Fujifilm X-A3 review

An affordable mirrorless camera with retro styling

Good image quality ; Solid kit lens ; Nice-looking design ; Great screen

No 4K video ; Plasticky finish in parts ; Menu system could be better

This retro-styled, entry-level mirrorless interchangeable lens system camera with Instagram-style filters and a 'smile' shutter for selfies is aimed at 'phoneographers' after an upgrade, but it will be a learning curve for most. However, consistently...

Fujifilm X-A3

The mirrorless Fujifilm X-A3 camera and the images it captures look great, but its autofocus system is way behind the competition.

Strong image quality. Stylish design. Compact. Selfie touch LCD. Film simulation modes. Wi-Fi.

Slow autofocus. Omits EVF. Inconsistent touch interface. Limited shooting buffer. No 30fps video option or mic input.

The Fujifilm X-A3 delivers solid image quality and gives you access to Fuji's excellent line of mirrorless lenses, and it sports a crisp, tilting touch LCD, Wi-Fi, and a stylish design. But the autofocus system is way too slow for a camera at this...

Fujifilm X-A3

The Fujifilm X-A3 is an easy-to-use mirrorless ILC that has a lot of great features for beginning and intermediate photographers. Advanced shooters probably won't find enough to entice them here, but the A3's good image quality, tiltable touch screen...

Can shoot in RAW or JPEG image formats (or both at same time) ; Good image quality in a variety of shooting situations ; Large increase in resolution to 24.2MP versus what was found in previous model ; Can use hot shoe to attach external flash or...

Autofocus system had some trouble locking on to the point we desired when shooting close up and indoors ; No 4K video resolution available ; 12 options on mode dial are probably too many; mode dial could be smaller ; No viewfinder included ; Very...
