What I put on my X-S20

The accessories I'd buy again. Links open Amazon in your country.

Lenses

Kit zoomX mount

Fujifilm XC15-45mmF3.5-5.6 OIS PZ

The zoom on the 3D model: 23–69mm equivalent, a power zoom for smooth video, and a pancake-thin size when retracted. Buy it as the X-S20 kit for the best price.

PancakeX mount

Fujifilm XF27mmF2.8 R WR

A 40mm-equivalent pancake that makes the X-S20 a small everyday camera, weather-sealed.

Fast primeX mount

Fujifilm XF35mmF1.4 R

The classic 50mm-equivalent lens with soft, glowing rendering wide open. Great for portraits and low light.

Menu simulator

A working copy of the X-S20 menu, laid out like the owner's manual: every tab, page and item. Click an item, or hover the simulator and use your arrow keys. Turn the mode dial above the screen to switch between photo modes, C1–C4 and movie (MOVIE and Vlog switch to the movie menus, just like the camera); press DRIVE for drive modes. Each item explains what it does and what to set it to.

      Menu names and descriptions follow the official X-S20 owner's manual. Starting values in the simulator are typical defaults and may differ from your camera. Recommendations are mine.

      Mode dial

      Every position on the mode dial

      The X-S20 has a proper mode dial on top, from full AUTO to manual, four custom banks and two movie modes. Pick a position to see what it does and when to use it.
