Maarten, I watched your preview. We bought this camera. Fujifilm X T 💯. Loving the retro look. Your tutorial on this camera was the best I found on RUclips..your soft spoken nature and in-depth knowledge is remarkable.
Sir plz reply I have a Fuji xt100 its a crop sensor I am thinking to buy a samyang 85mm f1.4 for canon I am going to buy a Fuji to canon manual adapter because samyang is only manual focus. I want to take full body shots and I have seen vids in 85mm lens in full body shots gets the perfect blur .. Do I buy that lens
@@saqibmohd9041 You will have to be some distance away from your subject to take a full body shot with an 85mm lens, as on this sensor it's the equivalent of 135mm. I'd would also advise against using an adapted lens when there are so many fine native x-mount lenses. If your goal is to achieve a satisfying blur, zoom in all the way, open the iris to the max, get your subject as close to the camera as possible and as far from the background as possible - that should achieve good results with most lenses. ruclips.net/video/FgpHdMxv2rg/видео.html for more details.
@@MaartenHeilbron thanks for replying martin but Fuji adapters and lens are very very expensive in India so I think I should buy manual adapter because samyang 85mm f1.4 only have manual focus I have a question do the Fuji xt100 have live focous mode ?? And do the xt100 will perform as good as canon m50 only in image quality and thanks again for replying
Congrats on 50K subscribers. With comprehensive reviews like this one, you will reach 100K soon, I'm sure. Thank you for responding to my question from the earlier video on this camera! You're the rare reviewer who responds.
It’s always a pleasure to chat with and respond to my viewers. I worked in broadcast for a long time, where there no feedback. It’s so nice to feel connected to my viewers.
I just bought the x-t100... I'm a beginner interested in moving to mirrorless from smartphone. X-t20 is out of my price range. Happy with your in depth review. I think there's so much for me to learn about the camera
While comparison between XT20 and XT100 pictures is not exactly fair because different lenses are used, I was surprised to see so much colour difference between the 2 cameras. I admit I refer XT20. Thanks so much for this comparison Maarten.
I have rented this for this weekend. With my first few pictures at home, I am shocked to see that Astia and Provia show much more saturation than they do with other Fuji cameras. Don't really like that. My south asian yellow-ish skin looks jaundice yellow and my caucasian partner's looks like he has got some redness on the skin....something weird going on there.
They were, I checked again. In fact I took the pictures exactly where I check all cameras after hiring / buying.. to check skin tones, etc. In fact XT1, XA3 have been great. Sony A7 series ( as much as I love), Canon M5, not so much. Maybe it fits with your observation that the colours in this are not as good.
Thanks Maarten for an entertaining review. I own an XE2 and am in a dilemma over whether to replace it with this XT100. Video and action shoots are not important to me as I am into landscape, portrait, street and still life. The XT100 seems to meet my needs and would like your comment on its differences with the XE2. Thanks and take care.
Looks like a good beginners camera. Didn't expect it would be that heavy. The xpro2 is around the same weight! Thanks for the video. It was a very well made video as usual.
Hi Maarten, thank you once again for this great review. I just have few questions if u can help me. What are the top knobs/buttons for in xt100? They are unmarked except the shooting option knob. I have seen in other xt series the knobs are marked for shutter speed, exposure compensation and iso setting. Also, with fuji lens, can we control the aperture from the aperture ring in the lens like those old lens? I will be more than grateful for your kind answer. Thank you.
Understood, I described those in the preview video. ruclips.net/video/aDCRr_ir8T0/видео.html Otherwise, you'll find good detail in the free downloadable manual for the X-T100. The same controls are available for manual adjustment of shutter, ISO and EV, they're just not labelled and can be customized. Yes, some Fujifilm lenses (XF series) have marked aperture settings, others have a dial to set the aperture (setting appears on screen.)
Excellent review Maarten, found it very informative and helpful, especially the comparison shots on Flickr. I thought the X-T100 held up well against the X-T20, especially when it looked liked the X-T20 had an XF lens attached. I am most interested in decent jpegs within a budget. I tried a Canon M100 for a few weeks, but was very disappointed in the less than crisp results that I got, so returned that. My Sony RX100 M3 returned nicer results! I have just ordered an X-T100, largely based on your helpful information. Thank you.
I thought the x-t100 was a bad camera since its cheap, but when i switch it with my 2 new lens , 7Artisan 55mm f1.4, and fujicron XF 16mm f2.8, it can produce great image and more faster autofocus with the 16mm
They provide, more or less, the same quality as they have the same size sensor and equivalent resolution. The difference is in lenses, lighting and the ability of the photographer.
I have a trouble choosing between the X-T100 and Nikon D3500. I am a begginer and this will be my first camera. The Nikon D3500 is in a kit with lenses. one 18-55mm and one 70-300mm. My main purpose would be taking pictures more artistically. I would shoot portraits, street and nature pictures. I am looking forward to hearing from you !
Both are good choices. I'd take the D3500, but with a prime lens. What you give up in flexibility you will gain in quality. The D3500 is capable of better quality than either of those lenses provide.
Great video and review .. have been your subscriber for quite some time .. I needed ur advice .: I am a maxillofacial surgeon who needs a needs a camera for clicking pics of my cases in major and minor operation room ... I was going to buy the Nikon D5600 as it was in my budget .. but I am considering this camera after seeing ur review .. which one should I choose as my use will be limited to cases in major and minor operation room ??..
Both are good choices. Either way, if you do want to do closeups, I'd get a macro lens (they're not just for macro images, but will provide the capability to focus on a very small area. I'd probably take the X-T100, as it's smaller and has a little better low light capability - but again, that's lens dependent.
Great video Maarten, found it very informative and helpful. I would like to know, what do you prefer between fuji xt-10 with the kit 18-55 and the xt-100 with kit 15-45 at the same price? Thanks :) ps:xt-20 was my firs choice, but it's a little pricier
I'd still recommend the X-T20. While the X-T10 is fine, and that's an excellent kit lens (better than the 15-45) its focus features are not as well-developed- although that might have changed with some firmware updates.
@@MaartenHeilbron Thank you for the answer. In your opinion, between the xt-20 and xt-10, not considering the the focus feature, is there a lot of difference in the image quality?
@@MaartenHeilbron thank you again! You're very kind. If i can ask you one last thing, what would you prefer between xt-100 and xt-10? I saw that you reviewed both of them.
