Fujifilm’s X Half is even more exotic with a $300 price cut

Fujifilm X half digital camera It’s not designed to replace the main camera, though you might be forgiven for assuming that it was at its ridiculous $850 price tag. However, the company recently lowered the MSRP to $649.99, and is now discounting an additional $100 through June 28. This means you can get the X Half in its base configuration for around $549 Amazon, B&H Photosand Best buy. Adorama It’s also discounting it at the same price and offering a free accessory bundle that includes a 64GB SanDisk SD card and camera bag.

The X Half is not like most other digital cameras. It’s a light point-and-shoot camera designed to evoke the feel of a half-frame film camera, a camera that can shoot 18-megapixel still images that you can style in a variety of ways. You can add film simulation, filters and grain. It is also possible to use digital binaries, with the option to include the date in the images. In short, it’s incredibly fun, but it lacks features you might be used to in modern cameras, including the ability to capture RAW images, a hot shoe for attaching accessories, and an electronic viewfinder.

When we published Our practical impressions Previous last year edge Supervising producer Vjeran Pavic called X Half whimsical and refreshing. The 1-inch vertical sensor and 32mm equivalent fixed f/2.8 lens can capture great shots, but the pocket-friendly camera was designed with point-and-shoot simplicity in mind. Pavić enjoyed taking “quick, sporadic pictures” with it, as did Antonio Di Benedetto, even if he was stopped at the original price.
