Why I Use Fuji Cameras - Documentary Photographer Daniel Milnor

Dan and I want to know what content you're hungry for on our channel, so please take a moment to tell us in our survey www.surveymonkey.com/r/WQBMYMQ

Advancing Your Photography I would love a video(s) about backing up and archiving your images. What are some of the options and their pros/cons? What do you guys do to make sure your prized images are safe from a hard disk crash, theft, or God forbid a fire / natural disaster. Thank you!

[@DANIELMILNOR505]

@@ronm6359 I'm probably not the guy to discuss this. I have a system but there are others who know much more. Like Peter Krogh. He's my go to guy when I need information about archiving. His books are awesome.

The single shot here with no cuts gets a little boring. I like to see videos of the camera in action and example shots shown to back up what the photographer is describing.

I did it. I just offloaded my entire Canon system. 5diii, l-series zooms, etc. My cupboards were full of crap. Got a used x-t3 with 50mm f2. Such a relief. It's with me all the time now.

[@marcsilber]

🙌

[@Bazzasphotolife]

Thanks, Mr. Silber, for bringing Dan back. I can listen to his wisdom/humour all day. I didn't expect a gear video from Dan but I am delighted that I also shoot and love the X-T3 for many of the same reasons, despite the massive gap in talent (me being a newb).

[@marcsilber]

You're welcome, keep watching and you won't be a newb for long!

[@ronm6359]

I love my Fuji XT3. The primes are fabulous lenses. One aspect I love is shooting with the B&W film simulation enabled, but I still use the raw files and convert to mono in post. That way I can see the world in monochrome in the view finder, it really helps me to pre-visualize my final image. Also, when using manual focus I turn on focus peaking with red. Super easy to see the focus with red peaking.

[@thienta2350]

[@niclaspersson3306]

Daniel - I’d just like to honestly thank you for your no bullshit easy, on the point videos. It’s so refreshing to see someone with something to say, that isn’t sponsored or held in some kind of commercial grip. Your whole approach to this is so fresh! Thanks a lot! Niclas, Sweden (No bears by the way)

[@DANIELMILNOR505]

Niclas, my feeling is that I am the last person who would find sponsorship. My only real interest in photography is the work itself and the experience of being in the field. Doesn't tend to interest camera companies but that's fine by me.

[@marksantostefano1637]

Thank you for all your videos I really enjoy learning from you and catching your inspiration and enthusiasm. Like you I was studying photo journalism at Colorado State University back in 1969 when I applied for a open position at the University‘s paper. They gave me a Nikon FTN and handed me some assignments. It was a great challenge but I really enjoyed it. That process was interrupted when I joined the military during the Vietnam war in 1971 I signed up to be a combat photographer but they made me a medic instead! Most of the combat Photographers at that time had two cameras… A Nikon F for the telephoto and a Leica M with a 35 or sometimes a 28. I still shoot with my Leica M2 and my Nikon FE2. And I use Fuji Cameras because they remind me of those cameras. Thanks for all your good work. I had a dear friend who was a photographer for the LA Times and to also taught at Brooks and I learned a lot from him. His name was Anacleto Rapping. Unfortunately he passed away a few years ago a great friend and a great photographer. You would’ve liked him.

[@paulcallaway71]

Though I'm not a professional, I converted to the Panasonic M4/3 system for many of the same reasons as you pointed out. Compared to the APS-C Canons I used to use, I'm more than happy carrying around less weight, and the near compact size is wonderful and they have a wide variety of lenses of various affordability. One camera body (w/lens) and a small shoulder bag with an extra lens, filters and batteries is a breeze all day long. The mirrorless revolution has really made photography, for me, more enjoyable than ever!

[@CharlesDunkley]

I love my Fujifilm X-T1. It just feels right in my hand.

