i dont mean to be off topic but does any of you know of a method to get back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost the password. I love any help you can offer me!
@Terry Dominic i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now. I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I have a confession to make. I love these long camera tutorials, even though I never have the camera you're presenting, because they help me to sleep. I put it on at bed time, and always fall asleep very quickly. If I wake up in the night, I press replay and I sleep another full cycle. And so on through the night. So thanks for helping me sleep well, Tony! ☺👍
I've taken about 10,000 photos on my X-T20 in many types of conditions using various lenses and settings, before watching your video and still got a lot of information and tips from you. Many thanks for making such informative videos for your fans!
Great demo, thank you very much. I'm an experienced shooter but I've just got this camera and it's really nice to see where everything is in a video instead of having to dig through the entire written user manual (however, it's not that bad after all). I also have a small tip to ease the removal of the SD card from the camera as I saw how you were struggling as well as I did. Just add a small piece of tape to the end of the SD card and wrap it over so that it protrudes a few millimeters into the battery department. This way you can just grab the tape to pull the card out instead of poking and wiggling around with the finger tips in this tight space. I've used this trick on my smaller Sony cameras for years and it just works great (especially when using L-brackets or something like that).
My 20 arrived this evening. Started browsing the manual & realized how different it is to my xt100. Overwhelmed to say the least but Tony to the rescue! Best hour & a half I've had in some time.
A special shoutout to you @Tony & Chelsea Northrup for making these awesome tutorial videos!! As an advanced amateur (if that exists) I really enjoy learning more in depth knowledge about the quirks and secrets of photography that other channels or websites simply don't have the patience to explain it all with such depth and logic. I love your tutorials so much, I ended up buying your book. You deserve all the support you can get from your subscribers for all the hard work and time you put into making these amazing and lengthy videos, sharing with us all your secrets basically for free. Keep it up !!
Thanks Tony. Your knowledge, wisdom and skill as a teacher is without any doubt the best I have experienced on RUclips. Your humility, impartial tone and generosity should be a lesson for everyone. Thanks again.
I have just purchased a new X T20. This tutorial is so very helpful in helping me to understand the workings and settings of this great little camera. Thank you for taking the time and effort to make this essential vid.
great tutorial Tony. I watched it with camera in hand and I've been vlogging with the camera for two weeks now. You made the learning curve a lot easier.
This was a truly extraordinary video. I just bought this camera, and the first thing I did was watch this video. Tony is a great teacher and generous to post this on RUclips free of charge. I want to find somehing to buy in Tony’s store to provide at least some form of compensation.
Thank you Tony for the tutorial. This is my first professional camera and was confused on the options that xt20 has, but this video really help me to understand my camera better. I don't mind the long tutorial because I can always jump up to different categories that I want to learn. Thanks again Tony!
Finally I gave in and recently i purchased for the first time a serious camera. Before it arrived I watched this tutorial a few times. When my camera arrived I immediately felt familiar with it and didn’t freak out once, thanks to this great tutorial! Millions of things to learn but this tutorial gave me a head start on learning to know my camera. With your amazing book SDP i am now making my first steps into the world of photography and having lots of fun Thanks Tony
Tony, I've gone back (model iteration-wise) to this XT20 in order to get small size AND the D-Pad (love those direct control options!). This tutorial is super helpful. Thanks, Craig
Love this video! Explain basic for newbies and refresh the knowledge for those who need it. Really well done :) Just bought Xt20, so excited to start shooting with it!
Just wanted to add to the pile of thank you messages. This video is a life saver and has me grinning ear from ear as I feel myself slowly absorb the info and become more confident with the different modes. THANK YOU
This is the tutorial I needed. In a world of Canon and Nikon shooters, this is for every beginner determined to shoot Fuji. Thank you, thank you, thank you- just bought the book because of this helpful video!!
Hi Tony and Chelsea! You guys are great for making tutorials. I hope you gonna have a tutorial for Fujifilm X100F. I'm sure a lot of people are waiting for it! Thank you!
Super useful, Tony. I've read too many manuals, and this gave me a very pleasant, comprehensive, and clear way to understand that guts of the camera. (I have an X-E2, but all of the menu functions you discuss are identical in that camera.)
Thanks so much for the top-notch tutorial. I just got a X-T20 and it has been awhile since I had a camera lesson. This really helped me to hit the ground running with all of the key features.
