FujiFilm X-A2 Pro Reviews

Fujifilm X-series cameras are premium models that generally appeal to experienced and enthusiast photographers. It's great that Fuji hasn't compromised significantly on the build of its entry-level compact system camera. The X-A2 feels very nice in the hand, the controls are responsive and easy to locate and image quality is good. If you're not bothered about having a viewfinder, it makes a good first interchangeable lens camera.

The Fujifilm X-A2 is introduced with an improved 16-50mm II OIS kit lens, and despite being a kit lens, it delivers excellent image quality with a useful wide-angle to telephoto zoom range and includes a good sized lens hood. The combination of this lens and the compact body makes for a compelling package, with the added bonus of a good 3inch tilting screen and built in Wi-Fi connectivity. For those that want a more traditional feeling camera, as well as a built in viewfinder, you would be best looking at the X-E2, however for the price, the X-A2 delivers excellent results with good controls and layout. The X-A2 is the most affordable Fujifilm X series CSC available yet, and despite using a "standard" APS-C CMOS sensor, delivers impressive image quality, with low noise right up to ISO3200 and ISO6400 while retaining good levels of detail. Some may even find the results from this camera preferable to the results from the more expensive X-M1. With the introduction of the X-A2, Fujifilm also introduced updated lenses, making the Fujifilm X series a much more compelling system, although some may wish there were more affordable lenses to go with the camera. With impressive image quality and a camera packed with features, we would highly recommend the Fujifilm X-A2.

The Fujifilm X-A2 is a very capable mirrorless camera, but it's a little pricey for an entry-level model.
