I believe one of your great strengths when making a video is that you drop small surprises, keep the viewer interested throughout the video. I like the snaps you took! Great work as always.

[@ShakirovAleksandr]

Sam, your every review is like small films made with love and soul! I look forward to your every new video. You are one of my main sources of inspiration, thank you!

[@SamuelStreetlife]

Thank you for the kind words! Really appreciate it Mr or Mrs Banana Lover :D

[@SamuelStreetlife]

The price I mentioned in the video was updated (it was changed after I made the video). Official price for the X-E4 is currently 849$! Just wanted to correct that in case you were wondering :) Also, EVF resolution is NOT identical to X100V. It is slightly lower resolution. I had no info about the specs at the time of the unboxing.

[@jovankaramach]

it's for me. The perfect camera for me. I was waiting for this fuji model for a long time. i had to struggle with xt10 or xt20. this is the best thing ever made from fuji.

[@JohnKrill]

View mode and Focus mode can be put into a function buttons. This camera is so easy to use and most important it is light. I use a thumb grip to assist in gripping the camera. I like this camera so much it has replaced my X-Pro2 as my primary camera.

[@dgutie8]

Great review! As always very informative!

[@buzhichun]

The clean, flat front certainly looks amazing but I do think it's a bit of a shame they removed the S/C/M switch. Still, a tilt screen is one of the few things I miss on my X-E3. Also those wide strap lugs look niice, and the angular corners remind me a bit of old Canon screwmount rangefinders, or the Nikon F. Fuji really outdid themselves, they keep making more and more beautiful cameras.

[@borromine]

Great help - thank you! I’ve decided against buying this upgrade to my E3. I have the H1 and T3. I’ll just get the 27mm lens.

[@BaddaBigBoom]

For me, the flip up/out/down screen is extremely useful for three situations: 1) Low close up shots of (for example) plants/fungi and really anything that would require a close to the ground POV that would otherwise require the photographer to prostrate themselves belly down ...in public! 2) "Shooting from the hip" with the screen flipped out facing up for less intrusive street photography ...and 3) Photography when in a crowd, especially if you are short like I am. Screen flipped out but facing down, so you can hold the camera high up at arm's length and see over the crowd, almost like a periscope. Great review, I bought one of these a year or so ago. Thumbs up

[@bigheadtaco]

@@SamuelStreetlife Compliments & feedbacks are always sensitive subject both for the sender and the receiver. I've realised, it didn't reflect my thinking. Sorry about that. Now it's reflecting my truth.

[@sakanaatama]

Thank you Samuel for that great review. I was briefly contemplating selling my X100F and X-T2 and getting this one instead. Until I watched your video. I was still rather convinced until you hinted on the missing manual focus switch. Thank you for bringing this up! That officially kills it for me. I'm using it all the time. Would have been easy for Fuji to keep it just as it was on the X-E3 and on basically all other major cameras. I guess it got sacrificed for a sleek design just like even the little "grip bump" which means you always have to use the accessory making it a bit more bulky at the bottom. Two rather sad decisions on an otherwise amazing camera. Kind of bums me out cause I was looking forward to this.

[@SamuelStreetlife]

I totally understand you. It is very frustrating that they removed the AF switch. I am hoping they will add a custom feature to switch between AF and M through the FN buttons. That would help alot.

[@SicksomniA]

[@-grey]

Finally, they made my perfect camera. I had the X-E2s years ago and upgraded to the X-T2, for the screen flip and the dual EVF, then I got X-70 as a 2nd body, just because I missed the X-E style so much. I think I will have to sell all my shit and buy one. ✌️

[@DieCastErn]

Always buy the new one and try out before deciding whether to sell the old one or not☝️

[@TheGeordietheWitchandtheWench]

[@capturedbyannamarie]

Great video! Still think I am getting the x100v, since I have the xpro2 for changing lenses. I think this will compete with the x100v though.

[@babyboy1971]

This is an awesome review ! I’d love to pick your brain on the following… I’m having a hard time with deciding on a new Fuji body, struggling with GAS, but also feeling like I want a new and/or third body. Right now I’m shooting on an XT3 and an X100V. Love both. I shoot studio portraits and headshots, personal branding photos and the occasional family session. I used to shoot engagements and weddings, but now it’s almost entirely portrait work. I have fallen in love with the rangefinder style of the X100V, and I am eyeing the XPRO 3 and XE4. I’m having a hard time deciding if I should sell my XT3, and get an XPRO 3, keep the XT3 and get an XE4, or just wait and save for the XPRO3 and have three cameras (XT3, XPRO & X100). I’ve also considered the XT4, but I don’t do video, don’t care about IBIS and I just don’t see the upgrade. I like to work very minimalist, and I only have a handful of lenses. I would love your thoughts as to what you would do in my shoes. I think I’m also feeling kind of burnt out and bored and there’s something about the x100 that just makes me want to shoot more, which is why I’m leaning towards the rangefinder minimalism found in the XE4 and XPRO series. I want the camera to get out of my way, and my work is about connection, simplicity and closeness. Even in the studio, I keep one eye open. I am finding myself shooting in studio with the X100! Would you sell the XT3 and get the XPRO, keep it and go XE4, or just wait and save and get the XPRO as a third? I think there is some piece of me that’s just scared of going entirely rangefinder, considering I’m doing studio for portraits… But maybe that’s just a simple learning curve. And if I sell my XT3 I could probably afford to get another lens, although I’m pretty happy with my combination of 23, 35 and 56. If the focus on the XE4 is as good as the XT3, or better, I’m in. Is it really that fast? Is the XE4 comparable to XT3 in terms of IQ, ability to work with strobes and speed?

