The Fuji optics are in pure metal , Sony plastic. You can compare fujinon with zeiss but fujinon is cheaper.
The Fuji optics are in pure metal , Sony plastic. You can compare fujinon with zeiss but fujinon is cheaper. Fuji has a wonderful design with outstanding quality. For me Fuji is number one!
You do not make a decision to buy a camera based on specs only.
I’d never enjoy shooting with Sony’s imaging computer, that happens to take pictures.
Nor, over saturated Sony colors.
Fujifilm’s 16mp generation camera’s AF system are not on the same level as Sony’s offerings. If the XP2 is fujifilm’s new AF system than it’s certain that the A6300 will be better if AF is top priority.
Fuji was once in high speed mode somewhere in 2013-14
After that they have developed X-Trans 3 in 2016
The 2015 was a very dull year for fuji.
The Best part is Fuji isn’t moving towards Sony for sensors, they are developing own sensors and lenses…
