Another new thing on the X-T200’s body is that the grip is permanently fixed. In addition, the size is more fitting to be grasped. The most prominent changes are also located on the camera screen. X-T200 has a larger screen.

The screen size is 3.5 inch 16: 9 aspect ratio. In addition, the screen on the Fujifilm X-T200 can be rotated sideways and in all directions (articulating screen). This screen can also be closed in when not in use. This touch screen is a large screen. Thus, there is no place for physical buttons other than the Menu and Back buttons.

At the top of the camera (top plate), there is a mode wheel, and two dial wheels to change setting. Two dial wheels on the right side of the camera, unfortunately a little tight / drag so it is difficult to rotate with one finger. Perhaps, this is Fuji’s effort so that the two dials are not easily dialed intentionally. But with use, this dial can also be more relaxed.

Specifications

Fujifilm X-T200 is equipped with advanced features. Equipped with a CMOS sensor with the ability to shoot up to 8 fps in burst mode. In addition, the model is equipped with a good autofocus system.

This is all thanks to the point or focus area that reaches 425 points with phase detection technology.

The reshuffle also feels drastic when talking about control buttons. Previously, the X-T100 used a 4-way button, now the X-T200 uses a joystick that is more practical and takes up less space on the back of the camera body.

This camera has an ISO range of 200-12,800 and sensitivity can be expanded up to 100-25,600 / 51,200. While the mechanical shutter speed reaches 1 / 4,000s and electronics 1 / 32,000 and the Bulb Mode offers the lowest speed of up to 60 minutes.

Video Capability

Fujifilm X-T200 is equipped with the ability to take videos well. This camera can record 4K resolution video. This is evidenced by the choice of HDR Video mode for image recording in high contrast situations.

In addition, the Device has a “Digital Gimbal Function” that uses a gyro sensor inside the camera body to help electronic stabilization when recording video. This feature utilizes a gyrosensor to predict hand tremors with the aim of producing a more stable video. But, this mode has its weaknesses, namely the autofocus is often hunting and slow.
