xt1 for $899 or xt10 for $799

[Guest navidf]

Hi. I have access to a like new XT1 for $899. I currently use the XE1. Or wait for XT10 for $100 less.

Thanks

The X-T1 is objectively the better camera. For that little of a price difference, there's no major reason to not get it. Bigger EVF, full dial layout, weather sealing.
However, there are a couple of small points in favour of the X-T10: "like new" suggests the X-T1 is used, so I would assume that does not come with a warranty, whereas a new X-T10 will; the battery life of the X-T10 seems to be very slightly better; if you trade in or sell your X-E1, that + the extra $100 would probably be enough to buy you another lens, if you fancy it.

Double-check the X-T1 really is "like new" and make your decision from there. If it really is as good as new, I think this is a no-brainer.

It says like new, kit lens removed, never turned on. Fuji authorized dealer, but no flash.

Huh, strange. Well, assuming they will give you the usual 14-day/30-day return period, might as well go for it. The X-T10 is very nice but for just $100 more, the X-T1 is the better camera.

They say the Fuji warranty is included

I bought it. The flash is in the box! Full warranty. I believe they have 1 more open box: Cardinal Camera. Claire @ 215-855-4818.

 

Thanks

Man for that price???!!!!  No brainer.  X-T1!

Would you get a chance to try the XT1 out before you commit to buy? If it's OK with the seller, then you should take some shots. The, at least you know that there's no obvious reason of concern.

One thing I would like to throw in, not for OP obviously but in general.

 

The X-T1 dials and controls are quite foreign if you are a Canikon shooter, so while missing a metering dial, you get that PASM dial on the X-T10 which can be good if you are one to feel lost without it.

Only Canikon users that never used old school cameras before Canikon started overtaking the world.

There is a generation of ppl still alive that learned how to use cameras on bodies just like X-T1
