Thanks for this video. I love my Fujis but the autofocus has always been weak and is now really poor. I really like the constructive approach you’ve taken. Let’s hope Fuji FINALLY listens to
@@SamTaylors Thanks for the comment ,waiting for Nov firmware for testing.
Whats the difference?
@@momoma92sss28 the older version cold shoe in the way of the cameras hotshoe.so mounting a flash or anything else is a problem
oh yeah that's why I stuck with my xt4! Even compared to the xh2 I much prefer my older camera! Thanks for this comparison, and best wishes from Uruguay!
What pro-mist filter?
Link please.
@@scorpionstingz4983 it’s the K&F 1/8 strength black diffusion filter.
@@MoTecZA What mm for this lens? Thanks!
@@scorpionstingz4983the 90 f2 has a 67mm thread,however i have a 77mm that i used with a step up ring, Get one the size of your largest Lense thread and then you dont need to buy more than one filter.
What lens did you use for the samples?
Hi ,all the video and majority of the images were with the Tamron 28 75 G2 .
edvard sent me here. It breaks my heart that their recent cameras are getting crippled, specially the X-20 since I want to buy one for the open gate.
@@lionheart4424 its still a great Camera,despite the current autofocus issues if you can work around it while hopefully they sorting it out or atleast bringing their video autofocus back in line with the latest XT4 firmware.
@@MoTecZA Did you ever consider downgrading the firmware? It's pretty straightforward
@@JakeChambersOyI’m actually doing some research and I might consider if fuji doesn’t not respond to my communication with them regarding these issues.
Excellent insights bro. Love my XS20 as my A cam. The film simulations are very nice. Gave a thuumbs up👍
Thank you!
@@MoTecZA you're welcome cheers🥂
did you write "lense" in the title on purpose?
Hey Man ,i did not lol i keep making that mistake over and over.
I have x-t3 and wondering if x-s20 has better image, aince x-t3 has really similar image to x-t4
@@reljapetrovicmusic its only with F Log 2 in video with xs20 that you will gain in image quality with dynamic range you will also gain
Hi, maybe I missed it but which tracking mode was used? Wide/Tracking mode or zone? Was the eye detection function active? Do your lenses have the latest firmware?
Hi ,Eye detection with a focus point centre on both.
Fuji has screwed their customers. I noticed a huge increase in newer Fuji's for sale on MPB and eBay. They need to fire their firmware engineers and hire someone who knows what their doing.. I've cancelled my X100VI, pre-order. People are downgrading their firmware with a hack on their x_h2s.
Similar thing happening our side,i really hope they Fix this .
How was autofocus in photography for 3.0? What modes do you use Af-S/Af-C? Thanks and keep up the great videos!
@@garends225 hey Bud ,Autofocus was alot better on 3.0 ,i had it with me the weekend again and with my usual setting for sports had a lot of misses,i always use continuous
@@MoTecZAthanks. Do you mean 2.01? That’s the previous version without Reala Ace. What setting do you use for sports?
@@garends225 sorry yes i mean the version prior to reala ace ,i use single point and i manualy move my box around.
I love how relevant this camera is. I bought it to get into fujifilm and now I am getting rid of my Sony A7 II haha, I still use my Sony A7R IIIA for work but I prefer the fujifilm x-t2 all day.
And it has 4k 30 with F log💯😊
Is it worth getting the X-T5 and avoid updating it right out of the box? 1.) I really don't need Reala Ace. 2.) I would only use video like 8% of the time.
@@user-nq7gr6mj6q i have not tried the xt5 yet ,generally for images i never experienced issues with fuji bodies iv used.depending with what firmware its being shipped currently ,if you doing mostly photo you shouldnt have any issues ,i would also strongly consider the XT4 used if you can find one,they seem to hold value ,it has ibis ,better noise control aswell and put other bucks into lenses.
