You So crazy lol😅

Great images!! Like you said, the best camera is the one you have with you. For me right now, it's the SL2-S with 35 f2 SL Summicron.

Enjoy that week off bro. Don’t rush the videos. “The red dot is like a target”, but I shop at Target 🤔 😂 sorry cheesy dad joke

Just don't drop it, even from as little as 2 feet as I did. The lens just shattered. Never again.

Maan.... I have been thinking about trading my XT3 along with a Sigma, and TTArtisan lens, for an Olympus EM1 mkIII and the 12-40 f2.8 Pro lens for a travel rig. I am currently using a Nikon Zf for my daily shooter, but the price of m43 lenses as a tremendous draw... Now, I am actually rethinking the trade. What to do, what to do.... 🤔

Man, you are spot on. I shoot everything from a no name 4x5 field camera that I have no idea who made it, to a Nikon Zf! I have a load of film cameras, 35mm, 645, 6x6, TLRs a Fuji X Pro1, and an XT3. I use them all, and get great results with each of them. I might also add, I get killer shots from my iPhone 15 too. It is absolutely the photographer! If your skills are there, you can make great images with a Holga!! Film, digital, wet plate... doesn't matter.

All great camera, thank you for sharing!

PGYTECH's padding, both interior dividers and exterior, feel very weak. I purchased PGYTECH over Peak Design based on several reviews, but now I am regretting it. The exterior (i.e. the top and sides) basically has no padding at all, just the material. And the interior origami dividers are way too thin and hard.

I've got this in my cart and about to submit the order!

Hey brother great video !! Any way you can share the tweaks u did on reggies portra to get rid of the oranges, Thanks

I've made crisp ISO 25600 with my ZF something none of my 3 Fujifilm camera can do. The files actually looks more clean than my Fujifilm at ISO 3200. Plus the MF is miles ahead with the ZF and my voigtlander 40mm 1.2 would be similar to a 27mm f0.8 on a Fujifilm in terms of depth of field. I still love my Fujifilm gear and use it for work and travels but it’s miles away from the ZF

I’ve been a Fujifilm camera owner for around twelve years now and currently own an X100VI and an X-T5. I upgraded from the X100V to the VI but I have regretted it as I prefer the V. Yes, it’s got IBIS and a 40mp sensor as does the X-T5 but the V is definitely better in many ways. I’ve wanted the Q3 since it was launched and had been on the waiting list too a year back, but right at had spent a fortune on a MacBook Pro, one became available. I had to say thank you but sorry to that purchase. Now, the Q3 is much easier to find in my favourite store in Glasgow so I’m now thinking about selling all the Fujifilm kit and buying the Q3. It would be the only camera I would own then (apart from the one in my mobile phone) so I’m seriously thinking about buying it. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Of course it's relevant. Any camera that works for your style of photography is. I use the GR3 and Nikon d700. The Gr3 is by far my favorite camera I've ever owned and I've owned quite a few. Love it

Is a new one coming out?

Just the video I was looking for

I’m liking the sooc jpg. I’d probably stick to sooc if I were to get one. Is this the hdf model? Not sure what I would want tested lol

Create more Buy LESS!!!

Very nice images, but I’m not getting my X-T4 wet😂

I enjoyed your video and i agree with what you're saying BUT i think (especially for travel) you left out probably the best brand (i said it again: for travel). In my humble opinion anyone looking for a travel camera system must consider Olympus - om system. I ve used Nikon, Canon, Sony in the past. For travel photography (especially if you hike snowshoing, Sea kayaking etc) Olympus is the best system because of the size - weight ( especially size and weight of the lenses) and the best weather sealing in the industry. The 12-40 2.8 or the 12-100 mm f4 lenses are the best choises for travel. Also the tiny Panasonic 9 mm 1.7 is a fantastic lens if someone looking for something wider. The week spot of the system is the night photography but it's not terrible. You can work around the small size of the sensor with a good fast prime lens ( like Olympus 17 mm 1.2). Happy new year and greetings from Greece!

Be careful. I took mine on a rainy trip to Alaska last summer. It was fine for the first few days, but eventually water got inside the viewfinder. It was still useable, but it needed an expensive repair service when I got back home. Water damage isn’t covered by the warranty.

Glad to see the XT-5 survived lol Can't wait to see from the Panama trip next year. Have you considered renting the zoom lens for the trip?

I own fairly complete Nikon, Fuji, Olympus and Panasonic systems as well as a Fuji GSW690. Fuji has been the most unreliable with 3 out of 3 bodies needing expensive repairs. Love my Olympus EM1 MkIII and Panasonic G9 and their extraordinary lenses. But the one camera that always delivers is the Nikon D850 with a Tamron 24-70 GII. I just printed a 1.2 meter wide harness racing print and it is fantastic. The Tamron 70-200GII is glued to the other D850 body. Holidays? The Fuji XT2 with kit lens- 18-55 and 14mm f2.8. Gliding into semi retirement I’ll probably keep the G9 and the PanaLeica lenses. I’ve been a pro for 52 years.

z 8 tops it all

I prefer Lumix, mainly because I'm someone who needs the best performance in dim lighting. The only major downside I remember is that the lens' selection isn't quite as great, at least if the budge isn't there. All cameras that aren't strictly Cine cameras got at least some feature missing in them. For example, no RAW, no stabilization in 4k, no open gate, etc. As far as I know, if RAW capture was more standard for stills cameras, we wouldn't need to worry about colors much, if any. Modern camera decisions aren't simple. There are all of these intricacies or aspects to a camera that need to be considered, so buying a perfect camera is a complex kind of thing. If only I could invest in a proper Cine camera apart from my current photo camera, it would be neat. The S5 II is worth a great value at a relatively affordable price, and that's important if you need to invest much into the lens.

