I have moved to the XT-5 from an XT-3. I am now 79 and I can assure you that every gram weight counts! I have never had any issue with weatherproofing but then I am a mere amateur. I have developed a slight shake so I reluctantly decided it was time to go to a camera with IBIS. If you have the money, buy an XT THEY ARE ALL GREAT CAMERAS! The lenses are the finest you will find. As one of the gurus said a few years ago, 'the best camera you have is the one in your hand'.

Love my XT3. Incredible camera and very affordable!

@@sn4rl277 I also just picked up an X-T3 and a TTArtisans 35mm 1.8. I'm excited to start my photography with Fuji, I was having some regrets of a now 6 year old camera, but everything has been amazing so far

I want to share my little experience: after almost 2 years of X-t4 (coming from canon m50, I'm still a beginner amateur) I downgraded to X-S10, my main goal was achieving more compactness without losing IBIS and flip-out screen. I was scared of losing dials and extra buttons, reality is I'm actually faster with the endless dials and not missing those extras. Looking backwards the "analog" dials were an intriguing selling point, linked with the nice film simulation, but as time went by and I went deeper in Lightroom, post production and most of all composition, I never looked back for simulation and now when I use my camera I honestly don't care if I don't have dials with shutter or iso written on them, but I'm very focused on the photography I have in mind and the camera must only be fast enough and reliable (and the fact the processor and sensor is the same of the X-t4 is the most important thing). This is just my experience and everyone has its needs, what I really want to say to anyone being fascinated by new gear is to take a piece of paper, a pen and write down what photography you desire to do and a list of features a camera need to make that photography. In my case, after 2 years of trying a lot of lenses (16-55, 23-35-50 f2, 23 1.4 lm wr, 16-80 f4, sigma 16...) I ended up with X-S10, the old mighty 35 1.4 and the new sigma 18-50 2.8. Of course it took me almost 2 years of trial and error, as photography was (and still is) something new to me, but It's funny how now that I am more (at least a bit) aware of what I want to achieve I moved to a cheaper body, an old prime and a small zoom, when Fuji just released three amazing cameras as X-H2, H2S and X-T5. I also add that now that I feel comfortable with the X-S10 layout, the X-H2 is probably the most appealing new camera to me, for an eventual future upgrade, while when I still had the X-t4 I thought that X-H2 with its more classic DSLR approach was just a bad idea from fuji. Focus on your style guys and buy the tool that enhances it. And thank you Roman, your videos are valuable 'cos you ACTUALLY use the gear you talk about, you have your style, you make photos and have followed your channel in the last two years has helped my path for sure. Have a nice 2023 everyone.

I'm wanting to get the Sigma 18-50mm 2.8 soon too and I'll be done most likely. I shoot street mostly with aperture priority using Auto ISO so I really don't need dials much.

I have the XH2s and XH2 for the ergonomics and, of course, the features and new sensors. I’m seriously thinking about the XT5 as well due to the size just for street photos. The XT4 was a great street camera but I needed more for my work. Great video!

I changed from the XT4 to the XT5 because it went back to the flip up screen that I missed sooooo much from the XT3. I just couldn't get used to the flip out screen and it just took away from the enjoyment of using that camera. But that's just me, everyone's mileage will differ. The XT5 is just the perfect package for me - much improved autofocus, flip up screen, slightly smaller.

Nice to see the X-T2 getting lots of love in the comment section. It's been a hell of a workhorse for me, I've taken as many as 3,000 shots in a day with it and it's never locked up, over heated or given me any problems. It has better low light performance than any of the later generations, and I don't really understand the gripes about AF when it comes to stills. Granted that everyone has different needs and I'm sure the newer cameras are wonderful also

Excellent overview, definitely must see video for anyone considering a Fujifilm in today's market. I have been shooting an XH1 for several years and plan to move up to either an XH2 or XH2s, mainly for better battery life and improved autofocus. Thanks for all the keen insights.

Finally someone said something about articulating or flip out screen. You're absolutely correct

You're absolutely right on the used XT4 being a killer deal at the moment. A couple of weeks ago I scored a 5 month old XT4 body with two incredible prime lenses for a couple hundred less than the price of an XT5 body. Coming from the XT1, I couldn't be happier!

