Why did you use no picture profile for the sony? you should have used PP1 which is the default video profile (movie) to match the standard profile on the Fuji. Also in shot 4 (2:10) which one is closer to the actual color of the jacket? there is a huge difference.

For this to be a proper color science test both cams should be at AUTO WHITE BALANCE and DEFAULT color profiles. Not to mention Fuji has been known to work best with AWB and adjusting Sony’s color profile makes it automatically invalidated. Choosing a film simulation known to have flat colors and commenting that it has NO pop on the color is ridiculous. AWB + Default colors with no tweaks whatsoever is the proper test for colors.

*paused to comment* 6 for A, 4 for B. I knew which were which anyway as it's easy to tell Sony colour from Fuji, but I think the biggest factor in me 'liking' one from the other is simply the white balance. Most of the shots the Sony seemed to have a warmer white balance with an almost red cast, which works well for skin tones but not for scenery. I do wonder how they would perform if they were set to a custom white point that matched. The Sony's blues seem to have a slight shift toward purple, so for the shot with the water and the blue jacket was somewhat off imo. Maybe something to do with the white balance. Just my thoughts :)

Fuji colors look very similar to Panasonic colors to me with which I have more experience. Panasonic also emphasizes the greens too much when using a pre-set white balance, but shows mostly good colors after having done a manual white balance. Also, the standard profile often gives a brand-specific, avarage consumer pleasing look which isn't necessarily the most accurate one. One must often choose another profile (neutral, natural or whatever it is called) to get accurate colors.

White balance was not properly configured in any of the camera. Many Pro photographers have been commented that to use Fuji cameras, you need to have some knowledge. But in Sony, you need nothing, just aim and shoot which imho, does not work great in some situations. If the camera does everything, then what would I do, just sitting idle and chewing grass?!

I'll try and give a different perspective on the matter. What I noticed using Sony cameras and in this test, there is always some yellow and magenta cast in the image. This can be at times really hard to fix in post, especially with the 100Mbps 8bit 4:2:0 codec. If you look at the first shot of the girl with the flowers the skin and hair get that yellowish tone that is not present on Fuji. The green of the foliage always looks more vibrant and neon on Sony (I guess because of the yellow in the green channel) than it is in real life. Also if you look at her bow the red is more orange then on Fuji. You can also see this red shift in the shot were the girl stands on the parking lot so you can compare her bow with the car light behind. In the same frame you can see that green-yellow blotch under her chin. In the nature shot with the river in front you can see how the sky and water is more magenta on the Sony than Fuji, the darkest part of the water is almost purple (you can take a screenshot and use a qualifier to pick individual colors apart). Now, Fuji does loose some detail with overexposure, I don't know if it's because of the knee or something else, but almost all of the shots that were slightly underexposed had more detail and color in the shadows on Fuji. I also don't know if Max used h265 10 bit on Fuji, or just a regular 8bit h264, because there is a noticeable color difference between the two. There is also different DR options on Fuji (DR100, DR200, DR400) which extend the range of highlight clipping. Also omitted from this test is the mixed light situation. Sony is clipping the blue channel in the highlights, and when you for example film an event at the club with different temperature lights it can create banding and color cast. I have owned many Sony cameras EX1, a6300, a6500, a7III and now I have X-T3 to compare. I'm not bashing Sony, they made great improvements to their line of products and their color science, just pointing out the things I experienced when grading material.

wow I literally googled this question today. What are the chances? :O

I went all A. Before I see the reveal, I know A was probably oversaturated a little, but B looked like it almost had a green hue. The differences are tiny either way though

Great video! Please do a Canon vs Sony one, I would really like that!

Nearly all A, and i have to say, i was very surprised. Those B shots don't look at all like white i know from my Fuji cameras, but then again i typically use auto white balance nearly all the time, not sunny/shade. And i'm a stills shooter, not a video guy. I can only guess, that in a direct comparison we typically prefer the warmer picture (especially on portraits). Also it can make the decision harder if you have not seen the original scene.

I definitely liked the highlights better on camera A.

