Hi, I'm looking to buy a general-purpose camera, preferably a Fuji due to its good SOOC colors. I've never had a DSLR or mirrorless before - only bridge cameras, point-and-shoots and crappy phones. Is this a good option for a beginner?

The kit contains a Fujifilm X-T100 camera and a FUJINON XC 15-45mm F3.5-5.6 OIS PZ lens, both used, for 400€. It's hard to find second-hand Fujis here in Romania so I don't have a lot of options for this brand.

I'm buying the camera for indoor pics of my cats, selfies, travel and events. Proper color straight out of the camera is very important to me. Fun filters are nice to have. I miss the superzoom from bridge cameras but I know that's hard to get on DSLRs & mirrorless.

Do you have any advice for me, please?

Fair enough - though with those goals I would see what smart phones with decent cameras in your price range can do, as an alternative approach. To me, fun includes "always with you" - I may have a very nice "proper" camera, but it's not something I can stick in my pocket :)
