Awesome review. As an X-T20 owner (and new youtuber), I can tell you face detection DOES work in 1080p. No-can-do on 4k (which I noticed you're recording in). So, for vlogging my beautiful face....1080p it has to be. Thanks!

[@DmitryBrodsky007]

yep, on XT20 fd and PDAF works in 1080p but not in 4K. on XT2 FD and PDAF now supposedly does work in 4K after 2.0 firmware.

[@MaksimYuryev]

Omar Gonzalez Photography The video af is quite good for contrast only. Definitely better than the Gh5.

[@ogonzilla]

That's awesome..not sure if you got what I was saying...Just saying the FACE DETECTION DOES ACTUALLY WORK...if you switch to 1080p. The FD is not an option in 4k. Hopefully with a future firmware we XT20 users will get that as an option. cheers.

[@EDHBlvd]

Max Yuryev who says this uses Contrast only? The X-T20 uses phase detection pixels. Are you sure in video the phase detect is not working? I've never heard this before.

[@DmitryBrodsky007]

yes, it is a known fact. only Contrast AF and NO FD onXT20 in 4K. Try it in 4K and you will see. The moment you switch to 1080p, PDAF starts working, and you also able to select FD. PDAF is used for Photography. CDAF only for 4K Video

[@JohnThornley]

I have been using Nikon DSLRs for years. I transitioned to the x-t2 very recently. I too have had the experience of just wanting to go out and shoot. I think these Fujis are going to decimate Canon and Nikon for some time to come. So many people are transitioning. The x trans sensor is truly amazing too. I won't be going back.

[@sebcastilho]

@Max Yuryev at 8mins you mention you used +2 shadows and that you shouldn've used +4. In fact, the positive settings creates more contrast by darkening the shadows. What you really want is the -2 setting.

[@jamesaugustimas9100]

XT-20 or A6300?

[@IFrancyISantosI]

1. on the x-t10 i am able to get the front wheel for ISO. I dont know why fuji let that out on this 2. using a l grip for like $15 with arca swiss compability get you a tripod mount with access to battery door 3. new firmware on x-t2 let you change ISO while recording still not sure if upgrading from x-t10 or wait :s but great review.. at the moment you are one of the best camera reviewers.. even as a only photographic point your reviews are often very helpful

[@DmitryBrodsky007]

hoping XT20 get a firmware upgrade where they allow the front dial ISO assignment with a click. XT2 did it with a new firmware. For now I assigned ISO on the rear dial with a click.

[@lltechview]

Seems to be a mistake as I clearly could set the ISO with the front dial during my 10 minutes hands on.

[@lltechview]

X70 and X-A3 also offer a touch screen and the X70 was the first camera from Fujifilm with a touchscreen (even more limited as you cannot focus with touch only it just sets the focus point [needs shutter half press or custom AF button press to actually focus]). As for ISO control in video mode that has been added via firmware update at least on X-T2 and XPro2. (I guess the X-T20s firmware update is on the way for this as x-t2 and xpro2 firmware include this feature now and the x-t20s firmware beta has this also) So one important thing for this camera. Fujifilm is known to improve their cameras a lot via firmware updates and even include new features and functions. (at least for the top level X-Ts and X-Pros)

[@JeraCravoMyself]

You have the best reviews out there! Keep up the good work!

[@interceptorm5]

Excellent review Max, Pics of the kids and the Lady are amazing.

[@RandyStiefer]

such a great camera. I've been using it as my vlogging camera for two weeks now and love it. Get the focusing square in the right spot before you turn the camera on yourself and focus works fine.

[@khronokraze]

overall, I would agree, you get most of the X-T2 in the X-T20.. unless you're pushing for the better AF, 4K video, extended battery life with a battery grip, you're not going to really miss anything from the X-T2 that isn't in the X-T20. I felt strongly that the X-T20 could be a great alternative to my plans to own an X-T2 to pair with my X-Pro2. It's less expensive and as you basically described 90% of the X-T2. BUT, for me, there are 2 factors which are kind of picky that matter to me that make me want to stay with the more expensive X-T2. 1) The 3-way tilt screen. I won't go into details, but I find it extremely useful and works in just enough ways as I need a tilting rear screen to. 2) I actually prefer the chunkier design and body of the X-T2. This is totally subjective, but I find the X-T20 a little skimpy on the build.. like the "shoulders" are too narrow and the faux-pentaprism structure on top is a little small for my taste and not as bold as the X-T2. I also like the meatier dials on the X-T2. Again, totally subjective, but it is a design consideration and, for me, I feel the design aesthetics of the Fuji cameras are a relatively large factor in why I like them over other mirrorless cameras. Anyways, great insight and comparisons in this video. Thanks.