I'm currently tossing up between the X-T100 and the X-T20 . I think that I will go for the X-T20 based on the colour differences between the Bayer and X-trans sensors! Bayer seems more washed out to me, especially outdoors. Unsure how lens would have influenced this - surely not that much!
Excellent review. One question - does it have a manual focus assist mode like the one in Sony Alpha A6000 series where the subject in focus gets colored differently?
It does. Fujifilm cameras generally have 3 manual focus options (called MF Assist) expanded view, split image and peaking.Peaking presents the edges of the object in focus with the selected colour.
I appreciate the kind words. While it's possible to adjust the audio recording level, there is no setting for silent recording. Note that the high speed video mode is silent.
@@MaartenHeilbron Hi Maarten, thanks for your reply. By custom settings I mean the c1-c7 that can be found in the fujifilm q menu. These are the quick settings where you can save in one of them things like wb, film simulation and shadows or higlights. I remember seeing them on x-t20 and x-t2. Thanks again!
Nearly all quality cameras are good for many things and most styles of photography. To be good at macro and portrait work, the lens selection is more important than the camera. My needs go beyond what the X-T100 offers.
Hi Mr. Heilbron, fantastic review as always! You mentioned that swiping is bit of a hit and miss. Could you try swiping past the edge of the screen and see if it works more consistently?
Thanks, I appreciate your kind words. I've tried all variations on swiping - fast/slow, start on/off, finger/thumb ... if there's a trick to this, I can't figure it out. Just wish the four control buttons were customizable.
@@MaartenHeilbron hi Mr. Heilbron! It's been a few months but I wanted to let you know that I've gotten pretty consistent results with the X-T100's touch gestures. Basically all I need to do is make a flicking motion (instead of swiping), like I'm trying to flick a bug away from the screen. With a flicking motion the only reason I fail is if the camera is busy processing something. It's pretty consistent. Hope it helps!
Hey Maarten, Should i buy this camera if my main priority is stills shooting and very light vlogging? I'm buying my first camera and on a limited budget, i find this camera under my budget as I am getting it under $400
If this is what your budget can afford, then you will learn to live with the limitations. You should not have any issues with stills, video will be more of a challenge.
@@MaartenHeilbron Thanks Sir, I really like your voice and your content, Your opinion really matters. Once again thanks and lots of love from one of your fan in India.
Hi, can you help me choose between Fujifilm XT100 and Sony a6000? I am going to use the camera mainly for taking pictures, maybe some video. Also do you think the lack of OIS in Fuji prime lens will make a huge difference?
I don't know any built-in flashes of any brand that support HSS. The question is whether the T100 permits HSS to an external flash that has the functionality, for example the pocketable TT350F from Godox/Flashpoint.
If you have only one image, it feels pretty quick. If you have a lot, it feels fairly slow. Connecting is usually reliable, but it can sometimes be fiddly. Thanks, I appreciate the kind words.
Hello sir, I'm a beginner. I'm planning to buy a camera to do vlogging and few amateur photography. My choice are Fujifilm X-a5 and X-T100. Which one would you recommend. Love your videos and specially your voice, it is totally an ASMR therapy.
The only difference I could see between the two sensors was that the white balance seemed different. But I didn't detect any consistecy in which had the more magenta or green tint - it seemed to vary. Generally the Bayer looked more natural outdoors, but less so indoors. Now I may have asked this question before, but I don't recall receiving an answer that I could understand: At 8:17 you talk about EVF autorotation. I don't at all understand what that does. In a DSLR with an optical viewfinder, the image will of course stay upright, nomatter which way you turn the camera. (And I think I'd find it confusing if it didn't). How is an electronic viewfinder different? What is rotated, and why?
We were both shooting with sunlight white balance (I thought auto could be different, but) And that's my observation, no consistency - but worried about what is causing the difference. Didn't see any moire. EVF rotation is the onscreen overlay, Most cameras don't rotate the information to portrait mode, Fuji does. Does that make sense? Whichever way you turn, the on-screen text is right way up.
Good day sir. I've never had a digital camera before, only a film one and I've been wanting to get a mirrorless camera. Is the Fujifilm XT100 enough for an entry-level hobbyist like me? Or should I spend $200 more and buy the XT20? I only want to shoot portraits, landscape, and such. Also, can you lecture me on this? Do all Fuji lenses fit on this XT100 body or is it only "lens for this model" and stuff?
Yes, all x-mount lenses are compatible with cameras with x-mounts. The X-T100 is more than enough to get started and perfect for the photo types you mention.
Before my comment, I want to say that I have not done any photography and I don't own a camera (yet), so I am a complete newb. But I am looking for a camera, and considering the X-T100. In this video, compared to the X-T20, the photos from X-T100 look like they were taken with a smartphone camera (mostly because of the difference in detail and dynamic range). I don't know why it looks like this to me. Is it the kit lens that it comes with? If so, Would I be better off buying the body itself, and a better lens? And, by the way, I find your videos great, and very informative.
Thank you, I do appreciate your kind words. The difference in dynamic range is due to the sensor (the X-Trans of the X-T20 provides more). I'm not sure how to explain the difference you perceive in detail - I think they're pretty much the same. The 18-55 kit lens is the best kit provided by any manufacturer, so although Fujfilm does make some very nice primes, I think you are well served by the 18-55. Have you considered the X-T20?
@@MaartenHeilbron Thank you for the quick reply. In terms of the detail, it may be the youtube video compression, or it may be the case that I don't really know what I'm talking about. But I do see a great difference between the photos from those two cameras. I saw the X-T20 is a bit older, yet more expensive, but when comparing them on paper I don't really know how to justify one or the other. I am planning on going to a shop to try a bunch of different cameras they have on display. I really like the articulating screen on the X-T100, and the X-T20 and the X-T30 have only tilt, which makes me not really want them. Currently I can afford any of these three models, but don't really know what more I get when i spend more...
You will see the photos in more detail on my flickr album. The difference in sensor array (X-Trans vs. Bayer) makes me prefer the X-T20. I think that there's often not much correlation between the date that a camera was released and its functionality. The X-T20 (or X-T30) are more capable models.
