Fujifilm X-T4 Review! - Is it a Pro Video Camera?

[@Steinthedude]

Me watching this while owning a X-T4 for almost a year just to get some validation that it is indeed a very good camera

[@MalakAsad-th5jn]

Hey , I'm considering buying this camera for content creation and videography, has anyone had any experience with it? Is it worth the investment? Would love to hear your thoughts and opinions before making a decision!

[@ErbVideoProductions]

Absolutely love my X-T4, the footage straight out of camera is just so fun to work with.

[@KGTv123]

What an insane looking video. You’ve inspired me to continue using my x-t4. These shots are unreal

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

Glad to hear that brother!

[@umarnaq]

Footage looks insane! Brilliant work.

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

Thanks dude!

[@BrownStudios]

The only thing holding me back from getting this and going with the Sony a6600 is the video clip limit and the expense of Fujifilm lenses and the camera itself. The Sony looks fantastic, but the colors on the XT4 are so vibrant and natural and I can’t tell if that’s owed to the color grading done in editing or the camera itself. If anyone could provide some advice, I’d appreciate it.

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

The colors of the Fujifilm is defeneitly much better. With the Fujifilm it's easier to get grade and get good results.

[@longjohn2404]

Yup, I think Fujifilm may have the most gorgeous color science of any system. Even better than Canon. It absolutely smokes the Sony (one of the okay-ish/worst color science)

[@lena___]

this is why i’m not going to wait for xt-5 which is supposed to be out this year, i’m hoping there won’t be a limit anymore! the colors on fuji is way way better imo

[@OUCGN]

I am sorry but these cameras are not comparable.

[@professionalpotato4764]

@@lena___ X-T5 probably not this year. But X-H2 is due in May. Probably worth waiting for. A Fujifilm tech staff told me there's a chance of ProRes raw support. The stacked sensor variant could be global shutter, or near global like the Z9.

[@pelosmeusolhos938]

the colors, the sharpness, the smooth movements, What a superb video sr!! Congrats!

[@Roman413]

Your production skills are insane bro. I can't believe some of the shots. So crispy it looked like CGI 😳

I own one! Your video is of a higher artistic quality, I’m very impressed. Keep going.

[@nivmaniphoto]

A coherent & comprehensive review, with video production akin to big budget channels. Massive props to you!

The best Video I watched recently

Crystal clear footage, congrats 👏 👏 👏

[@MichaelZi]

For me X-T4 its a tool, great tool, with some practice it brings amazing effect

[@kirankumar_chepala]

Great video. Seriously! The colors and the edit and grading were great! 0:19 What was the Lights that blue and yellow (cool & warm) did lights you use

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

It's a combination of cheap corner lights and nanlite pavotube. Some cool tones I achieved in grading

[@jared_quackenbush]

Great vid bro! We only use the X-T4 at my video agency! We love it!

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

Thanks dude! Love your content

[@cracoviaPG]

is it true,that the fuji lenses are nor so good for video? which lenses do you prefere for thr xt4 for filming?

[@joiekoo3217]

Nicely done with the footages and color grading! 👍

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

Thank you so much!!

[@Mrlloydvideos]

I wonder if the ibis and ois from xt4 fujifilm is enough to show rap music video ?

[@justpixelating]

Hey there, I absolutely loved the video but I need some help. I am getting the Fujifilm X-T4 with 16-55 f/2.8 and Sony A7iii with Sigma 28-70 f/2.8 at the same price. I shoot professional photos and now I want to get into videos so I need a camera that is good for photos and will help in making better videos, and I don't want to fall in APS-C vs full frame thing. Just need a camera that can help me get started. Thank you.

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

It comes down to your priorities. If you are fine with all the drawbacks I mentioned in this video, well the Fujifilm would be a great choice. but just note that with enough color grading knowledge and some extra effort, Sony a7iii could achieve some amazing results. If its for my workflow, I would go for Sony a7iii, cuz I really need to have reliable auto focus and good image stabilization. But your needs may vary. Hope this helped🙂

[@alexwaikc]

Yes raw footage please!

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

Comin up, gotta clear some space in Google Drive🤣

[@JS-pm6pd]

I do a lot of handheld shooting. How good/bad is it when the ibis is off? Is it usable?

