Amazing image quality for a compact camera
There's lots of detail due to the 20.1MP sensor, the images are sharp, offer a reasonable tonal range with S-Log's color profile allowing you to recover more dynamic range in post and the 24-70mm equivalent lens is sharp throughout the available focal length with all aperture settings.

Con
Lens range can be limiting
The camera has a 24-70mm equivalent lens. Other compact point and shoot cameras often have between 24-100mm and 24-120mm equivalent focal length lenses.

Flicker detection
The camera can detect flickering light sources and sync up with them to shoot at peak brightness in order to avoid underexposing the image by accident.
See More
Top
Con
Dynamic range could be better
According to tests performed by DxOmark 760D has 11.96 stops of dynamic range in print and 11.16 stops on screen for images taken at 100 ISO while cameras in this price range commonly push 14 in print and 13 on screen. Dynamic range is the range of brightness that a camera can capture. Detail in parts of the scene that are outside of the camera's dynamic range will be lost.

Can record HDR video in real time
At the expense of giving up 1080p and switching to 720p as well as giving up manual control, you can increase the dynamic range of video.
See More
Top
Con
Lacks AF microadjustment option
Autofocus microadjustment is intended to fine tune the point where the camera focuses. If the camera consistently focuses slightly in front or behind the intended point, microadjustments allow you to fix that. 760D lacks this ability.

You simply tap the screen to manually set the AF point.
See More
Top
Con
Poor subject tracking in live mode
Subject tracking for the camera is somewhat unreliable. It works well if the subject is well isolated from the scene, but quickly becomes unreliable in crowded scenes.
See More
Top
Pro
Reasonable continuous AF for video
760D uses 19-point cross-type autofocus and has a hybrid sensor that combines contrast detection autofocus and phase detection autofocus. For continuous AF tracking while filming the camera first approximates the focus using phase detection, then uses contrast detection to more accurately adjust the focus. It performs well with set AF points for tracking, less so using subject tracking.

Con
Touchscreen can't be used with regular gloves
Because the touchscreen is capacitive instead of pressure-sensitive you either have to use your fingers or special touchscreen gloves to interact with the touchscreen.

Fantastic pictures
Fujifilm’s X-Trans sensor enables the X-T2 to take fantastic pictures. Images consistently feature great detail, contrast and colour. The end result are images that have lifelike colors, great contrast and require little to no post processing.
See More
Top
Con
No touchscreen
Touchscreens are common features on a variety of similar cameras. While the X-T2 has analog controls these have a tendency to slow down one's workflow.
See More
Top
Pro
Excellent video quality
The X-T2 is able to capture 4k video at 30 fps and HD video at 60 fps. By capturing footage at a higher resolution then downscaling it to 4k, X-T2 produces very detailed video. Additionally, with its F-log colour mode, the X-T2 is able to capture even more dynamic range. The inclusion of a built in micro HDMI port as well as 3.5 mm audio jack allows for external devices to be connected as well. As such, the X-T2 is ideally set up to produce fantastic content.
See More
Top
Con
No image stabilization
Optical image stabilization is not built into X-T2 so a lens that comes with image stabilization will have to be purchased separately. Fujifilm's X-Mount lens system has several to choose from.

Excellent low light performance
The Fujifilm X-T2 features great sensitivity in low light conditions due to its great sensor quality and excellent image processing. This makes it a great investment if shooting locations include clubs, concerts or other dimly lit areas.

Great build quality
The X-T2 is a rugged camera whose body is both dust and moisture resistant. Additionally, it has been rated to work in temperatures as low as -10 degrees Celsius. Photographers that have used this on shoots have testified to its reliability in poor weather conditions.
