X-E1 for a complete beginner?


Recommended Posts

I was wondering if a like-new fuji x-e1 with the 18-55 xf would still be worth getting at this point? This would be my first camera ever, and my thought process was that the body could always be replaced in future, but the lenses would be worth investing in. I would be paying around $650 Canadian.

I think it's on the high side since the body is so old but it's a nice combination to start with. Keep in mind though that the autofocus is really slow and quite bad in low light. The image quality is still very nice though, so if it's ok with you you have some misfocus shots and you can take your time with the kind of photography you do it's a really nice combo, the 18-55 is great. 

Here are some fun x-e1 in 2019 reviews:

The X-E2 is a major improvement compared to the X-E1, and, in second hand, could be in very good condition and not much more expensive !

The X-E2 is a very fine camera that will make the beginning in photography more easy, encouraging and pleasant. 

Note: X-E2 and X-E2s are the very very similar with the last firmware update