[@nabilhanz4276]

Raw footage please bro! By the way ,awesome as always .

[@re2Core]

Favorite Camera of all time! 🌱

[@MariusCicu]

however, I am undecided between Fujifilm XT-4, Sony a6600 and Panasonic s5. Which one do you think is better from your point of view? From a device like this I want excellent photos but also good video to post on youtube.

[@iron_recluse]

Great footage and review! 👍🏼

[@BadBeetsTCG]

Blew out a lot of highlight info. Is there a better way to shoot and protect the highlights?

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

May I know which part exactly you're talking about.

[@lamliwei-ih5en]

Does this fuji x-t4 comes with mike input jack?

[@professionalpotato4764]

Did you use autofocus for the car shots? I've been considering the 16-55 f/2.8, but many people say it is not good for manual focus.

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

Yes used auto focus all the way

[@daaddyo1249]

Good upgrade from the a6400 if my only focus is video? Hate giving clients 4k videos where the slo mo looks like shit because it's just 1080p upscale.

[@Birdinforest11]

What is the name of filter used in this video?

[@IgnacioGlezCllo]

What lens is mounted to the XT4, please!?

[@founderofself]

Hi. What is the pod/ holder called u use at 3.20 for camera? Thankss

[@Kini_Wolfgang]

This is beautiful!

[@adriennem3168]

Fantastic video. Great music and editing too. Could you suggest a cheaper camera worth getting to use with a Gimbal then? Something that can do 60fps and slow mo?

[@PhilipDSouza]

Great review. Great video. Seriously! The colours and the edit and grading were great! What was the other lens besides the 16 - 80 mm ? and which ND Filter did you use?

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

The one you saw in the shot is the K&F Concept ND, but I didn't use its footage much since it was adding a weird yellow tint.

[@onlybrebor]

Man nice video! Can you do video tutorial about your video settings? I see many videos on youtube about xt4 and many of them with unsmooth movements camera, but your movements - are sick. Nice videos. Subscribed

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

Thank you so much!! But sadly I have returned the camera back to Fujifilm. I had limited time with both of the cameras. But the settings on the camera was completely set at default. Most of the work is done in grading.

[@frankfavale3872]

Nice job on the review.

[@Dan_from_Rome_to_Japan]

Hello, this is one of the most recent videos about the XT4 I found, and I was wondering if the camera was updated to the latest firmware when you shot this video, as for what I understood, the IBIS issue was improved with the update. Didn't become the best IBIS on the market, but at least they solved its behaviour when trying tiny handheld camera movements. Let me know!

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

I believe that it has updated. They might have improved but it's not completely gone. I would just love the Ibis to look natural that would be enough.

[@HikingWithCooper]

The footage looks fine and the IBIS is pretty cool in certain circumstances. I'm trying to figure out why this costs more than a bmpcc 4k. First and foremost, this cam has no RAW video. Or even Prores. H.265 is a terrible codec to edit since it's so heavily compressed. Then there is the UI. This one is straight out of the '90s. The BM UI is so intuitive and well-organized. The touch screen is as responsive as an iphone screen. Also, the screen is huge. Of all the reviews I've watched, I haven't seen anything about bluetooth for external camera control. Nor about in-body xlr. Nor HDMI out for that matter but I'm sure it's there. Actually on a deeper dive it appears that there is no video out(?!?!) OK, the sensor size on this is larger than not only the bm 4k (by a long shot) but even the 6k (barely) so big points to the Fuji there. I'm editing a shoot with this cam next month is the only reason I'm looking at it. Not bashing the cam, just trying to figure out why this cam over a bm and to familiarize myself with its strengths and weaknesses. It seems like a legit photography camera (better than bm I would argue) but for video it seems kind of like a toy or like video capture was slapped on to boost sales a little. So I guess it boils down to: what about this cam vs a bm would be a silver lining to someone editing its video?

[@OnlyCitrus]

You could have googled before writing the essay.

[@HikingWithCooper]

@@OnlyCitrus actually, I already have but thank you for trying to play along.

I used the lenses that I mentioned in the video.

