    Nice opening :)
    I was deliberating between the two and after waiting 2 weeks for the silver to come, and although I like the rangefinder styling, I decided to go with the S10 based on feedback that the E4 heats up quite soon. Of course, IBIS on the S10 is nice for handheld footage.

    • @AceNoguera
      @AceNoguera  3 года назад +1

      Ill be testing the over heating issue this weekend. Curious on how itll hold up! IBIS is definitely nice but i can get around it if need be. Overall just need to use it a bit more before i finally decide haha. I really do love the form factor of the xe4 though.

    Great video. I agree with a lot of your comments when comparing it to the XS 10. Given the XE 4 lacks IBIS, I don’t get why Fuji wouldn’t offer the 18-55 as a kit option. That would make a nice video setup.

    • @AceNoguera
      @AceNoguera  3 года назад

      glad you enjoyed the video. I think they didnt because they wanted to keep the form factor small and market their new pancake lens. Which seems to be working pretty since a lot of those bundles are sold out. Stay tuned for next week's video, im going to run it through its paces with video and see how it holds up!

  • @williamaungleyraud

    There are adapters you can insert in the hot shoe mount to move the shoe mount to the side of the camera so you can add your mic on the side and have the flip-up screen unobstructed. You need to choose if you rather have a thumb grip adapter, a side shoe mount adapter, or an evf eyecup adapter.

    I’ve been interested in all three cameras, given you have the xs10, xe4 and xt4 despite the ibis and 8 bit how different is the quality and the autofocus from each body if there is that significant of a difference..? Thanks for the vid!

    • @AceNoguera
      @AceNoguera  3 года назад +1

      The quality from what i can tell is the same, XE4 allows you to select how many mbs just like on the xs10 and xt4, obviously its just in 8 bit though. I havent tested the AF just yet but i bet you its the same. Ill be taking it out this weekend for a vlog to see how it holds up. Stay tuned for that video!

    • @williamaungleyraud
      @williamaungleyraud 3 года назад +2

      I think the difference is negligible, the X-S10 and X-E4 having the latest slightly improved autofocus algorithm, but sooner or later the X-T4 should be getting a firmware update for its AF, or they'll be pissing way too many X-T4 owners. The thing with Fuji is how long they take to launch firmware updates once a camera is out of their pipeline, because right now their focus is definitely the X-S10 and more yet the X-E4. And on the back-end, they are working on the 2022 X-H2 and perhaps an X-T5. So only time can tell when the X-T4 will receive meaningful updates.

I don't fully like how Fuji skimped in some pretty important buttons in order to make this camera clean and modern. And the main reason I like Fuji cameras are the manual dials and tactile feel, so I think the X-E4 isn't for me. But I totally agree with you on the shutter button of the X-E4 over the X-S10. 😎👍

      @@AceNoguera my main concern with both the X-E4 and the X-S10 is battery life and perhaps overheating. The X-T4 battery performs really well at expense of weight and bulk, but it's what I currently use. However I wonder how many batteries the X-E4 chews through in one full day of vlogging and how much cool off time it takes to run another clip in 4k. I guess I'll find out in your next video 😎👍👍

    How do you find the XE4 EVF, especially since the resolution is extremely low...this is my main concern from buying this but I absolutely love the design and simplicity.
    Also how bad it is to use the thumb stick with it being so low now.

    • @AceNoguera
      @AceNoguera  3 года назад +2

      The EVF is definitely an adjustment, coming from the XT4 haha. I mean if you know that going into it its not that bad though. But between the low res and much smaller in general evf its not very useful. I wouldnt recommend it if you plan to mainly be using the EVF. As far as the joystick goes i felt it was in a reasonably comfortable spot. It is way lower than the older one but you dont really notice in real world use. I have some what small hands though so if you have big hands it may work in your favor as it wont be so close to your face.

  • @williamaungleyraud
    @williamaungleyraud 3 года назад +1

    I'm assuming you're filming this video with the X-T4 in perhaps face/eye auto detect/ autofocus turned on. Try using the focus range limiter instead and you should get much smoother autofocus and no focus jumps.
    Also, I'd adjust the focus speed and sensitivity settings for these talking head-shots because the focus transition is on the slow side, so it takes time to laser that focus on your intended subject.
    Try it out, I believe you can get a more pleasing video experience :)

      @@siddhantmogaveera Personally i would go with the XE4 for a couple of reasons. One of them being its a newer camera so firmware updates and support going forward will be much longer than on the xt30. Fujifilm is really good at bringing some great new features to their cameras in firmware updates so that would be pretty important to me. Helps future proof the camera much longer.
      The other is the screen on the XE4 is higher res which makes a pretty big difference as well. You also get a couple more color profiles which are fun.
