- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 มิ.ย. 2024
- Fujifilm video files and codecs explained. Emphasis on Fujifilm X-T4. Also explanation of Bitrate, Long GOP, and All-Intra for video shooting. Here's my best recommendations for common scenarios:
1. Want best possible video and audio quality
Use: 4K 400Mbps with MOV/H.265(HEVC) LPCM with ALL-I Compression
2. Just posting stuff to social media like Facebook:
Use: FHD or 4K with MP4/H.264 AAC with Long GOP (however if shooting lots of motion, change substitute Long GOP with ALL-I instead.
JPEG vs. RAW files: • Fujifilm Cameras: RAW ...

I've been shooting stills on my Xt-3 for a couple of years. Last year we were locked down here in Spain, no exercise permitted, my photo work dried up instantly, and I had a lot of time on my hands..... so I switched it to video mode and started to learn. I found this channel fairly quickly and watched more or less everything. A year on.... I am now starting to get paid for shooting video, and it's 99% thanks to you. It's one of the best instructive TH-cam channels I have come across and I haven't taken the time to say thanks so far... so here it is. Thanks..... it doesn't seem enough really, but I really, really mean it. Keep doing what you do.
Nice, how are you getting paid to shoot video? I’m looking to do the same just curious
@@cbskater44 Fairly basic stuff to be honest, but mostly for small business social media. Everyone wants video these days. I bought a gimbal to go with the camera, downloaded DaVinci Resolve, which is free and excellent. I've been a pro stills photographer for 15 years and just started to offer a few free taster videos to my existing clients to see if they liked them, and they started hiring me. I'm sure an expert videographer would see all kinds of faults, but my clients seem to like them, and like the price and it really boosts their engagement on Instagram, which seems to be what it is all about these days.... and it's fun to learn something new.
@@oliverstuart Curious, what do you charge? I’ve got an opportunity with a local business in my area but I don’t know a fair rate to charge them, currently waiting for my x-t200 to get here to reply back.
@@oliverstuart Thank goodness for Covid and Lockdowns 😃
Thank you for bringing us closer to our Fujis with your talent, knowledge, hard work... and humor!
Dude….this is the most clear explanation on what codecs, video file types, and audio compression types I have EVER seen. Chris, you are a super effective instructor.
Everyone who sees this video needs to go and update their transcripts! You are now 2-credits smarter in media than you were before watching.
You’re a great teacher. Thanks a lot for removing all the confusion.
Chris - this is gold!
As a stills shooter the video options on my camera was a complete mystery, like trying to read a foreign language. And as a Fujifilm shooter for over 6 years I have never touched this functionality.
This episode is like the Rosetta Stone!
You are an extraordinary ambassador to Fujifilm and I hope they are remunerating you. You have global (& cross cultural) reach so from down here in Australia I thank you!
It's amazing how you explain things so well, that complicated looking stuff becomes easy and always perfectly presented in a fun way.
Agree
By far the best channel for explaining stuff like this in an easy way - excellent work!
Your videos and the presentation of additional info on screen are getting better each week!
Chris, once again, you've made clear a mystery of the Fuji universe. Thanks so much!
I just love how you explain things in such simple way, excellent work.
Honestly, this is the best explanation I've been seen on Fuji and video settings.
finally a video that breaks it down and makes it simple to understand! thank you! dont stop!!!
Outstanding. I wish all the people who tried to teach me something throughout my life (and there are many) had the smarts, energy, clarity and humor you have......I would be so much better off!!!!!!!!
Your videos are, by far, the most informative and extremely helpful for learning. Plus there’s an undeniable fun factor. Thank you so much.
A link to your videos needs to be included with every Fuji camera. As an amateur, it was so daunting trying to learn about my X-T4 through endless forums and unclear videos. Since I’ve found your channel, it’s like night and day. I love watching every new video you make, I’ve gotten so much more comfortable with my camera and have learned so much about photography and video in general thanks to you. Keep it up!
You are great again. This is so confusing topic for new video makers.
I needed this video a year ago :)) you are telling everything so simple. thanks for wonderful lesson.
Another great and interesting video. You're my all-time favorite for Fuji camera explanations, even though I'm not a native English speaker. Very clear, distinct and understandable and extremely personable. Perhaps you will one day bring out a super tips and tricks book for the Fuji XT-4 that goes beyond the usual manuals? I would buy it!
Thank you so much! I spent a lot of time trying to remember the best movie mode settings without really understanding what they meant and was struggling because of that. Watching This video has cleared up so much and I already feel more confident to switch my camera to movie mode. 🙌🏽
You are the best ! Very interesting topic and one of my favorite TH-cam channels.
Thanks Adnan!!!!! Great to see you here pal!!! 👍
Amazing video! Such great information and organized presentation, and great production!!
Thank you sooooo much ! One of the best information I have ever get her on TH-cam!!!! Thank you 🙏
I love your channel!! You are one of the best TH-cam content creators ever.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING THE TIME TO INSTRUCT FILMMAKERS, VIDEOGRAPHERS AND PHOTOGRAPHERS
Thank you so much! 🙏 🙏 I LOVE NYC!!!! Best place on earth!