I've bought XT-5 before 1 year ago as my first enthusiast/entry level pro camera, had amazing experience with it, everything worked flawlessly, even the next 2-3 updates without an issue. I've encountered AF problems with v3.01. update. Other than that I couldn't be happier with the camera
@@dkotris I have a similar experience: Have used 12 different versions of X mount cameras over the past five years. Just bought an X-T5 with V4 firmware and consistently have AF issues on photos when using the Zone AF mode. Extremely disappointing.
bought this used in 6'2024. best purchase ever especially if you're just interested in documenting your life. i even vlog on it!
hi, i'm looking to buy my first camera! i cant decide whether to buy the xt2 or the xt3. my budget is within $1000 including the lens, but i CAN stretch it a bit if the xt3 is much better. i take more photos than videos but sometimes i do take videos. what do you think i should get?
@@PotatoBreadYum peace, family. unsure if you're asking me or @pototoebreadyum however, with your intentions i'd go for the xt2 paired with a fujinon XF lens especially, if you desire to capture photos mostly. videos are also still very manageable if you're making stills. the biggest advantage the X-T3 has over the X-T2 (in my opinion) is it's AF-C tracking + ability to focus in low-light. the X-T2 will have a harder time tracking subjects + will hunt a bit more in lowlight. it has 4k 30FPS + can shoot in FLOG. It's honestly amazing for it's prince. now, if you think you'll go the video route more in the future then, do the X-T3 as it posses more video capabilities. so, fuji xt2 if you plan to stick with mostly photos + occasionally record videos/stills, XT3 if you plan to master videography + potentially lean toward professional video making like short films, vlogging + xt4 for weddings, music videos, etc. ☆。*。☆。
@@gemineyesmp4 thank you! i think i'll go for the xt2.
will color and photo quality have some significant upgrades since it has a xtrans 5 processor.. but with the xtrans4 sensor?
Not much difference if any between xt4 and xs20 other than newer film sims on xs20
can you let me know how single AF for photography with this FW?
Hi single and continuous for photography I don’t have any issues , it’s. Mostly video eye tracking
Apparently incorporating artificial intelligence into Fuji cameras messed up autofocus.
Affects all cameras - xs20, xt5, xh2, xh2s. Everyone is saying the same thing about the firmware its crippled the camera's vido AF
Same experience with the latest firmware continous autofocus is just jump around / very unpredictable with busy background 😮
Honestly after some more testing i have been doing now does not even have to be a busy background to confuse it ,the xt4 is way more stable ,new upload coming soon with diverse settings on both.
@@MoTecZAthanks for the testing! You are the only one covering this on the X-S20 right now
@@garends225 busy with some more test , should post results this week
@@MoTecZAlooking forward to it! I reverted my firmware. Bummer because I love the x-s20 and Reala Ace
The X-T4 @ 90mm F2 killing the XS20 @ 90mm F2.8 is outrageous. Can they just effing revert their autofocus software to the old status quo?
@@jandzoe9249 if they don’t do something Soon I’ll probably downgrade firmware , I’m waiting on response From Fuji South Africa I have sent through initial testing.
Good video
what about the overheating issue?
Yes, you will. Oh, you already do regret it 🤣
@@-_ch40s_ i honestly only miss prores internal and the better grip
When I see another Fuji AF bashing Video, I like first before I watch. 😂
@@apamacam4838 i really hope Fuji can sort out this issue or atleast allow us to revert to older software
I also have an XT4 (primary camera) and an XS20 (as a second camera) + DJI OSMO POCKET 3 for shooting in motion due to excellent stabilization + 4K 120fps / 4K 60fps / standard mode - 10 bit / LOG / HLG
Its a fantastic combo ,the xt4 also now has the better video autofocus being the better main body.😀
We Fuji users should unite and crowdfund to raise money to fire Fuji engineers and hire Sony engineers, or even Nikon's!!!
I fully agree!!
WTF are doing Fuji engineers??? Fire them all!!! I have XS20 too, and after every firmware is getting worse... thanks for the vid!!!
