    Another great job. It is always refreshing when a camera is reviewed emphasizing some of the nice features. Too many reviewers get into the specs game and compare against other brands. Your reviews are so much more interesting since they zone in on what something can do. As you said in the past, if we keep telling companies what is good about their product, they might keep doing it and other companies may pick up on it. Once again, great job.

      X-trans 4 used in x-t30 x-t3 and now xpro3 X-trans is filter array unlike most CMOS sensors featuring a conventional Bayer filter array, all those sensors mentioned are cut down from same platern that is used for gfx100 and Sony a7r4. Sensors in Fujis developed by Fujifilm and manufactured by Sony for Fujifilm.

    As a former film shooter, I could never understand the gripe about batteries that can yield 250 to 600 shots. You can squeeze 600 with the XPro3. Just put two extra small matchbox sized charged batteries into your bag or pocket. No big deal. It takes all of 15 seconds to switch batteries.

    Thanks for a nice video. On your point at the end section on batteries: battery life is basically an issue for all devices and I just manage it by having three batteries that I cycle through and the batteries are not big so it’s manageable and not something I would hold against the camera. Also the mention of same batteries across the Fuji camera range will be great for reducing impact on the environment both on the battery front but also on camera components proliferation (think mobile phones and the number of different charger styles that were out there before the industry made the effort to standardise).

    As someone who shoots with two AT-1's with a 24mm and a 50mm always mounted and prefocused at f/8-f/16, metering manually, this camera is perfect for bringing my workflow over to digital fulltime. My only complaint would be that Fuji doesn't appear to manufacture its modern lenses with focus scales. For someone that likes to set focus and forget it for composing quick street shots, this is pretty hard to reconcile. I'm hoping that the minimum/maximum focus setting can be utilized to achieve the same effect - but is that feature only available during video capture?

    2:02 is it true that there is only one magnification on the ovf now? Also hard disagree, a viewfinder that's lag-free, even in low light, and has moving frame lines is a godsend

  • @andreitelenkov5775
    @andreitelenkov5775 4 года назад

    X-T3 can fire 20fps (have not tries 30fps yet) with AF tracking, keep rate of about 50% on the moving subject. After they fix the obvious bugs, the AF system will be great. One of the most annoying continuous AF bugs is that when the focus is not acquired on half-press, it will not be acquired at all after you press the shutter button fully, unlike other manufactures' cameras (eg. canon). They can acquire focus on the second or third shot of the series.

  • @mohammedsamsheer284
    @mohammedsamsheer284 4 года назад +1

    Love your videos and i dont mean to be rude but the XPro series is a street camera hence i would have really liked if you had shot it in the city where the Film simulations really shine. Right now it all looks almost the same.
    Its like driving a ferrari in the desert,it sure will drive in the sand but that doesnt mean it performs best.

  • @andyvan5692
    @andyvan5692 4 года назад

    nice video and that ISO dial affect was nice too.
    one tip for Fuji x series users, that you MUST share: the HIGH ISO options ( 12,800; etc ) and the low (100, etc.) CAN'T be selected if shutter type has "Electronic" as the option selected ( or is in combination with Mechanical) , I have both an xt-1 AND an xt-10 model and this is common with BOTH, not sure if this issue is across all of Fuji's range of cameras , ie. the xt-20, x pro series of cameras, x h series or if it's limited to just this x series. Just letting everyone know as some of you get these cameras for their fast prime lenses like the 56 mm f 1.2 and others, which this issue may become a deal breaker for you, as this is NOT in any of the manuals, this "interlock" is something I have found out by trial and error, the shutter speeds ARE discussed as being limited in certain shutter modes, THIS ISO limitation is not added into any of the mode compatibility charts in the manuals!

      Hi Andy,
      Has this been resolved?

    • @notme7720
      @notme7720 Год назад

      Hi, I think the earlier cameras like the XT1 might have been a bit more limited on this but with the X-Pro3 (and I just tested to make sure) the full native ISO range from 160-12,800 is available in the electronic shutter mode. What’s not available is the “extended” ISO that can be made to go down to 80 or up 512,000 with the mechanical shutter - I imagine there is a technical explanation for this, but in practice I don’t see it as a problem as you lose a fair bit of dynamic range below 160 and the image pretty much falls apart above 12,800 ISO, so these “extended” modes are mostly there just to look good on paper anyway.

  • @alexgpanda2012

    • @geraldundone

    • @geraldundone

      The main difference is the ability to run it from USB. Without PD you don't increase your runtime much, but with PD, your batteries can last hours and hours longer if run plugged in.

    Is it really that much better than the 2? The X-pro2 goes for less than half the price (almost 1/3) on the used market

    How does this have dislikes? I will never understand RUclips. My assumption is that some people are just d/#&s. As always, well done Gerald.

      People are jealous for the most. (Most likely when they are really bad at certain things, rarely they are positive when someone else is having success).

      In short .... a footage with just this text "Well this XPro-3 is weird! X-T3 is still a far better buy" wouldn't score that much of dislikes.

    Thanks for the video! Good looking camera, but yikes, $1,800 to $2,000??? (Also, did scratching your knife against the camera body damage the knife???)