[@nshatish]

Great color. Can you share the link for the ND filter used in this video

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

It's a cheap ND filter, I couldn't remember what brand it is. But I only use it for a few shots.

amazing color!! how did you do it or what LUT did you apply, I need this to live! 💯Thanks you💯

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

Thanks Daniel, I worked really hard to achieve this look and you're the first to comment on it🙏. For the interior shots, most of the heavy lifting is done with the lighting itslef and I graded everything manually in post. And for some shots I used the KODAK 2383 film emulation. It is available for free in Resolve. I learned grading from the channel Waqas Qazi.

[@johndao5870]

Thanks for the tips for ways to overcome Ibis issues. Do you have tips for AF issues?

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

Unfortunately, I don't

[@SwitchbackGuitars]

There’s a speed control for the AF that will slow down the focus rack. Try 0 or -1.

[@InTechxicated_SyedAsif]

I've tried that already. It slowed down the focus rack but the rack itself is still not smooth.

[@SwitchbackGuitars]

@@InTechxicated_SyedAsif I'd like to see them improve that in firmware. It seems like it just racks at one constant speed, fast or slow. Canon and Sony seem to ramp the speed in a more natural way.

[@albourindiaye502]

These are some of the best footage I’ve seen on the XT4. 😮 What gimbal are you using, there?

Cameras have become so beautiful these days with so many options which makes us wonder "should we own again another camera" thought we already have one. Sony is always good, but I think Fujifilm will dominate the camera marker for years!!!!

[@petreskyfilms]

New subscriber here ~ great video. Is there a video record limit at 4K/30? And, are there any overheating problems while recording at 4K/30? Thanks!

[@professionalpotato4764]

4k30 zero overheating, tested back to back for 3 hours in a 30 deg C room. 4k60 overheats if shot back to back. When I was doing B-roll shots outdoors without shade, it sometimes overheats. Cools down after 5-10 mins but could be a dealbreaker if you work on set. I think ambient temperature is a key factor so depends on where you live. I am thinking of getting a Ninja V to bypass all the record limits and overheating issues.

[@petreskyfilms]

@@professionalpotato4764 Hey! ...thanks for the response. Overheating and time limits were a big concern of mine, so I actually ended up going with the Lumix GH5ii. I'll be shooting in warm sunny areas a lot... Been shooting 4K60 10bit 4-2-0 (200mbps) with no time limits or overheating issues at all ~ loving it! ...Cheers!

[@professionalpotato4764]

@@petreskyfilms Cool! That was one of my considerations too. If I shot mostly videos only, the GH5 would be a no brainer. I went with the Fuji so I could still use my EF lenses for photography.

[@PPimenta]

I love and hate the IBIS, handheld with movement you must turn off boost mode (this mode is to mimicking a tripod). You have EIS for more performance moving, but I don't like it for professional use. Hope this can be improved by firmware.

Daily reminder that the xt4 is a hybrid camera, if you want a photo camera then you go with Xt5, for video - xh2

NICE 👍👍

[@adhasamudera]

nice video

[@raspas99]

To me the dynamic range is a bit of a weak point. It is not that great and is beaten by every other brand pretty much, except Panasonics older micro four-thirds which has pretty much the same. Holding grip is small for a hand and those famous miraculous updates that add functionality to the camera are p nonexistent and only bug fixes. Phone image Transfer software is absolute slow garbage and asks for your internet connection just to transfer images by a Bluetooth. And those fancy good lenses are actually not that good at all but heavily corrected with softer inside the camera and if you find a third-party raw reading software and turn off all of the correction you will be pretty much horrified. You can then unknowingly say that it doesn't matter but it destroys color and the dynamic range in corners of your image and in video if you do any kind of camera tracking for any kind of professional visual effects work your softwares attempts will be absolutely destroyed with all of the artificial correction. Other than that h265 video is amazing but other smaller points would be that your rec bit rate won't make much of a difference and different options are there just to silence the stupid consumer who think that more is better even though you won't be able to see a difference even if you try with software and also keep in mind even if you choose "every individual frame video compression" method it will work extremely slow in your NLE all the same. Those are the bad points but having said that the camera is actually amazing with many good points and to this day I enjoy using it like the first day I bought it a year ago. I don't regret buying it and nothing that came out later made me doubt my purchasing decision even a little.