[@barrycohen311]

But you don't have an XT2 like I do...Boo hoo hoo, :-)

[@muatao9943]

OMG!!! I agree with your points (not a pro here, just amature street photog and occasional animal/nature/wildlife ) and have just invested in a 50-140 f2.8 with 2X converter to set on my 2 year old Fuki X-Pro2!!! Just one (slight) complaint about the Fuji lenses: the 23mm f2 is a bit soft shot wide open: in the streets, when I get the nerve to ask permission for a portrait (from a stranger); it usually is not tack sharp but apart from that, I'm very very happy with the system. Thanks for takingtime to make this video.

[@DANIELMILNOR505]

Hmm, interesting. Mine seems okay. Maybe yours needs a tweak?

[@raymorgan4337]

As an X-T2 and X100F user I have to agree with all your observations. Another factor for me is simply that I enjoy using them; they're so user friendly.

[@jakesdewet3567]

Fully agree, the reason I moved to Fuji.. Quality output, you to use and cost..

[@LyndonPatrickSmith]

Great video Daniel! My favourite camera is the Pentax LX. Estate sale, body in good shape, motor drive, hammerhead flash, 4 lenses, $75 Canadian. For digital, Fuji X-T2. No desire to upgrade anything. Just get out and shoot as you suggested.

[@ncsa197]

After using Canon gear since the early 1980's, I've changed to Fuji for almost exactly the reasons mentioned here. There are many extremely fine systems available today (in fact, it's difficult to buy bad equipment); Fuji is the best choice for me. I just need to continue learning, and use my cameras more than I do.

[@DANIELMILNOR505]

David, alright another old timer like me! I was in a hotel and Crocodile Dundee was on the tele. The reporter was using a Canon F1 and I thought "I know that camera!"

[@esppics21]

I shoot both Sony and Fuji. And love Fuji for the colors and lenses are nice and sharp and don't cost too much. They are APS-C but cost so much less than Sony glass. I love my Fuji System.

[@backwoodstrails]

Domke Bags! Brings back memories of news photography over 40 years back. And you are not alone with back issues from carrying all that gear around.

[@marcsilber]

[@neilpiper9889]

I have used a string of amazing camera from a Speed Graphic to Nikon D300s. I bought a Yashica Mat from a lady friend who threw in her Fujifilm X10. I am amazed using this little camera. I want a Fujifilm system now and I will sell most of my old cameras to do it. This video has confirmed what I need to do. Thank you so much for posting.

[@richardowen4558]

Agree with you on the OM-4 series! Loved the metering system on those cameras. I used those with the winders and Tokina pro line of zoom lenses at the beginning of my 10-year career with a small weekly newspaper before switching to Nikon for autofocus. Now in retirement, I have switched to Fuji, first with X100S and X-E1 and now looking toward the X-Pro2 and 35mm f2 WR lens for something lightweight and weather resistant.

[@JayMcB]

My first camera was a Pentax K-1000. Loved that camera, still have it

[@barrycohen311]

I still have my old Spotmatic F. Has the 55mm f/1.8 SMC Takumar. Amazing camera.

[@mgman6000]

I've been a Fuji shooter for about 9 years starting with the XE1 and now an Xt20 which is exactly what I want The film camera experience and controls got me here. My son gave me a Sony and I hated it, having to plow through a ridiculous menu all the time just wasn't for me as with you I seldom use the menu and only use the Q menu to change settings all in all I have to recommend the Fuji X system especially to old film shooters like me 😊

[@tejraju]

And just like that I decided Fuji is the way to go, thanks Dan!! I was so worked up on Fuji not having a super zoom and was considering Micro4thirds to get the range and still have light weight gear. Your idea of 50-140 with a 2x converter saved me so much research time!!

[@DANIELMILNOR505]

It's not perfect but for the money it's really solid. I didn't realize I would start birding so now I have a second use for it.

[@nanoulandia]

My first serious camera was a Nikon N2000 (SLR) and so when the digital cameras started to appear, I bought a couple of different models. Result: I stopped taking photos. Having to go into the menus (like you so eloquently point out) is awful for me too. I then discovered the Fuji X-T2 and it is pure love. I love the ergonomics and the lenses, although I have a special place in my heart for the Zeiss 32mm and 50mm. I am in awe at the quality of the pictures this combo takes. I have now just got an X-H1. Don't think I will ever switch....

