- Is this new X-T50 a better camera than the Fujifilm X100VI and the X-T5? I kind of fell in love with this camera for its looks but mainly for what's inside and all the new features.

I got my X-T50 today, and I totally agree with you on the EVF! And so far, I’m really enjoying this camera, along with the new 16-50 kit lens. So glad I preordered it!
Awesome! 😃
The reason to not add a 2nd slot or the bigger battery is that part of the unique selling proposition of the X-T50 is that IT IS SMALLEr. I am baffled how many miss this point. I would agree lack of weather sealing is a missed opportunity simply becuase FUji has small weather sealed primes but not a body as small as this.
Ya thought of that of course, but technology wise - they could work it out no?
@@cris_photography No, not necessarily. Heat, space, price. You have to compromise at some point. The camera being bigger is no good. We shot for ages with a single slot and the product positioning isn’t top pro in the line.
If they weather proved this camera, they'd be cannibalizing their own products. The xt5 is for people who want whether sealed
@@Raist3db Agree, there's just no place for bigger batterie and a second card slot, no compromize on size and weight, just get a XT5 otherwise. But shame that with that price increase they didn't add the WR to pair with the new 16-50 WR and the fujicron primes.
@@Kliffot I agree with you not making it WR was a missed opportunity, precisely because they do have small primes that are WR.
Other than the price, which everyone is rightfully upset about, should I give up waiting for my X100VI preorder and just get the X-T50?
Imo the price is more than ok, for an uptodate camera with all the latest tech and the capability to change lenses. I’d go with this and get a 27mm pancake to keep it small almost like an X100VI. Cheers!
Wait for the x100vi and sell it for $$$ then buy the xt50
I would rather pay a little extra to get their bigger brother, the X-T5.
X-T50 & X100VI both are way too overpriced. You could even save some dollars by getting a used X-T5.
IMO, X-T5 is the better choice.
If you are only into the vintage/film camera-like design, just get a Nikon ZFC instead.
Before you buy the X100VI take a look at Samuel Streetlife’s review of it!
I think the word is out on the x100vi being < than the xt50, you may not be able to sell it as easily. I'd skip that step and just get the xt50
Just got my X-T50 yesterday and still learning it. Got it to avoid having to lug around the 5D IV and the 5SII for day trips but this might be a replacement for both. Sure it's not FF but it does a really nice job from what I've seen so far. Great video Cris , no H !
Awesome! Am sure it will make a huge difference for you in terms of size and weight (that’s the first thing I noticed many years ago). Take care!
The charcoal of this is very beautiful
I agree!
I think that's subjective. I have an xt3 that's silver and then my xt30 and my xt50 are both black. I think I like silver and black more
It would be interesting to see a size comparison between the x-t50 and an x-100vi. But I appreciate the latter is hard to get hold of.
It would indeed! Lemme get with Fuji real quick… see what I can do 😁😁
Meantime am reviewing the new and old zoom lens on a T5… video coming soon
@@cris_photography I’ll look forward to it.
Between this and the xs20 which would you recommend
I’d take this one personally
black is my fav color, but after i saw that charcoal..damn i don't know which one to choose😩
Ohhh yes… though decision! I hear ya! ☺️😉
Hi! Awesome video and very informative. I'm upgrading from my compact camera and choosing between the X-T50 and Sony A6700. Which should i go for? I am not going pro but want to treat it as a hobby
Honestly I find the Fuji option more fun to use 😉 take care!
Solid Review, I'm going to pick up this camera with a hand grip instead of the XT5, with the few extra hundred saved, ill put that towards a lens.
Nice! Great choice 👌🏼😉
I shoot professional events with xt30ii ..bring two batteries.. haven't had a failed SD card yet ...as well its small and stays out of the way...I like this XT50 weather dealing please 🥺
Yep, I agree with battery longevity (IF you know how to use it that is) and WR is definitely something I’d love to have/see in this series
Cheers
Thanks for this insight. I have an x100v and am debating if I want to trade it in and put down incremental money for the XT50. It looks like the build quality is not quite on par with the x100v but the technology is better.
Hey there! Honestly the built is not that bad and VERY similar to an X100 camera (it’s basically plastic). The only thing is the lens swapping ability that to me makes it a game changer vs the X100V but it all depends on what every one needs
Take care!
@@desmondedwards6309 I like the feel of the XT50 compared to the X100V. It feels lighter although that depends on the lens. For me being able to change lenses is important. But someone like Valerie Jardin is happy with her X100V and now her X100VI. Go to a shop and hold the XT50
Which is better for travel photography and hobby ...xt 50 or x100 vi ...im primarly a smartphone shooter
Hum… they both work great. If having a lens that you can’t change is ok with you I’d go with the 100V for compactness but if you want to have some flexibility (zoom, etc.) I’d get an XT50. I think if really boils down to that for a hobbyist/traveler
@@cris_photography how much zoom does the kit lens provide? 3x or 5x or more?
Would you recommend the Fujifilm - X-T30 || with XF18-55mm Lens Kit or
Fujifilm X-T50 with
XC15-45mmF3.5-5.6
OIS PZ Lens Kit? the X-T30 is priced at $1299 and the X-T50 is priced at $1499
Honestly I’d take the XT50 personally for future-proofness 🤷🏻😉
I agree, xt50… you can always get that lens or the newest lens later
Hi! I just ordered my XT-50 for travelling around in the next years, im searching for the best lens that can be versatile for every situation while im travelling around the world. Im a beginner but i studied photography for the last year . Which lens you think it's better? Fuji 18-135 or 16-55 + 50 140 combo? Thank you :)
Hey there, great choice! It is a little tricky to say, when I travel I personally use a 35mm (full Frame which is a 23mm for Fujifilm) and that's it. But I'd prolly go with the lens that goes with it as a kit (16-50mm) or there is the Tamron 18-300 if you want a LOT of flexibility! Check it out (I made a review on this channel for that lens). Take care
How do you add the level bar on your screen to make sure the pictures are straight
Go on the wrench 🔧 menu (last one I think it is) and go to screen settings and you should find it in there 👍🏼
Could you suggest the gud mirrorless camara for travel videos ane pictures
Hello 👋🏼 I think the XT50 is great or an XT30II or even an X100V or X100VI
Cheers!
