People forget that it's like 1 stop and a bit better noise performance on full frame. Not a big deal. Just run it through an AI denoiser if you're worried.

​​@@bluecollar8525exactly, people act like full frame is a massive leap in quality, if they're that worried about noise, they should be shooting medium format. Also, there's something about x-trans noise that looks better and more natural than that from Bayer sensors, I never hesitate to push my Fuji's up to 6400, but my Ricoh GR at the same iso appears way noisier

Take the praise. Just a learner with the xt1 and hiring different lenses to see what I like to shoot and surprised at the different and often good results. Thanks for sharing.

Really stunning shots. It's not easy shooting outdoors during Canadian winters. I always lost motivation to shoot each winter because of that. But this inspires me to do better next winter!

Really nice shots. Many of them look like movie stills, and I love the vibe. My first Fujifilm camera was the XE1. I bought it used for, I believe, $185 (US). I just wanted to see what it could do, so I shot in jpg, and made several at ISO 12,800. They were noisy, and I would never do that for certain kinds of shoots, but I didn’t get a single comment from people about the noise- not even from the girl in the photos. If you need totally clean images, you can worry about noise, but for artistic shots and portraits that convey emotion, if people are only noticing things like noise, the other aspects of the photos are definitely lacking.

Truly inspiring shots!🤩 I really don't mind the noise, anything up to 6400 is workable, even more now with all these de-noise tools.

I turn off all noise reduction in all of my cameras. I find it hard to understand the criticisms of noise when people are pixel peeping. I intentionally add grain to my photos in post (good light or bad) as I find it gives texture to the final image. The latest apsc sensors are incredibly clean at low light. I find with the Fuji when noise does start to show it’s very fine and random in pattern. It prints really really well like a slower speed film asa 200 or 400. Your work is outstanding by the way. Thank you for all of your hard work and really putting yourself out there. It’s inspiring.

Portraits of models posing for you when you ask them how to pose and “Hold”, yes it is ok and I agree 100% with you. But for the some street shooters out there, they may find some difficult if they think they could go out in the dark shooting “street portraits” of “strangers” not really “posing” for them… just an advice… many ppl don’t realize how KZreadrs plan, buildup and prep the whole shooting experience for a educational video like this one. in a real life experience (specially for street shooter) this could bring a lot of others variables… great video, and fyi I LOVE MY XS10 as well!

Hey man, fresh new buyer of X-S10 here, which I bought also because of your feedback on this camera. Which white balance did you apply during this shooting? Since I am a newbie, I still don't know what WB to choose, I am trying to shoot on manual as much as possible, but WB is something I tend to leave on auto. Thanks in advance for your feedback, looking forward to your next videos and IG photos!

I suggest you watch video tutorials on how to give simple directions at first. Whenever I work with models, they have a good sense of what they’re doing, so it is much easier for me to get the shots I want. But for non modeling folks, take a look at creators who can help with that. Look for someone who shoots weddings and couples. It’ll help.