I'm a little late to the fuji X-T20 game, but thank you so much Tony for making this video. This made the switch from a Canon DSLR to a fuji mirrorless setup so much easier. I'm currently reading STP, and I just want to let you know how fantastic it is to have two very talented and approachable teachers in both you and Chelsea.
Tips, okay, here's few - shortcut to setup your FN buttons, long press the DISP/BACK button, then scroll and set your different FN buttons. Shortcut for focus peaking and split focus, long press the rear command dial, each long press will cycle through each selection, NOTE: by default that rear command dial is set to focus assist, if you change the focus assist to another FN button, then long pressing that button will cycle your selections! I have a ton of other, but that would be a book, which, I did write a book for shooting video with the Fuji X Pro 2 "The Fujiflim X Pro 2 Video Setup Guide" lots of thing in it that apply to this camera as well! No, that's not a shameful plug!
Thank you for the tutorial, I bought several other cameras since I got my X-T20 and haven't used it for awhile and your video is a great refresher on to use. Tks
I ran to get the ebook! I am a total beginner and this was not only a helpful overview of the camera, but had a lot of photography tips I really appreciated.
thank you Tony , this session has been very informative, detailed and very clear. I learned a lot from this video, Much easier than fumbling through the manual pages.
The Fuji film simulations or "filters" as you call them are a major feature of the X system, for many users . Shoot RAW +jpeg and then experiment changing them in camera afterwards Far superior than doing it out of camera with other apps. Acros and classic chrome are especially good.
Phil Levy I completely agree the Fuji simulations also help you see how the image look in different simulation. something I urge all x-series users to give them a try
Phil Levy one of the major features why I intend to buy a Fuji. Image quality is good with any manufacturer, but what I like is the film simulation and "old school" shutter and aperture dials. For me it's not just about the image, but the experience taking it. I photograph mainly for myself, and I like having fun doing it
Really great tutorial. I got my X-T20 yesterday and was bamboozled with the control system after moving over from Canon. This tutorial really helped me understand the controls on the Fuji so I can head out and shoot. Thank you!!
I always love your video, Tony. Been following all of your Fuji tutorials since I bought X-T10. Now its time to upgrade to X-T20 and here we are, another helpful tutorial! I'm also a big fan of your SDP book, bought it couple months ago and it really improve my photography knowledge (and technique). Few more pages left to finish! XD
Awesome video! Just got my XT20 and this instructional video is very helpful. I will surely refer to it throughout the learning process. Thank you Tony for creating this !
I just purchased the new Fuji X-T100 which I am happy to say can store location data (August 2018) and was overwhelmed with the buttons, dials, etc. Came upon this video even though the Northrup's video is made for the X-T20 (the similarity of the two cameras quickly became apparent). That being said I went from despair to joy watching the first 20 minutes, kinda like I just found the Rosetta Stone. Bravo!
Tony, you can change the settings of the buttons by pressing and holding it, save you some few clicks. Also pressing the back button also gives you the focus area selection. thanks for this awesome tutorial.
I just got this because I needed a 35mm (I got a 23mm f2) for smaller stuff that doesn't require my dslr's and so this was good. I appreciate you doing this.
Significantly reduced the learning curve for a my new x-t20. Also triggered a compulsion to take my new camera out of auto mode. I highly recommend having a back up battery per Tony's recommendation. Great video.
Just got this camera used and really appreciate this awesome tutorial! I have absolutely no experience in fotography - just want it for the video feature but tomorrow I'll try everything I learned here in the streets. :)
Thanks for the video, Tony. I watched it instead of reading the user manual, and it was enough for me to feel extremely comfortable with the camera, despite I didn't use fujis before.
Great review and tutorial Tony, I just ordered the XT20 last night, I simply could not resist the military appreciation sale price which ends November 1.
Thank for this video Tony. A through look at the ergonomics of this camera without getting too trivial. I'll be sure to check out some of your other videos.
Thanks Tony for another great video! after watching this and following the steps along the way i now have a much better understanding of my new camera and now I can run with it, superb tutorial! Love it!
Thank you, for the tutorial! I fell in love with this "oldie"; altough there are nowadays better performing cameras out there but at the end of the day, it is the love and joy of photography...;-)
This video is great! Seriously, if other Germans ask me for good tutorials, I recommend learning English and watching this video instead of watching a German video. Thanks a lot!
Hi. Thanks for the tutorial. Just got this little guy and I'm excited to use it. I did want to report back one issue I ran into, and that's giving the photos a star rating. When you give the photo a 5 star rating from the camera, Lightroom does NOT see that star rating. Fuji (for some unknown reason to me) decided to store that rating in a MakerNotes field in the EXIF data and NOT in the industry-standard EXIF Rating field. That means if you want to import those star ratings, you will need to use a plugin like X-LR plugin. Thought I would give you a heads up. Cheers.

