Fujifilm’s new X Half camera is quirky, limited, and kind of fascinating. It ditches modern features like RAW, EVF and stabilization in favor of film-like charm, a small 1-inch sensor, built-in filters, and a digital “film advance” lever. It’s not for everyone — (mainly because of its price) but if you love capturing scrappy, spontaneous moments, this might be your new favorite camera. Here’s what it’s like to use.