@@MaartenHeilbron Sir, my needs are to take photos and print in poster size. Mostly landscapes, pets, automobiles etc. Sometimes low light photos as well, for that I value the necessity of viewfinder. I don't want to take selfies nor record videos. As Fuji XT100 has a larger sensor, does it capture more details than those shot with SonyRX100? - I intend to print in a large size, and not necessarily for social media. Also, I own a Canon 600 D, but I also wish to have a good secondary camera for my humble needs. As per your experience, which camera out of Fuji XT100 and Sony RX100 can be best for my needs. Awaiting your valuable response.
@@dogswhomistookarockforacro4667 Resolution determines how detailed the image is. The 24MP of the X-T100 will provide slightly more detail. If you are printing poster size, the X-T100 is likely the better choice.
If yes, how to do that? I've gifted this to my sister and we can't find any settings for live recording and as soon as I connect micro USB to laptop, the screen goes "USB" and nothing else works
Live broadcasting might be possible with X Webcam, but I'm not sure it's been implemented here, and I've not been able to make it work on others. You can stream a live feed from any camera using the Blackmagic ATEM Mini goo.gl/maps/vbZQbUU4XpDuiisa7
@@joyxplorers hey, you need to use some kind of capture card in order to take a signal from camera hdmi out to your laptop. for example elgato camlink.
I will consider that as a possibility, but there are a number of events that might get ahead of this request. Either is a good choice, Fuji’s x mount lens selection is better than Canon’s m-mount.
Sir, I recently purchased the camera due to budget constraint. M50 was my first preference. I like the camera overall but the hissing noise in the video while using external mic are really annoying. Do you face this issue while recording HD video? Did you find a solution to minimize it please? Please guide me to reduce the hissing sound. Many Thanks.
hi maaarten i dunno if i missed this in ur video ..you've said the lens has a focus ring but nor an aperture ring .. if it dosen't have one.. how do we adjust the aperture manually ?
I just recently purchased the Fujifilm XT100, but I want to get a bigger, more proper, studio flash for it. I do a lot of product shots and models-in-front-of-backdrop shots in studio. Can you point me in the right direction for what professional flash I can get that is compatible with the XT100? I also am sick of the stock lens it came with. What kind of lenses are compatible with the XT100? Specifically fish-eye, Do they have to be Fujifilm lenses in order to work on this specific body? Much appreciated.
Fujifilm's top of the line flash is excellent. ruclips.net/video/IX1-ilFIVdY/видео.html As for fish eye lenses, I'm sorry but don't have any recommendations.
Hello Maartin, your guidance would be appreciated. I'm stuck at deciding between 2 cameras. This x-t100 and the Panasonic g85. My goal is photography, not video. I'd like to have lens options thus no canon m50. Landscapes, family vacations, selfies, portraits are all a goal. Weather sealing not critical as I'll buy drop/liquid insurance. Your opinion please ?
I was about to pick up a nikon d3400 when the look of these fujis caught my eye. The problem is this xt100 is about $200 more, other models such as the xt20 aren't anywhere near the same price point, and I'm not seeing the value in comparison. Maybe for my next purchase I can justify the more premium versions. It's a shame; these cameras are beautiful.
After selling my x100s due to its focus problem , i finally got my xt20 .. I know it's a bit late as the xt30 is already on the market but i think it serves me well for my purpose :)
That was a good review and now I am no longer set on trading my Nikon D5300 on the T100. I would like to know if there is a digital camera similar to a 35 mm film camera. I thought I had found it with the T100, but I think my D 5300 may be the better camera for me.
No, there's no camera that is quite as limited as to take only 36 pictures before you must change the memory card, or require you to use the same ISO, white balance and colour profile for 24-36 consecutive shots, or that can't record video. That is, of course, assuming that your 35mm film camera has auto-exposure and focus capability. And there is no digital camera that requires you to wait several days before you can view your photos. There is lots to like about the T100, but I suspect that you're right and I see no reason that I would exchange the D5300 (assuming it's in good working order) for the T100.
@S. Ray I see. Yes, have a look at some of the higher-end Fujifilm models. The X-H1 in particular has a very old school control set with a nice heavy build quality. ruclips.net/video/_SP01oY8Cks/видео.html
I borrowed a friend's xt100 during a hike. I loved the color science a lot. Question, during manual mode, I couldn't find the option to adjust exposure compensation. It was set at - 3 and I couldn't change it. Not sure why the exposure compensation would come in play when iso is set to manual
In manual mode, the left side display (which is exposure compensation in other modes) is the exposure meter. If it's -3, that's them meter reading for the current scene. Use ISO to adjust - which is what every other camera is doing, except they're calling it exposure compensation. There are only 3 exposure settings: aperture, shutter and ISO. Exposure compensation is not a magic fourth adjustment.
@@MaartenHeilbron coming from a canon, I use that meter to see how the exposure is. I think one of the settings in the camera for live exposure was turned off. The image looked fine through the view finder but after taking the picture the pic was too dark. I got Confused if I was on auto ISO but I wasn't. The camera has settings in German so I struggled to set the right exposure. I think exposure simulation in live view was off.
Just got the X-T100. Have you tried the iPhone app for syncing your photos to the phone? This feature sold me on the upgrade to this model but I have been very disappointed by the app and have found it very frustrating to use with connectivity issues and it just crashing.
The X-T100 is not a bad choice, but my channel is full of recommendations, and while I agree it's hard to narrow down the choices, this might help: ruclips.net/video/9WiJQF0JXIE/видео.html
Yes, but that depends on the lens. I wouldn't recommend the kit lens for low light, but Fuji makes several very good wide aperture primes that would be more suitable.
Yes. White, red and blue. I did and Fuji confirms that there is no HSS in this model - although they indicated that it would be possible for it to be added in a firmware update.
When i using manual mode, i dont know when i successful focus the object. I switched to Fujifilm x-t100 from canon dslr camera, when i used MF on DSLR, i know when i successful focus by the sound of the camera but with fujifilm x-t100, I have no idea ! i read on the internet that we have a focus peaking when it turned color when we turn the focus ring but i didn't find it at all
Sir is it good for indoor video recording for teaching purpose..?? And what is the maximum vedio recording time for this camera continuously for one single video..??
It could be, although you might need lighting if the scene is not well lit, or the teacher is not well-illuminated. The time limit is 30 minutes (4K and HD).
Can you tell me if auto focus speed for shooting street stills has an issue or slow? I use nikon 7000 and want an entry to small mirrorless segment mainly for photography. Thnks Maarten.
