Guys let me know what you think about me picking up the XT5!
If you want to grab one you can here - geni.us/B8Az72b
I’m shooting Fuji exclusively now. Was shifting between Sony and Canon for awhile but I got tired of waiting for Canon to actually make lenses for the rf mount. For Sony, I still love their cameras and they do a fantastic job at being clinical in their execution, but that’s sort of where I got bored with them. The A7R5 is really kind of a masterpiece in photography, but I would argue that the Fuji Xt5 and XH2 are standing tall right behind it. There’s just something about those Fuji colors. They’re just simply fantastic. The latest firmware update for the XT5 has made the autofocus quite good. I’m very happy with it. The XT5 is the camera that goes everywhere with me.
Im planning on getting the xh2s for video is simply amazing!
Xt5 is awesome but it’s not are reliable as my Sony
Great video Gerard! Having used both - the "soul" of photography is very enticing under Fuji for sure
Totally agree!
Wanna expirience soul of photography? You should go for film. Modern Fuji are super overpriced (full frame territory) toys for JPEGs, fancy filters and cool knobs. Most expensive APSC cameras and lenses that cant even autofocus properly? Its a damn cringe😅 Just Like its community, full of blind fanatics.
Really well done on this man! Keep it up
Cheers Phil bro, need to shoot some xt5 snaps together
Great video as usual!
Just upgraded from XT3 to XT5 and I will get the 33mm. Will you replace it with the Viltrox? Was hesitating between both tbh
Yeah I’ll get the Viltrox 27mm over the Fuji 33 as I can always crop to get a 50mm field of view with that 40mp sensor. And I like the option of a f1.2 plus it’s cheaper ahahahahah
@@gerardneedham haha makes sense. I got a superb opportunity on the 33mm so I think I will go for it!
Old saying - different strokes for different folks. IMO, no problem using mixed/multiple systems if that best fits your needs. Personal preferences differ and can change over time. That’s a more practical and adaptable approach, IMO, than the “fan boy” model. Trade-offs and compromises are to be expected. Shows maturity. (Can get one in trouble, though when approach is applied to girlfriends😊.)
Ahahahahah that’s a good quote mate
Enjoyed your video. I have both the Viltrox 27mm f/1.2 and the Fuji 18mm f/1.4. Both lenses are very good and super sharp however IMO the images that the Viltrox produces have a very distinctive look about them. Can't describe it but it is very pleasing. The Fuji 18mm f/1.4 is also a great lens and I use that mostly as my day to day all rounder. I have an X-S10 and would love to see how both those lenses perform on a 40mp sensor. If I can find a decent 2nd hand X-T5 at the right price I could be tempted.
Awesome man I’m keen to see if I like to shoot on a 28mm and 40mm (FF field of view) lenses or stick with 24mm and 50mm
You are doing the right choice. Good photos, plus more resolution, 2 SD card and more.
Yeah I think so
XT5 is a very good choice. It's also my every day camera now. I keep the XT-3 to play with vintaage lenses (seventies), like Super Takumar 8 blades (1964), Karl Zeiss Jena Flektogon, etc. Greetings from belgium.
Very nice bro, sounds like a fun set up man.
Thanks for the comment
which film simulation or recipe did you use for the jpgs around 8:43? Great video!
I’ve been using the astra/soft with no adjustments
2 camera systems is a cool thing - i'm adding Lumix to my fuij xpro 2 set up... I finally get the XT-5 hype!
Epic
Gerard, definitely try out the Sigma 56/1.4 and the Viltrox 75/1.2 lenses for portraits on your X-T5. You might be familiar with both of these lenses on your E-mount cameras already.
Yeah I have the 56mm for Sony and I’ll getting that lens for Fuji or the viltrox 75mm, longer focal lengths are more video lens for me and I like wider than 50 mm for portraits
Thanks for the video. I have a sony a6000 and like the ergonomics and snappy, quick, autofocus. Yet, the noise levels are problematic. Got a chance to play with the XT5 and found the 40 megapixel APS-C quality fantastic. Yet, the focus seemed funky and inconsistent on the XT5, The interesting part: I did some research on the XT5 and it seems as if the sensor is actually made by Sony?? Not sure? Maybe I missed something, but how does the noise and image quality or dynamic range vary between the 6700 and the XT5 ???
I think Fuji make the Xtrans sensors or it’s Fujis design and they get Sony to make it.
The autofocus is ok and works but it’s no Sony
I've bought an X-T5 and all of Fujifilm best normal lenses (33mm, 56mm, 16, 23, all f1.4), and it AF is not as good as Sony, even comparing with A6000. With the same money, you can buy an Sony A7R3A and the IQ is top notch. Yes, if something beautiful makes you more artistic then you should buy Fuji cam, otherwise, Sony is a better choice.
thanks.@@tumivn
I'd pick the X-T5. With Sonys, you're stuck with using mic. level for the mic jack. With my Fuji X-S10 you can select mic or line level. I'm assuming you can with this Fuji and this makes using external sound sources optimal for baking in great audio and uploading directly to YT or others without any post work.
