I'm with you, Norman. That's one of the #1 things I love about the Fujifilm cameras. I spent enough time at my computer as it is, I don't want to spend tons of additional time editing and processing my images in order for them to look good. Plus, I love the challenge and satisfaction of trying to get it right in the camera. My goal in life is to walk away from the scene with an image I love, not walk away with an image I have to go process later. What Fuji do you use and what do you like to photograph?

@@DanBaileyPhoto I bought my wife the x-t10 recently and paired it with the XC 15-45mm and I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the images that pair produces SOOC.

The SOOC images from that camera are spectacular. After trying his X-T2, I ordered an X-E3 (same sensor in a smaller and lighter body).

Hello Dan. You mentioned lenses from Fuji. At this point in time, 2024, I own 3 Fuji lenses with my old XT1. The 35 mm, f. 1;4 - The 60 mm, f.2,4 - The 18-55 kit Zoom which is actually very lovely. And I also bought a Meike 25 mm, f. 1;8 Manuel lens. A some point in the future I’ll probably go for an XT5 ❤❤

That's a very good lens kit. I have the 35 f/2 and 18-55. And if you like the X-T1, then I think you'd really like the X-T5. The X-T1 was, and still is a fantastic camera, but with the X-T2 on, they made some slight, but fundamental changes that make for better performance and usability, and have added a host of new creative features. I LOVED shooting with the X-T1, and to me, the X-T5 has all that original mojo, but with much better performance.

Hi Dan! Great fun watching this video and seeing all the great pix from the Anchorage area. I spent many hours shooting at Potter Marsh, especially the terns, with my XT-2. And it's really my go to camera for BIF with 100-400mm.

I tried the Fuji System w/ a used X-E1 - I'm also a great abuser, squeezing 120.000+ frames out of that little cam! After that I was convinced and bought a brand new X-T2, when at that time I think the model was about 2 years old.

I've been enjoying your "Journey" series, and this one hit home, as it was the X-T2 that pulled me into the Fuji camp. I was contentedly using my 3rd Nikon DSLR, a D750, for both client work and nature photography, when I received notice that my name had been drawn in a gear-giveaway I'd totally forgotten about. I almost ignored the notice, chalking it up to spam, but fortunately I looked into it, and soon had a pile of great gear on my doorstep, including an X-T2/18-55mm combo. It didn't take long to fall in love with the size and weight, the ergonomics and the performance. As I began to work it into my professional gig workflow, I found that my clients couldn't care less about whether I was shooting full frame or APS-C, and soon I found myself filling out the glass inventory, etc., and my D750 began to collect dust. Fast-forward to the present, and I have retired, for the 3rd time, gone totally Fuji, adding an X-T30 to replace an Olympus I'd used as a small pocketable camera, and I couldn't be happier, shooting now for just the fun of it, and for serving others. Hey, thanks for the workshops you've done at Kenmore Camera. You're always welcome in this part of the NW.

Especially I love the IQ the Fuji cameras produce, so up to now I very seldom take RAWs, mostly JPGs and most of them SOOC. Right now I am trying out the different features of my X-T4, and especially the Auto Focus Bracketing feature. I am surprised by how beautiful images you can get by using this feature.

Thanks Dan! X-T2 was a game-changer for me. Although I sometimes enjoy the process of taking a raw file and diving into post-processing, it was the amazing film simulation and JPEG quality that brought so much joy for me. On top of the film simulations were the great creative modes. Instead of "I'll deal with it in post" I started thinking more about creating in-camera. It felt more akin to shooting transparencies of old with Velvia or Acros film. Forcing myself to really consider how my exposure was going to influence the jpeg pushed me back into a more creative zone in the field. I wanted to get each jpeg perfect. Where would I lose highlights, where would the darks be too dark? The wonderful advantage of being able to change these modes and get these wonderful "film" effects from shot to shot just made it so much more fun! Sure, you can shoot RAW, or RAW+JPEG, and change your film mode after that fact, but I really loved the challenge of trying to get it perfect "in the moment." The jpeg quality is so awesome. I channeled my old way of looking at things when I was shooting 4x5 transparencies and really couldn't waste an expensive sheet of film. All that being said, of course, I still shoot RAW, too. Sometimes I see a scene and I think, man, i can't wait to get that into Lightroom and Photoshop and just play with it. I chose not to replace it with the X-T3 or X-T4, but depending on how the X-H2 turns out (hopefully it isn't delayed past fall), that may be the one I decide to add, but I won't be getting rid of my X-T2. Thanks again, Dan for sharing your X adventure. It's been very entertaining.

Hey Ryan, thanks for your comment! I'm glad to hear that you're enjoying the creative libration that's offered from this style of shooting. I'm a huge fan of not deferring your creativity until later, and instead exercising it in the moment, when you're immersed in the sensory experience of the moment. And when you combine the slight limitations that JPEG inherently offers over shooting RAW and processing everything to perfection later, you gain an entirely different approach that can actually lead to a greater sense of creative exploration and satisfaction. It will be interesting to see what Fuji comes up with this summer, but until then, keep having fun with your X-T2! What are you shooting with it these days?

Cool. The X-T4 is a very capable video camera. I'm sure it will prove quite useful for your projects!

Another great video story from Dan. Thank you.! I'm xt2 user myself. Bought it a year ago brand new. I shoot a lot of landscapes and sometimes family portraits. Coming from Canon and Panasonic I can tell the dynamic range of the XT2 is truly incredible especially at 200ISO . Personally I love the dials and buttons , turns the photography experience into sort of ritual ,a ceremony of artistic creation. On a weak side; grip a too small (without the additional grip) autofocus tend to hunt a lot and I wish weather sealed lenses weren't so sinfully expensive.)

