I continuously read about how good the Fuji X-T series is; I am not sure I have really ever seen an article in UHH posted by a reader asking questions about the use of Fuji cameras, nor has anyone really ever alluded to owning one and commenting on how good it is ( there may have been an occasional article I don't recall seeing )

Does anyone in UHH land admit to owning / using Fuji ?

There have been lots of posts here about Fuji cameras. I like my X-T30. It can be hard to do a Search because of the titles some people use.

This is an issue. I often wish that searches also could be found by content. If that were to be enabled it would make life here much more fruitful.

wasn't really looking for an article; just noticing that 95% of rhetoric seems to about Nikon and Canon, with an occasional Sony or Fuji thrown in; what I have noticed is that I have never seen a Fuji in use in the public; have seen a Sony here or there, but they seemed to be in use by Asian owners.

Yes, I have a Fujifilm X100T I bought for my wife. It seems to be too complex for her to use and it challenges me too. very different from my Pentax cameras. The used Fuji takes very nice but different looking images from my Pentaxs. I'm thinking of selling this Fuji and getting a different but simpler plain MILC model Fuji. They have several that are not expensive either and new Fuji lenses are fairly reasonable.

I sold my D500, Nikon lenses and now shoot with the Fuji X-T3 and have not looked back. I love everything about the Fuji system. You may not see much on UHH as Fuji is a niche market not anywhere as large as Sony, Nikon and Cannon.

Sometimes it's better to search using Google, just put each term that must be included in full qoutes "uglyhedgehog" "fuji"

I love my XT-2. Being an old (film days and DSLR) Nikon shooter, I wasn't sure about switching. But I couldn't be happier with my selection. Having said that, I am strictly a hobbyist and not a pro and I don't need giant prints. But you have to decide what meets your needs.

I don't have any Fuji gear but I think their 4 WR primes are the best looking lenses on the market and have considered getting one of their cameras just to get one of those 4 lenses.

I bought a Fuji X-E2 for my wife, but I love the quality and color of the images and the size and weight as well as the control layout. Fuji’s lenses are first rate, and I’ll be trading up to an X-T2 shortly. I bought into Fuji because two friends who shoot professionally (Nikon and Canon), use Fuji for their travel and personal photography. Especially for travel where the weight difference between it and my Canon 5D4 is huge, I find myself choosing the Fuji more and more. The limitation is that it’s about a stop worse than the FF Canon at low light/high ISO, which is to be expected, but it’s solid to ISO 6400. I’ll definitely be keeping both systems and adding more lenses to the Fuji.

It could be that since it appears that a significant percentage of the membership in this forum are elderly and therefore less likely to embark upon change. If you want to read info from Fuji users, you should probably consider joining a Fuji forum.

Must have been reading a different forum.......

Traded all of my Nikon gear (D500, many lenses) for Fujifilm X-T1, 18-135mm f3.5/5.6, and 14mm f2.8. Zoom lens is OS, and body and lens are weather resistant. Wife and I are traveling more the past few years and I love this kit. Learning a different system is just that. You get out what you put in. Also have the X100F. Not weather resistant, but it’s easy to slip under a jacket in case of a surprise shower. Love the images I get from both cameras!

Thank you, Ed Chu, for your click bait post. I have owned and used a variety of Fuji cameras with great pleasure over the past 3-4 years. Any that I have sold, have been sold due to my own increasingly faltering health. I currently own three, and will sell two of them based on a recent diagnosis of terminal cancer. When I finally die, the last one will be donated to a good friend.