Hey, you actually get 24bit from Sonys if you use the hot shoe and 16bit from the 3.5mm Jack.
You can also split the channels in 4 and control the input within the camera.
So I think Sony is better than Fuji for audio
Thanks man. You need to use their accessories though. Fuji allows you to select line level and use whatever sound source you want. @@gerardneedham
Hi,
Love your videos and explanations !
Can you (or someone else) respond to this question : what is the best option to choose between a Sony a7iii or Fuji XT4 ?
thanks :)
Really depends what your goal is, the a7iii is a fantastic video and photo camera with great lens options as well as the xt5
But for a paid job I prefer full frame and for travel Fuji is the win for me
if you life depends on it...i will pick sony..but i have the xt5. its just a great camera to hold n use. autofocus etc is good enough for travel and daily use. the most unrelated factor to a good photo is what i love about the xt5 so muxh, even at home its just so nice to hold the camera, slap on a lens, turn the dials to get a shot of my cat (until then can actually recognise the camera and start turning away when i point at them.)
Yeah Sony is best Fuji is more fun
XT5 is an absolute beast! Welcome to Fuji mate
Slaps
Currently have the XT4 and A6700 ! Unfortunately going to sell the A6700 as well as the XT4 covers most of what I need and the film simulations are great.
However, I like the clinical look the Sony captures for car photography, without having the film look. Do you know if there is a work around this ?
Yeah XT4 is also a great photo camera, shoot RAW and Jpeg and then edit the RAW photos,
You’ll need to learn White balance correction when using Fuji as you can get the same look as Sony, but Fuji s auto White balance and their WB presets suck ahahah
Thanks for sharing
what lense would you use on the fujifilm XT-5 for clicking photographs of newborn babies
Probably the 33mm f1.4
I currently have a a7r5 and xt5. Man I keep coming back to my xt5 for all portraits and artistic usage….. those colors and in general just a pleasing image ❤ but when it comes to shooting work like a running race the guaranteed shot of a fast running subject from my Sony wins out :( especially when high iso is needed on a dark morning when the race starts. I am thinking about keeping both but man it just feels indulgent and I do love simplification 😊
Loved the video! Thanks for making and sharing your opinions🙏
Yeah you really can’t not pick a Sony for reliable autofocus, it just hits the mark every time and I do t have that confidence with the XT5
@@gerardneedham thanks for the reply!
Hi friend, may I suggest replacing the a7R V with a Fujifilm X-H2s? It's a little more geared towards speed and has a little better autofocus due to the stacked sensor - not as much resolution, but still more simplified since you're on only one lens mount. Could be worth renting or borrowing somewhere!
@@sarveshgupta9924 I like the form factor of the XT5 and the 40mp, but i did consider the H2 and the H2s
@@sarveshgupta9924 thanks for the thought I would like to try it out in a speed situation :) . Will try to rent one near by 👍👍
what are you using to edit your fuji photos with, Lightroom or Capture One?
Hey I use Lightroom and I edit with my presets, if you want to get a pack they are linked in the description
Depends what you’re using it for. The autofocus and ibis is incomparable between the two lol. I would like the Fuji if I were strictly photography..but for anyone into videography, a6700’s autofocus is miles ahead.
Yeah you really can’t bet Sony for video, no chance
Right that would be bad for travel vlogs if that’s ur main thing. Also kind of weird he said doesn’t fit his aesthetic. If he not using the film simulations like said then should be on par with each other. Most buy the Fuji for the film simulation.
The X-T5 is such a great camera. Sadly I sold it as I have a ton of Sony glass I used with the Sony A7RV. I ended up getting the Sony A7cii as a secondary camera to use a more compact setup. I also have a Leica that gives me what i’m looking for in a fuji camera. Either way the X-T5 rocks! sad I had to let it go along with the 33mm F1.4
Yeah it’s a cool camera to use, having 3 mounts would be a bit much, the A7CII with the Sony 40mm f2.5 would be a good setup
@@gerardneedham yeah that’s exactly the lens I got with it. Going to miss my fuji setup but like you said 3 setup/ mounts is way too much. Them fuji colors are so beautiful.
Welcome to the dark side! Now you need to try the Touit 32 1.8 ;)
Mmm a ZEISS lens, I have the 35 and 55 for Sony from ZEISS and it’s amazing
Love the Sony a6700 great camera
Yeah I do too 🥹 sad to see it go
I am confused b/w a6700 and xt5😢😢
Xt5 for sure but I’m biased
How in the heck did you shoot 79 weddings in a year? I've heard of 50 but 79!
I outsource my editing and I contract to a few different companies
I also used to be a aircraft engineer and did 6 x 12 hour night shifts, so shooting 4 weddings back to back is a walk in the park for me ahahahah.