[@蔡依林-g1j]

Your analysis of the X-T20 vs. the X-T2 and others is very helpful. Especially that the X-T20 has no FLog, but does NOT have cropping when making 4K videos. Comparing other specs, I did notice that the X-T20 produces Full HD video only at 36Mbps, whereas the X-T2 does FHD video at a much higher 100Mbps. And although both cameras can shoot 4K at 100Mbps, the X-T20 can only make 10-min clips, while the X-T2 can produce video up to 30 min., with its optional battery/grip. Thanks Max. Keep up the good work.

[@alexcoreablecoreable]

got my X-T20 last week, the colors are REALLY pleasant and it is so fun to use!

[@MaksimYuryev]

+Alex Coreable Congrats!

[@EDHBlvd]

0:52 No, actually Fuji's first touchscreen X series camera came out a couple years back. The X70. Cheers

[@planetwally]

Max this was a very comprehensive review - I've been shooting with the x-pro1 for a few years and am very tempted to go for the x-t20 as I am going to be working on youtube videos...still on the fence vs the Sony 6300/6500...

[@jamesmcintoshjr]

woo hoo, was waiting for this one, thanks Max!

[@MaksimYuryev]

Nice! hope you enjoyed the video.

[@mousse4444]

Max will you ever review the Panasonic FZ2500; it is such a great camera.

[@Loopsrainforest]

Fantastic video Max. The quality of your reviews are outstanding & I end up watching most your videos even though I don't really shoot video.

[@CarloTimothy]

dig your reviews man! i just wanted to let u know from 00:27-00:33 there's weird banding ... i guess from a shutter speed sync issue?

[@MaksimYuryev]

Carlo Timothy My office lights suck.. the only way to avoid banding is to shoot at 1/40th but then you have too much motion blur. I'll be moving soon though.

[@BorinLeka]

I believe to lift the shadows you have to go -2 instead of +2. On the Fujis, if the shadow area looks blocked then minus settings lift it. Maybe the x-t20 is different. I cant say for sure because i do not own one.

[@BorinLeka]

With these settings the x-t20 seems to be a solid performer for video. Pro Neg Std. Sharpness -4, Shadow Tone -2, Highlight Tone -2.

[@JonPais]

Borin Leka right, on the X-T2, to reduce Contrast, go -2 shadows, assume it's the same with the X-T20, but I don't own the camera either.

[@MelbaTellez]

For someone who is primarily interested in photos... would you recommend the xt20 or the sony a6300?

[@MaksimYuryev]

I'd go xt-20.

[@MelbaTellez]

Thank you so much for replying! ☺

[@Adullam-TheSecretplace]

Yeah I tried the a6300 for couple weeks, its not for photography.

[@manuelabella2589]

i picked x-t20 a week ago over x-t2 because of the touch screen feature, i'm a left hand photographer so i hold the camera upside down using the touch+take photo option.

[@808islandlife_HI]

Great review as always. Keep up the great work.

[@usamaalshughry4967]

Very detailed well organized review. Thanks for sharing!

[@bh9262]

At 3:30 you said there was something enjoyable about the XT2 that made you want to go out and shoot. Did you mean shooting with the XT2 Over the XT20?

[@RobertMossack]

X-T1 user here. The deal breaker for me is no battery grip option on the X-T20. As fast as these cameras chew through batteries, a battery grip is a must for me. It can make the difference between getting the shot, or fumbling around trying to change out the battery and missing something important.

[@funniq]

Great review. Very thorough and nice pace. Thanks for sharing

[@d4vid0110]

Max, at 7:28, is that your photo/video processing workstation? What's the setup like?

[@JuanLopez-oz9kh]

Agree with your statement, about wanting to shoot. there is something about Fuji cameras, they call you to shoot them, unlike the DSLR which i use it for paid work and use my fuji for family fun shoots.

[@daoquang900]

I know it's kinda late, and not sure if you even still use Fuji xt20 or xt2 anymore. But I just bought an Xt20 as well and found out to change the contrast (make it less contrasty), you actually have to set the shadow to (-2) so that you can get brighter shadow. I know it's weird but that's the way Fujifilm setting works.

