I’ve been shooting on this camera none stop since I got it and I love the image/functionality of it. My background: I’m a commercial video director with 7+ years of experience. I’ve already used this as a photo camera on a professional shoot.Pros:Cheap6.2K 10 bit video is amazingFilm simulations and color reproduction are top notchGreat lens optionsSuper tiny but still easy to holdFun pop up flashIBIS is greatCons:Buttons are small and there is limited customizationThe view finder and rear LCD could be betterOverall it’s a great camera for pros and beginners alike while being cheaper than the competitors.

As someone that has been wanting to get into photography for a while and is a total beginner, I debated back and forth on if I wanted to go with a Sony APS-C camera or a Fuji. I decided on the X-S20 and have been extremely happy! I really appreciate the film simulations and all photos posted were straight out of camera with zero editing. The camera is by no means perfect- the film selection dial and front command dial both feel pretty sloppy, autofocus can sometimes miss, and both the EVF and LCD screens do leave something to be desired. But you learn to live with those things and wind up not paying attention once you learn how to work around them.Overall, great camera for both photos and videos. My biggest request to Fuji is to give it more custom setting slots!!!

I opened the box, found some plastic film bags already crumpled, so looks like a returned product shipped to me although I bought a "new" one. I still gave it a try. Charged battery and ready to take some shots. Once put the camera close to myself, I heard very annoying audible noise, like fan noise, but I'm sure it's not fan noise, but audible noise generated by electronic components. I bought X-S20 since I want a lighter camera, I tried to listen to my other camera and didn't hear such noise at all. I'll not be able to survive this noise, so I'll return the camera, and will not give Fujifilm another try.

Typical Fuji Quality build. Has 26 megapixel sensor, but with the new 5 processor. enhanced auto focus, and sensor is compatible with ALL Fuji lenses. Light weight and great for travel Pics or Vloging. I actually like if better than my X H2. best video of any camera in its price range. Cons: no weather sealing, only a single card slot.

I wanted to absolutely love this camera, but it has a few detractors that made me return it in a day of testing. I bought it for filming outdoors in a farm/garden documenting capacity, but it just didn't cut it.PROS:-Image quality! This thing puts out beautiful photos and videos, especially with the built in film simulations which I loved. Plenty of options for video size, codec, etc. No slouch in this department-Form factor--nice and somewhat compact, although with a lens it is still larger than any M43 camera (obviously) and not much smaller than a full frame with a smaller lens. Maybe too small for some, but I have large hands and found it comfortable-Autofocus: Improved from their previous XS10 (From what I watched in reviews) and it did work quite well. Maybe not the best, but certainly very workable.-Auto & Vlog mode: if you don't want to fiddle with settings, this thing does great adapting to whatever lighting & lens situation you have going on. It uses AI to detect the scene and adjust exposure accordingly. This was nice for just mindless operation like you might do in any run of the mill vlog or talking head situation.CONS:-Overheating! This thing gets hot and fast. Filming at 80F for 8mins in FHD caused it to shut down due to overheating in standard heat management mode. If you up the mode--which to me feels like a gamble, you can get 50mins plus, but the camera gets wicked hot. They sell a fan attachment for $200, but it makes it so the screen has to be flipped out and now you went from a $1300 camera body to $1500 and still have no weather sealing or other improvements... For me it was a deal breaker, especially considering my use case.-Stabilization: while I heard it was better than anything else Fuji has done yet, it was still way too jerky for my liking, even with all of the stabilization options enabled. It made walk and talk footage feel nauseating for me. If you'll be doing tripod or gimble work, it won't matter. But since this thing is sold with a dedicated Vlog setting, I thought it was a huge oversight to have such jerky stabe.-No weather sealing. This is something is really annoying at this price point. My Lumix G85 even has it.Overall, a really solid camera, but with the lack of built in cooling fan and the jerky stabe, it just wasn't going to work for my long-term usage scenario. I opted to spend another $300 and get a Lumix S5II which is the best stabe in the business and has excellent video features as well as AF. I do miss the ease of getting a beautiful film look, but I guess I'll have to wait until Fuji does something about their stabe and cooling. And the S5II has a real time LUT feature that does a lot of what Fuji film simulation can do.
