Fujifilm's X-T2 is the perfect mirrorless camera for photo geeks. It seems like that's true of every camera that Fujifilm releases, but the X-T2 is a refined sequel to the X-T1 that improves on its predecessor in the ways that matter most: resolution, autofocus, and ease of use.

Previous experience might have led you to expect the X-T2 to be a DSLR-shaped variant of the X-Pro2. This hasn't proved to be the case, with Fujifilm pulling out all the stops to address the system's two significant weak points: autofocus and video.

Excellent image quality in both Raw and JPEG; Superb JPEG color options; Direct controls give engaging shooting experience; Reassuringly solid build quality; AF point joystick speed up operation; Greatly improved autofocus; especially in terms of tracking; Dual hinged rear screen suits both stills...

Fuji sent a warning to the DSLR market with the release of the X-T1 back in 2014, and the X-T2 is here to stamp its mark on the professional photography market and dish out some more killer blows to DSLRs.

I had purchased this camera to replace my Canon 700D, and it is simply such a massive upgrade and much more enjoyable camera to use. Apart from the resolution increase, I've noticed much better dynamic range and colour rendition. Using the camera is very enjoyable too.

The X-T2 is Fujifilm's second top-end compact system camera, designed to sit alongside the X-Pro2. It features a 24.3-megapixel X-Trans CMOS sensor, which is APS-C size. Like other X-Trans CMOS sensors, it doesn't have an anti-aliasing filter in front of it, making it well equipped to deal with...

It took us about three minutes to fall in love with the Fujifilm X-T1 . So when we were first shown the Fujifilm X-T2 back in July it only took us about three seconds. In many ways the X-T2 is the most advanced compact system camera offering we've seen, its goal firmly set on being the best...

Comprehensive continuous autofocus system not seen by other CSCs to date; great electric viewfinder; optional grip enhances performance considerably; tweaked design with larger dials but retaining retro appeal

Still no touchscreen; 3-directional LCD screen switch is fussy; toggles around dials are too small; need grip for many higher-end features; no price just yet; could do with some more detailed single autofocus options

The Fujifilm X-T1 was a high watermark for mirrorless camera design and has remained among my favourite cameras since its launch in 2014. Its video capture wasn't up to much and rival cameras were faster, but sublime ergonomics meant taking photos was an absolute pleasure and inspecting the...

Best-in-class ergonomics; Outstanding image quality; Capable 4K video mode

Burst and video autofocus could be better; A little slow in normal use