I currently use an X-Pro2 and am thinking of replacing it with this mainly due to features upgrade, especially IBIS for my 70-300, and size/weight. So appreciate the video. Amateur travel photographer BTW. Any thoughts on how it might work with the 16-55? I might just replace the latter with the 16-80 anyway.
Hey there, thanks for your message. The T50 will work just fine with the 16-55 but it’s not a “new lens” for the 40mp sensor so the sharpness might not be as good is the new 16-50 for example (that can be purchased at a much lower price if bought as a kit). Take care!
@@cris_photography thanks and I’m selling my 16~55 and that’s almost paying for the 16-80!
X-e4 vs x-t30 ii vs x-t50??
Tech wise I’d take the T50. But I love the size and shape of the E4 😊
@cris_photography - does xt50 offer tethered shooting with usb cable?
Not sure, but am pretty sure it does (it has the internals of an XT5 which can so I presume it’s the same)
@@cris_photography
So as per the user manual it doesn’t, i checked on fuji website.
Neither does the x100 vi
@SameepIphone really hum? That sucks BUT it is also true that we’re talking small/compact travel since cameras (I’d use something else like a GFX for studios tethered work personally)
I wish you can shoot raw and can change the film simulation in the gallery by turning the dial. And save as a jpg.
You can change the film simulation in Lightroom in post when you shoot RAW 😊
@@cris_photography yes I know, but it will be so useful to do it directly in the camera. That’s why Fuji has this function right? 🤷♂️
Eh? I can do that on my XT2.
Of course when shooting RAW you can save as many jpegs as you like, using whichever film simulation you want, using the in-camera RAW converter. It would be nice to use the film simulation dial to do that though. Preview the image, turn the dial to select the film simulation, hit save.
Release the XE5 with weather seal. period.
Not gonna happen but would be great
So that crappy little 16-50 plastic kit lens can resolve a 40mp sensor?
Yes
I want the xpro4!
I hear ya 💪🏼😮💨
Arm it with a 27mm pancake and why would anyone buy an X100vi?
Yep… my very thoughts…
weather sealing, more dials and 27 mm is not 23. Arent the files smaller on the 100vi? optical view finder as well.
weather sealing, optical viewfinder, built in ND filter, to name a few.
I think the main thing is optical viewfinder, some people just really want that. 🤷
Got to make sure you have x100vi in the title haha!
It’s the closest camera to compare it to - especially with it’s fame. Also, I personally have a beef with the lack of interchangeability of the lenses so yep 😁
Lack of weather sealing is a shame!
Right????
Vidéo prévue en français ? Merci
Hello 👋🏼 oui je l’ai publiée hier soir sur ma chaîne française (Cris sans H)
A bientôt 😊
i am buying this camera over iphone hehe.
Nice 😁
Same lol
Both cameras are insanely expensive and that's all.
I guess that’s opinion based 🤷🏻
For all you get - it’s actually a correct piece (especially the T50) but again, personal preferences 👍🏼

Hello! Shoot me an email contact@crisphotography.info
@@cris_photography Hey man, thanks for interested! Done, I just sent an email to you!
All they had to do was stick all the modern bells and whistles in an xt20 and they would have had the greatest hobbyist camera of all time. Amazing how Fuji have snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. The price was a kick in the balls but whatever, I would've sucked it up. But having to stare at that ridiculous dumdum dial every time I picked it up would have been too much. The most glaring omission is the d-pad which seems to have left with a whimper and very little protest. I wonder why they keep it on all their pro-level cameras? Maybe because it's an absolutely crucial part of a well designed, fully functional camera...
X-T30 doesn't have a d-pad either
I hear ya! Thanks for the feedback
@@jlee104 yup and I didn't buy that either. If you weren't interested in video the xt30 was arguably a step backwards.
I think Fuji are concerned that the xt** line is too powerful and would hinder xt* sales if they don't cripple it in the most ridiculous ways. Releasing the xt50 at basically the same price as the xt5 also implies this.
@thomashill5768
"Amazing how Fuji have snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. "
Do you have access to X-T50 pre-order figures? For all we know it could be the most pre-ordered Fuji after the X100VI.
@JackBurton-qp4hc bam - well said 😂😂 (I have access personally and it’s insane)
Get the xt5 for a couple of hundred dollars more.
The only drawback for some is the size and that’s a difference that can’t be overlooked. But otherwise yes, XT5 is the way to go
@tedormsby
Size and weight is the issue. X-T5 is no good for me.
@@JackBurton-qp4hcsame xt5 is a lil heavy for me. Also people keep saying get the xt5 for a couple hundred bucks when xt50 is $1,399 with kit lens and $2,099 for the xt5 (unless you have lens already)
Xt50 is just a fair price with how compact it is and advance tech. Just missing out on the weather sealing though.
Fujifilm is good if blurred shots and inaccurate shots are your thing.
You might want to learn to use it?
@@cris_photographybooooom 🎉 hahahaha
For tracking is so bad, for for single point auto focus the only way using this camera😅
@nandysullivan3005 did you see my dogs shots? He didn’t pose for me - he was literally waking and out of 47 shots not a single blurry one (in tracking mode)
Cameras don’t take blurry photos. Photographers do.