For 1080 video recording, which is better? Sony a6000 , canon m50/200d, or Fujifilm xt200? I want to record art videos, make review videos and interviews. For me, colour accuracy in video mode is most important. Also a good battery life and continuous recording is my priority

7A and 3B... for the skin colors it was the same reasoning here. I thought the more pale/greenish one would be the Sony... but it turns out to be the Fuji... Also I just watched a photo comparisson Canon R5, Fujifilm GFX100S, Sony A7RIV and Sony A1(same for A9II and A7SIII) --> Canon has those warmer more "redish" color profiles that seem to appear more pleasing especially for skin color. The Sony A7RIV shared the same more pale/greenish look with the Fujifilm GFX100S (I was negatively supprised by that) while the newer Sony sensors such as A1 (but also A9II and A7SIII) looked much more similar to the Canon R5. Sometimes too redish, sometimes the Canon R5 seemed "greenish" now haha. So I guess there is a lot happening color wise at Sony. Since Canon and Fujifilm colors are always so beloved by many people I was really suprised here how different the Fujifilm GFX100S looked. Maybe the other Fuji Cameras look different. (I'm not sure, but I think I remember Sony provides Fujifilm with the sensors? or is it just for the medium format which would explain the GFX100S look).

Which of these has a better battery life? Is compressed raw image format in a6400 that bad?

A6, and B4. I liked the vibrancy of the colors (especially greens) on A, but prefered and really liked the skin tones on B (I loved how soft and subtle they were).

I recently saw a short interview of a man at Fuji in Japan who apparently developed Velvia colours long ago in their slide film and then their transition to digital. He said that they didn't try to duplicate real life colours in Velvia, but rather aimed for what the mind recalled after with an emotional element to it. This likely explains why colours are not always intended to match true life in some (but not all) profiles. I suspect it applies to most camera brands.

A=9 B=1 (I liked the denim jacket better on the fuji) I am very surprised!

Do you think the a6500 Color is the same as the a6400?

A6000 , ax7 m200 Which one i should buy for videos Your reply will be really helpful.

What an interesting test; thanks for doing this! My choices were kind of all over the place. On some of the skin ones, the Fuji looked pasty white to me (like sickly) - specifically on 7, 9, and 10. However, the Fuji colors looked better to me on some of the colors of other objects in the scene (i.e. the water in 2, the lady's blue jean jacket in 4 and the boy's blue clothes in 10 looked purplish on Sony and aa better blue on the Fuji). In real world use, I'm just as happy with colors on my Sony a6400 as I was with the Fuji X-T30; and for me, the AF is world's better on the a6400.

I've been a Sony user for a while so I'm starting to recognise they way the colours look. I switched to GH5 for video recently (Sony for photos still) and I prefer the colours from the GH5. In this test I spotted the Sony right away but in most cases I preferred the colours of the Fuji but the image (so exposure, highlights and detail) from the Sony. If you could merge those two, you'd have beautiful footage right out of camera!

That being the case, I didn't agree with the opininon on the faces on a couple of the pictures where Max thought Fuji won because, not only does Fuji's image look 'flatter', but the skin tone looks the slightest bit of 'greenish' to me... either way this test and Northrup's have been quite interesting, and I can't wait to see these companies continue tweaking their colors as their next generation of cameras come out...

So in the skintones, there's more detail in the Sony. Like with the little girl below her neck, the veins are a bit more visible. Or with the boy on his face. Does that mean those details are lost in the Fujifilm, or can they be restored when color correcting and grading the material? I know it's an old video, but i can't find that explanation anywhere. Thank you in advance.

A for 6-8, B for everything else.

Look at the jacket at 2:08 One, or both, got the color wrong. The boy in the swing also seem to have different colors on his clothes in each clip. Does it matter what I like if the colors are incorrect? At least straight out of camera, the colors should be as correct as possible.

'A' for all but in all honesty you're comparing apples with oranges. Why not compare images that you've used a grey card with so you are at the same starting point?

Exactly. He's comparing white balances, not colour science.

First, thanks for the profile setting, I will try those on my a6400+18-135mm, exactly what you used here. Your family looks beautiful in these footages, and the color, detail, and dynamic range is fantastic. Second, so this is the video that debunks the “Fuji color science” myth. It got destroyed on color. And obviously it was much flatter with much worse dynamic range. I chose A as Fuji because of all the talk about “Fuji color science”, and boy, I was shocked. Glad I did not buy that XT-3 now.

You are assuming that the comparison is apples to apples here. I suggest it isn’t and that the Fuji simulation used was not the correct choice , especially considering that the tester likes more saturated colors. Eterna is one of the flattest and desaturated simulations Fuji has.

