THE KIT JOHNOWNS

FUJIFILM X-T3 The X-T3 is a 26.1-megapixel camera with a back- illuminated X-Trans CMOS sensor working with the X-Processor 4. It’s capable of outstanding colour and ISO performance with a native range from 160 to 12,800, expandable at the top end to ISO 51,200. It boasts dual SD card slots and has a significantly more effective and faster autofocus system compared with its predecessors and can shoot up to 20fps in high continuous mode at full resolution. Add a 3.69 million dot EVF, three-inch 1.04 million dot touchscreen and an impressive array of professional video features, and the X-T3 is a camera that compares with the very best.

XF16MM F/1.4 R WR This fast maximum aperture prime wide-angle lens has a weather-resistant build, and its compact body form means it’s ideal for landscape and travel photography. Its advanced 13 elements in 11 groups construction means you get pin-sharp pictures even when you use it wide open, making it great for astro work when there is not much light around and you have to make the most of what’s there.

XF100-400MM F/4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR Perfect for action and nature photography, this lens gives the 35mm format equivalent focal length range of 152-609mm. Its advanced optical design of 21 elements features five ED lenses and one Super ED lens to minimise chromatic aberration, which can be a serious issue with telephoto lenses, and to help deliver high- resolution images with plenty of contrast. An optical image stabiliser has a 5EV benefit to help sharp shooting with slower shutter speeds.
