The most interesting thing vloggers should take note of from this video is that he tried to show us a dog on the street but Fuji refused to focus on it.
The thing with the 3D pop is the fall off of the focus area and non-focus area. And how smooth is this transition. And another thing is the imperfection on the corners. This makes the image lean to the center and makes it "more real". Because when we look to something the rest we even don't pay attention to them. The imperfection of the corners helps to stay focused on certain parts of the frame. That's why "3D pop" lens looks more natural, the fall off is more natural and the imperfections from the corner make the image different from center to corner. Minimizing the 2D look. Of course, the intention of video, and photography doesn't need to replicate reality, and makes this type of art. Is an expression, not a replication. So 3D pop can be more pleasant, but when this look has that purpose. If we need a total visualization of the frame, just use a normal sharp and clean lens. The problem will be the look. The separation in these lenses are weird, looks 2D or green screen, because the image has the same behavior from center to corner.
Everyone: 3D pop isn't a thing, Kasey. It doesn't exist. Kasey (exhales after taking a drag off a carrot that he's pretending is a cigarette): Listen, kid. I know what I saw.
Not everyone. It is a combination of lens, aperture, distance to subject, distance to background, the background. Some lenses have a specific way of rendering the in focus subject and transition to out of focus background in such a way you see your subject pop. Most modern lenses render such a way that the transition is smoother, it is flatter. Of course it is all 2d, but the way our brain translates the image, one has pop and the other is flat. But again, like good bokeh vs bad bokeh, the background is important to show the best and worst of a lens.
3D pop is not something we pay much attention to, so we rarely or never notice it. I recently watched a video comparing the Viltrox 20mm vs the Zeiss Loxia 21mm. The TH-camr who did the comparison was mostly focused on whether the 10x price difference was worth it, but his examples were great, because he had both lenses and shot the identical scene under identical conditions, the 3D pop was more than obvious with the Zeiss Loxia 21mm. But again, to emphasize, it was so obvious because the examples were placed side by side, if I hadn't seen what the Loxia shot looked like, the second shot would have been fine with me. (And now I am in love with Loxia lenses, it's a shame I'll never be able to afford them.)
I was disappointed when I bought my xs10 secondhand and it came with the old 23mm f1.4. It didn't have the sharpness that my brothers ricoh gr had. But, used it for shits and giggles on a recent trip to Sevilla and man, it's got so much character, the 3d pop is real! I'm a believer! I used the 16:9 crop, since the 23 is a tad too wide for my taste, and I was blown away
The original 18-55mm kit is one the best kits ever and one of my favorite lens. You can see at 13:54 it even has better color than the new kit lens. I was lucky and probably got one of the last new in box 18-55mm sold. I will never let this one go.
Ultimate 3D pop test, ZEISS 32mm 1.8 vs Fuji 35mm 1.4 🙏 The cinema would be ours. Also if you can get the chance to use the Fuji 90mm F2 it is definitely is legendary!
This video just confirmed my bias on the new fujifim lens. Thanks for doing the work to show the differences between them. 3D pop is real shun the no believers shun.....
I always use the 18-55mm for video. Shot an entire music video with it but when doing portrait photography, it’s the 35mm 1.4, 56mm 1.2, 90mm 2, and very rarely it’s the 14mm.
Your outfit and looks remember me of Gordon Freeman from Half Life (this is a compliment btw). Go and fight some aliens with a Canon Cripple Hammer or something.
I’ve been using the 16 1.4 35 1.4 and 56 1.2 for years now pretty much since they dropped and will never give them up. I actually really like the 15-45mm too.
Hot take, I prefer the 33. It might not be poppin', but it's not without character. Get all the LM and WR goodness without being totally devoid of soul. Sometimes I swear I even get a bit of a swirl with the right background and distance to subject. The least clinical of the modern Fuji primes, followed by the 56, and then the 18 that's so good it's almost bad.
You have a video saying that Viltrox 56mm 1.4 is the greatest lens ever - is it still true or the 56mm 1.2 is meaningfully better and worth the cost difference?
