as a canon r5 owner, I can say that the r5 is truly an amazing camera, but do to the price of lenses, im actually selling my camera for a fujifilm xh2. the lenses are just more affordable for me at this time right now. plus i love the files and colors of the fuji more.

This is why many have switched. But just keep in mind that there are compromises, mostly in the AF speed/accuracy. Also, the larger sensor gives more latitude for editing. But those Fuji colors! They are the best.

I moved to fuji not because a budget reason, but because I do love its natural colors (and their damn good film simulations), its aesthetic and lightweight. I enjoy way more shooting with Fuji than with Canon.

I’ve pretty much shot everything. From Sony, Nikon, Fuji and most recently Canon. I love Canon but the price of admission is just way too high. I found myself stretching my budget everytime. I got the R7 and was happy with it for a few months but that brings me back to the X-H2. Since I’m already at APSC, why not go with a much better ecosystem for cost.

Jesse I agree completely, and for the work I do, Fuji X Series does the job just as well as a Canon full frame.

We use Sony α1, Sony α7RV and Fuji X-H2. They are all good cameras. Sony AF is better; Fuji color is better. Some great choices compared to a few years ago. Focus breathing comp (α7RV only) a nice feature that should be on the α1. DR comp on Fuji actually not bad.

Both cameras, no doubt can do a wonderful job in the hands of a competent photographer. I invested heavily in the Fuji lens lineup, as Canon RF lenses became cost prohibitive for me. I still would like for Fuji to continue to improve their autofocus algorithms, particularly for sports/ action photography. Overall I have been satisfied with Fuji & although I loved shooting with Canon camera bodies & “L” lenses, I do not regret switching to the Fuji ecosystem. Nice job on this video, Pete. Best wishes for your channel.😊

Thank you Jeffrey! I agree with you and have been very happy with the XT5.

I think that when it comes to pros they can make any camera do a great job. And, with portraits/head shots, lighting skills could be more important than what the camera can do. As an amateur, cost is a much bigger factor than it is for a pro whose equipment will be paid for through client work. I researched the cost of lenses before choosing a camera and Fuji's performance for the money really made a difference there. At some point down the road I will probably want to upgrade my X-T3, but for now it's just fine. Hopefully, there will be some great used deals on the X-T5 some day! Have a great day Pete!

Thanks! I still need to get a Fringer but haven't gotten around to it. I think my 70-200mm will work great on my Fuji cameras.

We have discussed the RF lens vs EF adapted cost to performance several times. What photographers vs clients see are not the same. My reasoning for adding the XH2 to my rig was really about the in-camera recipes that need little to no editing for PERSONAL use. The R6/105mm is my paid client portrait headshot go to when I am willing to spend the time to edit. For my personal work, I want to do as little post shoot work as possible. Later this year I am hoping to add an adapted Sigma 50-100 to the XH2 and see how that works for headshot work. For someone starting over 100% say due to theft/damage. Going to the more expensive full frame might not be the best option. That being said, I would LOVE a Nikon Z8 and Z70-200 but my bank acct says NO! :)

Really impress with your work, great images. I am currently running 3 systems (It isn't worth me selling my Nikon D850 and lenses), with the X-H2, and GFX100s being my main systems and my assistant is using a Canon R5, so I know the camera well. The reality is really there are no really bad mirrorless cameras now days, with the camera companies having a pretty good handle on all areas of design. The Canon R5, is a more practical camera, but the X-H2 is slightly smaller and I am a big fan of their f2 primes, which really make the Fujifilm X system portable. What I don't like about the X-H2 are the front and back dials, which just don't feel as nice as the X-H1 dials. Personally, I also much prefer the LCD of the X-H1 but I understand, why Fujifilm put in a Flippy screen. The Canon is very nice and whilst I am not a Canon fanboy, I do think they did an exceptional job with the camera. So anyone wanting to buy should think about what they are going to be shooting and also realise that pixel peeping is a mugs game. People viewing the images are going to be happy with either companies images but the Canon will have a small advantage in low light and dynamic range.

Is the R5 with the 85 1.2 pro probably higher image quality than the XH2 with a viltrox 75 ... probably- but ONLY if you zoom in and at 2-3x of the price. Handling is great on both. Video is better on the Fuji. Size and weight is better on the Fuji. Film sims are a game changer for my work flow- even if I also shoot raw- its so nice to show my clients an image at the shoot that looks ready to go

Hey Pete. Prior to trading out my equipment to my current Fuji X-T5, I owned the Cannon R, which was a great camera. It was my first pro-quality camera set up and due to the insane cost of Cannon RF lenses, I chose to use an adapter and bought a few of the EF lenses (Canon 24-105 L Series, nifty 50, and a Sigma 18-35mm F1.8). While these lenses were less expensive than their RF counterparts, the extra length and overall weight of the rig was ridiculous for carry during hikes and events. I moved over the Fuji system about a year later and haven't looked back. I've been extremely impressed with the value of Fuji's offering. I may try another brand someday but not planning to switch back anytime soon. Please PICK ME PETE. 📸

Better than sony sure but still not the same.

Canon could have more comfortable shutter button due more natural angle of finger. In case of this level of cameras You bassicly decide between brand, system and sensor size. Both of them are amazing :) Fuji got cheaper glasses and overall smaller size with them that gives advantage on travels, also film sims gives less futzning in daily non-professional usage. I was Fuji daily shooter, but due fact i shoot with constant light a lot, i would sway to R5 if someone ask me whats better for me.

I bought a Nikon Z8 to replace my X-H2 after only 4 months of ownership. Had too many issues with the AF on the fuji. Previously, I owned the X-S10 and Fuji was claiming that the new autofocus is a lot better on the new cameras, so instead of changing system then and there like I planned, I gave fuji another chance. I'd say their claims and demo videos are very misleading and don't represent, what the camera is capable of. The tracking always seems to work great, but lots of images are still not in focus despite the box being on target and green, confirming focus. Of course, they never show the actual results, only the tracking. For studio work and portraits, it may be great, for sports and wildlife, not so much, sadly.

I totally get it. For portraiture it doesn't make a noticeable difference as you mentioned. Personally, I have not had issues of the box being on target while the focus is off, but I have heard others mention it. The other thing is that it depends on which lens you are using. Some Fuji lenses struggle while others do a much better job. This really hurts them because I can use my 15 year old Canon lenses on the R5 and they do an amazing job with AF and quality.

The FUJI should have been a Full frame sensor. Then it would be Perfect .just a shame they have gone shitty APSC instead

Не должен. У FUJI есть средний формат GFX100II. Это лучшая камера с таким датчиком.

Neither
