Fujifilm 16-55 vs Fujifilm 18-55 / Which to buy
thank for you for your video, i was consider between 75 and 85. but after watching your video i know what i need. :)
Hi Anna! Glad you made a decision and that I could help. What did you choose in the end?
Hi! I'm considering using this camera for creating cinematic travel videos with some basic color grading. My focus will be on capturing landscapes and cityscapes, not on vlogging or taking selfie-style videos. I don't plan to speak to the camera. Given my specific needs, do you think this camera would be a more practical choice, or is the Osmo Pocket 3 worth the extra cost?
I think the Osmo Pocket is better! I didn’t have the chance to use it but from what I’ve seen it is better. If you don’t plan on shooting action scenes where you plant the camera on a car or dirt bike or stuff like that and don’t need weather proofing then osmo pocket 3 is better
Thanks!
That's some crazy sh**t It works for me and that's cool. You shall tag Location if possible. Thank you btw
Hey! Thanks for watching and commenting! Glad it works and you like it. Yeah, good idea about tagging the location. I'll do that.
Excellent video 😮!
Thanks so much! Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Great video! And cool hat, <3 IC3PEAK
Thanks man! The hat rocks, right?
which city are you shooting in ?
Bari, Italy
lovely video! got the wr version of the lens last summer; it has become my favorite focal length and the first option to take whenever I don't need something more specialized
Thanks a lot! Yeah it feels really like a natural choice, and I've only had it for a few days
thank you! Ive seen dozens of videos, but I guess most people use selfie sticks to compare, so therefore focus issue was never mentioned. Don't mind clowns in the comments
Thanks! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Do you have to use profanity to do a video!
It looks good asf!
I think Insta360's advertising could be better. I was able to find an adaper and 4 close up filters for about $23, US on Amazon. I am using primarily on my motorcycle so I really never want anything that close to me. I just figure you should have to option if needed. These filters should work well enough for me but I am not an expert. I appreciate the video as it made me aware of the issue. It's likely the adapter and filters weren't available onlline at the time this video was shot. Things move quickly today.
Hey! Yeah, for sure the ads should have been clearer. And yes at the time the video was shot, in the beginning the camera came out, there were not too many options for adapters available. Anyway it’s not the most ideal thing but if all you do is adventure films on the bike in which you don’t really need to get close to the camera to speak to somebody then it is a very good camera!
Cool vid. Can you make a how to stream with the Insta360 X4 video. Maybe show some trouble shooting...
I still have to figure out a few things myself but yeah, it’s an interesting topic. Ill definitely try to cover it.
ruclips.net/video/n8sz8F3zvt8/видео.htmlsi=GebPR0Mk4u0aWKEH this guy does panning shots on his gimbal 🤯 But to your question, I prefer panning with is off and monopod on if it’s telephoto. I put it 45 degrees out to the left side off the lens collar point, and use it as a handle. Elbows locked to the chest and rotating my upper body. But I’m not shooting formula racing from the curb ;)
So you cannot watch this one? I had a problem with the other two, but this one should work in theory l. I even had a few comments on it. But anyway this is the first X4 firmware for live-streaming I think it needs some fixing. I’ll try again tomorrow
I tried to watch, but it just kept buffering for me. Hopefully, next time man!
You are absolutely hilarious and truthful,, so refreshing to see your back and forth comments, always questioning many important features. I give you big thumbs up.
Thanks a lot for the feedback! Yeah, I try to reply to all the comments, at least for the moment they’re not too many so I can actually take the time and properly answer to a person that also took the time to watch and comment. It’s the least I can do!
Sigma 100-400mm f2.8??
i don't have that issue 40cm is perfect for me down scale the sharpness to average that's how I do it and the ace pro works well the downside is storage on my phone and my laptop doesn't hold up to good with the insta360 studio all and all the ace pro is the best action camera that i ever had and the manual settings for photos works well enough I work in 1920x1080 by 30fp/60fp and the pure video mode works great for me ps work with the sweetspot of the lens my only problem is phone storage and laptop storage and I don't need 2,7k 4k 6k 8k the files get too big to work with for me form all the action cams I had this is the best your camera needs are just different I do e bike rides metal detecting and review gear and it works just fine for me especially since I started over with my channel and use the ace pro only for it for my needs just fine
That’s interesting! Idk if it is my model or something. Most reviews (not sponsors obv) say the same thing, that it does not focus at 40 but goes over.