It's the best explainer video I've seen on TH-cam about XT-4 video settings. Excellent work, congrats. I suscribe! 🎥🎞️😁
This was fabulous! I am wanting to try video and honestly hearing people using words like codecs and the like was like a foreign language! You’ve explained this really well, thank you.
Thank you so much for this introduction to shooting video! I am a long time stills photographer, but a bit intimidated by the video learning curve. More please!
Thanks Chris! you really do awesome content I really mean it man it helps A LOT.
Thanks, been working with Codecs and fuji cameras for years, but this helped clarify a number of things!
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You - I have been looking for this valuable info FOREVER. No one on TH-cam ever gives this info. All they tell is how they THINK you should set your Fuji up for “good” video. I would guess most don’t understand what you have graciously provided. HALLELUJAH! Now I know what I am looking at in the Video Menu Mess. I’m used to the old days of picking up a camcorder, turning it on and pressing the record button. Stupid me, I thought, now I have a camera that will eliminate the camcorder. Until you come along I was totally lost. Thank You! Now I can start making good use of the other half of my T4.
You make every session so easy to understand. A tremendous breath of fresh air. That You! for not leaving the, how to, details out. And, you do it with a smile on your face. 👏
Thank you so much!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏👍
Anothe fantastic micro seminar! 🎖🎖🎖🎖
Thank you for the videos you´re uploading, they´re super helpful. Really appreciate it!
Great delivery Chris... answered some questions for me... thank you.
Wow Professor , you just "decoded" much of the "code" language "contained" in FUJI XT3 user manual.
This is "Raw" knowledge..........Brilliant as always and many thanks for sharing !!!
As always, explained so perfectly that it was easy to follow and understandable with that touch of Pal2Tech humor. Love it! 😉
Thanks! 😃
Thanks so much!
This explains a lot!
So, "all-i" aka intra is the way to go.
Did not realize this until yesterday or so, along with this video,
which made it so obvious clear...!
Good job Chris, even a newbie could understand this presentation!!👍👍👍
Thanks Chris, your videos are nuggets of gold !!
Great instructional video. You are definitely a talented instructor! Could you please consider doing a series of videos that explain post-processing with an example of a small vdeo file? That is where I am hung up now.
Glad to see you are now going more in-depth with the video modes for fujifilm. Now if you would start using DaVinci Resolve, LOL, I could skip all the other channels and just watch yours!
Can't wait to travel back to the US to pick up my X-t4 and accessories. Thay are at my brothers house and every time I talk to him on Facetime he has to show them to me. Would cost a fortune to ship to Panama. An expat living in Panama.
Brilliant! loved the metaphors used
An excellent and very helpful explanation - thank you!
Extremely helpful! Thank you.
Brilliant tutorials, Thank-you, you have helped me so much with my new fuji xh2
For me, video is like a black art, I have no clue as to what is happening. Until now...now I at least know something about what is going on, so thank you.
That's awesome!!!! Thank you so much for letting me know Ken!!! 🙏
A wonderful video
I've been using my XH2 to shoot different videos and there are some videos that I cannot play on my computer.
I'm now sure that I've been shooting at bitrates and intra or GOP settings that are just too much for my system.
Your video has given me the insight to be a little more thoughtlful about what I am asking my camera to do and whether my computer can work with it.
Thanks!
Explained very well and understandably, even for me I grew up not speaking English. For this I have now subscribed to your channel. Many Thanks. 👍👍👍
Thank you for all your videos. Really appreciete your time and energy. Keep it up please
Oh goodness, that is a lot of information. You make it relatively easy to understand, though, Chris!
I guess i’ll probably only need lower quality for now, but should I record higher, like taking RAW still images, in case I want to process them more extensively later?
Thanks for your amazing content as always, Chris!
Another useful and informative video. Thank you!
Hats off for the great explanation. Thank you!
Hey Pal, excellent explanation. Thank you very much.
great explanation as always! 🙏
You just answered every question I have on this subject. Thanks
This made perfect sense! Thank you!
Good evening Chris and thank you so much again. Its a really great pleasure to hear und see you explaining, and, I did say it before: I am so surprised understanding an learning all that stuff from beginning to the end. Is it possible to become addicted to technical lessons??
Thx for this video! You do a great work!
Great video (and energy) as usual !! Undoubtedly, the Best channel for Fuji shooters so thanks so much for your hard dedicated work.
Speaking about h265 becoming more used....Would you do a video on editing h265 from importing to exporting your project? Please please please...
OMG, thanks a billion for your kind sharing video info.
It's really new knowledge for me, of this "moving picture"s settings.
Very instructive video, thank you.
another great video with lots of info, thanks for sharing
Awesome job, as always,
This was really helpful. I have been shooting 120fps for slowmo and recently I feel it like too slow. 60fps gives something in the middle which I felt good for my type of work. But I couldn't switch to 4K 60fps until I watched this video. Thanks for those formats, compressions workaround.