Yes, Tony's voice is very attractive. He should host a talk show, or something like that.
Simon Patterson 😂😂😂
Simon Patterson Sounds like you have ASMR
omg same!

This is the best overview of the camera I have ever seen. You do a very thorough job of covering all the major things someone would need. Thank you!

These Fujis are so high quality. Great camera and tutorial
Fujifilm should pay you for this. Incredibly useful. Thank you!
Just got my T20 yesterday and watched this video 3 times,
Thank you, Tonny
Glad to help!
Me too. 1. Bought camera. 2. Watched Tony!
Avishay Gold I bought it yesterday and it’s all the control are so different when to compared to my previous camera Nikon D5100

What a great service you offer, Tony. One of the finest photography channels on YT.
I have just purchased a new X T20. This tutorial is so very helpful in helping me to understand the workings and settings of this great little camera.
Thank you for taking the time and effort to make this essential vid.
great tutorial Tony. I watched it with camera in hand and I've been vlogging with the camera for two weeks now. You made the learning curve a lot easier.
Huge help. One of the best tutorials for any product/hobby I have seen.
A faster way to connect to your mobile app is to press Play button then press Fn. it will open the xt20's wifi.
That's fine, but your advice assumes that the 'Fn' button is still set to its default, which is WiFi Connect . . .
I have my Fn button set to ISO but find if I pres Play and just tap Fn (not hold down) it does in deed go to WiFi!!!!!!!
This was a truly extraordinary video. I just bought this camera, and the first thing I did was watch this video. Tony is a great teacher and generous to post this on RUclips free of charge. I want to find somehing to buy in Tony’s store to provide at least some form of compensation.

I don't mind the long tutorial because I can always jump up to different categories that I want to learn. Thanks again Tony!
That's probably the best tutorial on anything I have ever seen. Helped me a ton, thank you very much man!
Finally, Tony gave us a detailed instruction on X-T20. No wonder, Tony is around for 15 years or so.
Finally I gave in and recently i purchased for the first time a serious camera.
Before it arrived I watched this tutorial a few times. When my camera arrived I immediately felt familiar with it and didn’t freak out once, thanks to this great tutorial!
Millions of things to learn but this tutorial gave me a head start on learning to know my camera.

Very grateful Tony, for a most comprehensive, helpful, step by step and I believe the only such guide to the XT20 online.
As always, thanks Tony for taking the time to go through everything in the most efficient/helpful way for beginners-pros!
I remember watching this with my X-T20 camera at hand a few years back. Still the best tutorial video for this camera.
This is the most helpful and complete overview I've ever watched. I learned so much about my camera! Huge thank you for creating this. Amazing.

Thank you for the tutorial, I bought several other cameras since I got my X-T20 and haven't used it for awhile and your video is a great refresher on to use. Tks
I keep coming back to this video, and your book, as I further unlock skills and knowledge with my X-T20. Thanks so much for making this.

Thank you Tony! I bought the XT20 a few weeks ago and this video really helped me understand what the camera can actually do and how it does it.
Awesome video! Just got my XT20 and this instructional video is very helpful. I will surely refer to it throughout the learning process. Thank you Tony for creating this !

