Fuji X-T1, X-T2 – A New Way of Seeing!

NEW GUEST POST FEATURE

guest post by Philip Sutton: philipsuttonphotography website + Instagram @finartfoto

Before I get to the point of this posting, I will give a little bit of background to add some perspective to my thoughts. I started my photographic journey way back in the film days. I shot for many years for a Stock Library in Sydney Australia. You know the deal – the generic girl with glossy white teeth eating a red shiney apple, or the squeaky clean couple with their 2.2 kids having a picnic under the perfect umbrella-shaped tree. All fairly boring stuff, bit it kept my artistic flair alive and helped to pay the bills. I still worked as a teacher (my main source of income), but I was able to make a healthy supplement to my earnings by selling ‘stock’. Back in those days the Nikon F3, then the F4 were the weapons of choice. Due to family reasons, I had a break from photography for about 10 years, and of course when I returned everything had gone digital.

For the last 6 years now I have travelled Asia extensively (usually for 3 months of the year), shooting Fine Art images for my website. My recent weapons of choice were the Nikon D700 and D3X. After thinking long and hard how I could lighten my burden from dragging these huge DSLR’s around in the tropical heat of Asia, I eventually threw caution to the wind and in 2012/13 I sold all of my Nikons and lenses and bought a Fuji X100, X-Pro1 and some lenses. On a good day, the X100 was just OK, but the X-Pro1 experiment was an unmitigated disaster. That trip to Asia in 2012 was highlighted with mutterings and expletives all aimed at the Version 1 Firmware of my X-Pro1 and its lack of focusing ability. I returned back home with not many useable photos and immediately (at great expense), sold all of the Fuji gear and bought another D3X with a selection of lenses.

NEW Fujifilm X-T2 and EF-X500: Hands-on Overview with Jerry from The Fuji Guys on youtube

DigitalRev Fujifilm X-T2 Test: “Get Excited Sport Fans: the X-T2 does Exactly what it Promises. Fuji has a Winner!”

Fujifilm X-T2: USA: BHphoto / AmazonUS / Adorama / CANADA: AmazonCA / EUROPE: AmazonDE / Calumentphoto DE / AmazonUK / AmazonITA / AmazonFR / AmazonESP / PCHstore / WexUK / AUSTRALIA: CameraPro

DigitalRev (without Kai) shared its Fujifilm X-T2 First Impressions on youtube.

I recommend you to go directly to minute 6:00 to see how the X-T2 compares to the X-Pro2 when tracking a flying drone. The X-T2 has been set to Electronic Shutter and 14fps shooting (no blackout).

From their conclusions by tracking the drone:

It’s amazing. Only 1 shot was out of focus, and it’s purely my fault! With this Autofocus System, Fujifilm has a winner in their hands! I had a lot more keepers with the X-T2 compared to the X-Pro2.

For Sport fans: Get excited! The X-T2 is exactly what it promises… and a little bit more

They also say the larger Viewfinder and refresh rate helps so much to better track the subject.

I remind you that Fujifilm said that the X-Pro2 will get the new improved AF-algorythm of the X-T2 in a Firmware udpate on October. So I guess there won’t be such a significant AF-discrepancy between the two flagships after the udpate. However, keep in mind that the new Fuji X-T2 AF-Tracking Custom Settings will not be implemented on the X-Pro2 via Firmware update. So for sports, you better go for the X-T2.

And get a grip, too :-)

Fujifilm X-T2 Roundup :: Video, Sports and Stills… the Best Mirrorless Allrounder?

X-T2: Joe Ng x Sports at Fujifilm

Fujifilm X-T2: USA: BHphoto / AmazonUS / Adorama / CANADA: AmazonCA / EUROPE: AmazonDE / Calumentphoto DE / AmazonUK / AmazonITA / AmazonFR / AmazonESP / PCHstore / WexUK / AUSTRALIA: CameraPro

Lot’s of great feedback about the Fujifilm X-T2 so far. The Stills are great (no surprise), the Autofocus Tracking and Accuracy seems to be vastly improved (see TCSTV Video Review) and big surprise… 4K shooting works. No moiré, no overheating, sharp and nice images.

The Fujifilm X-T2 is Fujifilm’s most complete camera… and if all the initial excellent feedback will get confirmed in future reviews, then it might be one of the best mirrorless allrounder out there… if not the best. And if only the X-Pro2 could get those AF tracking custom settings, too….

So let’s continue our X-T2 Coverage:
