First Impressions: XF 16-80mm f/4 R OIS WR for Video
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- This is my first impressions video test using the new Fujifilm XF16-80mm f/4 R OIS WR. Because this is a pre-production unit, I can not give my final thoughts on image quality, build quality or stabilization. I can give you a general idea of how this lens behaves and works with various bodies, including the X-H1, X-T3 and X-T30. I conducted this review with my videographer Chris G (aka @ChrisMeetsChris) down at the Lonsdale Shipyards. Please wait for my shooting review while I wait to receive my full production review copy. Thanks for watching and happy shooting.

I'll wait for the conclusion! You guys did a lot, Fuji should pay attention.
Thanks Ali! Yes I always send links to my finished videos to Fujifilm Canada.
And another great help towards a decision to buy this versatile zoom. Thank you, Take! 🙏 And thank you, Chris, as well 😉
Paulo Furtado thanks Paul, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it!
Thanks for watching!
Gonna save for this lens. Will pair perfect with my X-T2
Victor Guillen agreed :)
I think it's a good zoom to pair with the X-T2
Helpful video thanks. Nice shots of Vancouver too 😎
I dont mean to be so off topic but does someone know a way to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly lost the account password. I appreciate any help you can offer me!
@Lucas Amos instablaster ;)
@Elliot Hank Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Elliot Hank it worked and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my ass!
@Lucas Amos you are welcome =)
Good Job man :) I'm curious to see how a 'normal' production unit of this lens performs... specially zooming in and out while shooting video. Can you show us that on a coming video?
I've been eyeing this lens for my X-T20 as a general purpose lens. I have the 16-55, but it is a bit big even with the grip I added to my X-T2's little brother. Thanks for showing it on the X-T30 early in the video so I could get an idea of the size.
What's the best Fuji X-S10 kit lens for video? 18-55mm or 16-80mm?
I would like to know the same thing
@@serchromo8326 I think 18-55mm kit lens is better
Thank you for these demonstration.
Contrary to what you guys are saying in the video, the image stabilisation while walking seems awful. The sharp corrections actually look worse than the natural jumpy movement of the human body; it's painful to watch. I'd been secretly hoping that the claimed 6-stop stabilisation might compensate for the lack of IBIS in the X-T3 and allow for occasional handheld, on-the-move video work, but I guess that domain is still held exclusively by M4/3 cameras with IBIS.
Pandora Productions hi there, while I agree with a lot of what you’re saying, I think it’s important to note that for lens OIS, it’s actually quite good - if you want to walk and do a tracking shot you’re going to need more than just OIS (which I can understand why you’d stick with m43)
For the occasional handheld, on the go filming - the stabilization is more than useable, most of the time you don’t need to be walking with the camera, for panning and small camera movements while standing in the same spot, it’s an excellent choice for the xt3.
Appreciate the feedback!
Fuji's stabilization looks like it's only optimized for stills and there is no video specific algorithm, which is fine by me.
I like anything x-T30 related.
ha ha, the X-T30 we used was Chris' GF's copy :-)
It’s an awesome little camera. I am Always tempted to pick one up as a backup body.
GREAT VIDEO ! Good introduction and very detailed ! I think it is good for travellers ! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍💖
Fuji just give us the smart speed booster...you made a teleconverter...can do the opposite. Won’t hurt business & can put the FF argument to rest. Not an f4 kinda guy but looks like a decent lens
My videographer wasn’t a huge F/4 shooter as well, but at 80mm, the look is really nice...
curious, did you guys swap out the Polarpro filter? Great Video!!!
I already own the 16-55mm so ive gotta think whats the advantages of me getting this lens aswel aswel as getting this new lens,main point is the size and weight differences.
I personally use the 16-55 almost everyday for video / and photography and because 90% of the time I’m in doors... I need the 2.8.
For outdoor and travel, the lightweight 16-80 and the extra zoom would be super handy, and fujifilm cameras can handle being a little bit higher on the iso, so the F4 while not as ideal, is still an excellent choice.
Also depends on the body - I use x-h1 so I don’t really need the iOS, but if I had an xt3 I’d most likely be buying this lens for video 👍🏼
What body are you using with the XF16-55mm f/2.8? I think that will be the big question. I have an X-H1 but I think for me, I still prefer the XF16-80mm f/4 since I rarely shoot wide open.
@@bigheadtaco i use a xt2 with the fuji xf16-55 lens and i normaly set my shutter speed to shoot no slower than 1/60th of a second when shooting indoors in average light without flash and i get good images without flash and at f2.8 i can get usable background subject islolation and the only times i might get a problems is in low light indoors without flash i wish i was using the xh1,i use it as a travel lens when im out and do sometimes find it a bit heavy around my neck all day but the images im getting from it equal my fuji f2 primes that i have.