For this to be a proper color science test both cams should be at AUTO WHITE BALANCE and DEFAULT color profiles. Not to mention Fuji has been known to work best with AWB and adjusting Sony’s color profile makes it automatically invalidated. Choosing a film simulation known to have flat colors and commenting that it has NO pop on the color is ridiculous. AWB + Default colors with no tweaks whatsoever is the proper test for colors.

C O nope, won’t do it. And not doing it means I have no right to comment what settings should be done. And doing 10 tests total does not conclude any test really. Photography or not, 10 tests doesn’t mean anything.

Nice video I really like , good job

I mostly use pro neg high or Astia as Provia is very "flat". And Fuji highlights need to be tamed, I always have them on -2 but keep the shadows as is. I use an XT2 which to me has better colors than the new sensor, I've seen that in a lot of comparisons. Hope it helps.

I'd prefer their Log-profiles comparison.

9 votes for A camera, 2 votes for B

5:48 are the white balance equal? lol. I own a fuji and its true that they turn the highlight to white/neutral, not respecting the ambient light.

nice video bro. i can tell which one is Eterna bc i know Sonys look like the back of my hand and i gotta say that Eterna is really nice. very flattering on the skin

I prefer the Fuji. Fuji looks more romantic, but Sony definitely has that impact and pop. The Sony also looks more realistic on several images, which may be the intention at times.

me: first serie all b seconde serie all a not only color: moire, sharpness and all

Why do the skin tones on Fuji look greenish?

I had 7 a and 3 b, I think the Sony handled the skin tones and highlights a lot better but the detail was quite harsh in some shots. The Fuji has a heavy cyan to it which you have a tendency to get from some film stocks but I think it affects the skin tones a bit too much. I suspected that A was the Sony camera but I think it's because I've owned a Sony camera and I have a feel for the sort of colors you would expect from them.

8 for A, 2 for B. Preferred Fuji skin tones in the first test, but Sony won every comparison after you enabled camera profiles.

I agree. He even tweaked Sony’s color profile!

I chose A on almost every shot the folliage shot was like meh... whatever i like both

A wins almost every one for me. I liked B on #2, #4, and how it handled the shadows in #8

nice to see you back in the photography chanel 3 times A 7 times B

B IS MY OPTION FOR BEST PUCTURE

A: 7 B: 2 (too yellowish/greenish and flat) Clip #3: it's a tie.

Sony：Blue= purple

First set I was preferring the right side 90% of the time. On the second set, the left side I liked the skin tones and the yellow slide was more vibrant. Left side majority of the time.

I would like to see that test with custom White Balance and hlg3 or log but thanks it was interesting :)

Now I understand why Christopher Frost Photography the best lens reviewer (imho), has left Fuji for Sony colors.

9 times camera A, albeit with a lot of them having question marks beside them. To me there were many times where both images were totally workable.

I watched this on my PS4 with a 50 inch tv and could tell which one was the fuji due to the subtle pulsing of the background. I suppose the focal length and background will determine how noticeable this is. I prefer the color results and focus of the sony. I know when it comes to stills, the XT3 will have cleaner low light images than the A7iii. But i find it easier to shoot in a really dark environment or bright afternoon with the A7iii. I usually reduce contrast and slightly reduce the saturation then make the adjustments in post(for stills).

"I know when it comes to stills, the XT3 will have cleaner low light images than the A7iii." Are you kidding?

Lol ... yeah i was surprised, always selected A and was afraid it would be the Fuji. Jeez Fuji colors are crap. Shocking to me considering everyone is hyping Fuji.

A, A, A, B, A, A, A, A, A, A, were my choices. Although I find this test pointless. First of all - most people will grade their footage anyway (those who don't probably don't care about it anyway). Then you moved to the profiles. Not only did you tweak Sony's settings, which makes the test irrelevant then as it's not Sony colour science anymore, it's yours (especially as you tweaked saturation, which in most consumer cameras affects reds then greens the most). You also used Fuji's Eterna filmstock simulation, which IMO is not suitable for the conditions you tested at. It's best at artificial lighting, city scenes with loads of reflections and contrast. Definitely not good for skin tones as it adds that green cast. Also it clipped highlights (especially visible in the slide shot). I enjoyed watching the video anyway :)

I chose like you do, Max. Except that for 6-10 I'd choose to go with A if I had to use the footage without touching it further, but I do think B looked more "correct" with it's better color separation. The color cast from the surroundings (including the blueish grey from the sky) does give an unappealing tone to it (for me), and that's why I'd go with A straight out of the camera.

7 A 2 B 1 even But there are differences in RAW . Can you test that?
