Oppenheimer Movie Photos Taken with Fujifilm X-H1 and These XF Lenses

Oppenheimer

Here is a little story for all those, who keep repeating the mantra that you need Full Frame cameras to get professional work done.

The official images of the blockbuster movie Oppenheimer have been taken with the following Fujifilm X series gear by the photographer Melinda Sue Gordon.

That’s according to Fujifilm Ukraine’s post on Instagram, which you can see down below.

And that’s not a surprise, as Melinda also took the backstage images of another Nolan blockbuster, Dunkirk, with Fujifilm X gear. In that case the camera used was the Fujifilm X-Pro2.

And keep in mind Melinda is doing this professional work with a camera, the X-H1, which according to the competent testing of photography master Jared Polin does not even allow you to move the focus point with the joystick. Yep, the same camera that snapped the top winning award at the World Press Photo.

So will this finally end the debate if you need Full Frame for professional work?

Certainly not. The internet world lives in a bubble created by influencers that not even reality is capable of bringing to reason.

And yet, the reality looks like this:

Not enough?

The WORST Thing About Fujifilm (and Other Brands) according to Chris & Jordan (PP)

Share

In their latest episode, Chris and Jordan run over the worst things of every camera brand.

And after some nice praise for the Fujifilm system overall, they express their main complaint, which are:

  • Menu System needs imrpovements: for example, face detection and subject detection are separate items, slowing you down unnecessarily
  • Fujifilm cameras are more prone to write errors and bad surprises when using certain memory cards. To their credit, though, Fujifilm lists the compatible memory cards. But with other brands, they don’t experience as many issues when using non recommended memory cards
