What do y’all want to see me use this for? Street photography? A full day of photography with it? Let me know 👇
Contextual portraits and urban landscapes, if that's not too much of a curve ball. 🙏
lets see some portraits and landscapes. The basics!!!
True photography. It is subjective but it's my two cents to describe this camera. The flip out screen some may find it's a gimmick but I find it, a challenge. I mean it is intended the design and feels like using a camera in the past. The film looks that this camera produced is great. I don't owned this, if I have the budget, I would buy this no doubt.
Photograph the p Diddy after party you go to 😊
To say an X-pro 3 is a small pocket friendly camera is delusional!
Yeah they might look small in videos but they’re quite big in person. Even the X100V isn’t pocket friendly. Get a Ricoh GR if you want a pocketable camera.

@@vt4979But then you won't have all the sweet Fuji film simulations and "recipes," right? Or can the GR3 shoot similar color OOC?
@@MadLadsAnonymous I don't know I haven't shot with a GR3 just commented on the pocketable factor of fuji cameras. I've been using an X-Pro2 with an adapted leica lens as my travel camera and very happy with it.
@@MadLadsAnonymousthe Ricoh gr has a large selection of community made recipes :)
27 mm 2.8 pancake is even more thin and better for portability and compactness.
I have the Fuji 27mm 2.8! It's amazing. My camera is so small now that I just put it into a sling bag with my wallet and go shoot.
Love the 27mm
Thinking about buying a XT-30 ii and the 27mm 🤔
I agree with a lot of the commenters that suggested the 27mm f/2.8 R WR, it’s so good that you may defecate building material.
I don’t have the 18f/2 but do rock the 27f/2.8 on my XP3 and love it. Either one makes for an awesome combo and a beautiful companion to always have with you. Cheers!
Get the Ricoh GRIII, same sensor size, same focal length at F/2.8 but this Ricoh actually fits in a jeanspocket!
The xpro3 and 35 f2 is perfect combo. Weather sealed and compact. The newer WR lenses include if 18, 23, 33 and 56 are quite large comparatively. The range finder body begs for a discreet and more compact esthetics.
If they ever update this lens Im buying it. I have this version and is one of my favourite lenses ever! Love the square hood it comes with
lol finally, 18 f2 is a gem that works great with latest fuji camera, fast and smooth, loving it for past 2 years
Been using the 18mm as an everyday lens and loving it. Had it for awhile before actually using and wished I used it sooner!
Love my XPro 1-3 cameras. The Fujinon lenses are the Way to go, but when needed, The 18 1.4 and the 56 1.2 rocks! Tip: get a vented lens hood , it keeps the length short and works well with the OVF and looks very cool
Fuji Xpro's are better used with the F2 primes - 18/23/35/50 (and the 35mm 1.4 & 16mm 2.8 ).
Use the Nikon Zfc with the 26mm f2.8 lens or the kit lens 16-50mm. You will love it.
got the X Pro 2 and love it. mostly use the ttartisan 35mm f1.8 AF and XF 18-55mm but also the ttartisan 27mm f2.8 af which makes it very light and compact
I just picked up this lens to try and see how it works with the zone method. I even tried the auto focus and it worked better than expected. There’s a lot of firmware updates so I would check which firmware it has first.
It’s not the sharpest lens but it’s not horrible!
I used to own this lens but traded it out for the 16f2.8 last year for all the benefits of being a new design, but I still wish they would update the 18f2. It has been over a decade. C'mon Fujifilm, I'd buy it day 1.
I just got the 16f2.8 and it’s making me consider selling the 18f2. Do you miss this lens? Is there a reason to own both? Is there a scenario where the 18 would come through where the 16f2.8 would fall short? TIA for any thoughts shared.
@@darrylbrian nope. After getting the 16f2.8 the 18f2 is basically junk to me. 😂
I thought I'd miss the one stop of light, but I don't. By the time that it matters it's so extreme that it's going to be a grainy shot anyway. I'd rather have a high quality lens 99% of the time than the 1 more stop 1% of the time I'd use it. Absolutely selling the now decade old 18f2 is the right choice for me. 😎
@@-grey awesome! Thanks for the advice. It’s exactly what I needed to hear!
Funny. I have put my xe4 in my back pocket with my 27mm on it.
That lens is hard to come by these days! Heard it’s awesome!
Same here! Xe2 with the 27 is my edc now. I also use it at weddings as a dedicated B&W
@@RanftEvan didn’t they release a WR version not so long ago?
Got a nice used copy for really cheap, it was not an easy lens to get a hold of. Seems to be out of stock for the new version everywhere and the older version isn't discounted much still. The lack of aperture ring is fine with the x-e3 but with the x-e4 with one less dial I'd think it's necessary. This lens is glued to my camera and with me everyday. The only thing I don't love is the odd flaring from bright lights just outside frame even with the hood.
@@Autumn-Foxxo yeah the flaring is a lot but also has opened up some new creative opportunities i've enjoyed.
The 27mm OG is my favourite lens by far. Very underrated.
Why the OG one over the WR one?
Go out and have a good time with it, you have a gem in your hands now, I envy you!!!!! Show us what you shot!
I love the 18mm f2 pancake(ish) lens. One of my first primes when I had an xt2
I mostly use the 18f2 on my xpro2. love it.
fuji need to update that 18 f2, it's great for its time but needs a bit of an update. Also the x-pro 4 needs to have a larger viewfinder so we can get framelines for the 18mm
I pair this with my xt30 for everyday stuff! If they made a mkii version in the “fujicron” form factor (better autofocus and weather sealed) I’d buy that in a heartbeat.
