Fujifilm X-T10
I am considering purchasing the Fuji X-T10 and would appreciate comments from anyone
who has had experience with this camera. Thank you. Redruzek
Fuji cameras offer many options to set your camera up for exactly the way you prefer to shoot. Fuji lenses are fast gaining a reputation for sharpness, intelligent contrast and great color rendition. I own two Fuji cameras at the moment: a 24.3MP APS-C with interchangeable lenses and a 16.3MP APS-C compact. Fuji's 'build quality', tho not flawless in every single respect, is some of the best I have ever seen over many years of being a photography enthusiast. /Ralph
I had the Fuji X-T10 with the 18-55, 35mm 2.8 and the 27mm. Was happy with the quality of the camera, lenses and pictures. I did sell it not because I didn't like it but because i didn't need or use it as much as I thought I would. I also have nikon cameras and decided to stay with them.

Thank you for your response.
Excellent camera, especially since its price has been reduced after the introduction of the XT-20. The 18-55mm "kit" lens is very sharp and compact and a great walk-around lens. Add the 10-24 and 55-200, and you'll have a sharp, lightweight system that covers most shooting situations. Great color and dynamic range. I started with the XE-1 and moved up to the XT-1 with those lenses. After a year shooting with them, I sold all my Nikon gear and now shoot with the XT-2 and their fast zooms plus primes. Couldn't be happier. Go for it.
Go for it. I used to shoot Nikon primarily and then bought an X-Pro2 for street work. It wasn't long until the Nikon stuff went on the block. I currently shoot the X-Pro2 and X-T2 with a pack of Fuji lenses. My wife recently said she would like a camera to occasionally shoot with me, so I bought her an X-A3 and she loves it. You will be happy with the X-T10 and Fuji glass.

I don't have the 10, but I do have the XT-1 and the XT-2. Also have both DX and FX Nikons and a lot of Nikon lenses now gathering dust. Sorry, Nikon! Next to Fuji, you are kind of clunky, heavy and difficult to handle. Fuji puts all the necessary controls under your fingers not buried in menus. The entire package is elegant and logical. The images are sharp and the color is beautiful.
I appreciate your comments. Thanks much.
dck22,
Thank you. Your comments are helpful.
CatMarley,
Thanks much. Your comments are most encouraging.
I have this camera. I do love it. I used to shoot Nikon & raw all the time, but the jpegs are just so darn good.
I'm female & I do feel that the body is a bit too small. I use it mostly for a back-up now as I have the XT-2. Which I like even better. With the firmware updates that just happened it's even better & there's more to come this year.
If you can try the XT-2 as well. I often shoot bracketed, you can do 3 choices of film at the same time, ie Velvia, classic crime & Arcri G are my favourites. I can get the best of all of them at one time without sitting at the computer doing it on image after image. There is a bit of a learning curve but, once you get it your on you're way.
I do not have the XT-10 but have an XT-1. The main feature I like about Fuji eco system is the firmware support the firm provides. They do not stop firmware upgrades after one or two upgrades.
Every firmware upgrade makes it feel like you got a lot features for free. I believe other major camera manufactures are not so commmited to long term firmware support.
I to sold my Nikon Fx camera and assorted lenses after I bought and used my Fuji XT2 and couldn't be happier. I shot Nikon for years and loved their cameras and lenses. However, since I primarily shoot landscape the Nikon equipment became too heavy to carry up steep trails. I have not skipped a beat with my Fuji equipment and have continued the same clear shots and better color rendition. As mentioned, Fuji is known for their firmware updates that offer a multitude of new features. (The last upgrade on the Fuji XT2 and X Pro 2 added 30 upgrades.) Finally, Fuji's lenses are second to none and are at least as good as my outstanding Nikon FX lenses.
