Eric I tried several during last year and traded them all back, this one is streets above all that I tried. It has simple controls and can be used just like a DSLR on M S A or P on any settings you need. ISO can be set or Auto and colour bal like -wise, but to date auto works fine on out doors. You can not fault the lens sharpness and I now think results are even better than I was getting with my D300 with 18-200 AFS my old well tried compact travel choice.Size is reduced but not by so much that you can not hold it or compose a picture. The eye level viewfinder is sharp and works well.
My wife has been on at me to get such a camera so she can use it as well. She doesn't 'get on' with the Fuji system.
But I am loving the new Fuji XT. Just got a shot of a Nightingale singing! These elusive critters sing from deep in the bushes so you normally can't snap them. But this chap saw me, flew to a higher perch gave a couple of trills before flying off. But the Fuji grabbed him in mid trill.
So it will be hard to part with this system as a travel kit ...especially after converting the XE body to IR, to share the lenses.
Glad you are enjoying the XT1.
