I’m a Fujifilm photographer, and these are the best camera deals I’ve seen all year on compact cameras and retro mirrorless

Fujifilm’s love for retro and compact designs has propelled the camera brand into the spotlight. But since the brand’s rise in popularity, as a Fujifilm photographer, I’ve been finding it exceedingly challenging to spot a discount on Fujifilm gear.

Ahead of Memorial Day, however, several camera bodies and lenses have dropped in price. Several cameras have dipped to the lowest price that I’ve seen all year, including the X-T50, X-H2, and X-H2 S, while the X-T5 and X-S20 have returned to the lowest price of 2026.

I have two Fujifilm cameras in my camera bag – these are the Fujifilm deals that I recommend.

Fujifilm's budget cameras will often leave out the stabilization, and the cheapest choices, like the X-M5, even leave out the viewfinder, but the X-S20 is a budget choice that still has all of those features intact. The X-S20 doesn’t have Fujifilm’s latest sensor, but the 26.1MP sensor is no slouch either – in fact, it’s the same resolution as my own X-T4 that I still use today. If your budget is tight but you still want that viewfinder and stabilization, the X-S20 is a good option.

The body-only is discounted by $100 down to $1399, which is the best price that I’ve seen all year. But, I think the best deal is actually the X-S20 that’s paired with the XF 23mm f/2.8. That’s a $500 pancake lens, but it’s only $150 more than buying the body-only version.

Fujifilm’s tiny film-inspired compact camera

The Fujifilm X100VI is too trendy for deals – but the tiny and retro X Half sits at a solid discount right now. The X Half mixes a one-inch sensor with a design so focused on the retro look that there’s even a “film” wind dial. The X Half is meant to bring joy back into photography, with plenty of film-inspired tools, but no RAW mode for editing. It’s a solid grab-and-go camera. Fujifilm recently cut $200 off the list price, and now there’s a sale price on top of that, making this the lowest price ever on the X Half.
