You're my absolute favourite YT photographer. Not only are your photos brilliant (soooo talented) but you present so much useful information and in a straightforward, articulate way. Thanks!

You answered so many of my confusion and difficulties I still have. Finally got around to buying that XT3 guide! Cheers Roman 🙌

Well timed video, Roman! After a couple months of setting aside money and watching your videos vicariously, I got the X-T3 last week. I'm working my way through your guide and it's quickly helped me get my head around this wonderfully complicated camera. Thank you for the help and keep doing what you're doing, man!

Your XT-4 guide is great. Very helpful, particularly in customizing buttons and dials.

Thanks very much for this video Roman. Truly appreciated

Thank you! So many questions answered!

Some good reminders here from your previous videos too. Thanks Roman! Can't wait to see your take on post the Fuji X Summit too! 😀

Great breakdown. Thank you for making it make sense.

I'm dropping in 6 months after posting this to thank you. This video just unlocked soooo much of the esoteric features of my Fujifilm XA10, and I can now have even more control and options when I'm out and about taking photos. Thank you so much!

This is a really helpful video Roman. Thank you for your no BS approach to photography and gear. I've been scratching around for about a year with my XT4 and have never felt fully at home with my button/dials set up however I think this will be a solid step forward. Thanks Dude. Oh - and keep the street scenes of London coming. I live in Aus now and haven't been home for years so it's great to see a bit of 'ol blighty

Thoroughly great content as ever, I sincerely appreciate you sharing all this. Looks like you may have updated your XT-4 button assignments so for sure am downloading the new PDF’s today. Wicked!

Upgrading from the X-T1 to the X-T3 really opens up how useful a lot of these settings are. The responsiveness of the X-T3 has changed how I take photos (in terms of how I set up the camera) so this video diving deeper into these settings and their uses is quite helpful. On the X-T1 I was much more of a set all 3 parts manually then take the photo. With the X-T3 its improved responsiveness has made playing around with letting the camera make some of the secondary choices a fun and challenging way to change things up.

thank you for the helpful video I just recently bought my first camera and its a XT-2 and this guide was very helpful for understanding camera settings

Thanks so much Roman. Needed this.

Thank you so much for the video. I learned so much in such a short time watching and now I'm off to try your ideas out today.. Again Thank you for the great videos you make. Learned so much from them..

Excellent synopsis thanks 🤙

This is well timed. I was just having a discussion on why you needed to know how to set the auto settings & when to override the auto settings. I was told I was being old fashioned because the technology knows more than we do. I typically shoot in aperture but the auto ISO has saved a few hiking pictures with the constant moving from shadow to sunlight.

This is brilliant thanks. I just bought a used XT3. Roman’s camera guides are well worth the money.

Roman! You are great, my friend! I watched a lot of videos. But I've never seen anyone else explain it in as much detail as you. While everyone is talking about superficial things, you get into the situation and tell it and you help amateurs like me. Glad to come across your channel! :) Best regards from Türkiye!

Back button focus allows you: 1) Press and hold to get continious 2) Press and release to get single 3) Press release and recompose to get AFL result

Great video Roman! Thanks so much.

Great video. I learned a lot. Thank you. It would be nice if you created a bundle of some of your guides since some of us have more than one Fujifilm camera. I will like a bundle of the presets with X-100V and X-T3 guides. Cheers!

Muchas gracias Don Roman!!👊

If I enjoy photography is because I almost fully understand my X100V and my XT3. And if I do is thanks to you and Pal2Tech. You are TOP.

Thanks Roman. Thanks for this guide very user friendly. Auto Iso I have been using for a while but after watching Your video I will adjust it a bit. I use the Fujifilm XT-20. I now subscribe to Your channel.

Thanks for the video. Very good content.

Very helpful. Thank you

The exposure lock is very important when using spot metering in aperture or shutter priority mode. When you recompose the shot the settings will change to wherever the spot is on unless you lock the exposure.

I just got into the hobby with an xt5 and I would be so lost without your help. Thanks man!

If only all KZread videos were as succinct and to-the-point helpful as this one!

This was a super useful watch - thank you! Gained a sub 😁

thank-you Roman this is an excellent video

Man thanks for this video! It made a few things I wasn’t grasping click 🤙

Great stuff. Thanks. 👍👍

Thank you Roman. I have seen this video 3/4 times. I found it really useful and it would be great if you would do a follow up, talking about other settings that might be worth mastering. Thank you

Like the tips, how different people work is amazing, i have no lock for focus button, as i use back button focus and took the af away from the shutter. Is a habit i gained shooting canon dslrs before the xt4.

Thanks for the video Roman, I learnt a lot. Can you do a camera guide for the Fujifilm xS10. That will be great. Than you again for the video

I feel your videos are really boiled down and it's easy to learn from, I enjoy your content!

Really cool Tipps!