[@JoeLopez]

This is a great kit! I am about to update my X100T to a X100V, but this really has me reconsidering.

[@ThereGoesSpider]

Keep the T. The sensor and look is so timeless. I love it more than my V. The V is awesome in so many ways... but I’d keep the T, as well.😊

[@UlyssesAokiPhoto]

Thank you Joel!!

[@igniaulfsborg8946]

Just checked out Ron Haviv...no excuses indeed! Thanks for the rec.

[@MikeFilancPhotography]

I personally like the minimalist design language Fuji has adapted starting with the X100V! I have to admit I like how similar this camera looks to an X100 now only with the added functionality of an interchangeable lens mount. I bought my X100V thinking I’d shoot B-Roll with it for my channel and maybe a little A-Roll from time to time. I have to say after trying it out, the lack of a dedicated headphone jack is frustrating. Also Fujifilm really needs to improve their manual focusing experience to round out the otherwise very tactile and pleasing shooting experience. I don’t think it’s an accident you chose a Samyang lens as your primary video lens over a Fujinon. 🙃

[@SamuelStreetlife]

Good observation skills :D I do like focusing manual for video. I personally don't mind not having a headphone jack. My X-H1 doesn't have one too and I got so good at reading the audio levels that I never have any issues. But it would be nice to have of course. You can use a USB to headphone jack adapter with the X-E4 though.

[@MikeFilancPhotography]

@@SamuelStreetlife interesting! I’ve tried only looking at the meters before and I agree with you it is a workable substitute. Still that “focus by wire” business has got tot go! 😅

[@te_z]

You had the same complaint - lack of dedicated button to switch between LCD, EVF, etc - with the X100V as well. I agree, I wish there was a dedicated button like on the XH1. But, alternatively, you can assign a custom button to this function. On my X100V I have assigned the little custom button next to the shutter to the display mode switch function. FYI!

[@SamuelStreetlife]

I must have missed that! That would be awesome. Thanks for the tip!

[@johnnytwo-shoes9798]

Ha. I watched Kai's video just before yours so there you go 😉. Always enjoy your vids. Something you said triggered a flow of thought (also I'm not taking a swipe at anyone nor trying to start a debate - disclaimer over)... I find it funny how we (humans) often need to categorise (primarily for marketing/promotion) things but give those things unapt nomenclature. Some photographers you've interviewed in the past have discussed this too. (It's like many music genres which were invented by the record industry to better market music sales. Steam punk is one which isn't punk but references cyberpunk which is a subcategory of punk, but steampunk still retains punk in the name). Street photography needing people to be a photograph of the street. I understand the genre/style is meant to be a candid document of the human element of the ✌️street✌️ but why call it "street" when it is about the human element and is the artificial street not human element enough? I think people get hung up on it and I don't think it's a problem to document evidence of human presence but absent of actual humans, even if the manmade environment is the evidence (the street) and call it street photography... and keeping in line with popular definition of "street ", and if needing to distinguish it from urban landscape or architectural where the focus could be popularly defined to represent the urban environment itself or architecture as the name suggests, I don't see why documenting/capturing the same environment where the focus is to draw attention the absence of people in a normally bustling environment would also constitute as Street despite not quite fitting the popular purist definition. I guess that was a long-winded way of saying I think it's fine for you (anyone) to take a photo of the street documenting the absence of people or even plain urban environment and still call it Street - COVID/post apocalyptic Street. Maybe we should be calling it something that alludes to the human element if it is a requirement for the style - but I guess urban social documentary photography doesn't market as well. Ok stream of consciousness over.

[@daverosephoto]

Definitely a good camera. The sensor and processor are great and the image quality is fantastic for a 800€ cam. The missing AF/MF/CF-switch hurts … but on the other hand: How often do i really use it? And would i miss it when my X-H1 did not has it? I would say you have to be fine with some compromises and in real life the handicap is okay and you can find a workflow for this. All in all an interesting cam! Thanks for the content ✊

[@user-oq6de8sd6y]

So the price of the X-S10 with Ibis Really too expensive for less.

[@AstroLaVista]

Thanks I really enjoyed this. I'd choose the XE4 all day long over the ZV1 provided the pre amps are not too hissy?

