About this deal

Stejně jako u ostatních přístrojů řady X jsou strany otočných ovladačů zdrsněny pro snadnější ovládání. Uživatel může levou rukou otáčet clonovým kroužkem na objektivu, pravou rukou pak otočné ovladače času závěrky akompenzace expozice na horní straně fotoaparátu arychle tak měnit nastavení. Nejčastěji používané funkce je možno přiřadit tlačítku Fn (Function) pro plynulejší fotografování. Fotoaparát je dále vybaven přesným vestavěným bleskem sekvivalentem směrového čísla 7. Použití vlastního měřicího systému TTL umožňuje fotit interiérové snímky zblízka snáležitým množstvím světla. Fotoaparát X-M1 bude k dispozici ve třech barevných variantách – černá, stříbrná ahnědá.

The Fujifilm X-M1 has three dynamic range settings - 100% (on by default), 200%, and 400% - and an Auto setting if you want to let the camera take control. These settings gradually increase the amount of detail visible in the shadow and highlight areas, with the side-effect of more noise appearing in the image. Note that you can't actually turn this featur e off. Boosting ISO to 12800 results in more noise and much more aggressive noise reduction by the camera. Noise is apparent in the shadows (although noise reduction makes it look a little “muddy”) and more artifacts are visible throughout the image. Still, ISO 12800 is very usable in my opinion, especially when down-sampled. ISO 25600, on the other hand, looks too muddy and washed for my taste.

To make the camera less obtrusive there's a clever Silent menu option which turns off the speaker, flash, AF-assist lamp and most importantly the artificially-created shutter-release sound, instantly making the X-M1 perfectly suited to more candid photography. And here are some portrait shots. As you can see, neither the Forced Flash setting or the Red-eye Reduction & Forced Flash option caused any red-eye. Focusing performance isn't as snappy as, say, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-G6, but most people won't notice. The camera focuses well in low light, and took less than a second to acquire its subject. You'll wait for just over a second before you can take another shot, regardless of the image quality setting. Adding the flash into the mix increases the delay to two seconds.There is a slight difference in noise between ISO 200 and 400 in the shadows, but both look very clean overall. The Fuji X-M1 comes with a built-in WiFi antenna, the first in X-series line of cameras. While it is great that you can save your pictures to your computer, upload images to your smartphone/tablet, look through the images on the camera or even Geotag your images, there is no way to control the camera through Fuji’s provided camera app. That’s very unfortunate because I expected this feature to be available when I first heard of the WiFi capabilities of the camera. As a result, I did not play much with the WiFi features of this camera or the app.

Again, going from ISO 800 to ISO 1600 practically does not add any noise to the image, even in the shadows. ISO 3200, on the other hand, adds a little bit of noise and here we can see the effect of noise reduction applied by the camera on JPEG images – clarity is slightly reduced as a result.

The flash settings on the Fujifilm FinePix X-M1 are Auto, Forced Flash, Suppressed Flash, Slow Synchro, Red-eye Reduction Auto, Red-eye Reduction & Forced Flash and Red-eye Reduction & Slow Synchro. These shots of a white coloured wall were taken at a distance of 1.5m. ISO 800 clearly adds more noise to the image (especially in the shadows), as can be seen from the sample crop above.

Exposure is accurate in most cases, with occasional overexposure and clipped highlights (the latter can be reduced by using the DR Correction feature). Fuji cameras are well known for their very vivid colors, and the X-M1 carries on that tradition. One thing we did notice is that areas of high frequency green detail can be a bit smudged, possibly due to the X-Trans color filter. With its focal-plane shutter, the X-M1 has a very adaptable top shutter-speed limit of 1/4000th second in all shooting modes. Consequently there's no built-in ND filter as on the X100/S, so if you want to use, say, the excellent 35mm lens at F/1.4 in very bright sunlight, then it's a good idea to buy an actual glass ND filter (52mm), otherwise you'll have to stop down to achieve a correct exposure. There are 9 ISO settings available on the Fujifilm X-M1 for JPEGs, and 6 for RAW files. Here are some 100% crops which show the noise levels for each ISO setting for both JPEG and RAW files. JPEG Considering this is the entry-level model, it’s still pretty expensive – other CSCs are available for half the price (a cheaper X-A1 model is widely rumoured but not yet announced as we go to press). However, various features position it closer to mid-range models in other ranges. There’s a hotshoe for an external flashgun, plus integrated Wi-Fi for transfers to iOS and Android devices. The articulated screen, dedicated mode dial and dual command dials also distinguish it from many cheaper rivals.

