The Fujifilm X Half is here, and it’s divided the hardcore photography community like every brave and bold new camera should. I didn’t have to look far to find myself tumbling through the echo chamber of photography social media, hearing grumbles about the specs, film-centric design and price.
But what the naysayers are forgetting is that the Fujifilm X Half isn’t aimed at serious camera enthusiasts – even though some will be unable to resist its allure. It’s not meant to be powerful or even practical. It has a higher calling: to foster the next generation of photographers, and that’s a very noble pursuit indeed.