Another great video man The 35 f1.4 is still the GOAT for Fuji pop. Regarding the 90mm it's an incredibly sharp and fast lens (owned it for phoDOGraphy for a while, but yeah, too punched in to be a genuinely useful daily lens) Agreed with the Viltrox 56 assessment I've just sold mine for an OG Fuji 56mm f1.2 and that DEFINITELY has the pop and looks a LOT nicer. I know you're not a big photography man I've I've recently had the Sony RX1R, that thing has the most popular I've had from some of my images to date... Still sold it for the Leica Q which is better and every way!
Really regret selling my X-H1 and 18-55. Been eyeing an old X-T1 to get back into the fuji world. I only use center point focus and recompose so the old tech doesn’t bother me.
Dude what the hell did you do?!? Why is this image so god damn good, skin tones, mood, color saturation, everything is so fucking good!!!! I don't want a fuji, i hate fuji, stop doing this to me!!! Edit: the mk1 version of the kit lens, not the viltrox ffs!!!
@@rpmusick so basically nobody knows how to use fuji? That's a problem in itself since all these reviewers get awesome results with sony/canon/panasonic. But if I am fair about this I think that's my favorite look so far if i don't count giant cinema cameras like the c70.
@@AI3Dorinte yeah I would argue that people don't know how to use their cameras and that fuji settings can be counter intuitive, it took me at least 2 years to figure out what different settings do to the image and to understand what settings I actually want to use
Wow, the Viltrox 56mm was the only lens I saw 3D-Pop, even before you said that it doesn't LOL I think it's time to overthink the ED-glass = 3D-Pop-Killer equation
I have the cinema version for micro four loser, love that lens. 3D pop gets killed by in-camera lens corrections, that's why native lenses are so boring now. He'll figure it out one day.🤫
Thank you for the goodness almost left fuj then ... yeahhh ... I hear you from Singapore. I'm in the fuj fo 10 y... the 16f1.4 and the 56f1.2( Original) are POP lenses ... that said you didn't think of the 90 f2 it has something to... I own 16-55, 50-140, 23fe,35f2, 10-24, just got the tamron 17-70f2.8 to replace my broken 16-55.... i have to work lol... nice but the 16-55 original had this prime thing pop the tamron don't... so clinical sharp, no soul but does the job. Thank you again, your latest video did help me give a second chance to fuj and i will get this damn 35f1.4 I'm stopping my self for years but now you did it !!! live long and prosper.
The AF pulsing on the Viltrox was quite noticeable as you moved further away from the camera. I love the Fujifilm look and intend to get the XS-20 when I'm able to.
Mr. Conspiracy dude, you’re absolutely correct about it, 3D pop is a thing and after research about it I came to the conclusion that less glass elements and right amount of vignetting give you some of that pop, I also own the 16 1.4 fuj, it’s incredible but another 3D king is the Loxia 50 f2
oh man, no one explained better the feeling that i have looking at pictures, the background separation of the subject that i see in pictures taken with my old canon ef 50 mm f1.4 USM on the 6D is not present in my newer fuji xt30II even with the magical xf 35 f1.4 only the 56 1.2 go somewhere near, but it is not comparable, picture taken with ef 50 mm are tridimensional the other ones are a tridimensional subject with a flat glued background
I own the newer 23 & 33 1.4 they both show Pop. Yes while it’s a more clinical render but it does have 3d pop also would like to add the 50mm f2 for that beautiful micro contrast While the older lenses do render beautifully (I have the 35mm 1.4), however for my line of work it requires the hire detail that the 40mp resolves.
I sold my 23 and 35mm to buy red badge zooms, its always niggled me and now I definitely want them back! ( kept the 56mm 1.2 though thank goodness... )
I was looking forward to this video, great picture despite the winter haze. I would like to see what you think of the 60mm f2.4, it's a great lens with vintage character. Pop? Maybe. The autofocus may be objectively too slow, but it's half the weight of the 56mm. I agree on the 33 vs 35: I switched and I can only see positives. OK apart from the bokeh being busier on the 35. Keen to try the 50mm f2, 9 elements; I do believe the 90mm may pop because of the background compression and how sharp it is, but it's heavy to lug around. Thank you!
