Creating Your Video Settings on a FUJIFILM Camera

[@kenwalker8403]

Thanks Francis. Your tutorial was just what I needed. I've seen loads of reviews where people tell you what specs each camera has, but they don't tell you how best to use them. I recently bought an X-T30 and I'm pretty much up to speed on the photography side of things, now I feel a lot more confident in using the camera for video.

[@fujiguys]

Thank you for the comment Ken! We're glad you enjoyed the video !

[@aparnagiridharan2825]

Same here too

[@timrodierides]

Thanks Francis - just upgraded from an X-T2 to an X-T4 and am shooting a lot more video, this was really helpful to watch.

[@fujiguys]

Glad I could help Tim ! Enjoy your new X-T4 !

[@MelissaScheetz]

Super helpful! I am spending my Saturday night learning all about the video features and this tutorial just saved me many hours...on to the fun. Much appreciated.

excellent, thank you

[@beatrizbreves3922]

Any suggestion for the best compatible gimbal for the XT5? I am hoping one that can focus and start stop recording at least.

[@jzagaja]

When 3D LUT in camera for own "film simulations" on F-log?

[@djhidirakyuz]

Thanks for very helpful video. Greetings from Turkey.

[@fujiguys]

Glad it was helpful! Thank you for the comment !

[@agatharecently]

Thank you. May I know which gimbal is that? Thanks

[@cj64films]

Really appreciate this! I’ve been thinking of buying an XT4

[@sagardigitallab]

Great Video, very much helpful indeed. Could you name which gimbal is compatible for xt-4 ?

[@equisetuminc]

I’d like to know which one is compatible with an xt3 - especially with focus option

[@bvmproductiesbe]

Weebill S

[@jaydels8937]

Great video, thank you for putting it together. I learned a few things. I have a XT3 and discovered I don't have access to the IQ options when in movie mode. Everything is grayed out for me. What am I missing?

[@eliohadchiti5456]

Thank you Francis your videos are very clear and helpful i am new to fuji xt4 so happy of the image quality its amazing and i know the potential of the camera so far i know 20%. More of your videos help me learn more. Just a small questions how can i lock my focus on a moving subject or still one ? watch ton of video no one say anything about it. It will be helpful if u can help

[@fujiguys]

Thank you for the kind words! if you want to track a moving subject, set the camera to AF-C and keep it withing the AF box. if you are shooting something that is still I would suggest setting the AF mode to AF-S. For people enable Face/Eye detection with the left or right eye for the best result. Hope that helps ! Thank you for the comment !

[@sharbel9624]

thank you

[@nh6405]

Thank you for the explaining everything well. I love watching your tutorials. When I try to go to "Movie Mode" it is gray and skips that part. How can I change this?

[@koolkutz7]

Very useful and practical advice thanks :-)

[@jameldecasseres8638]

Great video! I would love to purchase a Fuji X hat. You have any links to share?

[@linadecaseleycarloss5838]

I am considering this camera for self produced music videos (with a fair bit of low light) - could you possibly do a low light tutorial with video examples of the low light video quality & suitable settings for this environment with fast moving footage??

[@DaytonaImages]

Great stuff - thank you.

[@josecolon8143]

I would love to see this same video but for the XH2s! I wonder why no one dares to do it, all I’ve seen are, well let’s call those videos extremely weak. Please could you do it for the XH2s? 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@sophievautour8573]

What would be the equivalent of 1080p for fuji x pro3?

[@ronleech1245]

Really useful helped me get a basic understanding of operation. One observation if you could just go a little more slowly when switching through the various menu settings, would have saved me a lot of time going backwards and forwards. But really excellent. Now I need to learn more about all the shooting types 4K etc.

[@fujiguys]

Thank you for the feedback Ron !

[@PabloMelgozaN]

Hi excelent video, I would like to know what equipment you used to record this tutorial, camera and lenses

[@fujiguys]

Hi Pablo, We used the X-T3 with the XF23mmF2, Thank you for the comment !

[@PabloMelgozaN]

@@fujiguys Thanks Francis ¡¡¡ Could you recommend what settings I could use to adjust the autofocus of my XT3. All the time my camera is jumping between objects or in situations where there are several people in the scene, it jumps from face to face even though I previously selected a particular face. I love the texture and colors of fuji but autofocus has been a headache for me. It may be im doing something wrong.

[@NBPT428]

Grea starter video about video. A little frustrating because I have an X-T3 and several of your settings didn't't correspond to the X-T3 but it was a great start. The more I learn about the Fuji camera the more I realize the Menu system needs a major overhaul. (Touch screen doesn't work in menu mode/video setting are not all in the video menu tab, etc.) Great cameras but other brands have much better menu interface. That's my little beef.

[@fujiguys]

Thank you for the feedback !

[@StarOasis26]

Thanks, very helpful. Trying to see if my XT2 has the white balance lock feature. Checking out and hopefully it does, if not if they came out with an update for it that would be cool.

[@fujiguys]

Hi thank you for the comment and feeback !

