Like most of you, when I purchased my first camera, I spent many of hours on research. After all, cameras cost a lot of money, and they are extremely fragile. 

My previous experience on cameras included a GoPro, my iPhone, and a Canon Rebel SL2. So, I was fairly limited on my “camera smarts.” 

However, after numerous videos and a college photography class, I felt more confident with my photography skills. 

So, why Fujifilm when all of my other friends were shooting with Sony or Canon Cameras? 

For the time being, Fuji fit my price. Although their sensor is not the same size of the full-frame, I often do not take photos in low-light. So, I am more concerned about the colors. 

Additionally, the Fuji X-Series is made to be weather resistant. When flying from location to location, it is helpful to know I have a camera that can withstand some elements. 

Finally, I also appreciate the aesthetic the Fujifilm camera provides. It is a throwback to a simpler time.