I own 16f1.4 & 56f1.2. The colors are great. I could live with these two forever. I also owned and sold 18f2 and 35f1.4, the colors are not as good as 16 and 56. 80f2.8 Macro also has very good color, but the pictures are too sharp for my taste, and the focal length is not my favorite.
The 18-55 is a great little lens. It would be a fullframe equivalent of 28-84mm. The new 16-50 would be closer to what a normal ff zoom lens would be which is 24-70 except in this case the fuji is 24-75mm. The lack of Ois sucks for people without ibis.
I don’t understand which kit lens you are saying is better. You said the new one having 3 ED elements was a deal breaker. Is that good or bad?!? Or are you saying threee-d elements?
Be good is you used some stills as well to show the differences. Most ppl dont vlog. Weight is a bigger concern than hunting unless youre shooting sports or yourself as a distance.
Hi, thanks for the video! I have the Fuji 16mm f1.4, did you try its macro capability? It's incredible how close you can focus. I also use the Zeiss Touit 32mm 1.6, it has a 3D pop that's unique to Fuji lenses. Greetings from Argentina!
For sure the viltrox has an old firmware no "optimized" for xh2s.(there was a fw that said exactly that - optimized for xh2s,xt5 etc ... wich "optimization" also shouldn't exist , also a thing that proves fuji is messing too much with their parameters on af system)
Thank you for this Video. Love your Channel 😊. Which stabilized lens gives you the most stable footage in the fuji system? 18-55 f2.8-4 vs. 10-24 f4 vs. 16-80 f4? Thank you.
I just picked up the Fuj 60mm 2.4 macro for product photography and I'm loving the results with my hobo skills. I like the look better than the 80mm macro but, again, hobo.
Last part of the vid had pulsating in the back especially when moving your hands🥺 35mm looks great how about a TT artisan 17mm 1.4 or perhaps 27mm 1.4 test for a 3d pop(i understand they manual lenses but im using a lidar with it) would like to compare 😊
Just out of curiosity, i would love to hear your take on the sirui nightwalkers, eventho they lack auto focus. maybe then you could compare them to the sniper ones later, since they have af. Would be pretty interesting to watch
I LOVE my XF56 T1.2, sweet lens. Have you ever tried any Canon FD lenses? I know they're all manual focus. But, I've used a few and seem to like them. I have the FD135mm f3.5 and the 28mm f2.8. I'd love to get something wider like the 17mm or even a 24mm but the prices for them are much higher. Well, have a great weekend!
I swear to God if I get remarried, I want your soft pad synth track playing in the background while we recite the vows. Edit: and I would insist that my bride and I do that patented strained chuckle before saying "I do."
What conclusions would you come up with if you started with specs for a vlogging lens where a certain combination of focal length and aperture is desired? For real life use, it might be different specs for different settings: indoor or outdoor, close up or landscapes, objects in motion or sitting still. The choice of a lens will greatly vary between the settings and use. But my point is, what would to come up with if you started on paper with lens specs and scenarios, and then moved to lens quality? You can “design” several lenses with a range in focal lengths and apertures. Then, test for image stability and lens quality. And finally, select a body for the desired features and ease of use. Is this too nerdy?
3d pop is all caused by using simple double gauss lens design. If the design is complex a.k.a modern lens, don't hope anything on it. You can google double gauss design and will find Zeiss lenses are pretty much using it
Kasey, are you doing a lot of grading to the vlog videos here? Or is this just what you get if you shoot f-log(1) or something? I think they look really good - simple, clean, realistic - and would like to achieve that look, but I don't have experience shooting let alone grading video. I'm wondering if just "set it to audio and choose f-log" gets me enough of the way there, or do I have to get DaVinci and all that other stuff to achieve what you have here and pull out the 3-d pop.
If you need wide Get the sigma 10-18 If you need a wide angle photo lense. Nothing beats 18mm 1.4lm wr If you need a 50mm get the 33mm 1.4lm wr If you need 85mm get the sigma 56mm 1.4. If you need a standard zoom get the new fuji 16 55 2.8 lm wr ii Don't get old lenses and then compare for sharpness with other systems or complain about af while using old lenses.. Weather resistance for people that actually use their cameras other than in thier lounge is huge. 18mm 1.4lm wr is a legendary lense..

