if you watch fujifilm's official interview video of the xe-4 developer (although it is in japanese), he says that the xe-4 is for very minor professional photographers who wanted their cameras to be as simple as possible. That's why many features of the xe-3 (focus switch button, hand grip, customizable buttons, etc) has gone. he said "the xe-4 is unlike many reviwers say, it is a camera that was made based on the needs of the photographers who has solid shooting style and therefore didn't need too much on their camera." yet, i also think it is a good camera for everyday use :)
the developer said "the s-10 is more like an entry fujifilm camera and the xe-4 is on the very opoosite side, meaning because there is less features, it is difficult to use."
OMG you finally solved my problem! I couldn't changed my aperture in movie mode - it was always on auto / shutter priority. I just needed to switch off movie optimized control - how obvious (not). I was going nuts all day! So thanks a 349570 times!!!!!!
Great video bro! My super light combo: X-E4 + XF-16mm F/2.8 + 7Artisans 35mm f/1.2 II. Weight of my kit bag(+phone/micro speaker/spare battery) = 1.1 kg. Sweet!
I love the XF 27 mark I, although it irritates me that it sucks up dust like a vacuum cleaner. Same as the lens on the Ricoh GRIII. That's why I can't wait for the WR version to go on sale 😁
Haha I will keep it for a while :) And yes that is my new apartment and home office. So future videos will look like this. But I think I can make it look better I am still working on it!
Thanks for this video, this camera looks so pretty. I have the x-t2 I'm happy with that but I would like to have something compact like this camera. I just wonder where did you buy the foam windshield for your rode mic??
Hi Samuel, is it possible to program button(s) for faster switch between photo and movie mode, or just start recording, than using the drive button and menu operations ? Thanks.
I think the X-S10 is also for the "ordinary" film/photoshooter as well but with a different style body and screen function for people to choose. nice follow up review of the camera one does not really need 10bit correct? and example for better low light the mbps makes a bigger difference? (just double triple checking this info XD)
I really want the X-S10 now as my Dad-camera haha. For video it has everything (except two card slots) I need. 10-Bit is only useful when you want to heavily color grade your footage or you plan on filming stuff for TV broadcasting. For youtube 8_bit is totally fine and yes when you record at a high mbps it will be better for noise in low light. But you might still get some banding but I haven't noticed that in any of my X-H1 footage so I wouldn't be too concerned.
do you suggest getting the X-E4 or X-T30 as a first Fujifilm camera (coming from and old Canon DSLR)? both with the 18-55mm lens. it will be used mostly for family/kids/travel stills and I know of the newer AF in the X-E4 which the X-T30 may or may not receive...
Both would be great for family, kids, travel! I have never used the X-T30 but I think you will be happy with either. They are two different types of camera (viewfinder on the side with X-E4 and more DSLR style with the X-T30). I would go for whatever camera you feel more drawned to use based on your gut feeling : ) specs are very similar.
Hey man thank you so much for this super helpful Video. I have just one further question. The data transfer via sd card to my PC is super slow. I dont have this problem with my other videocameras allthough the data has the same volume. Anyone has a idea what may be the problem?
Hey, welches Objektiv benutzt du für den Zoom-Moove in 5:15 min? Und JA, die Fuji hat keine optische Stabilisierung aber hat sie denn eine Digitale? Kein Video spricht da drüber, und bei Fuji ist diese aber grossartig und absolut zu gebrauchen!
Das muss da 18-55mm gewesen sein! Und die X-E4 hat leider keine digitale Stabilisierung. Es gibt allerdings einen Menüpunkt "IS MODE" wo man wahrscheinlich unterschiedliche Arten der Stabiliserung auswählen kann. Bei mir ist es aber immer ausgegraut (ist das ein Wort?) auch mit Obektiven die IS haben. Kann also nicht genau sagen ob da noch was drin steckt wie Digitaler IS.
Ah ich hab noch mal nachgeschaut und das ist nur eine option für den Foto Modus. Man kann zwischen continous oder nur "shooting only" wählen. Also wann der IS des Objektives greift.
@@SamuelStreetlife Sehr schade, weil genau das war die Hoffnung. Bei der X-T200 is das schon voll ausreichend für stabileres VIdeo, wenn man aus dem Stand einen Schwenk macht. Leider ist aber die Videofunktion ansich grottig. Warum versteht nur der "Produkt-Manager", da müsste Fuji sich gar nicht so schlecht machen. Und glaube bei der X-T30 gab es das auch und X-S10? Klar mit kleinen Crop aber stört nicht, ich gewöhne mich ja eher an die Objektive via Optik.
Damn, that uncorrected footage was matrix green. Can you get this corrected look in camera with Eterna? It would be cool to cut out all the colour correction time.
My WB wasn't correct so it looked greenish. I think if you darken the shadows you can get a closer look to my corrected version but I prefer to decide how much contrast I want in post.
Yes it does if you record for longer than 30.40 minutes you can get a overheat warning. I had the X-E4 shut off once after I filmed 3x 20 minute takes. With little breaks inbetween. But it can work as a B-Cam if you don't need to record long takes.
@@SamuelStreetlife thx for the answer. Am actually looking for second angle cam for streaming, so that might be an problem. So I usually do not actually hit "record", but it still should run long in standby. Xt3 handles that perfectly
@@Elizabeth_Postol I see! I can't tell you if that is going to be a problem with the X-E4 but I think it will. In your position I would look for a second hand X-H1. That's what I use for streaming and it never overheats. AF is decent too. And it would be cheaper than a X-E4. The X-H1 also comes with an attachment that fixes HDMI cables in place.
23mm F2 is a great lens for the X-E4 very fast and quiet. But remember that you dont have any stabilization when you record video with this lens. But you can still use it on a tripod. And the 23mm F2 has good autofocus.
If you want to shoot a lot of video and don't want to or cannot use stabilized lenses then yes, IBIS would be important. If you take mostly photos then it doesnt matter so much.
What are the main differences between XS10 and XE4? Am a beginner and this will be my first camera. I will use it mainly for photography and some videos and vlogs.. Which is a better option..?
Go for xs10 if you are only going to buy a body without the 27mm mk2 then go xs10. If you live in usa there’s currently a promo code for b&h than gives you $100 off xs10 and you can use their payboo card so they will waive the tax. It means that you will only need to pay a total of $900 for brand new xs10. This makes the xs10 with better grip and specs only $50 more than an xe4. If you also opt out for xe4 and you find yourself needing a grip cos of its brick shape, you will need to shell out another $160 usd on top of $849 for body for that thumb grip and hand grip and this totals to $1009 usd. Just my two cents. Personally, I’ve been waiting for the 27mm mk2 and needing a small street camera to compliment my xt3’s sensor so I went for xe4+27mm bundle. If it’s just a camera body then xs10 with $100 off with no tax at b&h is a no brainer.
I thing the xs10 will suit u better. The xs10 is a vlogger oriented camera. Easy to use, small, it has 5-axis in-body image stabilization, external mic and headphone sockets, better grip.
Es una vergüenza y me parece una falta total de ética profesional que no se puedan ver las streetcriiques en tu canal , usas las fotos que mandamos para hacer tus vídeos y tenemos que pagar. Muy lamentable.