Vader made a cameo!!!

Dang KZbin blocked my comment 💀

wtf. why no GFX mention when it comes to fuji?

No hate towards 35mm from me, i just don’t like anything I take with it. Have you updated the firmware on the Q3 yet?

Xt5 looks pretty ugly to me but still a good camera.

Great views around the ring of Kerry all right. You should try Connemara next time your back.... even better in my opinion. Nice shots.

Thanks, I shoot professionally with two XH2s. 25 years with canon 12 years with Nikon and since two years ago with fuji. Hugs from Portugal

I've always had Canons (rebel, 5D, 6D, 1D, R6) since 2008. I picked them because of the easy ergonomics and menus :-).

One of the best videos about camera subject, thanks for sharing. How is Fuji in low light conditions? I am retiring in few months and need a toy to play with. Mostly landscape photography since old people don't like to be photographed. And some videos as well. I narrowed down to Fuji xs20 and Nikon z6 ii but would prefer compact system. I own Sony RX100 v now. My lenses would be kit zoom and one fast prime for indoor.

ONLY shoot in Manual = missed shots, when the scene and lighting changes rapidly. Some wear their 'Manual ONLY', 'I shoot RAW'(sic) badges like bumper stickers of honour. Pros shoot whatever works in the given situation - including Jpeg and the automated modes.

I shoot slightly differently. I set my shutter speed and aperture manually and then use the exposure compensation with auto ISO enabled (matrix metering). That works quicker in most situations. If you go from a bright scene to a dark scene, the metering will move you to the higher ISO automatically and then you can fine tune it with the exposure compensation - which only controls ISO. It's all personal preference - whatever works best for you!

Full auto is the way to go 💀

I’ve shot Nikon for years in full manual too. Recently purchase a Fuji and watched heaps of youtube videos with people using aperature priority. I tried it for a few months and found I wasnt getting the results I wanted and switched back to full manual and loving it again. Not hard to do a couple quck test shots on a new scene and dial in once you set your all good and easy enough to make minor tweaks on the go as you shoot just keep an eye on you pics as u shoot.

😂 the booger! Congrats on this content milestone. Keep up the great content.

Yellow side....you're not "white balancing" your camera? you're calling yourself a professional? You're not going to "get it" playing around with the bodies in the store. Useless video

Congrats on the growth in 1 year. Wishing you lots of success for you and the channel. Appreciate the shoutout. You lost me at turn off the PS5 😂

I envy people in the South USA who travel to Scandinavia, The Netherlands or France. Ive been to those places and they are not that.

"I just got back from Amsterdam..." (shows a photo from Rotterdam ;)) But hey, you've been to my country so I can't complain (much ;)).

I'm pretty sure it has 299 af points

Agree with you on the sony. Everything on paper is technically perfect for the Sony, focusing is #1 in the industry, perfectly sharp images, its great. but it just lacks character/soul, images came out technically perfect but no interest. bodys are functional but it dosent inspire me to want to shoot with them

I shot Nikon DSLR's from the D40 to D7200, then moved to Fuji last year with the X-S10 and I love it! I'm just a hobbyist now and primarily shoot landscape, so the AF isn't an issue for me... single point AF-S for life haha

Ive been into hobby photography in and out for roughly 8 years. I dont get what you people find in fuji. Its AF is a joke,its quality is a joke and i could mimic any film recipe with adobe soft. But i orefer to have a separate dedicated film camera not to fake but to actually make film photos. I still keep xt2 for occasions when i want ti make a "real.photographer impression" to gen z but overall i cant think of any scenarior in which my xt2 would beat my sony a7r3. With all due respect.

Thank you for your service salute

Nikon Z6! Started with the Nikon D3000, then D7000, then D600. After a while, first jump into mirrorless with the Sony a6300, then a7rii, loved it and used it for a while. Then I got a Fuji X-T2, loved it too but missed full frame and I water damaged inside, I fixed it but I went back to Nikon with the Z6! I love it! Next will be a Zf or Z6iii for sure! (Sorry Canon, I just hate the ergonomics, tried it in a store)

Thank you, great presntation. I have full frame, M43 and point and shoot. Full frame, Nikon D850 and FC with tons of lenses, M43 use Lumix G9 and a range of lenses. Point and shoot use Lumix. Bought another famous brand point and shoot for my late wife,we did not like th colours, back to Lumix. Started photography around 1963 with Pentax, Leica, Hassleblad and Nikon. (Still have the Hasselblad and unfortunately (crying) my M3 single stroke with f2 Sumicron was stolen. (Still crying....). If I was to take out either a full frame of APC Fujifil instead of the Lumix M43, oh, just compare the size and weight .. Why not just stick to M43, well, it is not the resolution, as both have enough for most of what I would want, but, full frame allows better focal separion, commanly refered to as boca. I just love to blurr out backround when applicable. Actually, on film, the medium format 6x6 Hasselbald just blows everything away. So that is my take on it and am stcking to it, just dont shootm as I hurt easily. Have fun with photgraphy instead!

Love the Fuji as well. I have not used tge XT5 …I like the PSAM on other models XS20 or X-H2. I like the weight, size and price but the images are excellent and so creative with its film simulations. I traveled to destinations far from home and Fuji never disappoints. I also shoot with a Sony RX 100 M7 as my back up. A true do it all compact with impressive capabilities