There are certainly faster cameras, both from Fujifilm and others, however, for most uses it's fast enough. It is likely better than the D7000, but I didn't compare side by side.
@@MaartenHeilbron Thank you for the response Maarten! I really want to get the xt100 to build a glass collection and eventually uprgade to a xt3 or something newer down the line. However the gx85 holds it own in value as it is cheaper and comes with bundle lenses and is great in 4k but I'm on the fence of its still image performance. I guess what I'm trying to ask is would you reccomend the gx85 for professional looking stills ?
@@anthonys4398 Most cameras can produce professional quality stills. Although there is some difference in lenses, for the most part, it's the capability of the photographer and their use of light that creates a professional image. It's rarely about the camera.
@@MaartenHeilbron Hello good sir. I am about to buy my first camera mostly for still photography purposes, I have no interest in shooting video on it. Would you recommend Fujifilm X-T100 or Canon M50 for that? Thank you!
@@MaartenHeilbron Thank you very much for your response. I have no brand preference, but I am searching for a camera that will do better in colour richness and sharper shots between T-X100 and M50. I am very much into landscape photography. I am also aware that the lens plays a huge role, but I will have to make do with the kit lens for few months first. Once again, thank you wholeheartedly for your time and keep up the splendid work! I simply love your channel!
@@durzog3668 Thanks for your very kind words. I would suggest that the Fujifilm film simulations, along with the other highlight, shadow and saturation adjustments would yield better out of camera results.
Mr. Heilbron - Do you think that the color difference in the photos taken with the X T20 and the ones taken with the X T100 is a result of the different sensors as opposed to the processing algorithms? The review implies that the difference is caused by the different sensors. If shooting in raw, can one get the same colors from either camera (more or less) through post processing?
I'm not sure what the reasons are - there are too many factors to consider, not all of which are under Fuji's control. In the end interesting, but not really valid. Yes, when shooting RAW, adjustments can be made to achieve the same colours from both - or from virtually any camera.
Is focusing really a problem with this camera? I'd like some speedy focus for the moment and for random instantaneous moments you never know what you may capture. So my other two choices are a5100 and a6000. Please reply asap :)
@@MaartenHeilbron I hope I can adjust myself accordingly, the XT 100 would my first camera ever. Thank you for the reply. Also you have the best content of this field! Respect!
Please help. Hi, in india, is 1/2 times the price of M50, is it half the camera? I am a buget buyer already have 600d for 3 years and 4 lens(50,24,kit55-250) , dont know if i should exchange to m50 or keep the canon and work with2 bodies. Though question, right
Either would be a good choice, the Canon has a little more flexibility, the Fuji has a better lens selection. And of course, it's your preference with colour science you prefer.
Maarten Heilbron helo sir, i just love the way fuji xt100 and i need for vlogging dan photo. but, my friend telling better i choose canon m50 bcz the quality of video more better than xt100. im confused 😔 may you can give me an advice?
@@ItsawlaysZara Although it might depend on whose colour rendition you prefer, I would go with the X-T100, primarily for the film simulations, which really simplify the creation of good JPEG images with a variety of colour models.

Thanks for the kind words, so try to be so misleading. "Pure" isn't me.
Thank you for the class, Maarten!! 🥰 I just bought my x-t100 and now I need to try and test all the options! 🙏
Have fun! Always nice to hear from viewers who appreciate my videos, thanks!!
@@MaartenHeilbron hugs from Mafra, Portugal! 😊🇵🇹
Thanks! Please say hello to all my friends in Mafra.
While comparison between XT20 and XT100 pictures is not exactly fair because different lenses are used, I was surprised to see so much colour difference between the 2 cameras. I admit I refer XT20. Thanks so much for this comparison Maarten.
We were surprised too, yes different lenses. Thanks for the kind words, always my pleasure.
I have rented this for this weekend. With my first few pictures at home, I am shocked to see that Astia and Provia show much more saturation than they do with other Fuji cameras. Don't really like that. My south asian yellow-ish skin looks jaundice yellow and my caucasian partner's looks like he has got some redness on the skin....something weird going on there.
Are the photos exposed properly? This sounds like an underexposure problem?
They were, I checked again. In fact I took the pictures exactly where I check all cameras after hiring / buying.. to check skin tones, etc. In fact XT1, XA3 have been great. Sony A7 series ( as much as I love), Canon M5, not so much. Maybe it fits with your observation that the colours in this are not as good.
From your description that's a greater discrepancy than I would have expected.
Thanks Maarten for an entertaining review. I own an XE2 and am in a dilemma over whether to replace it with this XT100. Video and action shoots are not important to me as I am into landscape, portrait, street and still life. The XT100 seems to meet my needs and would like your comment on its differences with the XE2. Thanks and take care.
What specific issues leave the X-E2 deficient in your practice? I'm not sure the X-T100 is much of an upgrade.
And thank you for your great production and your classy personality.
I appreciate your sense of humour, thanks.
Brilliant review! Much better than other "famous" youtuber!
Thanks, but wait! There's another famous youtube creator?
An excellent review; this is on my shortlist for first ILC (I don't care about video.) You're an oasis of positivity on the internet! :)
How kind of you to say, thanks for taking the time to comment.
Looks like a good beginners camera. Didn't expect it would be that heavy. The xpro2 is around the same weight! Thanks for the video. It was a very well made video as usual.
Thanks, I appreciate your kind words.
Hi Maarten, thank you once again for this great review. I just have few questions if u can help me. What are the top knobs/buttons for in xt100? They are unmarked except the shooting option knob. I have seen in other xt series the knobs are marked for shutter speed, exposure compensation and iso setting.
Also, with fuji lens, can we control the aperture from the aperture ring in the lens like those old lens? I will be more than grateful for your kind answer. Thank you.
Understood, I described those in the preview video. ruclips.net/video/aDCRr_ir8T0/видео.html
Otherwise, you'll find good detail in the free downloadable manual for the X-T100. The same controls are available for manual adjustment of shutter, ISO and EV, they're just not labelled and can be customized.
Yes, some Fujifilm lenses (XF series) have marked aperture settings, others have a dial to set the aperture (setting appears on screen.)
Such a nice video :D That's how you explain camera features... were you a teacher?
A pleasure to read your kind words. Although my spouse is a teacher, I am not.
