The image quality results from the X- E3 are identical to those from the X- Pro2, X-T2 and X-T20. This isn’t a huge shock given that the X- E3 has the same X-Trans CMOS III sensor and X Processor Pro. As the detail recorded by the X- E3’s sensor is comparable to that recorded by the X- Pro2 and X-T2 models, it is a suitable back-up camera for anyone who already owns one of these models but admires the X- E3’s design and styling. The noise performance is impressive, too, with ISO 3200 and ISO 6400 being eminently usable when working in poor light.