just yesterday I was testing viewpoints for metal detecting and setup the ace pro on a little tripod selfie stick well within 40cm give or take 1920x1080 30fp meter mode matrix sharpness average and from what I could see once I watched it on my phone was cristal clear and did test on my bureau small letters become out of focus yes but the bigger letters on my t-shirt where clear my face also and all give or take within 40cm and I did noticed when I film myself I tend to have it a little further away from me don't like it to close but keep in mind it's still an action camera but an advanced one perfect no but what it does it does it good so what it does is that to your needs yes or no ???? that's the question right and knowing how to work around things and making good use of all the setting possibility's are key but never less from a action camera point of view it's darn good perfect sure not I wish and it's the need of person that buy's it for me it's more than enough ps if you want full on super blue-ray clarity straight up in to your face up close and personal around this date there are options for the ace pro but probably you need something else and than it's not a action camera you need just wait we live in interesting times maybe something comes out soon that'll blow our minds insta360 is definitely on the right path
I know this video was posted a year ago at this point, but genuinely thank you so much. I'm about to transition to Fuji after about 7 years of having a Nikon and only 2 lenses, the kit 18-55 (which I literally never used for how awful it was) and a 35 f/1.8. My budget even buying everything used will only let me buy 2 lenses, and I'm traveling so I know I'll absolutely want the 18-55 for versatility and especially wider shots, having the peace of mind that I've heard it's a very good "kit" lens at its price. But I was SO conflicted about the second lens being the 35mm f/2 or the 23mm f/2. Buying the 35 again would mean staying with what I know is my comfort zone and a focal length I absolutely dominate and know I can work with comfortably...but not really introducing any big changes to my photography. Or going for the 23 and trying something new, while risking not liking it as much knowing pictures can look a lot like they were taken on a smartphone and being stuck with that decision. I was already leaning towards buying the 35 and the 18-55, and just using that one at 23 when I felt like exploring it, and this video helps cement that choice. A lot. I've heard countless reviewers talk about how soft and hazy the 23mm is when used at f/2 anyway, which made it feel like even less of a good choice. Why get a lens with a nice, wide aperture if you can't even reliably use it wide open? I'm curious, when using the 18-55 zoomed in at 23, what's the minimum aperture? I know at 18mm it's f/2.8, so I'm guessing somewhere around f/3.2? Again, thank you so much, I hadn't really found a video of exactly this situation and it's great to see someone else doing it. Also your video comparing the 2 lenses was incredibly insightful and helpful as well. Cheers!
Hi! Thanks so much for taking the time watch and comment. I really appreciate it and I am really glad you found it interesting. Since making this video I actually sold the 18-55 and got the 16-55. But from what I remember yes it should be around 3.2 when shot at 23mm. Before buying the 23mm maybe just get the 18-55. Shoot for a couple of weeks or even a month daily with the 23mm and see how much you enjoy. For me in the beginning shooting at 23(35mm) was hard especially if coming from the 35mm(50mm). It takes a while to get used to it. If money is not a problem get the 23mm, use it for a while and if you don't like it buy the 35mm and sell the 23mm without having to wait to sell the 23 first. Otherwise just get the 18-55 and shoot for a month at 23 and see how you feel. For the softness, listen I have come to realise that if you don't shoot for clients that pay for those images and you only do it for yourself or IG or socials in general it is not even worth it. Most of the time you see people adding grains and reducing clarity to get the "filmic" look (guilty of that myself). Both 23 and 35 F2 will be a little bit soft when shot at F2 compared to the newer models. When I made the switch I did it because I knew I would be shooting conferences in super low light and I needed the 1.4 otherwise I would say either 23 or 35 will do just fine in terms of image quality.
Gar nicht mal so gut
Oh well, you do what you can with what you have
Great review and I appreciate the honesty. I have a couple of their 360 cameras and love them, and wanted an action/vlogging camera to take on my shoots. It sounds like I will wait for the next version and HOPEFULLY they will see the outcry about the focal length and fix that. Other than that it sounds like this model would be perfect for what I need.
Yeah, the camera is pretty good with the exception of the focusing distance! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.
You confused the minimum focus values. The minimum focus distance of the Ace Pro is 1.3ft (40 cm). The Ace has 1.9ft (60 cm)!
No, I know, but in reality, idk if it is just my model but this one focuses at 60cm. And honestly if you watch other non sponsored videos you'll have people complaining about the same issue.
