*Couple point of clarification* I mentioned the X-T3 can shoot up to 20 FPS bursts. But that's on the electronic shutter, and in the example, I was shooting in the 11 FPS mechanically. I just wanted to make sure I didn't confuse anyone. Also, I mentioned the RP loses dual pixel auto in video, but that's only in 4k.
In this video, I run through a detailed comparison of the Canon EOS RP and the FUJI X-T3 and try to answer the question, which should you buy?

Shadow recovery: In my experience, canon has ALWAYS had terrible shadow recovery. The banding was pretty awful and ruined a handful of shots. With Fuji, the noise more closely resembles film grain so you can still get usable shots if they're underexposed Lens weight: I absolutely do not miss lugging heavy EF lenses up to the top of mountains. I can now literally fit fuji lenses in my pocket. Aesthetics: I once heard you say "Never discount the way a camera makes you feel" and I subscribe to that philosophy. I feel a camera is more than just a tool. It's an extension of me. Plus at the price point, why not have it look nice? But more importantly, I don't think the manual controls are strictly about the aesthetics. I feel like they just simplify your workflow not having to click in and out of menus to change the aperture, shutter speed, etc.. Everything is right there in front of me instead of hiding in a menu

Great comparison review Andrew!! Ive always had the "ITCH" of buying a full frame mirrorless camera in addition to my fuji system but after watching your excellent review i think ill invest in a new fuji camera body instead! Keep up your excellent review's!! O love watching them here in th UK.

[@eddyblanco7210]

The Fujifilm X-T3 was one of the best pickups and additions to my gear for my photography business. Plus it's video shooting capabilities are teaching me more and more as I go along. The best part; being a photographer for the better 27 years, majority of it in film photography in my earlier years. So the film simulation is an amazing blend of old school nostalgia with new tech.

[@urdaddy5153]

[@salarycat]

Hey Andrew, thanks a lot for the video. For comparing low light performance, perhaps a good indicator is shooting at identical shutter speed and aperture and then comparing the noise and shadow recovery. That would make it a more real life test than forcing both of them to underexpose, since the full frame might not have the same necessity to do that.

[@solvm1652]

Great info about the low lighting recoverability between both cameras! I didn’t know that. Great vid. Xt3 FTW. I still love the canon colors and look. However, I haven’t touched my canon gear since I got my xt3 last year.

My Fuji 56mm f1.2 can render some incredibly thin depth of field. It's got bokeh for days as well. Definitely more than I need. In my experience the difference in bokeh/DOF is just not important. I just love the overall user experience of Fuji cameras. They just work how I always wanted a camera to work.

[@exquisitewidget4227]

Both cameras are currently going for $999 us on amazon. I think either way you're getting amazing value. Sensor size wasn't a huge concern for me considering my 50mm 1.8 on my canon rebel body was plenty shallow in terms of DOF, so I went with the X-T3 + the Fringer canon ef adapter. The adapter so far has given me the same AF speed as when I used my canon lenses on the 200d natively, even though that camera had Dual Pixel AF just like this RP. I've been super happy with it so far and I can't wait to start doing more shoots with it in the future. Thanks for the awesome comparison! Remember y'all, no matter the sensor size, choose the camera that YOU will enjoy using :)

From an rp owner. Please dont get the rp, only if you like to be disappointed, or dont have any expectations from your camera video and even photo specs and usability, basically everything! I hope to sell it and go on the fuji train with xt3

[@PK-ql5en]

Very interesting and fair comparison. As a photographer I find the flip out screen useful for architecture when shooting at odd angles but, to my mind, that would be the only real life advantage of Canon RP. It seems that here, even the dynamic range is better on the newer apsc sensor. Canon should really invest in some newer solutions in that area. As a Canon user I am constantly tempted by other brands now because of that.

[@XHItube]

Thank you very much, great video as usual! :) I have one question with respect to the topic of FF vs APSC: People tend to focus on low ISO, DR, DOF, but what I am wondering, especially when shooting portraits, is how much does lens compression affect the shot? I feel that is really where the big difference in looks come from. E.g., I think there was a stark difference in looks between the two shots you showed, not that I think either was bad, but I felt the difference was less in the DOF and more in the way his face was projected. Is that something you guys could make a video about?