[@shlawchablaas]

Hmm, to be honest I think some of my favorite things from the X-E1 are gone in this generation, I liked the buttons on the rear, I liked the feel of the old grip (probably similar with the accessory grip, I know), and I also am a fan of the C/S/M focus selector switch. That said, the tilt screen would probably be great, and who am I to complain about missing buttons? I just got a Leica TL2 with no buttons at all... but hey, it was cheap :)

Haha yeah man! I made it... Dude it's seriously a cool camera for people like us who shoot street and film stuff for youtube. And feels lighter than the X100V without the grip.

[@themoolag]

[@fdopv]

Excellent video. Does placing a V filter before the lens hood affect the focus motor on this 27mm lens?

[@Ibbsept1980]

Honestly, they could have keep the focus selection mode in front and the dial behind, moving the joystick in a little higher position, add weather sealing and increase the viewfinder size a little. I didn't expect IBIS on this model, but was expecting at least to get WR. And even worse, now it lost so many key features, like the dial behind and the focus mode selector. Those key features + the new 27mm pancake, made me think into switch from my sony A6000 into Fuji... But now I am not that sure about the switch I think, I will wait and see what Sony gonna do with Aps-c, because seems like they only using the same old body and sensor time after time, and only changing theyr firmware for a better focusing one in new models, while theyr full frame lines get more and more love in each release and the treatment difference between Aps-c and full frame keeps increasing.

[@LE672AJ]

I choked on my soda from laughing when Kai popped up at the end 😂

[@SamuelStreetlife]

[@majorbigss1]

SPOILER ALERT

[@InertiaEffect]

I assume image stabilization and weather sealing are reserved for their more premium cameras... like the xpro/xt series.

[@cupitronic]

I've heard, it has more options to configure and safe the custom settings in the q menu beside film simulation. Are you showing them in another video. I think the x-e4 is the only Fuji camera, that can do that.

[@dasIDS]

I dont know why they did it smaller then X-E2 starting from X-E3 ... I think X-E2 was perfect size!! still having and enjoying it! And I see that mII version of 27mm is still having this "breathing" focus construction... didnt like it much with their first version and sold the lens and kept 18mm instead - way more comfortable to use to my test. I think as GR user you will like it too!! Its just a tiny bigger then 27mm but works faster and quieter even on my old X-E2 and with newer bodies it will be a beast! )))

[@ammadoux]

thanks so much.

[@sifren2491]

Pretty sure the reason why if you hold the camera close to something the screen auto inverts is because their evf eye sensor is how the camera knows you're in selfie flip screen mode.

[@capturerlinstant6056]

Nice review :) , i think buy this 27mm mk2 for my xpro3.....Gear acquisition syndrome :D

[@TheBigNegative-PhotoChannel]

Fantastic decision by Fujifilm to send you the camera for testing. Really great review. I've been shooting with an X-E3 for years and the only reason to switch to an X-E4 would have been the IBIS, which isn't there. I would recommend the X-S10 to anyone. 1/10 shutter speed at 35mm(50mm eq.) just can't be beat. You don't even have to buy a grip to hold the camera properly 😄

[@akyerit]

Ya your thoughts about one camera and two lens set up was exaclty what I was thinking too. Seems smart. And if you have to do any walking shots I suppose you can use a phone, or a small gimbal because it is so little and light. Really actually has me considering it. I just sold my x100v too primarily due to lack of any ibis. But you know sometimes I like to use old manual lenses too which would work too well without ibis. I wish to God Fuji would just give us some digital stabe st the very least to help with micro jitters. Such a simple solution.

[@SamuelStreetlife]

Maaaybe they can add digital IS with firmware? Or maybe they thought that IBIS is too modern and we used to use old manual lenses without IBIS for decades so... 😅 but once you experienced IBIS you don't want to go back.

[@Mettyunuabona_]

"you can watch kai's video now" HA! Shots fired! From what I am aware of, you have to pay for both grips - I really don't want to pay £140 in total so I can hold my camera better. It's justifiable with my XH1 as I get more power and vertical functionality but this? feels like fuji they are treating ergonomics as a commodity.... then again I can't talk; also own an M6! I think I'm just going to stick with X Trans III Bodies for now and side-grade my XE2 to the XE3 or better yet, X-Pro 2?!

[@SamuelStreetlife]

Yeah I feel you. I thought it comes with all X-E4's... But I have now removed the grip and I would say you really only need the thumbrest to make it more comfortable. Feels like a digital leica M with the thumbrest but a little grippier. X-Pro2 or XH1 are so much bigger than the X-E4 I wouldn't compare them. Flip screen and newer sensor would lean me towards the X-E4 (also same AF system as XT4) if I would want a second camera.

Together with the new WR 27mm it would be the perfect street camera to use in any weather conditions. I personally never had a camera break down on me that has no WR but I also don't try to force it. It would have been nice have a complete pocketable WR camera set up. And yes IBIS would have been nice too! But we didn't get either of them...
