Fujifilm telah mengumumkan kamera terbaru mirrorless mereka yaitu Fujifilm X-E3 yang merupakan penerus dari X-E2S. Kamera ini menggunakan sensor X-Trans 24.3MP dan mampu merekam video 4K. Fujifilm X-E3 merupakan update X-E2S dengan sejumlah perbaikan yang cukup signifikan.
X-E3 meminjam banyak perangkat kerasnya dari Fujifilm X-T20, termasuk sistem AF dengan 325 titik memiliki opsi AF Area All yang mampu mengaktifkan berbagai mode saat ukuran titik AF berubah. Kamera ini juga menggunakan dan memperbarui algoritma pelacakan subjek, diklaim lebih baik dalam melacak objek yang lebih kecil dengan waktu lebih cepat. Lampu flash pop-up seperti pendahulunya telah dihilangkan, namun lampu kilat EF-X8 disertakan dalam paket pembelian.
Perekaman video format 4K/30p diambil dengan keseluruhan permukaan sensor. Untuk Full HD 1080 bisa sampai 60p. X-E3 juga tetap menawarkan konektifitas Wi-Fi, dan menambahkan opsi untuk koneksi energi rendah Bluetooth secara konstan ke smartphone.
Layar lama LCD 3″ 1.04M-dot telah diupgrade ke layar sentuh (tetapi masih belum bisa diartikulasikan), dan fitur baru yang disebut Touch Function menempatkan kontrol sentuh yang dapat disesuaikan di ujung jari pengguna. Panel kontrol kehilangan tombol navigasi arah dan diganti dengan joystick AF.
Kamera Fujifilm X-E3 diperkirakan akan tiba pada bulan September dalam tiga konfigurasi kit: bodi saja seharga USD $900, dengan lensa 18-55mm seharga USD $1300, atau dengan lensa 23mm F2 R WR seharga USD $1150. Berikut spesifikasi, preview, gambar dan press release-nya.