[@willgiovi]

Great review! Nice to see good 'ol Spokane in the test footage! :D

[@DmitryBrodsky007]

Another excellent review Max!

[@jheffhree]

This is the best XT20 review! Clearly made me understand more about its limitations. I'm just a casual shooter and this video helped me decide to buy this camera. Thank you so much Max! You are such an excellent Reviewer! Subbed!

[@MaksimYuryev]

Great choice!

[@KevinVelazquezAniPower]

jheffhree pay attention to firmware updates, unlike most camera companies, Fujifilm greatly improves their cameras through firmware updates such as being able to change iso during video now

[@PaulPetrutFilms]

great reviews ! I'm your fan. pls make a comparison between xt20 and Sony a6300 or 6500 for video. What do you recommend me to buy from from first two ! thank you !

[@Somecooltech1]

Hey Max what 3-axis gimbals do you recommend for mid size cameras like the GH5 ? I think if you made a video and picked one or two you thought were the best that video would be very popular. I saw the Nebula 5100 and its supposed to work really well. So well that it can work without balancing. Its got built in encoders in each motor too. Just curios about your thoughts and wanted to help you with an idea for a video too. Thanks!

[@MaksimYuryev]

Tech Connect I LOVE the crane. I've been meaning to do a review on it for at least 6 months now. Maybe soon! In my GH5 first look I have shots with it.

[@billmoyer3254]

comprehensive review,well done!!

[@TheMrBennito]

very informative, Max, thanks. I have this annoyingly simple approach: with my big hands, I prefer the larger camera when I have a choice. If the smaller camera would outperform the larger one, I would think twice though.

[@stephencosta6814]

Very good review bro keep up the good work

[@AnthonyBurnsSydney]

Wow, great review, you cover the camera well. Thank you.

[@LeeZavitz]

Nice shots dude!

[@Tonydaling]

Should I get this or the Panasonic G85??? I do love IBIS and am an aspiring photographer and videographer 50/50. I'm still an amateur though.

[@soundofthegardenwatc]

Should I get the x-t20 or a NX1? Want fast auto focus. Will be using it for basically everything. Weddings, portraits etc.

[@rodneytopor1846]

Great review. Can you turn the touch sensitivity of the rear screen off, to avoid changing the AF point with your nose while shooting through the VF? Can you move the selected AF point using the D-pad on the back, like you can on the X100S?

[@aronisink1]

GREAT REVIEW... Would really like to know what would be the best film simulation and settings to get a film like look in video without resorting to a film lut.. thanks..

[@sam_yang]

Those photos are killer. Awesome video.

[@MaksimYuryev]

Thanks!

[@enzosalvosa9750]

Great review!! just a question. what would be better - sony a6300 or the fuji x-t20? looking for camera for both photo and video shoot. thanks!!

[@christiansantiagophotography]

Great review as always, Max. I will disagree though with one thing: IBIS can't compensate for poor shooting technique, so I don't really miss it much on my XT-2s. If you know how to properly hold and brace the camera, it shouldn't be too much of an issue. And overall shooting handheld, at least imo, is not the most ideal situation anyway. I fear that in the end IBIS is just going to enable lazy, sloppy filmmaking in the same way that the super high ISO capabilities of the Sony cameras enable people to ignore proper lighting. It's my humble opinion that if you're competent enough in your shooting technique, the lack of IBIS should not deter you from the incredible image quality and performance of these cameras for video. Certainly, the picture quality and colors alone are miles ahead of Sony.

[@DVKmusicofficial]

Hello! You show us that on gimbal need turn off stabilization. What about a6500 when we shoot on gimbal should we turn off oss and IBIS? One more question on a6500 oss and ibis work together can you do test? Shoot only with oss, shot only with ibis and shoot with ibis and oss and compare results.?

[@MaksimYuryev]

6500 works fine! We will do a IBIS needed with Gimbal video sometime.

[@sonvfave]

weather sealing is a must for me after using both BUT nice review of a great value.. looks like almost the same camera as the bigger bro.. thank you for the review I ahoot a TON HAND HELD SO IBIS is a must

[@cactustweeter2890]

Cool light effect when opening the case.

[@charlottesimss9853]

Nice with setting the rear dial to ISO. I wish I could do that on my X-E1. I def prefer using that location as an ISO knob instead of one on top like the XT2. The location on that one is kind of a gimmick to make it feel more like a 35mm. Though I still prefer an ISO dial on top over a scene selection auto thingy

[@cameratests]

Both B&H links aren't working. Description goes to OM-D E-M1 mkii and pinned comment says "something is wrong here".