I have a friend and she did over 80 weddings and did all the admin and editing which is wild
That's wild mate! great quality work!@@gerardneedham
Frothing the fuji XA5 photos in 🇧🇷
Me too 🥰
Fuji has the most attractive, beautiful lenses:)).Sony has huge, unattractive lenses. A6700, A7Ci are small but the objectives are huge, I don't like it
Totally agree! Sigam also need to make some better locking APSC lenses
how does one shoot 79 weddings lol
I have my own weddings and I also contract out to companies, so I don’t edit a lot of the weddings and all the afim stuff.
I shoot 2-5 weddings a week mate.
I know why you switched. It was a desperate move to pickup Fuji users. Here I am with my Sony A6700 and you switched cameras like a cheap suite.
Not at all, if I want Fuji fans I’ll just keep borrowing my friends cameras. I just don’t want to keep shooting with my Sonys as they are a bit boring, too perfect.
The XT5 is a much better shooting experience for fun, but also annoying.
The a6700 is a great hybrid camera, but I wanted a photo first camera 📸
Yeah... its so wrong to buy sony system in the first place, i would buy an R7 instead more powerful, better screen, better colours, dual card slots
R7 has no good APSC lenses tho lol 😝
@@gerardneedham why use apsc lens when u can use rf lens... cant afford much? Hahaha size matters? Blahhh a 50mm rf is a small lens, dont act like puss* hahaha
… six months after upgrading the a6600? 😂
Ahahahahah yeah it was kinda silly upgrading as I never used the a6600
Please sell your A6700 to me ... I am interested
Oh I already sold it 😂
Once I tried the Fuji XT4 I hated my Sony a7c, which I sold immediately, with its horrible grip and heavy lenses. It’s all about the colors.
Yup Fuji has a better user experience
Should have gotten an a7iv
I have 3 🙊
@@gerardneedham kick ass
let me buy your 6700 sir 😊
Deal dm me 😅
@@gerardneedham how sir? im from philippines 😅
Sell me your camera a6700
DM me 😃
@@gerardneedham where
@@gerardneedham Reply please
Shocked. The Af was so bad compared to Sony that I sold my XT5.
Yeah it’s not quite there yet but usable
This is why I originally sold mine but I ended up buying another and only using it for portraits and street photography
I sold XT5 coz of AF and Noise then bought Panasonic S5M2
Yea the xt5 is getting returned. Somehow it can focus on the reflection off the eye but not on the eye itself. Tried a barrage of settings/lenses and “fixes”. It’s just not there yet. Loved the photos that were in focus. Rather have working autofocus and try to adjust my colors in Lightroom.
Don’t be shocked lol. Many people have made the decision he’s made. TH-cam is proof enough of that. Just look it up. The thing is that Sony has just spoiled us. However, the XT5 has good auto focus, even though it doesn’t hold water to Sonys mind blowing perfect autofocus. Again, we’re just spoiled lol
Congratulations, You bought APSC for full frame money (both cameras and lenses) from a company that is always one generation behind the rest because "colorfull JPEGs" and stylish look. I believed guys like you until I tried it for myself. And that horrible fanbase of blind fanatics... I dont wannabe part of that. They can give you alot of likes and subs tho, that is probably the reason you make that video.
Umm not at all, I’ve been so ignorant towards Fujifilm and always thought it was over hyped. I tested a bunch, XE4, XT4, X100V ect.
And I didn’t like them, but the XT5 makes alot of sense for me, as I don’t want to travel with my Pro camera body’s and lenses, and I want a fun camera.
It also does make sense having both Sony and Fujifilm for TH-cam, and I’ve found Fujifilm audience are less technical and more creative and wanting to learn about the photography process, while the sony audience is a split between professional photographers and tech lovers.
So having a range of audience makes sense
@@gerardneedham "I’ve found Fujifilm audience are less technical and more creative and wanting to learn about the photography process" Exactly, because they didnt know much about it and pretending they do.
TBH X-T5 was my dream camera, I even start the proces of switching systems, got X-S10 and later X-S20 - huge dissapointment. So maybe X-T5 (photo flagship) would have better AF, proper grip, more modern menu system (whitch is bad - A6400-like). Nope. It just costs more money and look sexier.
I will buy X-T5... shortly before X-T6 will be coming out and the price would be on acceptable level. Now Id rather go for X-T3, for photos its more than enaugh.
@@m4rcin847Why was the X-S20 a huge disappointment? Thanks
@@zoide-777 Microscopic viewfinder, unreliable autofocus on anything that moves or in dark conditions, zooms are huge and heavy, very limited and very expensive lens options for anything else than casual street or portrait stuff. The stronger the hype the bigger the dissapointment. Same with X-T5.
@@m4rcin847 What did you end up with? You mentioned the X-T3, but the downsides of "unreliable autofocus, huge zooms and limited lens options" would be the same for that as for the X-T5.
sony has the worst colors🥴
Sony has accurate colors
@@gerardneedham you think? in this video alone when you compared the colors, it was obvious the sony had a major red shift compared to the others... just my observation here.