I've been using a 17-40mm on a FF lately using a lot of 1/30 - 1/40 shutter speed (landscape bright sunny days), auto ISO in AP underexposed. Some photo's I've been using F/16 or 18 (all handheld) Kind of eerie photos with a painting like look to them, a nice blur. I'll lock the focus on something like a distant tree with the sun so everything else is kind of dark, nice colors/ contrast. I must have lost my mind. .. lol

Very, very useful

So, so, so interesting 👍👍

I just bought my first Fujifilm camera, and it’s an X-T1. Probably a big ask, but I don’t suppose you’d like to write a guide for the oldest camera in the lineup? I’d buy it :). I already bought your presets. Thanks for all you do!

This is a nice, succinct compilation of things you've covered in other videos and is quite helpful. I'm wondering how you practiced. Did you pick one scenario at a time and shoot it many times until it was locked into muscle memory? Did you pick a scenario where light was going to change and force yourself to switch between to scenarios? Did you take notes about settings as you experimented in various situations? Thanks again for a helpful video. Have a great week.

Thank you so much!!!!

What shutter type and dynamic range settings do you use?

Will there be a camera guide for X-T5?

When using center/spot metering does it set the highlights as mid tones and then you're using the exposure compensation to increase them? Or are you ETTR?

One thing I've learned about the Auto ISO settings is that while the camera will not exceed the ISO range, the camera will prioritize exposure in lower light and set SS below whatever you've set as your minimum. I discovered this doing street shooting with my SS minimum set to 1/250. In lower light my XT-3 dropped the SS to below 1/100 in a couple shots. So beware of this. I do love your recommended settings, however.

A workaround is to set the shutter speed manually. Auto-ISO will still work but the shutter speed won't go below what you set.

@randallcotten5069

@@enshongmiranda I agree. You can't really trust the auto ISO shutter speed setting. Another tip: I use the back thumb dial on my X-T3 to fine tune the ISO setting.

how do you use AEL and back button focus at the same time ?

What glasses are you wearing dude they are cool

Hi Roman, can you pls record one video how you using eterna bleach bypass film simulation, I love this simulation but I want to improve skills with this :))

At least on a Fuji it's possible to set AEL as a modified back button focus so once you press it once the focus stays locked until you change the setting, rather than have to keep it held down. Works great for quick focus and recompose.

Highlight Priority mode on my Nikon Z5 has been a godsend. Now only if the autofocus were better…😒

Where’s the X-T30 Gang? I got an X-T30 last year but I rarely see people talking about it 😅

Other than AF, CF and SF, some camera come with FF for video. What is the main purpose for FF? I try using CF to zoom but focusing failed. Using FF is ok.

How do you do this with an a7IV?

Why not keeping the iso on 160 min value for all for 3 auto ISOs, lets say for example you go inside somewhere, you choose the 2nd ISO setting, then go out again but forget to change ISO settings, that will be helpulf on that situation doesnt it?

Just use manual exsposure and manual wb.

What camera did you use to film this video? Looks great

Welcome to my country and İstanbul. If you intend to come to Cappadocia I would love to make a content with you to my turkish viewers

Unfortunately Fuji seems to prioritise exposure instead of the minimum shutter speed value with auto iso and auto shutter speed. For example, if you set auto iso from 160 to 3200 and 1/250 but you are in a dark environment, the camera will go below 1/250. This does not make sense to me, when I was shooting with Nikon the camera has always used my settings, I prefer an underexposed photo instead of a blurry one

it only goes slower than what u chose (all cameras do) if it reaches the max iso without having a good exposure. Use exposure comp if you like your shots under exposed.

auto iso= u choose SS and aperture A priority= camera chooses SS and iso (if you are using auto iso) according to the Aperture u chose

canon m50 doesnt have the first point you mentioned about minimum f or shutter speed....that's a big problem. It only has max iso limit. For street photographers canon m50 is not a good tool expect that it's tiny

Haven’t seen it yet but I’d imagine they are iso, aperture and exposure time? ;)

Well have a look and find out 👌🏻

Shooting in Manual all the time, I find that the easiest thing to do is first select an iso that is proper to the environment and stick with it. Then I select an aperture for the scene in accordance to the septh of field I end and after that I select a shitter speed that's appropriate for the exposure I need (creatively speaking). If it's too slow, I open up a bit or crank the iso. I never used any manual mode or compensation tools on my camera. I think it's a good guide but it's not as good as YOU to determine the correct exposure for your style.of photography.

Maybe if you took off your sunglasses you wouldn't need to adjust your exposure levels so much! 😉 Hehe... Nah... I'm just messing with you.... Being silly. 🤪

Just slap it on auto Or just panorama every shot... 👌😂

I do not agree with the first 9 minutes. In stead of helping the camera to get correct exposure, it’s easier to go full manual and program the iso on the front dial.
