X-E3 (Black) + 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR XF Lens
Mirrorless Digital Camera Kit
A stylish and versatile rangefinder mirrorless digital camera, the X-E3 from Fujifilm features an updated sensor and processor inside a familiar body. It uses a 24.3MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS III sensor that has omitted an optical low-pass filter, and an X-Processor Pro image processor to capture sharp, high-resolution images. In comparison to conventional pixel patterns, the X-Trans design more closely mimics the organic nature of film in order to produce nuanced colours and smooth tonal transitions, while also reducing moiré and aliasing.
Together this impressive sensor and processor combination also provides a continuous shooting rate up to 14 fps, an extended sensitivity range to ISO 51200, and the ability to record UHD 4K/30 video or Full HD 1080p/60 video. When recording images or video, Film Simulation modes can be used to creatively enhance your footage. Video can also be output via HDMI to an external recorder or monitor, and a mic jack is featured for working with an external microphone.
Benefitting these features, optimised continuous autofocus performance provides improved subject tracking and focusing accuracy. Using both contrast- and phase-detection methods, the hybrid autofocus system features 91 total points, which can be divided into 325 total areas. Approximately 50% side-to-side and 75% top-to-bottom of the frame is covered by phase-detection points. A dedicated Focus Lever provides faster, more intuitive control over selecting specific focus points while shooting.
The camera is finished with the same classic physical design of its predecessor, with physical shutter speed and exposure compensation dials. This physical exposure compensation dial now features a C position to allow an expanded compensation range when working with the control dials. Compose your images using the high-resolution 2.36m-dot electronic viewfinder or 3.0" 1.04m-dot rear touchscreen LCD that also offers focus point selection and menu navigation. Built-in WiFi with Bluetooth connectivity is also included for low-power image transferring and remote camera control from a linked mobile device.
Here, the X-E3 is kitted with the XF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR Lens, a telephoto zoom lens with a 152-609mm equivalent focal length range for Fujifilm X-series mirrorless cameras. A twin linear AF motor ensures fast and smooth autofocus performance, and optical image stabilisation offers a five stop-effective minimisation of the appearance of camera shake for sharper handheld images.
A focus limiter switch on the side of the lens barrel lets you constrain the focusing range to either the full range of 5.7' to infinity, or from 16.4' to infinity for faster focusing performance with distant subjects. A zoom-lock switch prevents unwanted zoom creep from occurring and also can be used to maintain the same zoom position while shooting.
Optically it incorporates five extra-low dispersion elements and one Super extra-low dispersion element, to reduce colour fringing and chromatic aberrations throughout the zoom range, and a nine-blade diaphragm produces pleasing bokeh. This is complimented by weather-sealed construction and a flourine-coted front element to guard against dust and moisture. The included lens hood incorporates a sliding window to allow easier adjustment of rotating filters, such as a polariser, while the hood is installed, and a removable, rotating tripod collar allows for well-balanced mounting and shooting when working from a tripod or monopod.