Great comparison. As far as photography what are your thoughts about Canon EOS R versus Fuji XT3?

[@PissBoys]

In my experience, the only good reason to choose the Canon over the Fuji is if you'd already bought into the EOS DSLR ecosystem, and invested heavily in lenses; you really can't beat the amount of lenses Canon has available, both first and third party. Otherwise the Fuji has always felt like a nicer camera to use, looks better, and just all around is a better camera. The AF on the EOS isn't particularly enough to make me choose it over the X-T3, but your mileage may vary.

[@user-yn5zc8kd3e]

thank you for your video. i know both cameras pretty well.. without a doubt you can brighten up the shadows on the fuji better, but what should not be forgotten is the smaller reserve for the highlights on the fuji. i almost always took pictures with -2/3 f-stops or even more on my fuji to be a bit more confident with the highlights, which is uncomfortable because all photos are a bit dark before postprocessing. with the rp you have more reserve for the highlights and therefore you have to brighten less. you have to work with the characteristics of the camera. i like the handling and the menu navigation much better on the rp than on the fujis, but it is also just my backup camera to the r5, as my only camera i would probably use something else.

[@mauistevebear]

First I applaud you for this type of comparison! A Canon FF vs. a Fuji APS-C...wow. I am a Fuji X-T3 user who came from Nikon FF (D810)., and will just say, I do not miss ANYTHING about the D810! (Fantastic camera, a real Nikon jewel). In regards to depth of field, I have to say that Fuji 16mm f1.4 and the 56mm f1.2 are the FF depth of field myth buster! That's the Equiv. of an FF f2.1 and f1.8 which most agree are pretty darn fast and can provide a depth of field and bokeh acceptable to any FF user, after all,is said, it won't be the camera...it'll be the photographer. There are cameras suited for whatever kind of shooter you are, so I would suggest individual research into what would suit your needs. Fuji suits my needs. To those who have the Canon, you have a fantastic camera if it suits your needs.

[@pennyfan13]

it is quiet an interesting comparison, for X-T3 everything tick the boxes, but an APSC sensro, and in the other hand RP has the basic functions, nothing more, with a FF sensor. Your video showed perfect example for breaking the FF myth that general consumers have (or general lies from marketing).

Great video. Apples and oranges here though. Pro APS-C v entry level FF. Different users. Both are great systems with benefits for different users. If you have Fuji XT-3 then why change pro features for entry level. Price here is maybe not the best reason to match up both cameras if you are deciding on a system and need / want pro features or non pro features. I think Canon shooters are now thankful that they can upgrade to FF and stay with the system they know and have lenses for or cheap second hand lens options (50mm F1.8). Fuji shooters can stay happy with their choice of great gear XT-3. Both produce great results. BTW let's hope you don't under expose too often. ;) Again great video.

With Fuji, there seems to be more of an eco-system of less expensive manual focus lens to play with (ie: buy, then play with). I suppose many are available for Canon, but when I owned Canon, I was never aware of the possibility. Of course, I owned Canon DSLR, not mirrorless, and so no focus peaking. So... hey... this is why I don't no my own comparison videos! Oh, and I own the X-T30. Slightly slower than the X-T3 at full frame rate, I believe, not WR, one card slot, differences in high end video that can be recorded in the camera, and smaller. But, a good bit cheaper. Same sensor, and processor. And the FX18-55mm f2.8-4 R OIS kit lens is actually pretty nice for a kit lens. This was particularly important to me as I was changing lines altogether and so needed to replace all lens. Well, I didn't want to deal with an EOS adapter at any rate. And for depth of field, I have my KamLan 50mm f1.1 :-)

