      Make sure you don't overuse the desaturated and moody look of most film simulations like Classic Chrome. You might get addicted.

    There is 1 small hack with Fuji cameras you should try. If you wanna get a higher dynamic range without shooting F-Log, there is an option in the menu called DYNAMIC RANGE. The default option is DR100, but you can change it to DR200 or DR400.
    What it basically does is that it allows your highlights to be properly exposed but the camera internally raises the shadows by 1 (DR200) or 2 (DR400) stops. In that way, you can get any film simulation look with higher DR and it really works. Not a bad thing if you need to have a quick turnaround, you are time-constrained or simply want to avoid shooting log for any reason.

    • @TechnicalGamingChannel
      @TechnicalGamingChannel Год назад +18

      The dynamic range setting doesn't raise the shadows. Fuji cameras have dual analog gain circuits to give them dual native ISO. When the dynamic range setting is off, the camera only uses the gain circuit that drives it's respective ISO range. When it's enabled, the camera uses both gain circuits in tandem to pull more range out of the highlights. You have to shoot at a minimum ISO to get the full effect with DR 400 (on the XT4 it's ISO 640), so it can be somewhat limiting. It also works with F-LOG AFAIK, giving it even more dynamic range. The one caveat is that the camera decides when to actually apply the effect. It will automatically decide based on the image if it needs the extra dynamic range or not. The DR setting also works on Raw files.
      Pal2Tech has a great video on the feature that goes into all the details ruclips.net/video/RjjCa73XxsY/видео.html

      The X-H2 and X-H2s has really good auto focus but it takes some tweaking in the settings depending on the situation and subject movement, all this can be stored to the C1-C7 for different situations. I have full custom focus setting on all of them and I almost never miss focus.

    Heeey ! Loved that you're finally discovering all the Fuji Funsies !
    I've been shooting with them since 2016 (after a few years on Canon), and have never looked back ever since I tried my tiny little X-T10 !
    The film sims are definitely one of the big reasons why their cameras get such a loyal fanbase, but there are so much more to them !
    If you want to discover them in more details, Omar Gonzalez and Pal2tech channels are great to dig deeper (and they're funny as heck !).
    If you want to know more about the video side of things, Palle Schultz is great too (and pretty damn funny too).

Might be a connection for you to look into maybe using. The propellers were really different ... watch it and enjoy regardless. It was in the last 2 weeks, so should be easy to find. And the primary use of it is exceptionally valuable, delivering medical supplies somewhere in Africa. Anyone else out there, that drone thing is pretty cool - maybe spur some ideas for people doing film work with heavier gear or something.

    I got into Fujifilm last year with GFX 100s medium format and the rendering is just insane. Then i wanted a smaller camera and decided to try Fujifilm XH2 40mp cropped sensor. Images are great but the display playback took 2-3 seconds to show up on the screen. Just too slow for me since I’m used to a quick preview on my Nikon Z9. Return it and got Fujifilmm XH2s, faster preview w stack sensor and video centric versus xh2. I was contemplating why I need another video centric camera since my Z9 has better video capabilities but the XH2s body and lens are just way lighter to carry around. Plus film simulation options are great for those quick non high production shoots. Love my Z9 for both stills and video work so please do a review on the Z9 soon. Aloha!

    Fuji just needs to make some medium format video-centric camera (similar price to GFX100S but with fan) and all hell will break loose. And of course, make sure their GFX lenses are using linear motor instead of the stepper motor that is super slow and noisy.

    Love the review. I shoot on a canon R6 and wanted an everyday camera and something new instead of canon. I got a Fuji xt5. Where was you then lol. I do love the Fuji colors and ease of use.