Excellent review Maarten, found it very informative and helpful, especially the comparison shots on Flickr. I thought the X-T100 held up well against the X-T20, especially when it looked liked the X-T20 had an XF lens attached. I am most interested in decent jpegs within a budget. I tried a Canon M100 for a few weeks, but was very disappointed in the less than crisp results that I got, so returned that. My Sony RX100 M3 returned nicer results!
I have just ordered an X-T100, largely based on your helpful information. Thank you.
It's always nice to hear from viewers who found my videos useful, thanks for taking the time to comment.
I thought the x-t100 was a bad camera since its cheap, but when i switch it with my 2 new lens , 7Artisan 55mm f1.4, and fujicron XF 16mm f2.8, it can produce great image and more faster autofocus with the 16mm
@@alexanderreyes8513 That's great, thanks! Always nice to hear from a photographer who has found a camera and lenses that meets their needs.
Fuji xt100 or Sony a6000 which will give best picture quality??? please reply
They provide, more or less, the same quality as they have the same size sensor and equivalent resolution. The difference is in lenses, lighting and the ability of the photographer.
Any chance of a Ricoh GR II review? (addressing the apparent sensor dust issue on current production units of that camera would be very helpful!)
I keep asking, but no luck with Ricoh so far.
I have a trouble choosing between the X-T100 and Nikon D3500. I am a begginer and this will be my first camera. The Nikon D3500 is in a kit with lenses. one 18-55mm and one 70-300mm. My main purpose would be taking pictures more artistically. I would shoot portraits, street and nature pictures. I am looking forward to hearing from you !
Both are good choices. I'd take the D3500, but with a prime lens. What you give up in flexibility you will gain in quality. The D3500 is capable of better quality than either of those lenses provide.
Maarten Heilbron Thank you so much for your opinion. I will take the prime lens in consideration.
Great video and review .. have been your subscriber for quite some time .. I needed ur advice .: I am a maxillofacial surgeon who needs a needs a camera for clicking pics of my cases in major and minor operation room ... I was going to buy the Nikon D5600 as it was in my budget .. but I am considering this camera after seeing ur review .. which one should I choose as my use will be limited to cases in major and minor operation room ??..
Both are good choices. Either way, if you do want to do closeups, I'd get a macro lens (they're not just for macro images, but will provide the capability to focus on a very small area. I'd probably take the X-T100, as it's smaller and has a little better low light capability - but again, that's lens dependent.
Maarten Heilbron thank u for your advice !
You are always helpful .. pls keep up the good work 😊

Хороший обзор! Good Work!
Thank you! Я ценю твои добрые слова.
Great video Maarten, found it very informative and helpful. I would like to know, what do you prefer between fuji xt-10 with the kit 18-55 and the xt-100 with kit 15-45 at the same price? Thanks :) ps:xt-20 was my firs choice, but it's a little pricier
I'd still recommend the X-T20. While the X-T10 is fine, and that's an excellent kit lens (better than the 15-45) its focus features are not as well-developed- although that might have changed with some firmware updates.
@@MaartenHeilbron Thank you for the answer. In your opinion, between the xt-20 and xt-10, not considering the the focus feature, is there a lot of difference in the image quality?
Very little difference in image quality, except at higher ISO values. Always happy to help.
@@MaartenHeilbron thank you again! You're very kind. If i can ask you one last thing, what would you prefer between xt-100 and xt-10? I saw that you reviewed both of them.
@@paridecoppelli6804 I would probably choose the X-T10.
I'm currently tossing up between the X-T100 and the X-T20 . I think that I will go for the X-T20 based on the colour differences between the Bayer and X-trans sensors! Bayer seems more washed out to me, especially outdoors. Unsure how lens would have influenced this - surely not that much!
Yes, not that much. X-Trans definitely delivers a more contrasty image with purer colours. I too would choose the X-T20.
We just got one T 💯. Primarily for street, travel and landscape photography. Not looking at video with X T 💯
@@Blackboarddiscover Always nice to hear from a viewer who has found a camera suitable for their needs.
Wait, does this mean that it can shoot 4k 30p while using an external monitor? I'm confused haha. But if it did, that would be cool
You can't shoot 4K/30 while using an external monitor. Maybe with an external recorder.
@@MaartenHeilbron Oh, got it. Thank you!
Excellent review. One question - does it have a manual focus assist mode like the one in Sony Alpha A6000 series where the subject in focus gets colored differently?
It does. Fujifilm cameras generally have 3 manual focus options (called MF Assist) expanded view, split image and peaking.Peaking presents the edges of the object in focus with the selected colour.
thank you for excellent review. May i know that is it possible to mute sound while recording videos? Many thanks
I appreciate the kind words. While it's possible to adjust the audio recording level, there is no setting for silent recording. Note that the high speed video mode is silent.
Hi Maarten, do you remember if it's possibile to create some Custom Settings, like the other fuji's? Thanks alot! And as always, great review!
Not sure which you mean. The Q menu has 7 custom settings, the display can also be customized.
@@MaartenHeilbron Hi Maarten, thanks for your reply. By custom settings I mean the c1-c7 that can be found in the fujifilm q menu. These are the quick settings where you can save in one of them things like wb, film simulation and shadows or higlights. I remember seeing them on x-t20 and x-t2.
Thanks again!
@@paridecoppelli6804 And I should have said that both are available on the X-T100.
@@MaartenHeilbron ah my fault, I didn't understand the first answer.
Thanks again Maarten, your review are the best on RUclips!
@@paridecoppelli6804 I'm always happy to help, thanks for your kind words.
is xt 100 good for macro and portrait photography....I already buyed one...Would u prefer it...?
Nearly all quality cameras are good for many things and most styles of photography. To be good at macro and portrait work, the lens selection is more important than the camera.
My needs go beyond what the X-T100 offers.
Would you choose this over a6000? I’m choosing between the two cameras. Would love your input. Thanks :)
Depends on my needs, I find lots to like about both cameras, but the X-T100 has the newer advantage.
Congrats on 50k Maarten!
Thank you - it's really a most gratifying achievement - and I see you're nearing the 50K make also!
Maarten Heilbron Thank you! My content doesn't compare to yours though. Keep up the amazing work!
That's very kind of you to say.
Hi Mr. Heilbron, fantastic review as always! You mentioned that swiping is bit of a hit and miss. Could you try swiping past the edge of the screen and see if it works more consistently?