The 27mm is even better, imo. The 18mm unfortunately is pretty sub-par optically
I mean if you didn't want a big lens why did you get the 16mm F1.4? They had a smaller F2.8 version. If size is what matters most for that camera seems like you should have started with that lens.
LOL, it’s intended to take photos. And a classic single lens shooting would be to use a 35 or 50mm
Thats my favorite lens with the xpro and XE cameras.
I had an xpro 3 and sometimes I miss it, but overall I just always felt like I was faking it. Had a TINY glass viewfinder and that was it. I couldn’t ever fight the feeling that I was just imitating a Leica and the experience was nowhere near the same. Don’t get me wrong the XP3 is light, compact, and takes some great photos. Just the model itself always left me feeling like I was faking the funk
Try the new fuji x mount native voightlander pancake 27mm and soon to be released 18mm…
Let’s see some street and portrait photos
Guess it's time to start pounding those streets, get some street pov with the xpro3
You should try the 27mm f2.8, just as small and great optics. The second version is even WR rated.
It works best with all of the “fujicron” lenses. My favorite is the 35 f/2. I have and use the 18 f/2 but it is a rather optically poor lens
The 18 is a dick, high time we get a new one. And one in F2 too. Then a new 60mm as well.
Xpro 3 is only a pocket camera if you slide it in your pocket without a lens. Try x100f or v
I have the 18mm f2 and an XE-1 ... It's my cheapo X100
If thin is your thing fuji makes the xm-fl lense. Its basically the thickness of a lens cap. Not gonna win any optical performance awards but it IS very thin and officially a fuji.
Try the Voigtlander 35/1.2 X mount - then you'll discover the XP3's real purpose....
This ^^^ Fuji spelled it out with that back screen but people have trouble reading 😅
Just get 7artisan 35 f1.2 for 100ish usd. Perfect street photography lens and best value of money.
the 18 feels too plasticy, i hate it.
keen to try the fuji 35 f1.4 or the voigtlaender 40 f1.2, but for now im happy using the zeiss plannar 50 f1.4.
Why not the 27 mm 2.8?
I’m surprised, you love the Leica Q series right? This is supposed to be used the same way. Your making it into a big X100V. Not what it’s intended for like your saying
Super underrated lens! Love it soo much!
I'll pass at dangling something that cost that much out of a pocket. I'll stick with my E-P5 with 20mm f/1.7 II. If it breaks not the end of the world and lack of weather sealing is whatever, neither is this 18mm or the 27mm from Fuji. Needs an external EVF if you want it, but I usually don't use it.
The 18mm was labelled the worst of the worst Fuji lenses. Just check out Theoria Apophasis videos on the best and worst Fuji lenses.
The 18mm is an orphan and sells for cheap second hand because its not very good. Kind of how the Sony 16mm 2.8 was junk too.
Waaaa 😢 I can’t hang my expensive XPro3 out of my back pocket??? WTH? 🤣💀 It was never intended to be a “pocketable” camera. Peak Design Everyday 3L or carry a P&S.
Black and White street photography
It becomes like the x100v
The x pro is not a pocket camera lol. It’s more of a sling camera. It’s a small camera u can just have on a sling casually and the best part is ppl arnt intimidated by it.
Xpro4 with an updated f2 line where you?!
no built in flash, no flash photography, that s biggest deal breaker to me
Couldn't get on with this lens I'm afraid, large distortion and not very sharp at F2
yeah it needs an update from fujifilm imo, well overdue
I had my hand on heads when I realised that smaller lens made the camera make sense
Rangefinder should has full frame
What does "rangerfinder style camera" means?
This isn’t pocket friendly. Doesn’t matter what lens you put on it.
Bro what kind of jeans are those. Not kidding
Even with the 18mm, it’s still not as pocketable as the gr
That shits huge bro. I’d rather spend the money on an A7R II if I’m going that big.
“Fujifilm sent me”
Is that a silver, or dura silver body??
Too bad the lcd ribbon is defective
You can use that lens to take real street photography photos
Who's pockets?
Pocket camera? Not at all.
nah, but the ideal size for a neck strap
Fujifilm 18mm f2 can get great shots. Not so good for video.
Who are you kidding? No one in there right mind would pocket that camera that way 🤦🏽♂️
please don't put it on your back pocket like that lmao.... thats my dream camera right there!
The Xpro is anything but a pocket camera
Please, don’t run with the camera in your pocket 🤪😱
everyone looking for any alternative except to save up for a Leica Q2
Her: Instagram and Only Fans
Him: stocks and crypto
Rents unpaid for four months.
What could POSSIBLY go wrong here!
18mm f2 is soooooo not the vibe.
I love the way how these reviews work
I don't love this camera until I tried with something a company sent me
Well you are reviewing a product shouldn't you be doing this with companies intervention so in other words if you aren't sending me free shit I don't like your product
so basically turning it into an x100v? Lol
Buy a bag
Red dot on red dot dude. It’s not that hard
Not having the right lens is your fault. Any of the “Fujicrons” are compact and light and the there’s the pancake lens. Get real!
So you like it because they paid you...
pocket camera lol :D
Pocket friendly, 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is a joke right. That is not a pocket camera for any pocket except a large coat. A joke for views
Fuji is poor man’s Leica 😂
Your just lazy