I can see it being sharp at 40 cm on your ruler
I do not recommend this camera; it seriously has a focusing problem. GoPro 5 is seven generations older than this camera but has better focus. It is definitely sponsored advertising on social media, and I repeat, my seven-generation-old GoPro 5 takes clearer photos than this camera. This is not a software issue. The Leica lens thing is a complete scam in compact cameras. Having a Leica lens doesn't mean anything. It takes muddy/blur photos (I use it with housing for underwater) and has focusing issues. Research wherever you want; everyone complains about the same thing. I was going to buy the GoPro 12; I was misled and am very disappointed. I can't comment on outdoor videos, but it is definitely not suitable for underwater use. We should use gopro! I have attached sample underwater photos taken with the original housing. If you do not use it in RAW+JPG mode, all the photos you take will turn out to be garbage, just like the ones in the link. ibb.co/pKfLRsm ibb.co/xhbxZ7d ibb.co/y4Hs79G Even if you record in RAW+JPG mode, the blurriness still persists. It doesn't provide a permanent solution. Out of 150 photos, only 30 come out clear, but they are still not as sharp as the old GoPro 5. And those are the clearest ones. ibb.co/8zHDYcg ibb.co/SxBGkQ3 A sample taken with the old GoPro 5 ibb.co/VVzv9pD
Thanks for sharing your experience!
I have revised the comment and provided comparative examples. Thank you.
Because it's an f2.6 prime lens. With that aperture, the minimum distance to focus on infinity is - seemingly - about 60 cm. Why? Because like others said, this is an action camera to image everything BUT your pretty mug. If that hurts your ego, simply put the camera on a selfie stick or put a 4+ diopter lens on the ace pro lens. Half of what's behind you will be blurred but at least the world will not be bereft of your magnificent visagé!
bro the problem is that the company says 40cm and in reality is 60! And also if you make a camera that is supposed to be meant for vloggers with big egos and magnificent visages then do it properly. And thanks for the comment and for watching man! I really feel like my complaining and magnificent visage touched you! I just love the internet(I am not even sarcastic)
I didn't see much difference in the examples with the straight arm vs. the bent arm while doing selfies. Also, while on the tape measure, the phone looked like it was in focus the whole time.... so was that shot with the Ace Pro? The image streamed to the phone may not have been clear, but the phone was in focus.
Mate it is just not there, the camera is good, and I have shot some things that actually look pretty decent for an action cam, but sometimes it is just annoying to see stuff behind you that are in focus. And don't mean only for vlogging. Think about when you want to shoot a close up of something like a flower or a leaf ora some other things and you cannot get close, or you have to mount the diopter and unmount it. With this particular camera the company should have just came out and be direct and straight about it.
Thanks for the reply. I wag h your video on my phone (like many people probably have), so that might have something to do with not seeing the subtleties in the quality. I found your video while researching for replacements for my GoPros, which just randomly become bricks. I mainly do action shots driving 4x4s, quads, dirtbikes, mountain/BMX, etc.... with some vlog type talking here and there. In your opinion, would you recommend this camera?
Thank you for watching and commenting. Listen if you know that you almost never will need to go close to a subject then yes, it is pretty good, quality wise is awesome, you can even rig it up properly to have better protection for quads and dirtbikes. Don't buy it if you plan to talk to the camera a lot. But that's just my 2 cents on it.
I really appreciate you taking time out of your day to respond. This camera is high on my list of replacements for my current cams.
I have been disappointed by gopro cameras in recent years, I haven't even tried the latest versions. I've been using Insta x3 for some time and it's quite ok, I might try Ace Pro too, thanks
The X3 and X4 are amazing! They do everything and they are fun. The only downside is the file size and file management
: But wait, if i have to get a closer shot ( less than 60 cms ), I can place the camera at 60 cms and double tap it....zoom the frame... Its possible, right?
In theory yes
If you dont like it, ill take it 😂
wanna buy it?
For how much 🤨
I am using it An excellent action camera
Glad you like it!
I was very disappointed to see the blackheads on my nose weren't sharp!
According to the internet Minimum Focus Distance of Ace is 1.9ft (0.6m) and Ace pro is 1.3ft (0.4m)
according to my test it is not true, and believe me I've done more than one
I definitely fell in love with the Insta360 Ace Pro. Of course I'll use it while riding my EUC, but also when I'm vlogging at 50cm, taking advantage of the blur to hide my blemishes. But most of all I will use it in the evening in Rome during walks with my wife and friends, because in low light conditions this cam is superb!
Ciao Riccardo! Guarda secondo me è una grande action cam ma hanno un po' mentito su questo fatto della focusin distance e rompe un po' le scatole. Però generalmente come ho detto nel video è una bomba.
This camera is my favourite... The clarity feature helped to shoot great PICS from a distance in a REAL forest situation. The bonfire video has come out great because of PUREVIDEO feature. I just love this camera. Regarding the focus issue.. ive already got a diopter (lens) from vivitar. Ive a gopro as well but kept it aside in case of an emergency like situation. I love this camera and it deserves to be loved IMHO.
And I am happy for you! Actually for taking photos it is pretty good I have to say! What diopter do you have?