Thanks, I appreciate your kind words. I've tried all variations on swiping - fast/slow, start on/off, finger/thumb ... if there's a trick to this, I can't figure it out. Just wish the four control buttons were customizable.
@@MaartenHeilbron hi Mr. Heilbron! It's been a few months but I wanted to let you know that I've gotten pretty consistent results with the X-T100's touch gestures. Basically all I need to do is make a flicking motion (instead of swiping), like I'm trying to flick a bug away from the screen. With a flicking motion the only reason I fail is if the camera is busy processing something. It's pretty consistent. Hope it helps!
I will keep trying to learn the secrets of the successful flick.
Cute camera. Shame about video frame rates :-(
I know!
At this price point, guess this maximum value for money. 😜
@@Blackboarddiscover Well, although older, there are a couple of other value competitors, like the Sony A6000.
Hey Maarten,
Should i buy this camera if my main priority is stills shooting and very light vlogging?
I'm buying my first camera and on a limited budget, i find this camera under my budget as I am getting it under $400
If this is what your budget can afford, then you will learn to live with the limitations. You should not have any issues with stills, video will be more of a challenge.
@@MaartenHeilbron Thanks Sir, I really like your voice and your content, Your opinion really matters.
Once again thanks and lots of love from one of your fan in India.
Hi, can you help me choose between Fujifilm XT100 and Sony a6000? I am going to use the camera mainly for taking pictures, maybe some video. Also do you think the lack of OIS in Fuji prime lens will make a huge difference?
Either is a good choice. What specific situations are you expecting to be able to need OIS?
I don't know any built-in flashes of any brand that support HSS. The question is whether the T100 permits HSS to an external flash that has the functionality, for example the pocketable TT350F from Godox/Flashpoint.
Excellent question.
It was a great review.. But can I usee this came for shooting dance video?
You can use this camera for anything. However, it would not be my first choice for video.
How quick is smartphone file transfer over WiFi? Ease of connection too. Great comprehensive review!
If you have only one image, it feels pretty quick. If you have a lot, it feels fairly slow. Connecting is usually reliable, but it can sometimes be fiddly. Thanks, I appreciate the kind words.
Hello sir, I'm a beginner. I'm planning to buy a camera to do vlogging and few amateur photography. My choice are Fujifilm X-a5 and X-T100. Which one would you recommend. Love your videos and specially your voice, it is totally an ASMR therapy.
Wait for the X-A7, I'm reviewing it now, and it's likely the better choice for vlogging.
@@MaartenHeilbron excited for the video.
It will be good.
The only difference I could see between the two sensors was that the white balance seemed different. But I didn't detect any consistecy in which had the more magenta or green tint - it seemed to vary. Generally the Bayer looked more natural outdoors, but less so indoors.
Now I may have asked this question before, but I don't recall receiving an answer that I could understand:
At 8:17 you talk about EVF autorotation. I don't at all understand what that does. In a DSLR with an optical viewfinder, the image will of course stay upright, nomatter which way you turn the camera. (And I think I'd find it confusing if it didn't). How is an electronic viewfinder different? What is rotated, and why?
We were both shooting with sunlight white balance (I thought auto could be different, but) And that's my observation, no consistency - but worried about what is causing the difference. Didn't see any moire.
EVF rotation is the onscreen overlay, Most cameras don't rotate the information to portrait mode, Fuji does. Does that make sense? Whichever way you turn, the on-screen text is right way up.
That makes sense, thank you.
always happy to help
Hi Maarten! Which one is better XT-10 or XT-100? Thank you😊
They can both be "better", depending on your needs, your wallet, your hand, your sense of style and your approach to photography.
@@MaartenHeilbron thank you so much😊
Sir please suggest me ..which one should I prefer Canon EOS 3000d or Fuji's XT 100??
I have no idea which you should prefer. I am not familiar with the 3000D.
Good day sir. I've never had a digital camera before, only a film one and I've been wanting to get a mirrorless camera. Is the Fujifilm XT100 enough for an entry-level hobbyist like me? Or should I spend $200 more and buy the XT20? I only want to shoot portraits, landscape, and such. Also, can you lecture me on this? Do all Fuji lenses fit on this XT100 body or is it only "lens for this model" and stuff?
Yes, all x-mount lenses are compatible with cameras with x-mounts. The X-T100 is more than enough to get started and perfect for the photo types you mention.
@@MaartenHeilbron Thank you so much for replying, sir. God bless you.
Thanks for the kind words, always appreciated.
Before my comment, I want to say that I have not done any photography and I don't own a camera (yet), so I am a complete newb. But I am looking for a camera, and considering the X-T100. In this video, compared to the X-T20, the photos from X-T100 look like they were taken with a smartphone camera (mostly because of the difference in detail and dynamic range). I don't know why it looks like this to me. Is it the kit lens that it comes with? If so, Would I be better off buying the body itself, and a better lens? And, by the way, I find your videos great, and very informative.
Thank you, I do appreciate your kind words. The difference in dynamic range is due to the sensor (the X-Trans of the X-T20 provides more). I'm not sure how to explain the difference you perceive in detail - I think they're pretty much the same.
The 18-55 kit lens is the best kit provided by any manufacturer, so although Fujfilm does make some very nice primes, I think you are well served by the 18-55.
Have you considered the X-T20?
@@MaartenHeilbron Thank you for the quick reply. In terms of the detail, it may be the youtube video compression, or it may be the case that I don't really know what I'm talking about. But I do see a great difference between the photos from those two cameras. I saw the X-T20 is a bit older, yet more expensive, but when comparing them on paper I don't really know how to justify one or the other. I am planning on going to a shop to try a bunch of different cameras they have on display. I really like the articulating screen on the X-T100, and the X-T20 and the X-T30 have only tilt, which makes me not really want them. Currently I can afford any of these three models, but don't really know what more I get when i spend more...
You will see the photos in more detail on my flickr album. The difference in sensor array (X-Trans vs. Bayer) makes me prefer the X-T20. I think that there's often not much correlation between the date that a camera was released and its functionality. The X-T20 (or X-T30) are more capable models.
Hello sir, can you recommend this camera for traveling, street photography and vlogging? I’m not a pro just a beginner.
Yes, I can recommend it for that purpose.
Maarten Heilbron thanks for your kind reply sir
Dear Maarten, as an everyday camera should I buy Fuji XT100 or Sony RX100 iii? Please do reply; I'm almost lost in the thought process.