Great video. Thank you.
Brian W thanks for watching!
Nice & Thanks :)
Need a 4K Vlog Test !
i wanna rub your fuzzy flannel shirt. ROFL. haaaaa!
Wait for it .... wait for it .... FLANNEL! Lol
My 6 year old OMD EM5 mk1 has much better stabilisation of any lens I attach than either of these combinations, which is a shame as I also have an X-T3 and am looking to do more video work.
Please wait for my production copy to come in next week and I will get Chris to do extensive video testing on the X-T3.
It's a shame that Olympus didn't take advantage of its IBIS in video at all. EM1x for example is a huge disappointment.
I want this lens now shut up it's bad for my wallet
Ha ha, more videos are coming out...
@@bigheadtaco nooooooo! ;)
Is there a firm release date? I want this lens so badly.
In Canada, I think today is the availability date where Fujifilm ships to retailers. I think by next week most people in the world should be able to walk into their camera shop and buy it if it’s in stock.
during video when zooming what happen to focus ? is it keep focus or not?
Yes Chris and I were mostly using our X-H1 cameras, so it struggling to maintain focus since the zoom range is so wide. However, this is a pre-production unit so we have to wait to see what happens on a full production unit.
About to collect the lens in 2hrs :)
congrats, I think you'll love it!
@@bigheadtaco Thanks buddy and keep up the good work :)
Wooh! #TeamEarly
form my experience i found fuji lens that have LM function can made a good and smooth video af and now when i see your review it's true , fuji 16-80 can't compare 16-55(and may be 18-55) for video af because it's lack of LM feature . fuji let me down a bit for release this len with a bit low performance but too high price.
I don't think the OIS is phenomenal like Chris said, at least for video. IBIS like the one in X-H1 is far better for video recording.
Chụp hình nghiệp dư hi there! I agree it might not be as phenomenal like I said in the video :) but in fairness, it was from looking at the LCD screen - that said, it’s actually quite good for OIS (obviously not as good as IBIS) but for normal uses, it performs fine.
Is this lens only with xpro3 a great travel camera combo?
(0:20) If we stop doing what we do in Vancouver because it rains, we wouldn't do anything.
Summer2015 😂
does it proper rain in vancouver? the many times i been to Seattle, it just seems to be "wet" but not like pouring down hard
「あなたの動画はとても良いですし、メッセージがた
I'm just testing this lens with X-T3 & found something weird. Shot at 80mm with 1/160 speed & compare with 1/40 speed, The image from 1/40 speed look more sharper than 1/160 speed. Do you have this problem ?
Could it have been that at 1/160 you were at a more wide open aperture but at 1/40 you were stopped down more?
Is this a good combination with xt3 for video purpose...?
Shabeeb Rahman of course!
I think that’s how Fujifilm is marketing this lens, as a great video and stills lens. They talk about minimal focus breathing, which is important to video, as well as the 9 blade circular aperture for smooth out of focus area.
Hello! Thanks for video. Whats better - xf 18 55 or 16 80?
I don't think it's a matter of better or worse, but what your needs are. I prefer the 16-80mm for various reasons. It has a wider focal range, more stops of stabilization, it's weather-sealed, and has a constant aperture. However, you pay for it in size and weight. The 18-55mm is a great all round lens but without the burden of carrying something big around. If you want to stay compact, go with the 18-55. If you want more range but willing to put up with size, weight and price, go for the 16-80mm. I bought the 16-80 for myself and it's very useful to me and my photography.
@@bigheadtaco thank you for your answer. I don’t care about size and weight. I had before 18-55, I liked his image quality in video, and stabilization was not bad. I think about 16-80, because focal range better. But I worry about video image quality and video auto focus, is it better than 18-55? Or same? Or worse? For example, I heard many time that video quality of 18-135 worse then 18-55. That’s why, I asked, what about 16-80. Now I try to choose from - 16-80, 55-200, or sell my blood and buy 50-140. Where Is video auto focus better? Thank you for your help.
Is it sharper than 16-55 2.8?
It is honestly not clear if Fujifilm claims any gain from using OIS lenses on the X-H1. They only mention IS “cooperative control” with the 80mm lens on the X-H1.
They really should be a little more clear about this. I wonder how much it matters using my OIS zooms on my X-H1.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏💖💐💕
You ever consider selling narcotics son? I can make it happen.
You're clearly out of focus.