I like your “Dad Camera” idea, but the only really cool Dad Cams are those massive 10kg shoulder VHS cams from the late 80’s 💪😂
Haha yes! Times have changed😂
Finally you will use your phone for that moments, believe me, 😊
@@jesusescudero9721 hehe yes I can see that but my phones camera starts up super slowly so it will have to be another camera :D

Hi
Artistan for Nikon via adapter right? Can't find the one for fuji
I love the XF 27 mark I, although it irritates me that it sucks up dust like a vacuum cleaner. Same as the lens on the Ricoh GRIII. That's why I can't wait for the WR version to go on sale 😁
Yup! Mine is jammed
Thanks for the reply fella. I ended up with the x100 f which I'd owned previously but stupidly sold. It feels amazing to have one again .
Rad new studio 🥳
Nice summary, I think the video settings will work on every fuji camera like X-H1 and later!
Super review! Thanks! Is there a silent movie control in the movie menu - so you can set everything for video on the touchscreen?
lovin the long hair samuel!! i think you should keep it long 😅👌 also nice review!! 💯💯
also loving the new studio!! is this where you're gonna shoot all your at-home videos now?! 👌
Haha I will keep it for a while :) And yes that is my new apartment and home office. So future videos will look like this. But I think I can make it look better I am still working on it!
I think Fuji will make the video settings even better over time, they always do that 😏
Thanks for this video, this camera looks so pretty. I have the x-t2 I'm happy with that but I would like to have something compact like this camera. I just wonder where did you buy the foam windshield for your rode mic??
I was kind of wondering that too🤣
It’s such a good dad-cam. No shame.
Daddy Benj approved! 😁
Hi Samuel, is it possible to program button(s) for faster switch between photo and movie mode, or just start recording, than using the drive button and menu operations ? Thanks.
Hi Samuel, great video! Seems to be a small package everyday camera
One question: what lens & lens hood is that on your xe4 shown at 1:18?
That is the 23mm F2 and a Haoge Squarehood :)
@@SamuelStreetlife thanks man!

Hi BTW what strap are you using the X-E4 with?
Does this camera have display markers like Sony's so you can compose the aspect ratio of your videos?
Hey man thank you so much for this super helpful Video.
I have just one further question. The data transfer via sd card to my PC is super slow. I dont have this problem with my other videocameras allthough the data has the same volume.
Anyone has a idea what may be the problem?
Can you help me, why I cannot change flim simulation in video mode
Where did you get the mic cover for your videomicro? I only have the dead cat and would like the same one you have.
I found it on ebay. I was searching for "rode video micro wind protection foam" or something like that in it showed up.
@@SamuelStreetlife Nice one cheers Sam! 👍🏼
You will spend more on x-s10 battery.. you need 4 to 5 battery for xs10

@@SamuelStreetlife Your footage always looks super clean and beautiful. Maybe they should let you have a whirl at a new film simulation, haha.
Do you think this camera along with the 35f2 can fit snugly inside a moment sling bag?
I have never seen the sling bag from moment so I am not sure. But it should be a really small package with the 35mm F2.
Does it overheat if shooting long in 4k? I'm looking for a smaller B cam for my x-t3
Yes it does if you record for longer than 30.40 minutes you can get a overheat warning. I had the X-E4 shut off once after I filmed 3x 20 minute takes. With little breaks inbetween. But it can work as a B-Cam if you don't need to record long takes.

@@SamuelStreetlife Thank you! This is really a big help for me 😊
is that camera support tethering ?
I can't find any info on that sorry.
Is even in video mode the photometry greyed out when the face/eyes detection is turned on?
Yes it is.
@@SamuelStreetlife So kind. Thanks.
Hi! This caméra doesnt have stabilisation. Is it a problem ?
If you want to shoot a lot of video and don't want to or cannot use stabilized lenses then yes, IBIS would be important. If you take mostly photos then it doesnt matter so much.
Hi Samuel, and with a external stabilizator ? With one for a small camara ?..
@@jean-philippelaurent2298 That should probably help a lot! I'm sure it will be very stable then.

The ribbon cable is a deal breaker.