opinion on the viltrox 23mm f1.4?
I love this guy .. he motivates me to buy fujifilm but also demoralise me at the same time.. 😂😂😂😂
fuji looks so good on you
Fuji is made for him. The look is awesome.
The most interesting thing vloggers should take note of from this video is that he tried to show us a dog on the street but Fuji refused to focus on it.
Fuji focuses not on what we want, but what we need to see. And we're grateful
Who cares when you got pop!
The fuji images are so cinematic!
first video of this dude and I already love him!
As time passes and microcontrast crawls into our eyes, we all become more like the Angry Photographer.
Yikes.. I’ll grant he knows his glass but as for the rest of the known universe.. not so much.
Haha, yes.
The Rainy filter looked magical!! You have invented a new filter!!!
Wow! This video is absolutely stunning! The quality and color are top-notch. Fantastic job by you and Fujifilm!

It's all about lower element count in lenses, and no or only one aspherical element. The older X100 lens like on the T or F also pops.

Fujifilm 23 F2
Fuji 35 1.4
Viltrox 75 1.2
I own 16f1.4 & 56f1.2. The colors are great. I could live with these two forever. I also owned and sold 18f2 and 35f1.4, the colors are not as good as 16 and 56. 80f2.8 Macro also has very good color, but the pictures are too sharp for my taste, and the focal length is not my favorite.
The 18-55 is a great little lens. It would be a fullframe equivalent of 28-84mm.
The new 16-50 would be closer to what a normal ff zoom lens would be which is 24-70 except in this case the fuji is 24-75mm. The lack of Ois sucks for people without ibis.
I don’t understand which kit lens you are saying is better. You said the new one having 3 ED elements was a deal breaker. Is that good or bad?!? Or are you saying threee-d elements?
35/1.4 is my favorite lens of all time. thank you for validating.
What do you think about the fuj 50mm T1.0? Not for nature but for one of your portrait scenes?
Is he saying Tony 5 as in a reference to Toneh?
I just love how the Fuji wouldn't focus on the dog even if it were a thread to your life
See, that old Fuji Zoom is dope!
In his search for a perfect camera, he accidentally found the way to control the weather and that surely provokes all neighborhood dogs.
If you want a Fuji for vlogging you should just get a Panasonic g9mkii, gh6 or gh7 lol. The fuji stabe cant compete and the autofocus judders too.
„If you want Fuji for vlogging you should get Panasonic“. What?
@jayzn1931 Exactly
I'd rather get pocket 3 than MFT for vlogging only purpose.
People own Fuji for the colour. No Panasonic will replace that, even with it's better stabe and AF lol.
Be good is you used some stills as well to show the differences. Most ppl dont vlog. Weight is a bigger concern than hunting unless youre shooting sports or yourself as a distance.
Hi, thanks for the video! I have the Fuji 16mm f1.4, did you try its macro capability? It's incredible how close you can focus.
I also use the Zeiss Touit 32mm 1.6, it has a 3D pop that's unique to Fuji lenses.
Greetings from Argentina!
you're literally insane, and i love it. jokes on you! i got the 35 1.4 AND the 33 1.4. Now who's poor?!?! ... wait. oh crap. that's me.
Once you see the pop you can’t unsee it.
For sure the viltrox has an old firmware no "optimized" for xh2s.(there was a fw that said exactly that - optimized for xh2s,xt5 etc ... wich "optimization" also shouldn't exist , also a thing that proves fuji is messing too much with their parameters on af system)
You need to make a Fuji documentary :)
@ i think i already did 😅
Thank you for this Video. Love your Channel 😊. Which stabilized lens gives you the most stable footage in the fuji system? 18-55 f2.8-4 vs. 10-24 f4 vs. 16-80 f4? Thank you.
first one. i can guarantee you.
I just picked up the Fuj 60mm 2.4 macro for product photography and I'm loving the results with my hobo skills. I like the look better than the 80mm macro but, again, hobo.
