It is more or less an established fact amongst photographers that the Fuji X-Pro1, X-E1 and X100s (that is, Fujifilm’s high-end mirrorless cameras) produce outstanding on-camera JPGs. The rich lifelike colours and impressive dynamic range are generated by Fuji’s innovative X-Trans sensor, which is now in its second generation and will continue to improve with every new X-series release.

Enter the Fuji X-M1: Welcoming amateurs into the X-series fold

Whereas camera companies such as Olympus, Panasonic and Sony have gradually worked up from entry-level mirrorless cameras to high-end models, Fujifilm has taken a completely different approach to the production of their famous X-series. They started out with the high-end X-Pro1, which was soon followed by its baby brother, the X-E1, a camera practically identical to the X-Pro1 but lacking an OVF. Not long after, we saw two compacts, the X100s, tailored for professionals looking for a light second body for the streets, and the X20, a high-end compact with a non-interchangeable zoom lens.
