Product details

The X-E3 is equipped with a 24.3-megapixel X-Trans CMOS III sensor in APS-C format and the powerful image processor (X Processor Pro). The X-E3 is the first camera in the X series to offer the ability
to wirelessly transfer image data to a smartphone or tablet via an energy-saving Bluetooth interface.

The large touchscreen display on the back of the camera makes shooting even more intuitive with familiar functions such as "Touch Shot," "Touch AF" and "Focus Area Selection." In addition, the new "Touch Function" offers additional possibilities to control the camera using finger gestures. A new autofocus algorithm provides a performance boost, especially when automatically tracking moving objects.

The X-E3 is the handiest viewfinder camera in the X series. It's so compact and lightweight that it's a pleasure to take along every day for everyday use and travel. The body is optimally balanced and fits comfortably in the hand thanks to the distinctive recessed grip. The camera also has a focus joystick. It can be used to adjust the focus range conveniently and quickly without having to take the camera away from your eye.

On the top of the camera, there are two mechanical aluminum dials that perfectly complement the high-quality design and provide the user with appealing haptic feedback for each setting. One of the dials is used to set the exposure time, while the other is used for exposure compensation. The exposure compensation wheel has a C position, which can be used to extend the correction up to ±5 EV steps.

In addition, the X-E3 has an AUTO mode that can be easily turned on and off as needed via a switch on top of the camera. When activated, the camera detects the scene and automatically selects a suitable setting.

The combination of the 24.3-megapixel APS-C format X-Trans CMOS III sensor and X Processor Pro ensures outstanding image quality and speed. After switching on, the camera is ready for the first shot in just 0.4 seconds, and the shutter release time is practically imperceptible at just 0.050 seconds. The X-E3's performance is also evident during shooting.

The X-E3 is the first camera in the X series to feature an energy-saving Bluetooth function. Even before shooting, the camera can be connected to a smartphone or tablet. Using the FUJIFILM Camera Remote app, images can then be easily transferred with minimal power consumption.

The 7.6 cm (3-inch) monitor has 1.04 million pixels and offers a touchscreen function. When the "Touch Mode" is activated, one of the following shooting and playback modes can be selected.

The camera also offers a "touch function" to quickly access previously defined functions via swiping movements up and down as well as right and left. While looking through the electronic viewfinder, the photographer can use his finger on the display to move the focus area. The scope of the "touch function" can be defined in the camera settings: "ALL", "RIGHT", "LEFT" or "OFF".

The X-E3 records video in either Full HD or Ultra HD (4K). The popular movie simulations that the X series is famous for can also be applied to movie recording. Movie recording can also be controlled via an external monitor, which can be connected directly to the camera via an HDMI cable. The X-E3 also has an input for an external microphone.

Der Testsieg geht an die X-E3 mit Sucher (ausführlicher Test in fM12/17 bzw. auf www.fotoMAGAZIN.de). Sie erreicht mit ihrem X-Trans-Sensor eine höhere Auflösung als die Schwestermodelle und hat trotzdem eine bessere Artefaktnote.

Die Fujifilm X-E3 bietet gute Bildqualität, einen kleinen elektronischen Sucher, verzichtet aber auf ein Klappdisplay. Die Leica entschwebt mit elegantem Design auf ein deutlich höheres Preisniveau, das trotz guter Bildergebnisse im Vergleich mit der Fujifilm völlig überzogen wirkt...
