The Fujifilm X-M1 is a new compact system camera that's designed to expand the appeal of the X-system. The retro-styled X-M1 offers the same image sensor and lens mount as the more expensive X-Pro1 and X-E1 cameras in a smaller, lighter body. The X-M1 has a built-in flash, new 16-50mm kit lens, wi-fi connectivity, tilting LCD screen and of course a more affordable price tag. Read our Fujifilm X-M1 review to find out if it succeeds in bringing Fujifilm's mirrorless range to the masses...

If you’re looking for a compact interchangeable lens camera, Fujifilm’s X-M1 is a good buy, thanks to the terrific picture quality produced by the X-Trans CMOS sensor. Video capture and autofocus could be better, otherwise it’s an excellent camera.

When Fujifilm introduced its X-system back in January 2012, it took the unusual step of starting out with a top-end professional model - the retro-looking but technologically innovative X-Pro1, which features the company's unique 'hybrid' optical/electronic viewfinder. Nine months later it followed this up with the enthusiast-orientated X-E1, which offers much the same feature set in a smaller body, but makes do with a purely electronic viewfinder. Now, nine months on again, comes the latest model: the distinctly mid-range-looking, miniaturized X-M1.

It’s been nearly two years since Fujifilm launched its pioneer X-system mirrorless camera to a surprised market. That model, the awkwardly named X-Pro1, has been succeeded by a run of other models. So now we have the X-M1, missing a few niceties from the launch model, but undeniably an X-system camera. And, in some ways, […]

A compact, relatively light X-system camera with the same sensor as the X-Pro1 and X-E1. It comes with built-in Wi-Fi and a generous suite of scene-based automatic exposure modes.