I will not be updating my X-S20. I didn't do the last 2 updates on my X-S20. Especially after the touch to track broke the AF on my X-H2s.
I should have done the same ,i was really looking forward tp Reala ace sim
@@MoTecZA yeah. There were so many people complaining about it I would have hoped no one else would update. Unless of course they don't care about AF.
@@TwoTimesRmedia My thoughts were the xs20 has the older sensor .
@@MoTecZA I saw people thinking that would matter. Doesn't seem to be based on much but, assumptions.
@@TwoTimesRmedia i have sent the video through to Fujifilm South Africa
The way Fuji racks AF is ugly even on FW versions that "work". There's always that horrible jerky stepping action that makes the footage tool awful IMO. It can clearly be seen here even on the X-T4 footage.
Atleast one can tweeak the setting to rack slower or more naturally with the linear lenses ,other lenses almost impossible eg 35 f2
Fujirumors have been deleting comments criticising autofocus for years. The guy who runs the site, Fujifilm head of PR marketing, Patrik, can no longer hide and is crapping his pants!
That is really sad to see. I moved from the XT4 to the XH2S for gains in AF performance, I owned the XS20 for a short period as well. Currently testing 1.03 on one of my XH2S's, looks like I will be putting both my units back to 1.03 eventually. The Fuji mask has well and truly fallen, revealing the grand level of gross incompetence and disarray at Fuji HQ. Heads should be rolling...
But complete hackers like that guy who runs the fujirumors site, who is also the head of product design at fujifilm, don't even know what autofocus is. They need to be educated but their eyes and ears are closed. They reckon a film sim recipe will fix all our AF problems 😢
Thanks for this. Other TH-camrs have talked about this issue too. Fuji really need to get this sorted. They are years behind Sony on this.
Disagree. Fuji need to release MORE FILM SIMS and ban autofocus. Autofocus and photography in general is for morons. We want film sims and silver/chrome camera bodies!
@@andyp5693 a ultra minority view, extremely strongly held. Congrats!
Sony troll? They are years behind Canon and Nikon too.
Why not sending your complains to Fujifilm by email?
Why don’t they send out their software for testing before releasing to us? I honestly don’t see how they cannot know about these issues. How did they possibly even test this before sending us these updates , it’s unacceptable in my opinion comparing to earlier versions , this is an internal issue they need to sort out.they should get a bunch of testers who actually use their cameras in the field before releasing major updates like this.
@@MoTecZA According to Fujifilm, they are not aware of these issues and they assume that it would have been resolved with the latest firmware.
They should start by Looking at the Final Firmware for autofocus of the xt4 and the initial firmware of the the newer chips which was stable and predictable and build from their , they Should forget about birds trains and plains for now and Fix the lack of predictability in their continuous autofocus modes , their Continuous Autofocus is lacking in Relaxed decision making and jumps on the first thing in hopes that it’s correct and then jumps again always second guessing its decisions.
You are coming too close to the minimum focus distance of the lens for the xs20. That’s not apples to apples
I miss the old autofocus on Fuji X-S20. Now it hunts a lot, even for still photography. I realized this when I was on a portrait session wedding where my client stand stills, and it can't focus on the subject at all. Sometimes when I was sure that the autofocus was already correct, but when I check back home on my PC, it focus elsewhere like the trees in the background or tall building. I was furious when I found this. It seems they use contrast detect autofocus rather than phase detect autofocus. Totally dissappointing for me
Duidelik my broer , duidelik
I noticed the same but didn't thought of the update as the cause. This is such a shame
This is exactly my findings on my XT5 and XH2, pulsing and hunting, absolutely unusable! with the current firmware!! My XT3 is has WAY better video autofocus with the same settings and lenses.
@@finken2007q agreed , i might just downgrade my firmware and post my findings. The XT4 and T3 algorithm was way more stable in continuous Tracking ,they should start at the bottom again and work their way up with some proper beta testers on hand.
