Fujifilm X-M1 Series X

[Any Tech]

Hi, i am looking to buy a nice camera, i need it to have a moveable screen, i will be using it to video a lot of moving about so it should have good quality videoing especially motion and i would prefer if it could connect to a screen while videoing. and i do not want to spend more than £80 so i do not mind second hand, and it should have a detachable lens.

I found this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fujifilm-X-M1-Series-X-16-3MP-Digital-Camera-Silver/174386527711?hash=item289a3f3ddf%3Ag%3AcB8AAOSw1r1fMBUY&LH_Auction=1

Would you recomend it?

I have the XA20 which I believe is pretty much the same aside from the XA series sharpens images a bit more severly and the XA 20 has a touchscreen. For video though I'd take my iPhone over it, it only does 1080p30 or 720p60 and aside from the ability to put lenses on (which are expensive) it really can't match a solid phone. For stills it crushes them but for video maybe look at something from Sony like the A6000 something like that. I can post videos and photos from the camera and phone if you'd like

Hi @Lord Vile, i do not have a smartphone and do not plan on getting one anytime soon, so i definatly can not use that. The sony is way to expensive, are you able to maybe send me a link for a fujifilm x-m1 for a good price around £80ish in the UK or maybe even the sony if you recomend it, thanks a lot!

Here's a link to a video https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Xn7knWC7K4znVWPS2Gb5PsyhCRrdSnDh/view?usp=sharing only a close range of a coke can but it shows the resolution etc, bear in mind I have a different lens than the one on ebay and it has a wider aperture and no OIS. I don't use it for video I use it for stills. 

 

Also here's a hasty Still from it:

Mines an XA20 but quality wise they're pretty much the same, some software tweaks, a hotshot on the XM1 and a touchscreen on the XA20 is pretty much it.

If 1080p 30 FPS or 720p 60 FPS is good enough for you then it's not bad, the Autofocus isn't the fastest and I think there's a time limit for how long it'll record at once. Personally for video I'd probably go Sony but if that's not in the price range then it's not an option.

Well that doesn't have an interchangeable lens and only does 1080p 30 and 720p 30. Maybe look at the Sony A5000?
