    TESTIMONIAL

    The first thing I noticed about the X-T2 was Memory. Not the cameras memory or the storage memory but my Memory, or to be precise Memories. Holding the body reminded me of my early days as a photographer when holding a camera was like holding a well-engineered and thoughtful piece of equipment. It brought back the joy of simplicity and comfort, of possessing a camera just to make images and not as a status symbol. It made me long for the past but also happy to know that the feeling was still there, somewhere. My overall impression was of a considered and sympathetic camera that caters to both the serious amateur and the professional. Compact and yet rugged. It was fantastic to be using equipment that was so light in comparison to my standard DSLR kit yet producing large, sharp files with great colour rendition. With multiple bodies in tow I will be shooting a full assignments on the X-T2.
