The new X-H2S is great. I wish Fujifilm would make a real cinema camera with XLR, SDI, internal ND filters and with the video capabilities of the X-H2S. That could be a great cheaper option to the Canon C300iii or the C70. Normally I like the color science of Fujifilm. Sometimes you need to tweak them until the skin tones look great like you did, but I like the color science way more than Sony's color science.

At the beginning of the video I was thinking "man, this looks really good", but the further into the video I got the more the sharpening really bothered me. The dynamic range does look awesome though. The gh6 also does Prores internal recording but that's not a camera I think you're interested in. I'm in the market for a new hybrid camera soon and was leaning towards the gh6 or xh2s. I know the Fuji is the better stills camera but man that sharpening is something else. I may just wait to see how Panasonic updates their S line.

You can use a Schneider Hollywood blackmagic diffusion filter 1/4 to soften the image a bit, or you can soften the image in post by decreasing the mid tone detail slightly in devinci resolve. Don’t let that aspect prevent you from getting an otherwise great camera. Personally I don’t have a problem with the sharpness because it’s not digital sharpness and it’s easy to control. The A role in this video looks really great to me.
@JeremyHalterman2 жыл бұрын
The GH6 is a killer camera at a killer price, especially if you're already invested in good MFT glass. It's easier to add artificial sharpness to taste that it is to convincingly tame artificial sharpness with diffusion or in post. That said, I keep my GH6's sharpness turned all the way down, use a Black Satin 1, and never add any sharpness in post, so you can imagine how uncomfortable this X-H2s footage made me haha If you're looking at getting into the S line: I wouldn't be surprised if Lumix announces the next generation of S1/S1H before too long, and considering that the S1H already beats the X-H2s on most fronts (especially image quality) except for AF, I can't imagine someone considering a Lumix would be happy with an X-H2s in the long term. The way I see it, this camera is for people who do care about AF but not as much as image quality, and Sony is the inverse. Then there's Lumix with the best image but the worst AF 😂

I would never go with a m4/3 sensor again. General science says that bigger the sensor, more light you can use. Not to mention that aps-c can still use full-frame lenses a lot more manageably (i.e. the crop factor is more manageable, the light you loose from the lens is more manageble, etc.). And you never have to constantly justify to other people why you're using a m4/3 sensor. Every friend of mine (myself included) that was/is sold on panasonic is ALWAYS bringing up unsolicited about how m4/3 sensor size is never an issue for them and that it's such a good deal and you can do this and that. Don't get me wrong GH6 is an awesome camera, and if you can get over the hurdles of deep crop factor calculations, less available lenses specifically built for m4/3, light loss when using non-m4/3 lenses, or needing to buy a speedbooster to make more lenses useable, then it's a great option. My personal opinion is that all the issues you have with the sharpening can be resolved for the Fujifilm much easier. From my personal experience having had and used m4/3, aps-c and full frame cameras, larger sensors come with more opportunities, more compatibility, easier use, less adapters, less instances of justifying your sensor size, less crop factor calculations, etc. etc. etc. I personally have landed on fujifilm even after having Sony full frame cameras because the maliability of the footage is sooo good. You can make it look however you want, it just takes some experimentation and learning to get the look you want, but once you figure it out you're set (the same can be said with every single camera). Something that I did think of just now is that if you want to also do photography, from my personal experience, this camera is the better choice. I hated doing photography on the gh5 I had. It was just so bothersome and I felt limited all the time (yes that's my own problem and feelings, but that's how I feel.) I even partially feel that same way with fujifilm because of the crop factor on my favorite full-frame vintage lenses, but it's not as bad as m4/3 was for me. Photography I prefer full frame all the time, it's just so much easier for my perfectionist adhd brain, but fujifilm's colors and ease of use in photography is just so refreshing that I the crop factor doesn't bother me as much. My two cents? Pick the camera that you believe you will be more excited to use more often; the camera that gives you less work that you don't want to do; the camera that helps you focus not on the camera itself, but what you are filming, photographing, or otherwise telling a story about. The camera that gives you the least amount of worries will be the one that gets you up, excited and going to go and do something. That could be the GH6, X-H2S, or something else entirely.

