Got it yesterday. Overall I'm very impressed -- seems like a terrific camera. Bleep bleep cheapskates Fuji didn't include an external battery charger. Have to charge the battery in the camera. So I'll pick one up -- nuisance.
Took it out for a walk through the neighborhood this afternoon. A lot of folks are griping about the fully articulated screen but my old knees love it. Build quality seems a cut above my XT-2.

Nice Images. XT-3 / XT-4, cameras I've thought about.

My new Sony 6600 came without a charger as well. I got one, but it was dear.
I’m afraid it is a trend.

Hi I'd chase your retailer/Fuji up. I can't believe they don't supply a charger. Damn stupid. Especially as the batteries are different.

Nice choice in the camera and those two images tell me that you’ll do well with it. Nice!

I presume you just skipped over the XT-3 and went directly to the XT-4. What lens did you get? My XT-2 came with the standard 18-55. I really think you need an external charger. My XT-2 did come with one.
Presumption correct -- skipped the XT-3. I bought the XT-4 body only and will use my existing lenses.

It is amazing to me that camera corps just don't seem to understand the principles of customer satisfaction. Leaving a battery charger out of the package may add a few cents to the bottom line, but the damage to corp. image far outweighs it. Nikon's D600 had a major flaw with oil leaking around the shutter mech. Their answer: fix it once, then blame it on "dropping the camera" exclusion used for every conceivable reason not to fix any of their cameras. Prove you didn't drop it!! LOL. These practices may not kill their business immediately, but over time, the customer is much slower to step up to the "newest, must have" and that leads to ultimate failure. ie Pentax is famous for poor service, I passed over their early mid format; who needs the hassle??

Nice pic’s! Surprised no external charger came with it. WTH!!!
Longer battery life though and 300,000 cycle shutter life.
IBIS....finally.
That camera ticks a lot of my boxes.
My next camera has to have an articulated screen.
I liked that feature with the Olympus I briefly owned but I couldn’t stand the menu.
Our knees must be related.

I too have used one and found it to be a good camera as well. I like the two images you did and I think you'll love this one . I liked the monochrome picture style than mine produced as well.....it was different from my Canon's picture style but quite dramatic and very appealing. Good Luck and more please. Fuji has come a long way and will get beter as time passes I expect.

Your new Fuji camera has finely captured a beautiful rendition of the lavender flower. It stands alone as a winner.
I believe a closer crop will more isolate the flower to enhance its overall eye appeal. I took the liberty of this cropping. I made on other change.

Yep, I would have much preferred to pay a little more for the camera and get what I minimally needed. Now I have to go through the trouble of buying the charger separately. I'm still going to have to pay for it -- Duh. Hey Fuji! Someone else is going to get that money as I'll probably buy another brand charger.

Had the XT2, now own the XT3, it will be interesting for BIF Photos if the XT4 has an even better focus system than the XT3, Great Pictures and Congratulations on the New Camera !!!