Possibly the best X-T20 tutorial ! Great job !
Thanks Tony. This is such a helpful and comprehensive overview of how to use the Fuji XT20 which can be very daunting for a new user.
I just got the x-t20 and this was invaluable for me. I would be lost without it.
Lots of good detail......Tony you are a very good relaxed presenter........very welcome. Bought the book as a result . many thanks
Thanks for a great video - I learned a lot from this that make shooting with this camera even more of a joy.
Thanks so much. I have a Nikon D500 & Canon G7X Mk II. Adding a FujiFilm XT20 is like learning an all new language, so you're a huge help. Thanks!
Tony, you can change the settings of the buttons by pressing and holding it, save you some few clicks. Also pressing the back button also gives you the focus area selection. thanks for this awesome tutorial.
I just got this because I needed a 35mm (I got a 23mm f2) for smaller stuff that doesn't require my dslr's and so this was good. I appreciate you doing this.
Just got my X-T20 on Saturday and watching the video for the first time, looking forward!
this was hands down the most helpful video i have ever seen! THANK YOU SO MUCH. i am getting all of your books right now!
Significantly reduced the learning curve for a my new x-t20. Also triggered a compulsion to take my new camera out of auto mode. I highly recommend having a back up battery per Tony's recommendation. Great video.

Thanks a lot for this tutorial..this helped me a lot to quickly become familiar with my new Fuji X T30
Thanks for this. Appreciated you putting it out for free and didn't mind your product plugs at all considering the detailed information provided.
Thank you for this really excellent video. It has really helped me understand many of the functions of my X-T20 Camera.
Thanks for the video, Tony. I watched it instead of reading the user manual, and it was enough for me to feel extremely comfortable with the camera, despite I didn't use fujis before.
You're welcome!
This is my first camera and you taught me so much! Excited to get out there and start putting all this great information to use!
Great review and tutorial Tony, I just ordered the XT20 last night, I simply could not resist the military appreciation sale price which ends November 1.
5 years later still relevant, thanks Tony
This is just an awesome tutorial and so much fun to watch. Thanks for posting this for free!
I just purchased this camera and look forward to watching this again
Dec 2019.. this tutorial is still gold for a beginner. Thank you!! :)
Thank you for this excellent tutorial. I was a little lost with this camera but now everything is clear.
Stunning. Very professional content. Really appreciated, thank you.
Waiting for this camera to get to my doorstep! Thanks for the awesome video! Well done and very professional.
Wow- thanks! This camera was overwhelming to me as a beginner, so your tutorial was SO helpful!
Im so happy with this tutorial, now its time to learn my xt20😃 thank you!
Thank for this video Tony. A through look at the ergonomics of this camera without getting too trivial. I'll be sure to check out some of your other videos.
Thanks Tony for another great video! after watching this and following the steps along the way i now have a much better understanding of my new camera and now I can run with it, superb tutorial! Love it!
Thanks so much Tony! This video is so in-depth and comprehensive. Looking forward to shooting.
free tutorial :DDD thanks for not charging for this youtube video.
I finally got an xt 20, 6 years later
I've been waiting about fuji xt20, thanks tony for your review, it is very helpful..
I enjoy and learn more from each video you upload. thank you
54:00 A Quick Tip that I learned from Omar Gonzalez; press disp/back button to get the focusing point to the default(center) positon.
Thank you, for the tutorial! I fell in love with this "oldie"; altough there are nowadays better performing cameras out there but at the end of the day, it is the love and joy of photography...;-)
Very informative and comprehensive video! Great work Tony👍🏾
Wow, this helped a lot. Most used settings in one video. Thanks a lot!
This video is great! Seriously, if other Germans ask me for good tutorials, I recommend learning English and watching this video instead of watching a German video. Thanks a lot!
Great tutorial and love the effort that you put into your videos!
Thanks!
Shooting from Canon to Fuji is tough for me. This is really helpful!
Thank you for a fantastic tutorial. Clear instructions and description at a great instruction pace.
Thank you so much for this! This is our first camera and had no idea what we were doing. Much more comfortable now 👍🏻
Hi. Thanks for the tutorial. Just got this little guy and I'm excited to use it.
I did want to report back one issue I ran into, and that's giving the photos a star rating. When you give the photo a 5 star rating from the camera, Lightroom does NOT see that star rating. Fuji (for some unknown reason to me) decided to store that rating in a MakerNotes field in the EXIF data and NOT in the industry-standard EXIF Rating field. That means if you want to import those star ratings, you will need to use a plugin like X-LR plugin.
Thought I would give you a heads up. Cheers.
One of the best features of the camera is the film simulations!
I hope you will have a tutorial for X100F too.
