Fujifilm X Camera

The Fujifilm X series is a line of digital cameras produced by Fujifilm. The series encompasses fixed lens and interchangeable lens mirrorless cameras and premium compact point-and-shoot cameras aimed at consumer, enthusiast and professional photographers. The X series is part of the larger FinePix range of digital cameras from Fujifilm.

The X series models use APS-C, one inch, or inch sensors.

X series model lines

Since its introduction with the X100 in 2011, the X series has grown to encompass a wide variety of designs. These lines can be broken out into the following categories or model lines.

APS-C sensor

The following lines are united by their use of APS-C-sized sensors measuring 23.5×15.6 mm, with an aspect ratio of 3:2 and Ø31.15 mm field diameter. They are listed here within each category in the order in which the initial model of each type was introduced.

Fixed lens

* X100 line — These models have a fixed focal length 23mm prime lens and a hybrid electronic/ optical viewfinder in a traditional rangefinder body style. The line originated with the Fujifilm FinePix X100 released in March 2011. The X100 has an EXR CMOS sensor while the subsequent models use proprietary X-Trans sensors. the X100 line includes six models.
* X/ XF line (APS-C) — The X70, which debuted in early 2016, is similar to the X100 line in that it has a fixed prime lens and an X-Trans APS-C sensor. Differences include lack of a viewfinder, a wider angle lens, and a tilting screen. The X70's successor, the XF10 is similar, but relies on a Bayer sensor.

Interchangeable lens

* X-Pro line — The X-Pro series are essentially an X100 adapted to utilize interchangeable lenses. Like the X100 they have a hybrid electronic/ optical viewfinder. The first X-Trans sensor was introduced in the X-Pro1, which debuted in March 2012. Three X-Pro models have been produced .
* X-E line — The X-E models offer an interchangeable lens mount, rangefinder styling, X-Trans sensors and electronic viewfinders in a more compact package than the X-Pro line. five X-E cameras have been produced.
* X-M line — The X-M1 was released in 2013, followed by the X-M5 in 2024. This line omits a viewfinder, instead relying on the rear display. Due to this design, the X-M line is the smallest in the X series that uses interchangeable lenses and is still in production.
* X-A line – Like the X-M line, the X-A line does not have a viewfinder. The initial X-A1 model, the Fujifilm X-A1 which was introduced in 2013, is visually nearly identical to the X-M1 but has a different sensor. It utilizes a poly-carbonate body in place of a metal construction. The X-A line uses sensors equipped with a Bayer filter which uses a different pattern of color capturing pixels than the X-Trans filter used on the higher-end X series cameras. the line has since expanded to include seven models.
* X-T line — The X-T models represent the X series' first move away from the rangefinder styling after the earlier small-sensor X-S1. It adopt a DSLR-style layout with the electronic viewfinder above the lens mount and a more pronounced grip. The X-T models feature the same X-Trans sensors as the rest of the series besides the X-A line. The first X-T camera, the Fujifilm X-T1 was released in 2014 and has since expanded to include ten models. The X-T models can be further split into three sub-lines, with the single-digit models — X-T1, X-T2, etc. — targeted at professionals with features like weather sealing, the two-digit models — X-T10, etc. — aimed at advanced amateurs, and the three-digit models — X-T100, etc. — catering to budget-minded consumers and using Bayer rather than X-Trans sensors.
* X-H line — On the February 15, 2018 Fujifilm introduced the X-H1, offering a larger DSLR-style body than the X-T line along with a more aggressive grip and advanced features like sensor-shift image stabilization. Like the X-T line, the X-H Line relies on an X-Trans sensor. On May 31, 2022, Fujifilm introduced the X-H2s.
* X-S line (APS-C) — The X-S designation, which previously had been used for a small-sensor bridge camera, the X-S1, was revived with the X-S10 in October 2020. This new X-S camera is a DSLR-style offering which slots between the X-T3 and the X-T30 and features in-body image stabilization. It is differentiated from the X-T line in using a PASM-style command dial rather than the individual dials to set shutter speed and ISO used by many of the other X series lines.

One inch sensor

* X Half line Released on May 2025, the X Half (X-HF1) is the sole model in this category. It is a comhipact camera (240 g) with a fixed focal length 10.8mm prime lens, an optical viewfinder, and a lveever to mimic a film advance lever. Unlike other X series cameras, it only supports JPEG.

Small sensor

The following lines are united by their use of inch sensors measuring 8.8 by 6.6mm, with an aspect ratio of 4:3. In addition to a shared sensor size, all of these model lines utilized fixed (non-interchangeable) zoom lenses. They are listed here in the order in which the initial model of each type was introduced.

* X line (small sensor) — The X10 was the first model in this line when it debuted in late 2011. Models in this line feature a fixed zoom lens and a rangefinder-style body with an optical tunnel viewfinder. There have been three such models .
* X-S line (small sensor) — The X-S1 is the sole model in this category. It is a DSLR-styled, super-zoom, bridge camera with a fixed lens.
* XF line (small sensor) — The XF1 was released in September 2012. It is a compact, fixed lens zoom with no viewfinder and an EXR sensor. it has no direct successor, although the XQ line is very similar.
* XQ line — The XQ line are compact cameras with fixed zoom lenses, X-Trans sensors and no viewfinders. The initial model, the XQ1, came out in October 2013. The XQ2 is the only other model in the line to date.

Fujifilm X-mount lenses

All X-series cameras with interchangeable lenses use Fujifilm X-mount lenses. The first such lenses were introduced along with the X-Pro1 in early 2012. The original three lenses for the new system were a set of fixed-focal length prime lenses: an 18mm f/2 wide-angle, a 35mm f/1.4 standard and a 60mm f/2.4 macro lens. The first X-mount zoom lens, an 18-55mm f/2.8–4, was released later in 2012.

Fujifilm has released over 35 lenses for the system, all of which offer autofocus. In addition, a host of third-party companies have extended the selection to over 200 lenses, many of which are manual focus only.

X series accessories

A wide variety of accessories for X series cameras and X-mount lenses have been introduced, both from Fujifilm and from third party suppliers. These include lens mount adapters; conversion lenses; camera grips; camera cases; lens hoods, caps, and filters; flashes and flash accessories; microphones; remote releases; and batteries and chargers.

Lens adapters

Due to the short 17.7mm flange focal distance of the Fujifilm X mount, lenses from a vast array of other systems can be adapted for use on X series cameras. An adapter to allow use of Leica M-mount lenses on X-mount cameras is offered by Fujifilm. This adapter provides a way to set the focal length of the lens which will appear in image Exif info, and correct for common color shift and vignetting problems when using M-mount lenses on digital cameras.

Conversion lenses

*Wide conversion lens WCL-X100

Camera grips

*Fujifilm hand grip HG-XPro1

Camera cases
