Reviewers have noted the X70's similarity to the Fujifilm X100T and to the Ricoh GR II.[1][3] The X70 combines an X-Trans CMOS II sensor with an EXR processor II, and is the smallest of Fujifilm's cameras to be equipped with the company's APS-C sensor. It shares some technology with the Fujifilm X100T (its sensor and auto focus system) but has a wider angle lens with a slower aperture, is smaller, lacks a built in viewfinder and has a tilting and fully upwards articulating touchscreen display.[1][2][3]