[@hankypanky4u]

Still wrong link!

[@Zz-vu2pf]

I love ur reviews, keep it up

[@rich3419]

Thanks for a great review. I decided that the camera has too many design flaws which diminish usability while actually taking photos. Thanks again.

[@roos6089]

Would this camerabody be sufficient for professional photography (no filming)? I'm still torn between the T2 and T20, I prefer the size of the T20 but now that the T3 is out, the price of T2 has dropped so it's making me doubt again.

[@p3rrypm]

X-T20 is maybe 80% of the X-T2, but it is not 90%. I owned the X-T20 and now the X-T2, I can say for sure, that the X-T2 is far superior to the X-T20. 4K F-Log PC Sync Socket Weather Resistance 1/8000 Mechanical Shutter Boost Mode and 14 FPS Customizable AF Tracking ISO Dial AF Joystick MUCH BETTER EVF! Photometry Dial for Metering Modes Much more comfortable to hold.

[@marilynweare6639]

Right now I have a Nikon D3300 with a rather heavy walk around lens (Sigma 18-250) for travel. The I'm considering the XT20 with the 18-55 kit lens. I shoot mostly all photos. My priorities are sharp quality photos in a light weight, not bulky camera for travel. Is this a decent upgrade for me? Thanks!

[@ryanthomas9306]

Marilyn Weare I used to have the 3200 and bought the x-t2 as a replacement. The jpgs look nice and the ecosystem is nice but I sometimes wish I just bought a sigma 18-35 and a monopod

[@sonvfave]

another note on IBIS it is much better than lens stabilizing when zooming.... and hh zooming with ibis using Em5-2 now selling for around 650$ new

[@just_eirik]

If they were to make a camera with IBIS, would they have to also make new lenses? Would the moving sensor move outside the edges of the image/light coming through the lens?

[@MaksimYuryev]

Not sure. It didn't work that way with the Sony cameras when they added IBIS.

[@at016]

Not sure if anyone commented here already, but I saw a video where that weird thing that happened with your video recording + IS was fixed by updating to the latest firmware on both body and 18-55 kit lens.

[@simeonkolev1231]

That OIS problem in video is huge problem. I leave OIS on my cameras always on when on gimbal because it corrects the shakes from it when they appear.

[@jonadol]

Hi, I'm planning on buying my first ever camera (which is a mirrorless cam). Photography is more of a hobby for me as of the moment. Which one do you recommend? Fujifilm XT20 or Sony A6000?

[@Raoh1st]

Very good review. Is the 1080p and video focus better on the XT2?

[@mudgie069]

The only downside I found when I looked at the xt20 at the Photography Show here in the UK was the viewfinder. I didn't like it at all. Other than that it's an excellent camera.

[@cactustweeter2890]

I've heard it both ways, but I would think that having OIS and the gimbal should be additive and reduce image shake the most. What's your experience with this Max?

[@1barnet1]

As Fuji nut myself i have to admit. You did a damn fine job summerizing the strengths and minor flaws of the system I would've used your links for my partners purchase if i would actually live in the US. So sorry can't get you the pennies.

Love my XT10 but a big drawback is the firmware. My Xt1 had much more updates and it seems to be the same for X-T20 and X-T2

[@dmt99vn]

if i use MF lenese on XT-20, so can i use touch screen taking photo ? And how about the battery life of XT-20 ? Is there overhead issue when shooting 4k video ?

[@tantsura]

+Max Yuryev Are you still have this camara? May I ask you to do an autofocus tests for this camera?

[@abhishijack]

Hey Max, I have been wanting to Purchase the Gh5. BUT, the autofocus has me thinking. Auto focus is important to me as I'll be doing mostly one man run and gun. Your opinion? You see any scope of improvement with any firmware updates?

[@KutWrite]

There's a setting having to do with shutter ANGLE that will make the focus almost instantaneous. Search YT for GH5 focus setting or something similar. You'll see what I mean.

[@HEREONOUTBAILEY]

Noise levels for the XT20 "similar" to the XT2? Shouldn't both cameras have identical image quality due to the fact they both share the same sensor and processor?

[@MaksimYuryev]

Yes they should and maybe they do but I didn't have an X-T2 to test side by side and at times two cameras with same sensor/processor the image/noise can be slightly different because of different processing algorithms so it safer to say similar or close than 100% the same.

[@towfiq2010]

Hello sir, thank you for sharing wonderful information with us. Your comment about both camera influence me buy one of this. However, some people share their experience about fuji xt20 and explain LCD screen behave weird. did you experience such issue with this camera ?

[@MaksimYuryev]

Thanks for watching! No, It worked great for me.

[@kellyli9973]

Would you guys recommend this or the Panasonic Lumix G85?

[@TiredEyes77]

Kelly Li I'm wondering the same thing!

[@alvaeon]

I chose the g85 for video as that is what I needed at the time! Looking at the xt20 for stills only! For examples my channel is all shot on the lumix g85

[@minuteman2006]

I see you live in my old hood. Spokampton. :) great video btw. very well explained. Thank you!

[@eduardolima3936]

the solde separeted grip helps a lot!

[@Jame771]

Would u buy one if u already have nikon d3s and d700, and bunches of 2.8 lenses and also 1.4 lenses?

[@fabioflx]

It's very normal you get that weird behavior when you use lens image stabilization on a tripod. It's just the reflection of the stabilitazion on an already stable base. Infacts, some cameras, as of expensive lenses like the Canon 70-200 IS, have sensors which compensate this, so it's surely not a camera issue.

[@miroslavbula]

13:00 Why is there such a big difference? Sony 6500 has a clearly much better image quality - colors and sharpness....

[@rodneytopor1846]

Is it true that the AE bracketing is a maximum of 3 frames at +/-1 EV? If so, that's a serious limitation for landscape photographers in contrasting light.

[@andrisetiawan_ch]

Hey there max, I would like to ask you about the shutter button / power switch on the x-t20, did you realize there's some wiggle when you turn on and off the switch? Or it is just mine?

[@Ex4ltation]

When deciding between the A6300 and the Xt20 for both video and stills, which would you choose? The budget is around 1500, so i could get either a brand new XT20 with the 18-55, some extra batteries and maybe the handgrip, or a used a6300 for around 850, with either a 18-105 f4 gmaster lense, or the sigma 19mm f2,8 + 30mm 2,8. Or maybe even with the sigma 30mm 1.4. Some extra information regarding my dilemma. I think both of them handle equally well to me, maybe with a slight edge to the fuji (not enough to justify the purchase solely based on that fact). I am a little bit worried that the 4k quality of the xt20 is a lot worse than the 4k of the sony (line skipping vs oversampling), however i am also concerned about sonys worse lense selection (native), and fujis worse lense selection for adapted lenses. So, all in all, i am completely unsure which direction to take, since i also intend to stick with the system i am choosing for a certain time. What do you guys think? And thanks in advance :)

[@MaksimYuryev]

Felix_R Paid work Sony, Personal use Fuji. 👍

[@Ex4ltation]

Max Yuryev Thanks for the quick answer :) What is your reasoning for prefering the sony over the fuji for professional work? Is it due to the better 4k and larger lense selection (metabones adapter), or due to something completely different, like the fuji lacking certain aspects needed for professional work?

[@MaksimYuryev]

Felix_R Yes that and the IBIS + internal LOG and really good pre amps (no meet to record external audio for many jobs). Also 120fps 1080 and the clear image zoom (sensor crop) is really nice!

[@Ex4ltation]

Another quick question. Now im also heavily considering buying the g85. Seems to tick all of the boxes for what i want with a camera. However, i am a little bit worried about it's stills capabilities, since i mainly shoot photos, compared to videos. 70/30 maybe. Do you, by any chance, know how the MFT sensor compares to the APSC sensors quality wise, and if it really is a big step down in image/noise quality. Thanks in advance :)

[@Andromacky]

Felix_R in my decision making I was comparing the g85 and Sony 6300 I went with Sony. everywhere I look picture and video quality sony wins plus it's not micro 4/3 larger mega pixels and for only a little more. the G85 has more features though like weather sealed and flip screen

[@THANATOXX7]

I’m think to buy a camera but still can’t decide which one do you think is better the xt 20 or the canon 77d

[@sergioserramusic]

Are you going to review the Canon 6D mark II? I would love to know your opinions on that camera :)

[@zurih]

Hey Max, What would be your suggestion for a hybrid camera for family photos & video? The thing that always makes me think twice about Fuji X-T2/20 is that it doesn't have IBIS and I'm sometimes in situations where I got a prime on my camera and I'd like to shoot a video without worrying about shake. I currently using the Panasonic GX85 + 15mm F1.7 prime for videos and I'm not satisfied at all with the auto focus during videos, especially when shooting my kids running around. Would appreciate your honest opinion. Thank you

[@MaksimYuryev]

A6500 if you don't mind the worse ergonomics and worse screen. Or G85 if your ok with a bit worse low light and worse photo quality and bad video autofocus. 80D if you don't mind larger size and no 4K.