[@petersymes8467]

For all the same reasons I have been a Fuji shooter for 3 years now (Xt3, XPro2, X100F). Coming from full frame Nikon (D750) I just couldn't take the weight any more. I have shot with Nikon since 1963, and some Zenza Bronica for weddings in the 80s and 90s. The feel of the system all the way through is what I have known since I was a kid. Hats off to Fuji for going old school and beating everyone with current tech.

[@DANIELMILNOR505]

Agreed. My back is totally hosed from that damn Domke for a hundred years.

[@martintolley9234]

Kodak Instamatic (my dad found one on a bus and brought it home), Zorki 4K, Pentax SP2 (still got it, still works - shutter sounds "like the sigh of a contented woman") with SMC 1.4 lens (works even better today adapted for XT3!), 3 or 4 other pentaxes, Nikon for 20 years, and then the arthritis set in and D200 concrete block just unholdable. Went to D5300 - great images but ten minutes deep dive through menus and screens, choose X, then select y, confirm choice, return to shoot, and meanwhile the circus has upped and left town. So a recent Fuji convert, and loving it - work it in the dark, I find fuji shooting a "whole body" experience - look at a scene and your hands mould the picture into being. And I'm blown away by the lens quality at the price points.

[@tamilhoward9708]

Daniel this was awesome to see you run through your camera history. I used to be married to Nikon and they are great but I learned that if something strikes me I don't have to apologize for that.

I've got a Sony, I've tried Canon too, but I just missed those manual controls of the Pentax LX and that why today I'm using a Fujifilm X-T4, it is as close as I could get to those manual controls that the LX had.

Since the Fuji camera did not last that long, I could not bring myself to buy a second one. I wanted a new camera so I went out and bought a Canon Powershot elph 190is. I have all the contact information for Canon in case the camera breaks down. I was always attracted to the quality of pictures taken by the Canon, and they did not disappoint me. In my opinion, the Canon camera which I bought takes better pictures then the Fuji camera that I had.

It's not a secret but I don't share my projects until they are complete. I've worked this way since the late 80's. I do this for several reasons. One, it's easy to talk about projects but it's difficult to do them. So, I don't like to say much until I have the goods.

Fujifilm’s marketing is very clever. It’s old school, real photography positioning helps the buyer/user project the image of a serious, old school, technically skilful photographer who came from the “old world” and hence, carrying those decades of skill and experience into the digital photography world.

I bought a X-T2 with Grip (3 total OEM batteries) for $100 at the start of this year. I was thinking of flipping it and make some money (which I should) but I can't. I actually like my X-E2S a lot more and that is probably the one I am going to sell. Spec / quality wise the X-T2 is superior but for cameras that small I like the "rangefinder" style of the xe lineup. But then when I look at the images produced by my D750 I ask myself what am I doing playing with Fuji.

@@johnpoulter I decided I'm going to sell my current Fuji gear (X-E2S and X-T2 w/battery grip, and 18-55mm) and buy either a X100V or X-Pro3/2 (though I am leaning towards the X100V). What I like about my X-E2S is how small it is and how available and ready to go it is. My Nikon gear is packed in a hard case with all the glass where my Fuji is just sitting around ready to be used. When I have a specific project I do pull out the Nikon gear. My Fuji is just there to be picked up. The other camera I use a lot is my Nikon Coolpix A, a APS-C sensor point and shoot pocket camera. I wish the X100V had other focal length options as I think I like the 35mm better than the 23 but I think I can probably with with it. I like the X-Pro2/3 though it may be big enough were I may not take it with me as much. Nothing against the XE series but when I used the XT it was obvious the features (photography wise) were just way superior, enough that I have an idea I will enjoy either the X100 or x-pro. Nikon though is not going away, I still love a lot of what I get out of those babies and it anything will be looking to see what pops up on the used market as people see shiny new toys in the mirror less world.