I've shot with the XH2-S professionally for the past year. At first I didn't mind the over-sharpened image, but it started bothering me a bit. I did soften the image in post, but something about it still looked off. I do feel the image looks flat and I really hate the way it renders skin. I have the NR set to -4 and it still looks very processed. It's almost like there's a slight glow on the edges or high contrast areas. This could be due to the processing being applied that has a large radius for the for the NR, but I'm not an expert on that subject. I started using my BMPCC 4k and I vastly prefer the image from it. It's no where as sharp, the DR is inferior and mostly everything else on paper would suggest the XH2-S being the clear winner... but, the image from the BMPCC 4k felt a lot more rich and organic. It looks like a true cinema camera to me.

One reason the fuji is that sharp is that it doesnt have an optical low pass filter whereas the komodo does. Red cameras have rather aggresive olpf to inhibit moire but it is at the expense of sharpness. Fuji is using a new x trans sensor technology that eliminates the need for olpf making the images sharper than the stated resolution would imply. Whether that is a good thing though is rather subjective.

Though these are legitimate concerns or personal issues, you need to think of who will be using this and how. Anyone using this with digital lenses and content creation in mind (KZbin for example) will probably be fine with the sharpening. Especially if they are trying to take advantage of autofocus and eye detection. However, anyone who wants to shoot more serious video, that being short films, etc, will be doing manual focusing anyway and will most likely (not saying in all cases) adapting vintage lenses. Like what was stated in the video, fuji doesn’t have a ton of options video wise for lenses, they have a very limited lineup and most professional that I admire that work with these cameras normally have adapted older glass to their systems to take that digital edge off. Plus we can’t forget post processing (with de sharpening for example) and filters that can be adapted. Like I said even though these are legitimate concerns, at the end of the day, if this is in the hands of a professional does it really matter? Most people that complain (not this thread in particular or this comment, just speaking generally) are usually shit or lack the proper knowledge for colors, editing, or really the eye for it. For example, if my clients have hired me because the videos I use to produce on a XT-3 (a photo focused camera) were so good and came out way better then my competition/peers who had technically better/dedicated video cameras, it’s a testament that you don’t need a “beast” of a camera to make amazing results. And I’ll say the same here, regardless if there is a little issue or quirks with the camera like sharpening, if even the director for The Joker (which image wise is beautiful) de sharpened their footage, what’s the difference here?
@gabrielmachadobsb2 жыл бұрын
I think this might be a product of their stubbornness in using Xtrans sensors. You can't sharp Xtrans footage with the same algorithm you use on Bayer sensor, so they might oversharpen the hell out of it in camera to prevent you from doing it in post. And Xtrans also generates terrible purple moire, which they "fix" with aggressive chroma noise reduction. Fuji needs to rethink everything, which is frustrating when there is so much good in this camera, but it's held back by a flawed core design
@AnzelLmao2 жыл бұрын
@@JimmyFerminFilms I don't disagree on what you're saying about what people need, the ability to pull a good image in the right hands, as well as with the methods to sort of "desharpen" footage. I also rock an XT3 paired with a P4k and have been hired to do shoots where others would've balked at my "lack" of gear (and other shooters have given me funny looks before). But I always come out just fine. I always prefer the P4K image but the XT3 is more than good enough and is sometimes the tool needed to get the job done. However, in regards to sharpening, I just feel llike it's something that fuji could implement pretty easily without any real downside, or at least one that any of us can really think of. E.g. I've worked with a7siii and a7iv footage numerous times, and even tho some of that "sharpness" is still there, the image looks more organic than fuji's in that specific sense (fuji colors are better imo). It's sort of like why not just implement it if possible, rather than holding back the capabilities of the camera?

The skintones look really orange in your video, I normally dont see that with Fuji... And I dont like it.

I guess over $3200 for a camera and a simple lens is 'normal'

I'm glad my Fuji X-H2s looks better than the Red.

Sharpness is not a relevant feature to consider in video.

with phone video it is, but definitely with narrative or even corporate or documentary work, avoid anything oversharpened.

For the stuff I shoot I usually always have to soften the image a bit in post and that works fine on an image that looks good with minimum sharpening forced in camera and as little as possible forced noise reduction. However when the image looks like this Fuji it's pretty much unfixable. You'll just be smearing and otherwise manipulating the artifacts from the sharpening and make it look even worse.
