Fujifilm has just announced X-T200, an affordable entry-level mirrorless camera. It’s the successor to the X-T100, which was launched two years ago, and it brings some improvements over its older cousin. With this camera, Fuji targets both photographers and filmmakers, bringing together some features that both groups of creatives will find useful. So, let’s dive in and see what Fuji brings us in its latest camera, and how it differs from the X-T100.
There are many similarities between the new X-T200 and its predecessor. Just like the X-T100, the X-T200 is targeted primarily at newbies. There is a 24 MP APS-C CMOS sensor, the same film simulations, the same ISO range of 200 to 12,800 (extended 100 to 51,200). The biggest change is in the design, particularly the LCD screen. It’s not only larger, but it also has a swivel design with 0-180° outward and -90°/+180° rotation. It can also be hidden when it’s not flipped out.
When it comes to the video, there have been some significant improvements over the X-T100. First of all, it shoots 4K that isn’t 15fps, that sure is a plus. The X-T200 shoots UHD 4K at 24fps or 30fps, so you can actually use it. It also shoots Full HD recording at up to 60 fps. It also uses electronic stabilization for videos, which is another improvement over the X-T100.
