As you probably know by now, I'm absolutely loving taking JPEG only photos with my Fujifilm X-T4! It's been such a pleasant experiment that has turned into a full-blown series of ideas and videos.
Following on from my last video, experimenting with editing Fuji raw files using Fujifilm X Raw Studio, I'm back out in London putting a new recipe to the test and editing solely with the cameras built-in functions. A few adjustments were made to the photos afterwards, but still only using the tools available built into the X-T4.
In today's vlog, I'm sharing one of my favourite types of photography: social photography. The enjoyment I get from mixing photography with social events and activities is unmatched. I love having a camera with me wherever I go. Being able to quickly achieve great images with JPEG only has just elevated the opportunities I have for capturing memories and lifestyle activities.

Shooting jpeg only with Fuji is so satisfying, minimal editing if any with awesome results. Awesome video!

[@joeallam]

Absolutely! It's sparked so much inspiration and motivation to go out and take more images!

[@ElyRiverBlues]

Just tried your City Neg2 using Classic Chrome as a base colour (X-E3) - it's really nice for urban shots! Well done.

[@joeallam]

Ah, good stuff! I’ve since been working on a Classic Chrome based recipe that might be more suitable for some of the older cameras. Stay tuned!

[@raymorgan4337]

@@joeallam That will be excellent. Look forward to it.

[@showdaKOs]

Fuji has reallly allowed me to do social photography. Before, every time, I would shoot, try to edit the raws and by the time am done with it (usually weeks or months after), can't be bothered to upload and share it with my family or friends, if I get to edit it at all. Now, even with hundreds of photos, during the event, I upload it on the phone with the app (it can be very long - fuji's app is crap - but it's okay cuz it forces me to put the camera down for a bit) then I check them quickly and share them with everybody through messenger or whatsapp. That way, they got the pics even before the end of the event !

[@joeallam]

This is exactly the experience I have had with capturing photos of social occasions as well. We're definitely not alone with it, ha! Glad the JPEG solution is working well for you too!

[@tesalsangma]

Your videos just make me happy every single time and want to go out and take photos more. They also make me miss my friends. 🤗

[@joeallam]

Thanks, Tesal! Always glad to hear you're enjoying the videos. It's been a weird year for social occasions, but happy to be on the upward trend of things now ✌️

[@noelwho6537]

Shout out from a fuji user in Taiwan! Just bumped into this channel and absolutely love the casual vibe of your videos, and Boy I was amazed by the whole x-raw setup thing which I've never known for the whole time! Thanks for that

[@joeallam]

Hey hey, welcome! I’m a big fan of Taiwan and made some of my favourite vlogs ever when we spent a few days there in 2019. Would love to return someday soon! Here’s the first video, in case you’ve not seen them yet: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqXVkoekhKmthM0

[@paulmoss4199]

Enjoying the videos Joe, jpeg only shooting with Fuji is so liberating

[@MikeChudley]

Absolutely loved this vlog Joe!

[@jmtennapel]

Transferring images: I experience that if you select the images on the camera to send over, it is faster than selecting the images from the phone screen first and then import the selection. The app is not the greatest, but you can setup the camera to send over every image automatically to the phone if the slow process of selecting really bugs you.

[@joeallam]

Yeah that’s what I find myself doing most times. Still a little slow and clunky browsing through the images, but it gets the job done.

[@aramdavid]

this is the most British video I think I've ever seen haha

[@rymack5715]

Another incredibly inspiring, and gorgeously shot video! Your friend seems like an awesome dude as well! Thanks for sharing, Joe!

[@grantthomas7992]

Absolutely love your videos man. Look forward to each one!

[@joeallam]

I appreciate the support; cheers! ✌️

[@OliverMay1]

Hi Joe. Loving this jpeg only series of videos, it really brings back the fun aspect of taking photos without the faff and stress of editing afterwards. And the Fuji cameras are simply amazing at in camera jpegs. A quick question, is there any chance of you doing one of these where you use your X100F? And if you do, maybe produce some bespoke recipes for it? Cheers man!

[@joeallam]

Thanks! I’m having so much fun with it; and you’re right, it’s really bringing the excitement back to photography. I’m thinking if converting my X100F to a JPG only camera, so will see what recipes I make for it…

[@jpr-tech]

Totally agree with the whole shooting JPEGs in Fuji! I have been doing so myself for a while now on my X-H1.

[@anilkumarmalviya7038]

Thanks for sharing the recipes, it actually helps a lot in as a starting point 🙌

[@AmeliaHeldt]

More Joe-2 please! He’s an absolute delight!

[@-grey]

Buckets of personality. ✌️

[@joeallam]

Joe definitely brings the good vibes! 😊

[@paulhargreaves1497]

Joe gets Fuji Camera Remote to work! Respect 🙏

[@yuka]

So fun!!🥰✨ I’m going to start cooking up my own Fuji recipe too so I can go shooting with you and Elly some day🥺📸

[@joeallam]

Ahh yay! Would be so great to go shooting with you sometime! The Fuji recipes are so much fun to play around with 😊

[@AmeliaHeldt]

Omg your friend Joe, he’s SO FUNNY! 😂

[@cliveeariss880]

Hello Joe and Elly, loved the video, the lighting and the lighting again, all the best you too.