@@MoTecZA I downgraded and have tried 1.11, 1.20, and 2.01. All are better than 3.00
Soooo grateful to have kept my xt4's for so long. The general autofocus isn't as great as the other brands but still good. Fuji needs to get this right. By the way, that 90mm f2 looked really good!
Thanks for the comment, Xt4 will be relevant for a very long time still.
I use xt4 for video in manual focus, but it can do the typical sitcom closeup fine in AF, as long as the entire face is visible, and movements are of natural speed, and at least one eye remains visible at all times. If the shot is longer the face may be too small for its AF. If the shot is shorter, it loses the eyes when it cannot see the full face. In other words, it does interview or drama fine in AF but a Sony can handle any shot, fast changes in face size, very small face, very large face, rotations of face, invisible eyes, etc.
My X-T5 is now a paper weight for any moving (even slow) subjects. Of course, no response from Fujifilm. Time to switch brands. I was (and maybe now) a Nikon shooter. Nikon, Sony and Canon seem more in touch with their user base, which almost seems funny to say.
I sold my X-T5 to MPB because of these issues. I really loved the camera otherwise, but I was missing focus on even still subjects regularly.
Thought of selling my Fuji gear aswell ,however ill be keeping for further testing and reporting on progress.
@@DennisK47 Has the used value of an X-T5 gone down?
@@markbusinsky6900 Ironically it's mostly gone up due to hype for things like the X100 series.
Lead fanboy Patrick from fujirumors has all the answers. Apparently the next 3yrs of FW updates for all fuji cameras are going to focus on Film Sims. Because he told Fujifilm that's what users want. He only has orgasms when fuji release a new film sim or update on of their existing ones. So he has a need
In b4 Fuji fanboys yells at you for not reading the manual or learning your camera
If Nothing Good comes from this video atleast we brought in some fuji legends into the comment section😃 and great supporting comments from all thus far.
Fuji Fanboy: Use "Nostalgic Positive Bullocks" sim and your AF problems go away Photographer: Tried that, didn't change anything Fuji Fanboy: Use my voodoo magic recipe. Set clarity and sharpening to +5. Then go back to the file and sharpen it again +5. And do this 600 times Photographer: I'm switching to Sony
Fuji formware developing is just a joke. I know not a single other camera company that does software things as bad.
Thank you for making this video. We need more voices heard on this matter. Fujifilm's silence on the matter is so frustrating.. We are buying these cameras with our own hard earned money and we expect them to work up to a certain level.. Fuji's autofocus for video is just unusable at the moment...
So True , lets hope they bring back true Kaizan
@@MoTecZA we can only hope.. Honestly I don't think they will. Best case scenario they can re release versions before the "Ai" implementations. At least the camera was doing a decent job with AF.
thank you, very good comparison between the 4th and 5th generation. i have the x-t5 and my 35 1.4 performs also worse after the update. its a shame, i love fuji, have this system since 2019. but quite upset now
@@martinphilipps8678 I know the feeling bro, I felt like letting go of my fuji system , however I do enjoy using my canon FD glass on both Fuji and Sony, it’s so disappointing to see that their is actually no real improvement for video in the newer Chips ; to me right know it seems as it’s only the Graphical displays of the new chip looks better and at first glance seems as if it’s doing better however in reality it’s on par with the older generation fuji only in video , in photo I think the the new gen is slightly better.
I feel that two firmware updates ago were the best results I got from my XT5, which has steadily got more problems now!
Agreed my xh2s on around 5 was good enough for my needs.
Same for me. V2.10 was the least troublesome so far.
Been using Zeiss manual lenses hoping for a newer better one Peking AF one more chance for Fuji
Yip the peaking in daylight is useless.
Never update Fuji firmware before someone else tested it
Been wanting reala ace for a while ,my gut told me dont do it and still went ahead.
@@MoTecZA reala ace available in RAW converters without new firmware
Stupid Fuji is sending itself out of contest with the rest
I honestly dont think they testing properly ,i mean the testers should be able to see that the eye tracking is looking for eyes or finding eyes in random places.
