While we’re generally fans of Fujifilm, it’s no secret that the X-T100 wasn’t exactly our favorite camera. While it shot great pictures, it lacked performance, and ease of use suffered as a result. Those are exactly the things that Fujifilm looks to be addressing with the new X-T200, which offers 3.5 times the processing power and a new autofocus system.
The $700 (body only) X-T200 is Fujifilm’s new entry point into the X-T line, its series of DSLR-like mirrorless cameras with a center-mounted electronic viewfinder. Unlike the X-T30 and X-T3 above it — two of our favorite mirrorless cameras in their classes — the X-T200 does not use the 26-megapixel X-TRANS sensor, instead using a more traditional Bayer sensor with 24 megapixels.
Fujifilm states, however, that it is a different sensor than the similar one found in the X-T100, likely because this new one features on-chip phase-detection autofocus. Combined with the extra processing power, that should give the X-T200 a big step up in autofocus speed, hopefully erasing our biggest complaint about the X-T100.
Video has also seen a significant improvement, now up to 4K at 30 frames per second. While the X-T100 could technically shoot 4K, it was limited to just 15 fps, which looked more like stop-motion animation. The X-T200 also features a new form of electronic stabilization that uses a gyro sensor to measure camera movement. We’ll have to wait to see how well it works, but it should be a big improvement for casual use.
The camera looks largely the same, with a pop-up flash and vari-angle screen, but it now incorporates a small handgrip. For sticklers, this may ruin the ultra-minimalist aesthetic of the X-T100 (which offered an optional screw-on grip), but the X-T200 is actually two ounces lighter despite the built-in grip, at 13.05 total.
Beyond the camera, Fujifilm also introduced a new prime lens, the XC 35mm F2. Part of the lower-cost XC line, this lens uses a plastic mount and is meant for novice photographers. It is the first prime lens in the series.
At just $199, it is half the cost of the metal-mount XF 35mm F2, and gives beginners a chance to experience the depth of field control of a prime lens that simply doesn’t exist on affordable zooms.
While the XC lens doesn’t offer the weather-sealing of its XF counterpart, it appears to use a similar optical design of nine elements in six groups, including two aspherical elements. In terms of image quality-to-price ratio, we expect it will be very good.
Fujifilm built the X series on the backbone of strong prime lenses. Finding a way to bring that experience to a lower price point may attract new customers who want a professional look without the professional budget.
Fujifilm just gave its most popular instant camera a serious digital upgrade. The Instax Mini Evo 2 now comes with a touchscreen, larger sensor, and a video feature that captures four seconds before each photo. It is set to arrive by the end of November for $289.95.

Full-frame cameras tend to be chunky beasts, but Sigma wants to prove that big imaging doesn't need a big body. Enter the Sigma FP2, the successor to its tiny, boxy fp mirrorless camera. It keeps the same modular design but packs in some serious upgrades, including a 24.5-megapixel partially stacked full-frame sensor, improved autofocus, 6K video recording, and 70GB of built-in storage. Sigma calls it the world's smallest full-frame camera, and while it might be tiny, the same cannot be said for its price tag.
Sigma FP2 brings faster shooting and 6K video
A phone thermal camera is one of those tools you don’t think you need until the first time it saves you from an expensive problem, and the Thermal Master P3 just got easier to try. For Halloween, it’s discounted with the code THERMCAM10, a 10% cut that works out to $107 off the total. It’s also fresh off a win at the 2026 Tom’s Guide AI Awards for best phone thermal camera, which is the kind of third-party nod that separates a serious tool from the cheap clip-on sensors that flood this category.