[@remektekmedia6641]

What's the point of having a choice of Zebras left and right, but still only having a single percentage value? On my Canon, I can set different levels for the 2 Zebras so I can set one to indicate clipping and the other for flesh tone. It would be good if Fuji did the same.

[@sorlindquist]

What about headphones for fuji xt4 to monitor audio? Any suitable usb-adapters since there is no input on the camera?

[@delecko5859]

Hey Francis I enjoy your tutorial is fantastic but however I have a question how do I get to my AF / MF setting when it is not highlighted?

[@OPStudiosOnline]

Thank you so much but camera doesn't give me access to movie mode. its a Fuji X-T3

[@Elimnio]

thanks for the great video! On my X-S10, I am not able to set a function button to AWB-L as mentioned at11:20? However I do have the option to set it to on/off switch as explained at 11:52, can you help me here?

[@fujiguys]

Hi, you can assign it to a FN button by pressing Disp. Back button for 2 seconds. then you can assign it to the button of your choice. Hope that helps ! Thank you for the comment

[@sophievautour8573]

how do you mean by low focus peaking being more accurate. id high peaking different?

[@muadgil]

Thanks a lot for that great, in-depth video oriented review. I own a x-t10 and I'd like to upgrade my camera to take the plunge in th e filmmaking world. I have one question though.. With more recent Fuji cameras (X-S10 in mind), does the focus peaking is still On, WHILE filming? On my X-T10, it disappears as soon as I hiy the Rec button, I quite miss it to check focus while the video is recording, if my framing changes etc...

[@Station9.75]

Can you use a custom recipe in video or are those just for JPGs?

[@rodneytopor1846]

Thanks. If the MIC LEVEL ADJUSTMENT is set to MANUAL on an X-T5, is it possible to adjust the level *while recording*, and if so how? Thanks.

[@alaska3dhomevirtualtours86]

Thanks, very useful tutorial for sure. For some reason in video mode the framerate is greyed out on my Xt3, how do I fix that?

Thank you for the comment ! Are you on the Full HD high speed recording ?

[@mahmoudatashi9384]

Thank you so much Francis. Very informative tutorial.I use X T4 I had an issue with the ISO in the video mode. I can't lower the ISO ´lower than 640. Is there any way to fix it?

[@44untrue69]

hi. my "movie mode" at the top of the menu is greyed out. it wont let me change the resolution. how do i fix this?

[@ovidijuspocius6336]

not bad video quality from xt3, a little bit choppy but I'm satisfied with this camera.

[@kishoreiglesias3318]

Bro xt - 200 video please

[@akushon_kamen]

i want auto iso limitation on movie mode and also i want memory button feature on my xt4! fuji tries to be different with those aethestic looks and dial buttons, but its bad 'different". switching from sony and panasonic, this camera lack common features so much!

[@sophievautour8573]

i could not find file format on my fuji xpro3. is it maybe called Full HD?

[@lyradestrella9831]

Hi, there. I need help in setting my Fuji XT100 to video shoot choirs singing. The camera has very limited settings but I hope you could help me choose the best setting for the abovementioned scenario. Thank you very much for the help.

[@tonnib]

Hello Francis :) I wonder if you might know, how to turn on the option (in AF-S mode) to give you a green square (focus point - area focus) when it is focused during recording video on XT4? Before the recording is it works (in photo mode and video mode), but not during recording, the focus square goes green when something is sharp, but this does not happen during recording (it focuses, but does not give a green sign that it is focused) In the XT3 it is in the default settings, both video recording and photography. To put it briefly: how to turn option that Focus is confirmed with green box during recording video on XT4? Thank you in advance and and sorry for the long comment :)

[@azizmehdi101]

On my Movie Settings I have only 4 pages as against 8 showing in your video. I have the Fuji XT30 purchased in Dubai.

[@fujiguys]

Hi Aziz, the camera used in this video is the X-T4, the X-T30 only has 4 pages of video menu. Thank you for your comment

[@valantisjpg]

What SD cards for Fuji video & photo though?!

[@leocorbella9877]

Very useful tutorial, Francis. I've two questions: on xt4 there's no way to set shutter lower than fps? In this video tutorial did you use some filter on your lens? Thanks

[@TroupeGoal]

question - I’m using iMovie to edit my videos and apart from ProRes the highest bitrate it will export at is 66.667mbps. Do I get any benefit from shooting at higher rates than that if my video software won’t export at such a high rate?

[@squibsfloopowder]

hey there, just wondering if you know if the fujifilm sx1o has all i video compression setting? was so excited about it untill i relised it might only offer the option of just long go. thank you !

[@fujiguys]

Hi, the X-S10 offers Long GOP only. Thank you for the comment !

[@azizmehdi101]

When do we use the 25 and 50 fps feature? I understand that these are PAL settings.

[@fujiguys]

Hi Aziz, yes these are for PAL tv standards

[@Honkus]

What are the AF-C settings you find work best for talking head with some product holds in front of camera? Or do you have different settings for different scenarios?

