Thoroughly enjoyable informative review . I’m looking to use XT3 as a stills camera , the review was heavily biased towards the video side of the camera but let me see what can be done with a bit of work and imagination. I want to shoot mostly landscapes which is why I want to move on from my Canon DSLR . Mentally I had settled on the X H2, but I watched a review on this which compared it to an XT5 which was very favourable for both cameras and at the end the reviewer said that the XT3 was still a great (but cheaper camera) . I’m thinking that if I get a good used camera and a decent lens I can always trade up , keeping the lens . Effectively renting an XT3 . Hopefully it’ll work out !!
Great vid. I appreciate that you shared the work to demonstrate the camera's features. Searching online for cameras can be a grind, just the images, video, and presentation were enjoyable, and I can see why you love the camera.
Thanks for a super presentation, was thinking of getting the xt5 but I think the xt3 will give me what I need and as I can pick it up for half the price in as new condition i think that’s the way to go for me. Thanks.
Wonderful video man! I recently got an xt3 myself as an upgrade to my A7s mark 1 haha. Best camera I've had so far. One question, Did your Fuji xt3 develop any dead or stuck pixels during the video when shooting F log? I'm in the process of returning mine back because there are several white pixels on the image and I can't deal with it. They are small but I've never encountered that on any other camera.
Hi, Im looking to start out in videography, I can afford to buy a XT4 body new and a second hand lens 18-55mm. Or I could buy a used XT3 and used lens 18-55mm. Should I rather spend more to get the XT4 or a gimbal for the XT3
I’m wondering how are you able to get low light footage with very little noise? I have the same camera and even with f1.4 I keep getting noise in the midtones/ shadows. The highlights and very dark shadows are OK, but everything else is noisy. Sometimes I can crush the shadows a little bit, but a lot of times I can’t. I know how to do it when I’m in control of lightning, but in situations like a concert or in a situation like your video of the dancer, I get a lot of noise. Do you remove it in post? Does filming in 10 bits make a difference regarding the ability to remove the noise. If you could give me an advice or do video about it in the future, I would be very grateful. Even at ISO 6400 there is way too much noise. My old 5dmk3 is much better. Yes, it is a full frame, but it’s also a very old camera. I was expecting almost a decade of development to be enough to make up for the smaller sensor.
I had to de-noise the dancer footage. We shot during winter and it got quite dark. I also used a speed booster quite a lot which probably helped keep the ISO down. I rarely went up to ISO 6400
Dude that was a pleasure to watch your video, such a nice style. Can you please provide equipment you have or you would buy to cage the fuji xt-3? I’m planing to shoot handheld but amount of different part in caging just overwhelms me :D what would you buy for fuji xt-3 today? (Grips, monitor etc)
Glad you enjoyed the video! I had the old small rig cage. Personally I would recommend a cage, dovetail and either a small monitor or evf so that you can comfortably use the xt3 on a counter weighted shoulder rig as this will help the rolling shutter and make the handheld much better. Wouldn't worry about an external recorder since I mostly used the internal codec even when I did have the shogun
What a humble man!

Great review, thank you. The footage shown in here is stunning.
Such a thorough review!

Glad you found the video helpful, it's a solid camera and I'm still using it
What lens are you referring to that does well with auto face focus? great video!
Just the 50mm F2, the Fuji X mount version
What a great video my friend. Loved the footage.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video!

I haven't got any stuck pixels on my xt3 but I did get a pretty nasty red stuck pixel on my a7s thankfully only in photos
mine came with a dead pixel🥲 i just returned it though and i’m in the process of getting a completely new one sent to me:)
@@liamivarsson how to check it before I buy this camera (used) 😢 I even didn't know about dead pixel
Thanks for review!!

10:58 Was this video shot with the fuji X-t3? 😮

nice footage! what lenses do you use?
Most footage was shot using the Fuji 50mm F2 but I also used a sigma 24-105 f4, rokinin 85 and 35