Let’s talk about a very important feature that is missing on the X-M1 – the electronic viewfinder (EVF). Being a mid-range mirrorless camera, the X-M1 was designed to be used like traditional point and shoot cameras, by looking at the LCD of the camera for framing. Unfortunately, there is no option to attach an electronic viewfinder either, like on some Micro Four Thirds cameras. While for some people it is not a problem, this is almost a deal-breaker for me. I am so used to composing images through the viewfinder, that I just cannot frame an image by looking at the LCD. It took me a while to get used to the X-M1 for that reason – I kept wanting to look through the viewfinder that is not there! If you are a DSLR junkie like me, just keep this in mind. Unlike the other X-system cameras, the X-M1 has no eye-level viewfinder at all, nor any option for a plug-in electronic viewfinder. Instead it uses an articulating rear screen, which is a 3-inch, 3:2 aspect ratio unit with 920k dot resolution. It can tilt to face almost directly downwards for overhead shots, or upwards for waist-level shooting. The X-M1 also has a 'focus peaking' feature that highlights high-contrast edges to assist manual focus. Also, I know that some people complain about framing through the LCD during daytime conditions when it is very bright. I have used the X-M1 during my landscape workshop when it was very sunny and also used it for other projects outdoors and I can tell you that the LCD is very bright, so there are really no concerns there. The biggest thing you need to be comfortable with is looking at the LCD for framing / composing shots. The good news is, in situations where I did need to use the LCD (such as photographing people on the dance floor during a wedding), I loved the ability to tilt the screen. So the tilt screen is definitely a very useful feature and the 3″ display with 920K dots makes images appear very crisp and beautiful. I would love to see Fuji implement a tilt screen in addition to a high-resolution EVF in the future versions of their higher-end X series cameras, similar to what my Olympus OM-D E-M5 offers. The Fujifilm X-M1 mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera was released on June 24, 2013 together with the Fujinon XC 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS lens. After the success of the X series cameras including the X100, X-Pro1 and X-E1, Fuji decided to expand the line of interchangeable lens mirrorless cameras by introducing a more affordable mid-range version, the X-M1. While the X-Pro1 and X-E1 are targeted at professionals, enthusiasts and serious amateurs, the X-M1 is designed to attract a broader audience.All of the sample images in this review were taken using the 16 megapixel Fine JPEG setting, which gives an average image size of around 5Mb. As with the X-M1's X-Trans siblings, photo quality is very good. The included 16-50mm kit lens surprisingly good sharpness at wide-angle and telephoto, with minimal corner blurring and no noticeable vignetting. To really see what the camera can do, attach a prime lens and you'll be blown away by the sharpness and detail it can capture. There's an unmarked tactile control dial for changing the exposure compensation (+-2EV) or the shutter speed, dependant upon the shooting mode, alongside the ridged dial for selecting one of the 12 different modes. As the X-M1 is a more consumer-focused camera, there's a smattering of scene modes alongside the beginner-focused Auto modes and more photographer-friendly P/A/S/M modes. The clever Advanced SR AUTO automatically optimizes the shutter speed, aperture and other settings, instantly recognizing 58 scene types and then choosing the most appropriate settings. Also new to the X-M1 is the Advanced mode, which offers a range of 13 different filter effects that can be previewed on the LCD screen (JPEG only). Here is an illustration of a traditional bayer pattern color filter array compared to the new Fuji color filter array:
