TheCameraStoreTV Fujifilm X-T20 Review: “A Fantastic Winner. Beautiful, Capable and Affordable”

TheCameraStoreTV tested the Fujifilm X-T20 on the streets of Tokyo and the Fujifilm Taiwa factory!

Here are some excerpts… but check out the full field test at their youtube channel

  • Intuitive and fast to handle
  • very fast focussing
  • smaller and lighter than X-T2, which is why it makes it more appealing for travels
  • touch screen “fast enough”
  • delay when switching between EVF and LCD… could be faster
  • Great video, but 4K not as sharp as on X-T2 (NOTE: I remind you that the X-T20 uses “half line skipping ” in 4K, as opposed to the X-T2, which reads every line on the sensor. This is to prevent the smaller X-T20 to overheat. Fuji Guy Bully says here 4K with half line skipping is technically possible also for X-Pro2)
  • A fantastic winner, that is beautiful, capable and affordable

P.S.: Episode filmed on the Fujifilm X-T2.
P.P.S.: The Fujifilm GFX 50S episode will follow soon
P.P.P.S.: this blog post was written right after I left the eye doctor for a visit. I can hardly read what I wrote, so pardon me if you will find even more typos than usual… but for you guys, full dedication… I’ll write even half-blind :)

And then I Thought: “Stop Waiting for the X-E3, and get the X-T2/Zero (X-T20)” … Did Fujifilm Hit the Sweet Spot with the X-T20?

Fujifilm GFX 50s (Ken Wheeler) Vs. Sony A9 (Jason Lanier) Shootout :: Kevin Mullins GFX Review :: GFX Problem :: Fringer Adapter Available (GFX zone)

Ok… this is probably the first real life shootout between the Fujifilm GFX 50s and the Sony A9. And the guys engaged is this (friendly) battle are Ken Wheeler (the angry photographer) and Jason Lanier (a well known Sony Artisan). You can check out the shootout at Jason Lanier Youtube.

A quick note before I share the usual GFX roundup. Fringer Zhao notified us all here at the GFX facebook group, that his Contax 645 – GFX Smart Adapter is now available at fringeradapter. I already told you last week here, that it will come this week.