Dude, it's a sport camera. Good sport camera. There are hundreds of other devices for narcissistic shots of a beautiful face.
I totally agree with you! They should just stop branding it as a vlog camera, don't you agree? I mean I do praise it for its qualities but... I think they wanted to reach too many people.
😂😂😂😂😂
😂Bro just get over it. Life is short. Little things like this bothering you ?Get the different camera and i am sure you will face with other different problems. LOL
Ture, true I just made this video so that other people who would like to buy this camera for vlogging know about it. Maybe it will help a few people make a good decision. It's about giving something to the community and getting some views and maybe in the future making a living out of it. Thanks for the comment and the view!
optical physics dictates that you have to have a focal length and depth of field. It is primarily an action camera. If the focal length were to be reduced, the functionality of a (primarily) action camera would be compromised. If you are going to vlog with it, accept that there are constraints. There are now replacement lens covers on amazon for $12, the lens cover screws off and the new one screws on. Non-problem.
And I totally agree with you! Problem is that they state the minimum focusing distance is 40 centimeters and in reality it kind of starts focusing at 55-60 centimeters. The problem is not the camera is the advertisement that’s been done so far. And yes this action camera does not do it for me.
There is nothing in-between boys and girls.
I guess… ahah
Who knows?! 😅
Everyone with any common sense.
Very important attention to this issue with the focus. I just change my mind about update of my DJI Osmo Action. Thank you!
Glad I could help!
Fuji 90 mm f2 is a thousand light years away from Viltrox 85 mm 1.8
I agree is better but not sooooo much better. You can get pretty similar results. What makes you say it is a thousand light years away
The solution causes the background to go out of focus. I'll stick with my GoPro.
Yeah I think it is better 😅
I just purchased it , got on-site to film and set up. 30 mins later making this post. Here's my review on the rs3 mini. It sucks. Don't buy it. I'm shooting with Sony a7IV 16-35mm GM lens and the rs3 mini can not handle the payload so balancing is an absolute pain in the ass.
Hi! Sorry to hear that! Yeah maybe the 16-35 is a little too heavy. I think this gimbal maybe is made to handle less than 1kg combos. With smaller lenses I have no issue. Also vertical is pretty good even with bigger setups.
What lens?
Viltrox 85mm F1.8 mainly and I think some on viltrox 75mm F1.2
I correct myself it is only viltrox 85mm in these.
Is there a zoom function for 75mm?
nope, it is a fixed lens
I agree, 50mm looks better in most cases. You can take a snapshot of your friends and it kills the busy background, flattens their faces, adds a little bit of cinematic compression. The 35 is closer to a flat phone image. My dilemma is I want a small lens for snapshots and casual walkaround but I like the 50mm so much that I’d go for the 1.4 version and owning both the 33 f1.4 and the 35 f2 sounds stupid and redundant.
really love how you described it man! I agree. And honestly if you don't do paid shoots I would say 35mm F2 is the way to go. Only move to F1.4 when you start working and you often shoot in low light. It is worth it only then.
Thanks a lot brother. Your video helps me to save money. Um going with 85mm. Thanx again- From Bangladesh
I am really glad I could help! Enjoy!
Who uses 85mm for videos anyway
I do, I use it when I cover events to shoot a different tipe of angle and get more compression. Clients always like it.
I think I have GAS (Gear acquisition syndrome)
how come? what's the latest piece of gear you got?
Hello, Ist there a way to check the current running firmware ? I would like to ensure a EF-M2 adapter is up to date, but dont want to get a mess if it is ok already. p.d. i am running Linuxmint/Ubuntu
Unfortunately I cannot help you with that. I saw in a video that on a panasonic camera when you attach the adapter with a lens the camera will tell you the firmware version of the lens but it is in reality the adapter. Don't know if that helps
Air 3 also?
Sadly not, as far as I know DJI air2s and DjiAir2 are the only drones that support the sphere
Awesome video! Your portraits are really inspirational! I want to try to replicate them. What is your opinion on the 75mm vs the fuji 90mm? I have found a really good deal on a used 90mm but the 75 is so good. Thanks!
Thanks! I am glad you like my work. Honestly I think the 75mm is better if you shoot a lot in low light. That 1,2 makes a huge difference. And the 90mm is more expensive although it just feels better when mounted on the camera. It is also a matter of how much you enjoy the 75mm focal length vs 90mm because you will see the difference. I made a video with the 85mm Viltrox vs 90mm Fuji and there was a difference, and that difference can be noticed even more with the 90mm. Overall I think the 75mm is better unless you want a longer focal length. Plus I think it is time for Fuji to update this lens.