Last part of the vid had pulsating in the back especially when moving your hands🥺 35mm looks great how about a TT artisan 17mm 1.4 or perhaps 27mm 1.4 test for a 3d pop(i understand they manual lenses but im using a lidar with it) would like to compare 😊
The 16 1.4 i unreal
Just out of curiosity, i would love to hear your take on the sirui nightwalkers, eventho they lack auto focus. maybe then you could compare them to the sniper ones later, since they have af.
Would be pretty interesting to watch
Already reviewed them...
Fuji 18 1.4 pops…depends on level pop. You should develop a pop scale rating, your nomenclature.
12:35 was it snowing? Or is that a ton of backlit dust?
It was hellstorming.
@cameraconspiracies it looked like it earlier! It was shaking so much at times I was getting seasick, but I get seasick just looking at a boat
I LOVE my XF56 T1.2, sweet lens. Have you ever tried any Canon FD lenses? I know they're all manual focus. But, I've used a few and seem to like them. I have the FD135mm f3.5 and the 28mm f2.8. I'd love to get something wider like the 17mm or even a 24mm but the prices for them are much higher. Well, have a great weekend!
I swear to God if I get remarried, I want your soft pad synth track playing in the background while we recite the vows.
Edit: and I would insist that my bride and I do that patented strained chuckle before saying "I do."
What conclusions would you come up with if you started with specs for a vlogging lens where a certain combination of focal length and aperture is desired? For real life use, it might be different specs for different settings: indoor or outdoor, close up or landscapes, objects in motion or sitting still. The choice of a lens will greatly vary between the settings and use. But my point is, what would to come up with if you started on paper with lens specs and scenarios, and then moved to lens quality? You can “design” several lenses with a range in focal lengths and apertures. Then, test for image stability and lens quality. And finally, select a body for the desired features and ease of use. Is this too nerdy?
Interesting about the new 24mm....How about the 33 1.4? The photos and reviews make it look pretty exceptional.
3d pop is all caused by using simple double gauss lens design.
If the design is complex a.k.a modern lens, don't hope anything on it. You can google double gauss design and will find Zeiss lenses are pretty much using it
Your glasses are perspiring.
that viltrox 56 1.4T was giving me a headache with the pulsing and the chromatic aberration.
You should try to shoot a vlog on a leica. Could be magic
3:48 anyone know what lens this was? Looks nice!
Is there any difference in pop between 56 1.2 and the 56 1.2 apd
Not sure.
3D pop is real.
The Dirty Photography Club channel who reveals the science including role of ED elements. Suggestion: use 2x playback speed.
Going to legally change my name to Toneh 2.8
90mm is dreamy.
Do "pop" lenses have more pop wide open or stopped down?
Wide open. Get close to subject and have background much further away. Experiment outdoors with a variety of both distances.
@christianpetersen1782 in Casey's "pop" demos (on the train tracks) he isn't particularly close to the camera
Kasey, are you doing a lot of grading to the vlog videos here? Or is this just what you get if you shoot f-log(1) or something? I think they look really good - simple, clean, realistic - and would like to achieve that look, but I don't have experience shooting let alone grading video. I'm wondering if just "set it to audio and choose f-log" gets me enough of the way there, or do I have to get DaVinci and all that other stuff to achieve what you have here and pull out the 3-d pop.
It's just slapping the official Fuji LUT on the footage basically.
Thanks! I’ll try giving it a go. I’ve got the 16 and the 35, and the iffy weather - all I need is a dog walker to accost me!
If you need wide
Get the sigma 10-18
If you need a wide angle photo lense. Nothing beats 18mm 1.4lm wr
If you need a 50mm get the 33mm 1.4lm wr
If you need 85mm get the sigma 56mm 1.4.
If you need a standard zoom get the new fuji 16 55 2.8 lm wr ii
Don't get old lenses and then compare for sharpness with other systems or complain about af while using old lenses..
Weather resistance for people that actually use their cameras other than in thier lounge is huge.
18mm 1.4lm wr is a legendary lense..
pls make more video of 3dpop ,still couldn't find my lens
that focus hunting though, is it the camera or the lens?
Both.
Old firmware on the Viltrox lens.
Kasey... or Gordon Freeman in City17?
Well you look kind of nice with longer hairs :p. What about 50 1.0?