My first real camera was the Canon M50, which I loved but unfortunately it was stolen about a year after having it… so I decided to give Fujifilm a try. I have had my Fuji for over a year now and on Black Friday pulled the trigger on Canon refurb RP for only $599… Fuji Pros 1. Beautiful JPEG simulations 2. Store custom JPEG settings 3. Smaller bodies and lenses (in some cases, the RP and 50mm is just as small). 4. In the case of X-S10, great slow motion and video options. 5. Lenses are cheaper than Canon, however my RF 50mm was $80 Canon refurb, and my 35mm 1.8 was only $299 canon refurb, cheaper than most Fuji lenses 6. Overall a cooler looking camera. Makes you want to pick it up. 7. Metal lenses and marked aperture rings. Canon Pros 1. The autofocus system besides being more reliable, is overall just so much easier to use without needing to constantly switch modes or move a focus point around with a joystick - that was my biggest frustration with Fuji. 2. The Canon RPs viewfinder is much better than the X-S10, much more comfortable to use. 3. The Canon remote app works so much better, and is actually usable for self portrait or group shots. 4. RF glass is insanely crisp and detailed, the clarity is unreal. 5. Better ergonomics on Canon. 6. Full frame with all the pros involved. 7. Menu system is much easier to understand. 8. Better and more intuitive button layout. 9. Face/eye detect is much more reliable and accurate. With Fuji it was constantly finding faces in bushes and rocks, or not quite getting focus even when it said it was in focus. I feel like overall it feels like Canon produces a tool that is extremely good at what it does, while the Fuji takes a different route and puts more “soul” into their cameras. I do find it funny to consider Canon has been making cameras for nearly 100 years and used to make Fuji “looking” cameras back in the day. Canon has a very long and cool history. I thought I’d want to sell my Fuji immediately after switching but think I want to hold onto both… they’re just fun for different reasons. Hope this helps!

[@danev1969]

Thanks for the review. I'd like to mention that most all vloggers when comparing gear have a bit of bias on using cameras for vlogging (IMO). Most viewers on the other hand are photographers and rarely use the video functions built into their camera (although that is probably changing). I think this tendency of vloggers reviewing gear (who else would be doing it anyway) is having an affect on manufacturers paying more attention on the video aspects and not quite as much on still photography. Still, most all new cameras today far exceed anything that was available even two years ago. And like the move from film to digital and then (D)SLR to Mirrorless the paradigm is always on the move. Two years ago not one of my fellow 150+ photography club members used video, now it is about 20%.

Sold the XT3 and went back to Canon with the RP. The autofocus is just so much more reliable on the RP in video than the XT3. Sure manual focus is an option, but I want it just to work. And sure, in som cases the DR was better in the XT3, but being able to recover in that way is not going to happen in real world shooting. If im shooting a scene with extreme DR I would have double exposed the image on both the Fuji or the Canon. One real flaw is that Lightroom never ever handles the file of the XT3 as good as Canon files, theres always that wormy stressy look to it. But the main thing is, Canon glass is really good and especially the new RF lenses which in my opinion, hands down, blows the Fuji out of the water. But I do sometimes miss the ability to strip down the Fuji without grip, smack on the 27mm pancake (which is a really underated lens) and have the ability to put it in the pocket of my winter jacket. The RP does not fit ;)

[@karlwalters3763]

Is the Canon 90D much better than the RP? because I'm trying to decide between the 90D and Fuji XT3, which would you recommend? I'll get it mainly for travel and landscape photography, but might as well take some videos and pictures of myself.

[@sl2608]

At high ISOs the RP has no noise. 90d has a lot of noise at high ISOs.

[@gateCodeKC]

i had the xt2 and noticed the same thing about the shadows. it's easy to recover. still torn between xt3 and a7iii hahaha...

[@simonkelic7786]

In the end the lens is to me the most important tool in order to create a picture. Maybe the IBIS is one of the best arguments for this Canon System itself. The rest of this comparison is really determined by the lenses you can get even though I´ve decided for the xt-3 which makes me pretty unhappy from time to time due to this small range of lenses with that certain "je ne sais quoi " look. As a camera itself the fuji really is as professional as a Camera at this price point can be.

[@kevvy22]

Which photo belonged to which camera?

[@grumblekin]

I have both and love them. With Fuji, I get tank build quality and sharpness galore. With Canon, I get access to 30+ years of great lenses, FF depth, and light weight coupled with ease of use. Both take incredible photos if you have the skill to use them. I use them both along with my Sony gear.

[@calypso_228]

Canon RP 24-105 4f + 35rf 1.8 FUJIFILM XT 3 18-55 2.8 + 16 2.8 mm Camera I need for fashion , club , concert photos . In order to keep the ISO high , there was a good dynamic range . Photos that would be sharp. And the video recorded perfectly . Which of the two options will you choose ?

