The Fujifilm X-Pro3 is a digital camera with a film soul – and I want its strange screen to come to more cameras

Fujifilm x-pro3.

Out of all the digital cameras that I’ve worked with, the Fujifilm X-Pro3 felt the most steeped in film tradition. The mirrorless camera’s hidden screen and hybrid viewfinder forced me to slow down in a way that I haven’t experienced much outside of real film. Yet, the Fujifilm X-Pro3 has been discontinued, and fans are still waiting on an X-Pro4. But if there’s one thing that I hope Fujifilm brings to more cameras, it’s the X-Pro3’s strangely beautiful screen.

While Fujifilm is one of the brands best-known for retro looks, the X-Pro3 arguably takes that the farthest. The viewfinder has a hybrid design that overlays digital information on an optical viewfinder that feels far different from most digital cameras.
