The Fuji system is awesome. I can’t believe i am considering selling all of my Nikon gear (Nikon user since 1981) except a few vintage lenses that adapt nicely to the Fuji X-T3.

If you really want a rangefinder. I think the XT-30 with the EVF is better, but some people like a rangefinder.

I think you will not regret your choice! The Fuji is a photographer's camera. You have the best of both automatic and manual operation, beautiful images and great video as well. The 18-55 is the lens I use most: small, sharp, and relatively fast. and my 55-200 is just perfect for the longer shots. Enjoy it. But do get one of the books to go along with it so that you can really utilize all its great features.

I sold all of my Nikon gear and purchased the X-T3 this past year and haven’t looked back. I love the ease of the old style controls, excellent colors and the light weight. The 23mm 2.0 is my favorite although the the 18 to 55 is a great all around lens.

Just wait! You will end up using the Fuji almost exclusively once you really get used to it. That little "kit" lens is soooo useful and somehow the Fuji is always more convenient to use. It happens to so many Canon and Nikon users that got a Fuji as a "second" camera. And you WILL get more Fuji lenses. It happens to all of us.


It's going to be a challenge. I did a lot of indoor shooting yesterday with the 27mm f/2.8, Aperture Mode, and results were not good. Shutter speed was too low, but I'll get used to that and learn to raise the ISO more. Pushing in on the front and rear Command Dials to change their function is something new to me.

You need to turn on the info of your EVF so that you are aware of the S speed as you shoot. Or set a minimum shutter speed so you don't accidentally get motion blur. Once you get that little camera set up to suit your particular issues, you will love the way it handles and responds to you. Getting a good book is useful. I got one by Tony Philips but there are others even better I have heard.