[@xxxe8912]

Sold the XT3 for RP, back to a professional & reliable grade camera system, cheers^^

[@boyetocampo6380]

For the bang for the buck, I'll choose the xt3. Canon just kept on crippling their cameras

[@rayshinglin4144]

Xt-3 right now on sale for 1199.

[@jasonwilkinson7079]

As an ex canon wedding shooter and a now FujiFilm X travel shooter. I would take the FujiFilm XT3 all day long. That is because that is the best tool for the job / situations that I shoot right now. An interesting thing I found out on Friday at a Wex (was calumet) open day here in the UK. was that I compared a GFX R to the Canon Eos R RAW files which I shot with. In my opinion the Canon files were significantly much cleaner than the GFX R files. Also Looking back to my last canon cameras files (5d Mark iii).Comparing to my XT3. Again the Canon files were a lot cleaner. However the weight factor alone puts me off going back to canon. I shot the 28-70 F2.0 and the 85 F1.2 on Friday on the eosr and the images were absolutely stunning. So to sum this up.... The Canon’s image Quality is better than the FujiFilm. FujiFilm has a lighter package with better AF. FujiFilm is also the camera you don’t mind taking with you everywhere you go. And that is why I would take the FujiFilm out of the 2.

[@Famous_Flavours]

I have the Eos R and like u mentioned the weight of the lenses becomes an issue when travelling so I’ve been looking for a more light weight setup so maybe the XT-3 is a good fit. You mentioned the canon images are cleaner, how noticeable is this ?

[@InertiaEffect]

Cant go wrong with either in the modern camera world.

[@xxxe8912]

story is different if you invest to a camera system... Fuji camera/lens is good if you can buy them origin from Japan factory, however it's impossible. You pay for a second grade product with Fuji!!!

[@kian8382]

Apart from the price and pixel count, these two bodies can not be more different from each other, it's the choice you'd have to make between the best APS-C and not the best full frame, that said if I'm choosing, I'd probably skip image quality comparisons and go straight into features and lenses.

[@AndrewGoodCamera]

Agreed

[@Yupthereitism]

That depth of field was very noticeable

[@momchilyordanov8190]

I'm convinced X-T3 is the better camera of the two. And also convinced a photographer who knows what they are doing can produce pro results with either of these. And no, one card slot will not stop me using the RP :) In my country 6D was one of the most popular models among pros for years. This RP is pretty much it, but mirrorless.

[@kenjiyamamoto796]

its better to invest in canon, rather than fuji,. that RF lenses is a game changer, when the time canon release a pro body with IBIS + RF IS + DIGITAL IS, that will be insane,.

[@Tomoldchannel]

I think the sensor of the x-t3 is better isn't it (dynamic range etc) + video capabilities are much higher. I feel like x-t3 and now 4 are higher end aps-c cameras whereas the Rp is an entry level full frame( it might be better Than the x-t3 in low light a bit but that's it) isn't it?

[@zippywalker6406]

What lens did you use for the first DOF test? 35mm?

[@AndrewGoodCamera]

50mm 1.4 shot at f2 and the Fuji 35mm f2

[@zippywalker6406]

@@AndrewGoodCamera You do realize the DOF difference is coming from the wider 35 mm and not the actual size of the sensor, right?

[@AndrewGoodCamera]

Hi Bruce. The 35mm lens on the APS-C Fuji device is equivalent to about 50mm in full frame terms. So they are the same angle of view. Let me know if you have any other questions.

[@kiwipics]

I'm afraid It'd be the Canon RP for me, as I have a range of existing L glass, and 3rd party EF mount lenses for use on the adaptor. I currently do a similar thing with an M mount body. I love the idea of having a more up to date full frame camera (I still have a 5D mk1), to go with my crop sensor bodies. Although I'm not a great fan of mirrorless (and although most of my Instagram shots are from a Canon M10), I realise that I'll have to embrace mirrorless soon. It's a bit like giving up Windows XP or 7 for Windows 10 on my PC and laptop. ...... I'll probably switch to mirrorless before going over to Windows 10.

[@bjure8111]

I had the Fuji but switched back to Canon. Its like coming home where everything just works. And the Fuji with the Fringer adapter + Canon EF lens isnt anywhere near the performance in auto focus in the RP with EF adapter.