Without some understanding of your experience, needs and intentions, either is a fine choice.
@@MaartenHeilbron Sir, my needs are to take photos and print in poster size. Mostly landscapes, pets, automobiles etc. Sometimes low light photos as well, for that I value the necessity of viewfinder. I don't want to take selfies nor record videos.
As Fuji XT100 has a larger sensor, does it capture more details than those shot with SonyRX100? - I intend to print in a large size, and not necessarily for social media. Also, I own a Canon 600 D, but I also wish to have a good secondary camera for my humble needs.
As per your experience, which camera out of Fuji XT100 and Sony RX100 can be best for my needs.
Awaiting your valuable response.
@@dogswhomistookarockforacro4667 Resolution determines how detailed the image is. The 24MP of the X-T100 will provide slightly more detail. If you are printing poster size, the X-T100 is likely the better choice.
@@MaartenHeilbron Thank you so much for helping me go with more ideal choices.
Outstanding review. One question, can X-T100 be used for live broadcasting?
If yes, how to do that? I've gifted this to my sister and we can't find any settings for live recording and as soon as I connect micro USB to laptop, the screen goes "USB" and nothing else works
Live broadcasting might be possible with X Webcam, but I'm not sure it's been implemented here, and I've not been able to make it work on others. You can stream a live feed from any camera using the Blackmagic ATEM Mini goo.gl/maps/vbZQbUU4XpDuiisa7

I don't really. The X-T20/30 or X-T2/3/4 are considerably better cameras.
I was about to pick up a nikon d3400 when the look of these fujis caught my eye. The problem is this xt100 is about $200 more, other models such as the xt20 aren't anywhere near the same price point, and I'm not seeing the value in comparison.

Hi have you tried higher quality x mount lenses with this camera?
I only had this camera for the review period. I did not try lenses other than those in this video.
That was a good review and now I am no longer set on trading my Nikon D5300 on the T100. I would like to know if there is a digital camera similar to a 35 mm film camera. I thought I had found it with the T100, but I think my D 5300 may be the better camera for me.
No, there's no camera that is quite as limited as to take only 36 pictures before you must change the memory card, or require you to use the same ISO, white balance and colour profile for 24-36 consecutive shots, or that can't record video. That is, of course, assuming that your 35mm film camera has auto-exposure and focus capability. And there is no digital camera that requires you to wait several days before you can view your photos.
There is lots to like about the T100, but I suspect that you're right and I see no reason that I would exchange the D5300 (assuming it's in good working order) for the T100.
@@MaartenHeilbron I meant similar in looks and feel not in capabilities.
@S. Ray I see. Yes, have a look at some of the higher-end Fujifilm models. The X-H1 in particular has a very old school control set with a nice heavy build quality. ruclips.net/video/_SP01oY8Cks/видео.html
I borrowed a friend's xt100 during a hike. I loved the color science a lot.
Question, during manual mode, I couldn't find the option to adjust exposure compensation. It was set at - 3 and I couldn't change it. Not sure why the exposure compensation would come in play when iso is set to manual
In manual mode, the left side display (which is exposure compensation in other modes) is the exposure meter. If it's -3, that's them meter reading for the current scene. Use ISO to adjust - which is what every other camera is doing, except they're calling it exposure compensation. There are only 3 exposure settings: aperture, shutter and ISO. Exposure compensation is not a magic fourth adjustment.
@@MaartenHeilbron coming from a canon, I use that meter to see how the exposure is. I think one of the settings in the camera for live exposure was turned off. The image looked fine through the view finder but after taking the picture the pic was too dark.
I got Confused if I was on auto ISO but I wasn't. The camera has settings in German so I struggled to set the right exposure.
I think exposure simulation in live view was off.
@@tejassrinivasan24 It sounds as if it must have been off, otherwise you would see the exposure accurately.
Just got the X-T100. Have you tried the iPhone app for syncing your photos to the phone? This feature sold me on the upgrade to this model but I have been very disappointed by the app and have found it very frustrating to use with connectivity issues and it just crashing.
Yes, I used the iPhone version with success, photos were transferred automatically as I expected.
Which one should I choose between canon 800 D and Fuji xt 100 for photo ?
Either is a good choice, I'd take the X-T100, mostly for aesthetic reasons.
Hi I am planning to buy a mirrorless camera which is good in low light, do you have any recommendations?
The X-T100 is not a bad choice, but my channel is full of recommendations, and while I agree it's hard to narrow down the choices, this might help: ruclips.net/video/9WiJQF0JXIE/видео.html
Hi, I'm planning on buying the xt100. Is this good in low light? I usually take pictures in low light sceneries.
Yes, but that depends on the lens. I wouldn't recommend the kit lens for low light, but Fuji makes several very good wide aperture primes that would be more suitable.
@@MaartenHeilbron thanks. Will definitely buy this as my first camera.
I trust you will find it suitable for your needs.
What's the best mode for vlogging especially with auto ISO?
Manual exposure (aperture and shutter), manual focus. Keep the same distance from the camera. Use a tripod.
@@MaartenHeilbron been struggling with auto ISO with manual mode. tried portrait mode and i think it's the best for me.
Two questions: Do it has focus peaking? If yes, what color?
You said HSS was missing, have you try Godox X1tF wireless trigger?
Yes. White, red and blue.
I did and Fuji confirms that there is no HSS in this model - although they indicated that it would be possible for it to be added in a firmware update.
Thanks for the respond. I guess I will pick it up for the Bayer sensor. I do owned X-E1, X-T1 and X-T2. Thanks for your time!

When i using manual mode, i dont know when i successful focus the object. I switched to Fujifilm x-t100 from canon dslr camera, when i used MF on DSLR, i know when i successful focus by the sound of the camera but with fujifilm x-t100, I have no idea ! i read on the internet that we have a focus peaking when it turned color when we turn the focus ring but i didn't find it at all
Instead of peaking, try some of the other manual focus assists, like expanded view. Turn Focus check on.
Sir is it good for indoor video recording for teaching purpose..?? And what is the maximum vedio recording time for this camera continuously for one single video..??
It could be, although you might need lighting if the scene is not well lit, or the teacher is not well-illuminated. The time limit is 30 minutes (4K and HD).
Can you tell me if auto focus speed for shooting street stills has an issue or slow? I use nikon 7000 and want an entry to small mirrorless segment mainly for photography. Thnks Maarten.