[@fujiguys]

Hi Michael, We use face and eye detection (1 eye selected) with AF speed at -1 and tracking to +1. I would suggest you test different settings and find what works best for you ! Thank you for the comment !

[@Sjaubi-qf6wd]

I do not understand the Histogram and Zebra the histogram data when in the middle like it is supposed to be the screen is full of zebra stripes . when you get rid of the zebra stripes with the iso or shutter speed settings or even a lens filter then all the data in the histogram is to the left the shadows or the blacks are crushed .... I don't get it???

[@megamanmusik]

How are you able to shoot 3840 x 2160? I have the GFX 100 but can’t seem to get that

[@shreysingh731]

Hello Francis... I've been using sony and Fuji. I'll make it short and get straight to the question. There is this Exposer mode shooting in Sony Cameras. What I know of it is, the camera records videos in aperture priority mode. Is there anything like that that can happen in Fuji xt200?

[@shreysingh731]

I'm really struggling with it, and I really don't want to switch from my Fuji. If you could please sort my this concern, it would really be a lot helpful. Big time help it would be. :)

[@shanesuralik1597]

What if I can’t access movie mode??

[@Kilt_Camera_and_Carry]

How about fixing the WebCam app so my XT30 can work with it?

[@fujiguys]

Hi Brian, Thank you for the feedback.

[@bhamerlik]

Thanks for the video! My X-S10 has a slightly different menu, but I could still figure out the settings. However, one question that remained unanswered is using the filming button while in custom recipe mode. So, I have my custom recipe that I like, saved under C1 (let's say) and if I start filming while in this mode, the camera will record everything under these settings. Fine. But how do I change the video recording for C1? I have autofocus activated which makes the AF crazy, I have eye detection activated whichis making troubles as well. These are turned off in the video mode though. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

[@bhamerlik]

Hi, I used to have an X-T10 and there were not many settings I could actually change. The dedicated button started recording in whichever recipe I had and AF was constantly on, driving me crazy and destroying my videos. I tried to get an answer to changing settings, but didn't get much help, so I am curious if anyone can advise here. The X-T4 I have now is very different and I'm much happier with it, although I'm still figuring out how to make good videos with it :c) Thank you, Francis, for this quick video guide.

[@nerwin]

I don't understand what I'm doing wrong haha. I see others use 23.98p and usually around 1/48th or 1/60th and their talking head videos are smooth. But when I use those settings, its really choppy and slow. I set it to 59.94p at 1/60th and nice and smooth, looks natural to me. But with the 23.98p, the entire video even if its just stationary footage, it looks like its skipping and its headache inducing. Any help would be much appreciated it!! Thank you!

[@artursvodnevs8086]

How to enable Manual controls in video mode? Shutter speed, ISO, Aperture? I've read the instruction, watched a lot of videos, tried everything, but video mode always stays on AUTO...

[@fujiguys]

it depends on the camera but it's either on the SS dial / aperture ring on the lens or the front / rear comment dial. Hope that helps! Thanks for the comment

[@lmemes7969]

How get 100 iso on Fujifilm tx200

[@johnrflinn]

I couldn't get my audio to work until I selected reset to default settings. The obvious settings for microphone volume etc did nothing to fix this hidden problem.

[@sjmedia_official]

I use 170mb/s Sandisk SD Card, I record 200mbs video on it, does this matter, as it does not give me any errors?

[@jasonlai8728]

Can X-S10 take videos well? What lens is best way to take DIY videos?🤣

[@fujiguys]

Yes it can ! All lenses can be used but if you bought it as a kit with a 16-80mm you got a great piece of kit to start making some videos ! Thank you for the comment Jason!

[@MrRaychard123]

Sx10 can only shoot 4k 30fps? Any update to have it 60fps?

[@fujiguys]

Yes it can do 4K up to 30 fps. We don't don't about an update for 4K 60fps. Thank you for the comment !

[@AlikaAlitheiA]

04:36 you don’t need to record at “400 Megabits” if you are selecting “ALL intra” that’s something you made up on the spot right there 😅

[@AlikaAlitheiA]

Long Group Of Frames is a compression where only the pixels that change are re-written. So if you set a static shot on a tripod, and only have a person talking, it is great, for action scenes or shaken footage it is not so efficient. But it has nothing to do with the BITRATE

[@denizkendirci]

if the motion blur is the same when we double the shutter speed, then why does it matter if we choose 24 fps, instead of 60 fps. if i can shoot 60fps-1/120sec shutter and get the same motion blur with 24fps-1/48sec shutter, then how come 24 fps is still "more cinematic". won't they be exactly the same, except 60fps-1/120sec will give you more data while editing before rendering?

[@fujiguys]

Having less frames creates a bigger gap between each frames captured so less ''fluid'', that plus slow shutter speed creates the blur and ''Look''. 60fps captures every tiny movements and super fluid and faster shutter speed makes the image sharper. Hope that helps. Thank you for the comment