[@swaewithme]

Does your EF 50mm f/1.4 EVER QUIT HUNTING? Mine does not on my RP. For some reason even in single point autofocus. It will hunt even without half pressing my shutter button.

[@AndrewGoodCamera]

Have you updated your firmware?

[@rbvan]

You may have SERVO AF enabled somehow. Look for it in the menu and turn it off. SERVO AF should only be used in movie mode when continually needing to focus.

[@ThePenselpatah]

this week i get xt3.. the third body in my case.. xt10 xt20 ready to xt3 😊

[@logtothebase2]

Increasingly the Nikon Z6 looks like the imperfect compromise at a somewhat elivated price point. I don't get on with the handling of Sony. I think the handling of the Cannon wins it for me through. Much as I like Fuji's eligant implementation of classic controls.

[@bobk4438]

I like them both.

[@Mihazero]

Just small correction ... Canon EOS was introduced in 1987 and all lenses from 1987 till today are compatible with EOS RP which makes it 34 years not 20 years. I personally own one from 1991 and it works just like any lens made for Canon.

[@xMotivationFix]

Weird, i get around 650 images out of my XE3, but i am very spartan when it comes to handling and use.

[@Bonjurro]

Yeah I have an xt2/3 and xh1 and I always get 600-800 images when I visit my niece & nephew and still have battery left.

[@avjaxon]

Depends on a lens. In my experience it's about 500 with a 23/2, 350 with 90/2. Surprisingly, manual lenses are somehow closer to the latter. Maybe that's because they require more "screen time" for focusing. X-E3.

[@creatioexnihilo4125]

What about the problem with RAW Files from Fuji in Lightroom? That is a big Problem, or isn't?

[@AndrewGoodCamera]

I think it's a bit of a problem. But it just depends on how you shoot and how you print. It's a bit of a complicated subject. But, in general, I think most Fuji users will just be happier if they use Capture 1

[@creatioexnihilo4125]

Denae & Andrew i agree and I like the Fuji a lot. But I like lightroom and I don't wanna learn capture one because I don't have the time. It's sad, because of that fact I won't buy a Fuji.

[@AndrewGoodCamera]

I still use Lighroom plenty. The only time I don't is in really really high ISO situations. But what I do is that I ensure the sharpness dial is set to 0 (which is not default in LR, so you need to change it in your import settings). Then if I feel a need to sharpen something (which really is only when I print), I'll sharpen the JPG in photoshop after exporting from LR. This solves any issues I have. But 99% of the time, LR is totally fine. At least for me. In short, I wouldn't let it stop you from getting into Fuji unless you shoot in crazy high ISOs regularly.

[@simonwhitten2051]

1000+ shots per battery XT3 week in week out. What are folks doing to get under 300?

[@Orlandoech1]

Exactly what I was wondering. I got 700 the other day in Boost mode.... lol.

[@q3aki]

same here, i get around 700shots - but! I'm working only on my EVF + swicthed on only while looking.

[@losac6136]

The Canon system will make sense only if you want to put your hand deep in your pocket and buy the superior - yet - expensive RF L glass (or have plenty of EF slr lenses) .Like RF 16-35 f2.8 , 24-70 f2.8 ,70-200 f 2.8, 50 f1.2 L, 85 f1.2 or fast 1.8/2.0 zooms that will probably announced in the future.I don't think there's any better FF glass out there at that price range. My 2 cents as a Fuji user...

[@slove7141]

How about a similar comparison with the Nikon Z5.

[@DmitryBrodsky007]

I've owned both. One thing that immediately stands out on RP at least to me is comfortable grip. Fuji XT line just does not have a pronounced grip, and the extra grip which I always get, only covers half of the area. RP grip is just so much more comfortable. Love articulating display. Love the 35 1.8 RF lens, so small and 1:2 Macro. Phenomenal Jpegs out of RP. But that's pretty much it. ADOBE does not support native camera profiles for Canon RP, and adobe profiles for RP are god-awful. Autofocus was not good (I sold my RP before the latest 1.3 Firmware, which, I hear fixes things).

[@AndrewGoodCamera]

Yes. The AF was awful and I'm really glad I was delayed in this review and was able to get that update before publishing that

[@netanelk6127]

What extra grip?