There are certainly faster cameras, both from Fujifilm and others, however, for most uses it's fast enough. It is likely better than the D7000, but I didn't compare side by side.
I am between this and a gx85 which would you reccomend for both video and stills if you had to choose . Thanks in advance your reviews are the best!
Both are fine cameras, based on a specific need for a feature, I would choose either one.
@@MaartenHeilbron Thank you for the response Maarten! I really want to get the xt100 to build a glass collection and eventually uprgade to a xt3 or something newer down the line. However the gx85 holds it own in value as it is cheaper and comes with bundle lenses and is great in 4k but I'm on the fence of its still image performance. I guess what I'm trying to ask is would you reccomend the gx85 for professional looking stills ?
@@anthonys4398 Most cameras can produce professional quality stills. Although there is some difference in lenses, for the most part, it's the capability of the photographer and their use of light that creates a professional image. It's rarely about the camera.
review comparison between xt 100 vs canon m50 please?
Thanks for the request, but I'm not sure I'll be able to assist with that.
@@MaartenHeilbron Hello good sir. I am about to buy my first camera mostly for still photography purposes, I have no interest in shooting video on it. Would you recommend Fujifilm X-T100 or Canon M50 for that? Thank you!
@@durzog3668 I am sure either would be fine. Let your wallet, your hand and your brand preference guide your decision.
@@MaartenHeilbron Thank you very much for your response. I have no brand preference, but I am searching for a camera that will do better in colour richness and sharper shots between T-X100 and M50. I am very much into landscape photography. I am also aware that the lens plays a huge role, but I will have to make do with the kit lens for few months first.
Once again, thank you wholeheartedly for your time and keep up the splendid work! I simply love your channel!
@@durzog3668 Thanks for your very kind words. I would suggest that the Fujifilm film simulations, along with the other highlight, shadow and saturation adjustments would yield better out of camera results.
Mr. Heilbron - Do you think that the color difference in the photos taken with the X T20 and the ones taken with the X T100 is a result of the different sensors as opposed to the processing algorithms? The review implies that the difference is caused by the different sensors. If shooting in raw, can one get the same colors from either camera (more or less) through post processing?
I'm not sure what the reasons are - there are too many factors to consider, not all of which are under Fuji's control. In the end interesting, but not really valid.
Yes, when shooting RAW, adjustments can be made to achieve the same colours from both - or from virtually any camera.
Thanks for your reply. I appreciate it.
always happy to help
Will you recommend this to a beginner? I'm getting this for a little under 400$
Sure, if this camera meets your needs, it's a good choice.
@@MaartenHeilbron thanks!
Does this camera have manual focus in video/movie mode that can be controlled with the focus puller ring on the 15-45 kit lens ?
Yes.
Is focusing really a problem with this camera? I'd like some speedy focus for the moment and for random instantaneous moments you never know what you may capture. So my other two choices are a5100 and a6000. Please reply asap :)
Focusing isn't a problem, but there are other cameras that are faster. Neither of your other two options are particularly fast either.
@@MaartenHeilbron I hope I can adjust myself accordingly, the XT 100 would my first camera ever. Thank you for the reply. Also you have the best content of this field! Respect!
That's very kind of you to say, thanks for commenting.
Please help. Hi, in india, is 1/2 times the price of M50, is it half the camera? I am a buget buyer already have 600d for 3 years and 4 lens(50,24,kit55-250) , dont know if i should exchange to m50 or keep the canon and work with2 bodies. Though question, right
Work with the cameras you have - watch this: ruclips.net/video/IqnWplwYCtA/видео.html
Watching this in December '19 while this camera is down to $350. Does that price make this a no-brainer to back up my XT3?
Maybe - remember that this is a bayer array sensor, and the X-T3 is x-trans, so they're slightly different in their colour and contrast.
Hi! I would like to ask what would be a better beginner's camera, the Canon M50 vs. the Fujifilm XT100.
Either would be a good choice, the Canon has a little more flexibility, the Fuji has a better lens selection. And of course, it's your preference with colour science you prefer.
Maarten Heilbron helo sir, i just love the way fuji xt100 and i need for vlogging dan photo. but, my friend telling better i choose canon m50 bcz the quality of video more better than xt100. im confused 😔 may you can give me an advice?
@@jeffreysaputra I agree with your friend, particularly if you're shooting in 4K.
Would you recommend this one over the canon g7x mark II?
I would.
Do you recommend the xt100, the gx85, or the em10 iii? Thank you so much!
I can recommend them all, depending on your needs and preferences.
Maarten Heilbron mostly for travel and street photography. I intend to shoot jpeg 99% of the time. Can you please help me make a decision?
@@ItsawlaysZara Although it might depend on whose colour rendition you prefer, I would go with the X-T100, primarily for the film simulations, which really simplify the creation of good JPEG images with a variety of colour models.
XT100 , A6000 or XT10? What should i get for street photography?
I'd consider the Fujifilm X-E3 ruclips.net/video/cv0JUtt6g5E/видео.html
Does it still have focus peaking for help in using vintage manual lenses?
I believe it does (as well as expanded focus) but I don't have a vintage manual lens to test.
In term of picture quality which one is better nikon d3400 vs Fujifilm xt100
The sensors for these will provide equivalent results. In terms of picture quality, the lens will make a larger difference.
@@MaartenHeilbron thank you
Hello sir, i have come across ur review videos n in my opinion ur a awesome photographer, so sir my Question is do u provide any worshop where beginner like me can learn abouy photography??? Hope u will reply sir😊😊
Thanks, I appreciate the kind words. No workshops at the moment, occasionally I do one on video production sponsored by Sony in Toronto.
Maarten Heilbron Thank u sir
@@kaustavkb Always happy to help.
I can’t choose on what to buy :/ Is it the X-T100, X-T3 or the X100F? Help :
Between those three models, I would not hesitate to take the X-T3, a most excellent camera.
i found this XT100 good for beginner camera
If you found it, it's a good beginner camera. Even if you have to pay for it, still good - X-T20 is better.
Hi! I am having problem choosing between xt100 and canon m50, I hope you can help me to decide😊
As I have no idea what your needs are, I can't really help. Both are good quality cameras with a lot of versatility. Choose based on your wallet, your hand and your heart.
Which do you recommend for vlogging?
I think the M50 would be more suitable.
Maarten Heilbron
Thank you😊