[@mountainhobo]

When shooting stills and using EVF, can you use rear LCD as a focus trackpad with your thumb, as you could on Panasonics?

[@MaksimYuryev]

+mountainhobo I don't think so.

[@wernerohr5565]

Hi Max, thank you for the video; In terms of image quality, would u prefer the x-t20 over the sony a7 II ? (video functionalities ar e not that imortant) thank you for your comment.

[@MaksimYuryev]

werner ohr no I'd get the a72 for the larger sensor and better lowlight

[@wernerohr5565]

thankyou!

[@alexanderharden7307]

The video issue you faced with the kit lens:Update the firmware and you're absolutely done,no problems.Like a new lens.

[@MaksimYuryev]

[@antonioschamaletsos8962]

Great Review!

[@jangarcia1338]

Hi Max! I own a Panasonic G7 whcich I use for video and an omd em10 mk1 for photos. I have been planing to upgrade and have better photo quality as I do a bit more photo than video. I am a hobbyist who got into photography with mft. I want better photo quality but would still like to have good video quality. As I read and you also said the xt20 4K video quality is not as good as the xt2, it doesn't make a complete readout of the sensor. Something like it skips pixels or something like that. My question is will the video quality (sharpness and detail, dynamic range, color...) be as good as my G7?

[@MaksimYuryev]

+Jan Garcia Yes as good or better. :)

[@ZXTech]

Wait..... isnt the front dial reprogrammable for iso now after a firmware update?

[@MaksimYuryev]

ZX Tech. Maybe now but not when I shot this review.

[@ZXTech]

Yeah I understand. Good review anyways! Do you think if I were to shoot mainly video, but enjoy casual photography, this camera will be good? I know the panasonics and sonys are better for video, but I really awnt the analogue nature of the fuji. Its not the best, but is it still good for video? I didnt feel you dwelled deep into that topic.

[@MrGlennbrath]

Hello! Do you know when will the xt-3 will be released?

[@daviddecouto960]

Really helpful video. Thanks!

[@Raoh1st]

Is the ISO dial issue while recording video fixed with the new firmware update?

[@TheR1chn]

Hi does it have a 5 axis stabiliser in the camera?

[@aka.Xavier]

Another great video thanks Max! I have a question regarding to this offer Sony Europe drops the price of the A7rII and A7sII (up to 600 Euro cheaper!)"" What do you think ? should we go for it or just wait the next cameras ?

[@IstoryangPagibig]

Orex Bayn link? I'll jump ship on a7s2

[@aka.Xavier]

www.sonyalpharumors.com/sony-europe-drops-price-a7rii-a7sii-600-euro-less/

[@jangarcia1338]

Hi Max! You said it only uses contrast based af in video, is it the same with the xt2? Between the xt2 or xt20 and olympus em1mkii for 70% photos and 30% video (hobbyist/casual/enthusiast) which one would you choose? Thanks a lot in advance!

[@MaksimYuryev]

If you can afford the x-t2 and don’t mind the larger size compared to x-t20 definitely go for xt2. It uses phase detection and is a much better video camera than em1 and also better photo camera in almost every way.

[@deri2696]

How about A7ii vs XT2? Whats better?

[@planetposeidon1361]

Max Yuryev Would you recommend this for astrophotography using the 18-55 kit lens? Im still comparing this camera compared to the D7200 18-140mm kit.

[@MrMcjamison]

The Samyang/Rokinon 12mm f/2 is a great option for astrophotography on Fuji. Manual aperture & focus only, but the milky way doesn't move very fast.

[@planetposeidon1361]

MrMcjamison Thank you for the suggestion, I bought the Fuji X-T20 instead (trying mirrorless) and will save up for that kinda lens Sir. 🤙🏼

[@themysticfocus]

i just wanted to say your family is beautiful! Nice video.

That's awesome, its great to see a camera can do 3d printing now, that's a great advancement, thanks for the info, I really appreciate it.
