Fujifilm's mid-price mirrorless camera packs quite a punch
Rich and detailed images ; Tactile controls ; Excellent handling ; Advanced AF system ; Film simulation modes
Limited touchscreen control ; EVF magnification ; Battery life could be better
The X-T2 is one of our favourite cameras at the moment, and with the X-T20 Fujifilm has managed to distill many of these key features into a slightly more compact and affordable camera that's likely to hit the sweet spot for many photographers.

As a standalone camera, the X-T20 delivers the optimum image quality in our view. It's the same quality as you'll find from X-T2 or X-Pro2, which is
Exceptional image quality leads in its class ; Improved autofocus and operation compared to predecessor ; Great retro style ; Touchscreen controls ; Decent built-in finder and tilt-angle screen
Would still like a Pinpoint-style autofocus mode ; Are some cheaper competitors (Lumix G80 the prime example) ; No weather-proofing ; One card slot (which is poorly placed)
The Fujifilm X-T20's biggest issue is nothing to do with its own performance: it's the presence of the Panasonic Lumix G80, which can be bought with a lens for the same body-only price as this Fuji. That makes for a tough decision.

Is this the best pound-for-pound camera in the world?
Superb image quality ; Fast autofocus and good handling ; Reasonably affordable ; Touchscreen a nice new addition
Not weatherproof
The X-T20 nails the sweet spot between price and performance, and might just be the camera bargain of 2017

Housing an APS-C 24.3MP X-Trans CMOS III sensor, the X-T20 records both JPEG and 14-bit RAW stills and 4K, Full HD, and HD video. Capable of recording 14 fps with electronic shutter and 8 fps with mechanical shutter, the camera offers a wide range of...

A new mid-range compact system camera (CSC), the Fujifilm X-T20 is a smaller, lighter and cheaper version of the premium X-T2. With its retro style, 24Mp sensor and 4K video, has Fujifilm scrimped on features to make it more affordable? We compared...

We review the Fujifilm X-T20, like the mini X-T2, it offers almost all of the same features, including a 24mp sensor and 4K video, but at a lower price. But how does it perform?
The Fujifilm X-T20 offers a number of features from the more expensive X-T2, but at a lower price point, and without the weather-sealed camera body. For those that want the image quality from the 24 megapixel Fujifilm sensor, then the X-T20 certainly...

Borrowing heavily from the superb X-T2, the X-T20 offers professional power at a great value.
Expert review by : Vlad Savov (theverge.com)
The junior member of Fujifilm's high-end camera lineup might be the best
Fujifilm’s best image processing for less than $1,000 ; Rock-solid build and ergonomics ; Electronic viewfinder you’ll actually want to use ; Unrivaled lens ecosystem among mirrorless camera systems
Autofocus has improved, but still isn’t a strength ; Not the best choice for video recording ; Photography at this level is a pricey hobby
Expert review by : Jim Fisher (pcmag.com)
The mirrorless Fujifilm X-T20 delivers the same image quality and focus capabilities as the pricier X-T2, but drops weather sealing and some other pro features to hit a lower price point.
Expert review by : Jeff Keller (dpreview.com)
The Fujifilm X-T20 is a midrange SLR-styled mirrorless camera that serves as the younger sibling to the X-T2. While it may be cheaper than the X-T2, the little X-T20 still packs a big punch. Read review
Fujifilm's X-T20 takes the design and handling of the X-T10, adds many of the 'guts' of the X-T2, and stirs until a very competent mirrorless camera emerges. It offers the direct setting controls found on nearly all of Fujifilm X-series cameras that...