Hey Robbie thanks for the comment once again. I never had issue with the X-T2 grip but I know that a lot of people coming from DSLR thought it was a little small. Cameron just seem to fit perfectly in my hands and if I needed a bigger grip to use with the longer lenses, I had the vertical battery grip. And yes the high-end weather sealed lenses are not cheap, but Fuji does make very good glass and quality has its price. Anyway thanks for watching and stay tuned for the next episode.

Thanks, Robby! I just packed up the bikes, so I'm looking forward to some warmer weather and drier roads next week!! 😀

My first Fuji camera was the XT2 after coming from an Olympus Em10. For some dumb reasons I was disappointed by the image quality at first and sold it and got a D810. After lugging around the D810 through Thailand, I realized of how incredibly dumb that decision was. I came home and immediately sold the Nikon and rebought the XT2 and never looked back. Next to the ergonomics and design, the Filmsimulations really make a difference. Whenever I’m bored I try a new setting, which gets me excited and take pictures again. I still shoot RAW but mostly use the JPGs, hack I shot my honeymoon all in JPG and never had more fun on a trip taking pictures. @Yuji One thing that I would love to do in camera, would be a way to control shadow and highlight colors ;)

Julius, thanks for your comment and feedback. The D810 is a great camera for sure, but the X-T2 definitely had better capabilities for shooting action and fast subject. And yes, the film simulations make such a huge difference! There are so many creative possibilities you can explore with those settings, and the incredible sense of liberation that trusting those colors and shooting JPEG is simply amazing. With regards to your feature request, can you clarify? Do you mean the ability to adjust special color brightness/darkness instead of an overall highlight/shadow control?

Oh, right. Yes, that setting is common to all of the X Series cameras. I've used it on occasion, but not very often. All of the images in this video was shot with the default setting. However, during the times when I have used it, it's been more for creative effects, rather than straight noise reduction, say to add some grit to a dramatic image, or to create a softer, smooth look to the photo.

Thanks for another intersting one! If I'm not mistaken, the X-T2 is the last one to be made in Japan, which I believe is also something that makes it one of Fuji's finest camera to this day. Interestingly, a lot of people also swear by its processor and color rendition, and claim that it's possibly the one that handles noise better than any of the other generations, so it's vastly used for astrophotography. I'd be interested to know, what are your thoughs and experience with this?

John, I think you're right about the X-T2/Japan. The X-T2 will always have a very special place in my heart. Many of my all time favorite photos were shot with that model. I don't know if I'd say it has better color rendition and noise control, but it certainly produces amazing colors and a wonderful look when you crank the ISO dial up. Each generation of sensor and processor improves with color accuracy and noise reduction, but as with film, and other types of art, perfection doesn't necessarily make for "better." Not to take anything away from this newest gen of X Series models, because I REALLY love the X-T5 and the images that come out of that camera, but that doesn't take anything away from the look and feel of images I shot with the X-T2, and any of the other X Series models of that matter. In my mind, ANY of the X Series models, even going back to those first gen models, are capable of producing amazing image with wonderful color and tones, but again, there was something really awesome about the X-T2. What kinds of subjects do you like to shoot?

John, the sensor thing is interesting, and I'm excited to do a side by side test with my XT1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, just to see how they compare when shooting the same scene. There is undoubtedly a difference between how each one records and transmits the light, because generation of sensor is unique with regard to the number of pixels, pixel size, architecture and electronics. A camera like the X-T2 has fewer, and thus larger pixels than any of the X Series models that came after it, which all have a higher pixel count. In theory, a larger pixel can gather more light, and so the processor doesn't have to amplify the signal, which is how the camera handles low light. It's the inherent heat and signal distortion that causes the noise, just like a tube amp distorts when you turn up the signal. However, each generation of processor is more powerful, and so new algorithms can help reduce this distortion and allow a camera like the X-T5, which has smaller pixels than the X-T2, to have excellent low light performance with decreased noise than would have previously been possible. It's never an exact comparison, because they are two very different systems. Again, in theory, the smaller pixels on the X-T2 would be able to record more light, which would minimize the need to signal amplification, but the X-T5 has a much more powerful processor, which does a better job minimizing noise. And, add into the equation the fact that whether it's the asymmetrical sound wave oscillation from a saxophone, synthesizer or electric guitar, the smudgy dots of paint on a Monet painting, or the faded retro look or film grain of an old photograph, our human eyes and ears actually find some level of distortion to be quite pleasing. Basically, every generation of X Series do a great job with color reduction and noise control, but they all have a slightly different look, the key word being different and not better, because it's a very subjective thing.

Fascinating account of your experiences. With the focus on the X-T2, the X-Pro 2 (my camera) got a little left behind, but I guess that what you said about the X-T2 applies equally to the X-Pro 2? I also use the X-A5 with a Samyang fish-eye, just for certain interior shots in churches and the like.

Hey Iain, thanks for comment, glad you’re enjoying these. Yes that’s the only thing that I don’t love about the X-T4. I find the screen a little frustrating when I’m shooting stills, but I’ll admit that I do use it for filming; in fact I’ve shot most of my KZread videos in the past year with the X-T4, using the flip screen. I used to use an external HDMI monitor, but the little flip screen is a lot easier, and it takes less time to set everything up. I do think that Fuji positioned both the X-T3 and X-T4 as the top level cameras: the XT three being the still camera and the four being the camera made for primarily video shooters. But obviously a lot of still shooters want the features and stabilization that the T4 has. It’ll be interesting to see what they come out with this summer, or whenever it is they introduce the fifth generation X series camera they’ve been talking about.
