Focus Modes of the Fujifilm X-T3

Tutorial and Review of the focus modes of the Fujifilm X-T3 camera. The mirrorless camera's focus mode settings that are explained also apply to the Fujifilm X-T2 as well.
Link to the official Fujifilm Focus Mode site: fujifilm-x.com/af/en/ (NOTE: Looks like this website is down and/or offline. Not sure why they took it down)
Full info on the AF-C Custom Settings: fujifilm-x.com/af/en/af_guide...
AF-C Custom Settings:
TRACKING SENSITIVITY
This parameter determines how long the camera waits to switch focus when an object enters the focus area behind or in front of the current subject. The higher the value, the longer the camera will wait.
SPEED TRACKING SENSITIVITY
This parameter determines how sensitive the tracking system is to changes in subject velocity. The higher the value, the greater the precision with which the system attempts to respond to sudden movement.
ZONE AREA SWITCHING
This parameter determines the focus area given priority in zone AF.
CENTER: Zone AF assigns priority to subjects in the center of the zone.
AUTO: The camera locks focus on the subject at the center of the zone and then switches focus areas as necessary to track it.
FRONT: Zone AF assigns priority to the subjects closest to the camera.

@@Sam1986E Hey Sam, I'd LOVE to do a review on the camera. I'd have to sell my Fuji bodies, cause I don't have the cash to get it and they never send me anything to test unfortunately. Maybe one day if my channel gets a bit bigger they can add me to the list and send a test copy to review and test out.

[@ryliling]

I’m watching this 3 years late and this was so helpful for me. I’m learning to use my late husband’s cameras and I’m just thankful there are videos like yours so that I can use my husband’s well-loved xt3s. I hope you’ve gotten better at managing the stress of posting on KZbin. I appreciate your time and energy.

[@AlainLafleche1]

Really, I cannot find a greatest video that explain the Focus modes of the X-T3 like you did. Thanks

[@whoisgeez]

This video may be old, by my experience with you as a "camera mentor" is new. I bought an XT4 because of your videos, and it has launched me into a new level of videography. I also have reasons to celebrate in my personal life, so the champagne was a nice surprise. You are an amazing creator and teacher, Chris. I hope your channel is successful for years to come!

[@KingcazTV]

Wow. Never expected this video to make me feel emotional. I am a fairly recent follower of your videos and what made me gravitate to your page specifically was just the effort and heart you put in your videos. Not only are you just a charming speaker but you also have a way of explaining things that kinda hooks me every time giving me wow moments. Seeing this video really made me feel like I got to you know you better and the way you did it is just so profound.

I have a wedding coming up, and now I'm scrambling to get a handle on all the stuff I now need to use for event photography. This video came in clutch

I just found you - today! I was very impressed with your presentation. It was very much like a classroom teacher. You were very well organized, stated the skill you were going be presenting, gave a list of what would be covered, stayed on topic, made great analogies, and demonstrated what the viewer needed to know in a way that could be understood by beginners using the Fuji XT3. Your personality and rapport was just the right amount to keep people interested.

[@pal2tech]

[@keithsr.]

Hello , I hope you see this comment. I've been taking photos for a LONG time. However I've never owned a really nice camera. I have created some amazing shots over the years with the equipment I had. It's been quite a few years since using anything but the pro settings on my Samsung Galaxy phone. My last camera was unfortunately taken from my truck . Not a big loss monetarily but emotionally. I've decided to save up for a Fuji xt3 after researching for a month. Thanks to KZbin, I found your phenomenal channel. Every day I find myself watching all your tutorial videos on the Fuji as well as other great informative videos. I wanted you to know that I can totally relate to what you shared with us at the end of this video. You are one of my new favorite people on KZbin. Your videos are ALWAYS informative and just as important, entertaining. I've already learned so much more about photography in a month than I have in my life. I feel very confident I will be able to navigate the xt3 much easier after watching your videos. For this I thank you good sir. Keep up the great work, we who watch you, respect and appreciate all you have done and continue to do. Wish me luck finding a silver xt3 in 2022. Take care, Keith 📷

[@anncampbell4300]

Thanks for your effort and courage. I used an Olympus om2 film camera years ago and decided to get back into photography. I just bought a x-t3 and have been pretty overwhelmed trying to use and learn about it , and your simplicity of explanation is very much what I need. Thanks so much; really looking forward to more of your videos!

Recently got my XT-30 and your explanation is helping me a lot. Great content!

[@mariodennisVA]

I switched my camera system from Nikon (after many years) to Fujifilm and bought an X-T4 largely based on your videos and recommendations. I'm still discovering your older videos like this one and trying to keep up with your new releases. I have an entire library in Evernote devoted primarily to Pal2tech. So, anytime you have doubts, please know there are many of us silent consumers who look forward to your engaging, helpful productions. And your personal touch is a bonus. 😉

Great to have you back, Don't feel pressured to give us content every week because what you do give us in your videos is that great personality and something different that keeps me and i'm sure others watching and learning from your in depth content. I've learnt a lot from this video as i'm still trying to get to grips with the xt3 focusing system, enjoy the bubbly and here's to the next bottle at 100k👍🥂

After seeing many recent videos, I saw this old one. As always, honest, clear, simple, didactic videos. Thank you for sharing this videos with us. In the last part you also show who you really are behind the camera, and that’s very rare. Congratulations!Don’t forget, we are listening! Best wishes!

I like your teaching methods. It's really helping me to learn this camera. I went from an x-t2 to an x-t4 because of you. Wow, what a difference. Thanks a bunch.

I'm new to the fuji system and I've been locked on your tutorials trying to get up to speed. You have saved me a great deal of time trying to figuring out all the customizations and button dials. Thanks for sharing.
