2 long ago. I’m glad though that I waited for the XE3 because the form factor is perfect for me

Very saturated colors that I have not seen in other Fuji sample galleries.

"Fujifilm's latest rangefinder ILC..." Why calling rangefinder a camera with an EVF?

Uncosistent AWB and magenta tint, but not supprice this issue accurs in other Fuji cams. I found it less in Fujis with bayer cfa, besides I also like more colours from X-A line. These look unnatural and unpeasant.

But X-E3 leems a good alternative for smartphone users that do not like buttons and love to play with touched lcd, although the colours look rather bad.

Winner winner chicken dinner.

337g with battery and outstanding IQ.

Why are there so many crappy cameras released every year and so few gems like this?

wow, cmos vs bayer, this x-trans surely make images look like boss. props to fujifilm

Nice images, similar to my X-Pro2, same engine I think. I used to shoot JPEG and the simulations, mainly VELVIA, but now shoot Raw only and change the simulations in LR.

Very nice set of pics but does the real have that much saturated colours? Looks more to me like cartoonesque images.

Why are there so many false colours between the branches on the third photo? (with the sunset)

RAW files seems small, my x30s files are not that much smaller. Love the form factor of this camera and it is very elegant but really could use a tilt screen and a bigger EVF(its the same EVF as my x30). A built in flash would also help it appeal to those moving up from a smartphone. For Fuji, it will be a niche item with far less sales(at least in the USA) compared to the X-T20(Americans, for the most part, think DSLR looking cameras are "real cameras" so they are drawn to that style.).