[@joeallam]

We've been lucky with the lighting this last month - definitely making the most of it!

[@mwales2112]

I enjoy using Superstone when out and about and named it after you in camera..... Thanks Joe...

[@paulm8157]

Uplifling, joyous video that perfectly illustrates the “social side” theme w/cheerful good friend - complete w/“disposable blinds”.👍 Custom film sims spot on for “stone” buildings. Fuji app can be fussy, but a follow-up vid showing camera control using app would be most welcome. Cheers!

[@lisamorter7437]

you're so happy! Now i'm happy

[@derrenleepoole]

Good to see you have your mojo back.... :)

[@joeallam]

Thanks! Feeling motivated and positive with momentum lately!

[@musiclover6948]

Another fantastic video! Your photos look amazing! Makes me wanna upgrade to an X-T4 after covid clears up here in Taiwan!

[@joeallam]

I've been really enjoying the photos out of this X-T4, even more so since trying out JPEG only. It just further increases the fun to photography.

[@Happy_Snapper]

Your friend is so naturally funny

[@thirdmort]

Perfect timing for a new video talking about film simulation recipes. I've been playing around with my new X100V (your videos definitely pushed that purchase sooner) and wanted to find some new ones. Excited to play with those 2 you posted on the video!

[@joeallam]

Enjoy! They're both very similar recipes, but hopefully in certain scenarios you'll see how the differences play out for different results. Particularly in the way shadows are captured.

[@thomaschipman]

you're not wrong, the app is grossly under-developed and feels very much like it was rushed to market and then just neglected. it shouldn't be so difficult to have a polished app that connects reliably and transfers images quickly. at least fuji isn't alone in this regard; the apps from other camera vendors are just as clunky.

[@joeallam]

Yeah, they're all crap aren't they?! It's so weird how it still seems like such an after-thought and then attempts are made to "fix" the problem, by releasing yet another app, rather than re-making the existing ones.

[@antant06]

Wonderful videos as always, thank you for getting back into the groove of things. :)

[@mattphillips60]

Keep the jpeg videos coming and more Joe2 please he’s fab 😂

[@MikeMayerPhotograph]

I love your work 👏🏼🤩 and the results are gorgeous. I‘m currently in love with the filmsimulation LomoChrome Metropolis. Maybe a suggestion for a new video.

[@AntonyBall-h9g]

just subscribed Joe liked the video good fun with your friends along with you nice, I still shoot raw and jpg myself only just getting into the Fujifilm world but really enjoying it.......

[@mmoreels]

Fun video, Joe. You’ve also converted me to JPEG straight out of camera. Your videos of the neighborhood - shot on the X-T4? They’re beautiful.

[@joeallam]

Thanks! Yep; all images shot on the X-T4 using the JPEG settings mentioned. Very enjoyable experience!

[@sexysilversurfer]

You can shoot RAW and then make different JPEGs simulations in the camera. That way if you don’t like one simulation you can try another.

[@kaduzeratv]

What smartphone is that?

[@DanniPortillo]

Marvelous video man

[@joeallam]

Cheers! Good vibes making it, good vibes publishing it!

[@SeanNeale]

Great video and recipes! Do you still use the C70?

[@tonymckeage1028]

Good Morning, Great Jpegs only Video, Thanks for sharing, have a great week

[@chrisvomradio]

11:39 man, I really love Fuji cameras but the app is like the worst app ever.. Great video by the way. Nice to see you back :-)

[@K1989L]

Ever used the camera dongle for the iphone?

[@joeallam]

As in… the lightning to USB adapter? Unfortunately I haven’t.

[@paulfournierphoto]

Great video! Hopefully soon we’ll be able to travel and socially take shots in meet up group! 🍻

[@joeallam]

Cheers! It'll be great to host another meet-up some time this year - hopefully in the summer!

[@paulfournierphoto]

@@joeallam yes and hopefully they open the world back up so I can squeeze into the UK 🤩

[@melodyteo4845]

Would you do photography courses please?

[@renekalweit5976]

I had the jab all the best long term could result i health issues

[@timwra]

How is it going with the delta variant of the coronavirus in London because I heard in the news that it spreads all over the UK. I hope you, Elly and your families won‘t get the new delta variant.

[@SandbagBouldering]

Hahahahaha Double Joe

[@joeallam]

Joe² 😏

[@ethanlee5446]

Shout out from Taiwan!

[@simonwilliams2109]

All over the place is good, do it again!

[@anilkumarmalviya7038]

Would love to see you trying acros and Monochrome, with a lil tweak i think London would be a great place.. 🙌 Love all your videos 🙌

[@joeallam]

I actually used to set my viewfinder to Acros when I first got my X100F. It’s a great simulation!

[@JamesRandall47]

Too much rabbit!