Thankyou so much for this video! I am working on a script to clip/merge videos with ffmpeg - the easy to understand information about GOP / Full Intra really helped me understand my issues! (Segsments being cut on the *keyframe* before the time supplied to ffmpeg - not accurate enough)
Great teaching. Thank you
I now have a better understanding of the video settings on this camera ...thank you, Chris!
Thank you so much for all the knowledge you share with us. And you teach in such a simple manner! One other question I haven't found the answer to, is if there is a way for me to shoot video with no audio. I'm an in-water surf photographer/videographer and since camera is inside housing, it doesn't really need to be recording any sounds. And I think would make files not only lighter but also easier for post production. Thank you so much. BIG FAN from Argentina!
This was explained really well. I just purchased an XT-3 to arrive Saturday. Will long GOP work 4K 59f/s at a particular setting at all?
Thanks for this video! On the X-T4's menu where you choose the container and codec, it mentions that H265 provides the best quality. However, you mention that the quality is roughly the same but it's just more efficient. If I only take the videos through Premiere Pro, is there any reason to keep using H264?
Is 4K 60p available for All-Intra H.265? Thanks for all the info shared so far on this channel!
Chris is the camera dad we never had
Your videos are amazing. You explain very well. You have a gift. Fuji should hire you. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge. Regards!
Okay! You teased us well! Now I want a review and shooting on that GFX baby! I really hope it'll be released soon!
Tomorrow!
Thanks Chris, an other very nice explanation, we are definitively missing a Xtab in Fuji doc about,
I understood that image speed rate and transfert speed are the most importants setup, isn't it ?
By the way, I'm so happy to know that Fuji is now selling GFX100S empty boxes, a nice tip! lol
This is gold! Thank you :)
thanks for the valuable info presented easily
man you're trully the best
Thank you for the explainer video. It was very helpful. On my up-to-date firmware X-T3 I've never seen a container option for MP4 (only MOV). However, just changing the output file .MOV extension to .MP4 seems to work just fine.
How to change it?
thank you mate for your time and explanation
🙏
thanks, that was very informative. I had a question about LONG GOP and ALL INTRA. since I shoot moving subjects, I assume I would need to choose ALL INTRA, however, then I get fewer options with frame rate and bitrate? isn't that counter productive?
your video is great! Lots of informations that I needed! Thanks. The only thing I don't get is why I do not have the "container" as you say at 7:08. I just have H.264 or H.265 on Fuji XT3
Thank you again for this video
An empty camera box and a 1040 form = fun video??? Okaaay I guess you have earned the benefit of the doubt.
LOL!!! Very good point my friend!!!! Next time full box and a XT-5 order receipt!
That was really helpful.
Ton of useful information as always , thx guru 🙏, and how about the best kind of sd card we use, is it enough with uhs 1 or it must uhs 2 300 Mb/s read and write ? and i thought we never mention about loosing file from the camera that suddenly dies while recording perhaps because the battery drain out, imagine that is the important long file during ceremony, maybe the upcoming firmware update can give the solution 🤷
Thank you for the useful information. Is there an option for H.265 in the x-s10? Disappointment
Thanks alot Great information 👏😃
What an amazing talent you have for demystifying these complicated settings. Thank you! Oh and great to see a Genesis CD in your video too! (though they made better ones than Abacab...😉)
Awesome information
I like your compression algorithm for the metadata....
😃
Hello! Very interesting video! Thanks! Would you recommend me the minimum bit rate recording for uploading to youtube? I don't have a fast sd card, so I'm wondering what can I do with the one I have! Cheers!
Many thank's, for all your help with fuji's kmera, i never find the same in my owm language: french,... by the way !! Poor france in 2022... You've saved us !!! "merçi beaucoup !!!
Thanks for the video
Best explanation 👍👍👍
Great explanation!
Thanks Sharon!!
Chris, you just gain some additional respect from m for showing that Genesis CD. You have good taste for music, ALTHOUGH that particular album is among the least liked ones in their catalogue. I hop you are familiar with the rest of their material.
I am not into video much but I still enjoyed this. Thanks.
were you shooting this at super low FPS? Especially around 0:45 mark the video is super jerky/low fps feel. Great Long GOP explanation in the end, thanks! Exactly what I was looking for :)
Hi, thank you for this video which I've just seen now after purchasing the Fujifilm xs20. What a wealth of information you provide! I want to upload travel videos to TH-cam and would like to experiment with colour grading. I've read 10 bit is much better for this, however I have a pc and the 10 bit options are only available in MOV which is better suited to apple users. Can you give me any advice on this? Thanks again
Please a video between All intra and Looooooonnnnnnnggggg GOP 😁
You're rock Pal2tech , love ur channel! I
Thank you so much! 👍
Hi, I watched your video and got a lot of skills. I have a question, is there a significant different between 400mpbs and 200mbps on X-T3 use H.265 in All Intra mode?
I understand! Bravo!!!
Thank you!