I had the XT4 and thought it was terrible.. The screen is stupid and the quality is so poor - it's why they are so cheap. I went back to Nikon. Got a load of Fuji lenses for sale! The XT3 is better.

The bottom line with Roman's videos is that noone feels bad or excluded from the topic, whatever camera one's using. That's what I always appreciate about his work, he has his simple, clear and human way to explain and give his advices, but always without imposing any viewpoint🙏💙. I understand the main differences between the latest models and for instance the XT3 or XT4 which I own. When upgrading one really needs also to question oneself if one can manage the higher resolutions, the pixels, the new features that come with the territory. I feel like it's "easy" to buy always the latest gear, like for instance people do with their iphones, but how many do really use or need the newest features? I am not a fan of bandwagon trends, and hope brands like Fuji don't start using features on their new models as "baits" in order to keep customers buying. One example? When the XT4 came out it was largely explained that the IBIS+larger battery made it unavoidable to have a bigger camera than the XT3. Now with the XT5 they've proven elsewise😕...

Thanks for your videos, Roman! They always help to make complicated things much clearer for me 😄🤩

I like the way you explain in details from photographer perspective.

i never gonna get tired of seeing and listening to Roman fox talking about anything! Great work man! Keep it up! I would love to see you saying a few words about camera slings ;)

This video was great! I am a photographer, but I shoot with Canon. I was looking for my first Fujifilm to start dabbling with, but I wasn’t sure which one to pick! Thank you so much for your content!

As someone who shoots more photos and sells prints for living, I should be going for X-T3. But that extra battery life on X-T4 and 5 is very tempting. I don't do much video as of now but still might go towards X-T4 to get the IBIS and bigger battery. Used X-T4 is selling for under £1K so can use the extra cash to get a good lens to pair with it. Thanks again for awesome video and have a great time in Dubai. Happy new year

Yep, moved from the XT3 to the XT5, hated the flippy screen on the XT4 + it was bigger. Reason for XT5, Ibis, faster AF, longer battery life, and as you said the 40mp helps if you want to crop in. Very happy with indeed. Oh and I don't do videos.

This is a really useful review. I'm upgrading my old PEntax K20d and am swithering between XT5 and the sony A7c. The flip out screen on the XT5 is definitely really important. Coming from an 11 years old camera to either is going to be such a leap for me.

I spent the money I saved for an XT-5 to travel to Japan, and it was the best decision ever!

Just found your channel and really dig your content, super helpful. I have the xs-10, which has been awesome if you don't need manual dials for everything. I like the PSAM style setup and often keep it in Aperture priority. It's small and has the same sensor as the XT4.

For any beginners, I'd recommend an X-T2 or X-H1. No huge difference in IQ, not too expensive if you find out if it's not for you, and easy enough to resell if you find yourself outgrowing it

I’ve just sold my X-T4 and bought a second X-T2 instead. I simply don’t need the extra bells and whistles and the high ISO performance of the X-T2 has slightly less noise at say 6400, which I can often be shooting at in a dimly lit church for a wedding, as I prefer not to use flash during unless absolutely necessary. I found that when shooting people, IBIS is a waste of time as it simply lets you shoot at low shutter speeds and you just get blurry shots of people. Also very annoying that the metering selection dial has been removed and changed to a stills/video switch. I rarely shoot video, but often change metering type during the day, depending on the shot and background, etc. Normally I am using spot metering for close ups, metering on faces, but more likely to use full frame metering for groups.

Replaced XT2 with an XS20. Happy given the limitations

Thank for the most useful and helpful comparison video yet!

I personally think the X-T4 hits that sweet spot. Not to small and not to big. XH features I.e. flip out screen and battery grip in an XT body. I think the flip out screen is some what a little more useful and versatile.

I went from X-T3 to X-T4 to X-H2S and I think the X-T3 is a great video option if you rig up the camera in a cage and especially if you use manual focus lenses. The screen doesn’t get in the way of the cables. You can power with USB-C PD. It has a headphone jack unlike the X-T4 and X-T5. The port door is completely removable. The sensor has less rolling shutter than the X-T5 and X-H2. It’s significantly less likely to overheat when shooting 4K 60 than the X-T4 and it recovers more quickly (from my experience filming weddings in the southern USA with both). Also there’s a smaller crop on 4K 60 than the X-T5 or X-H2. For certain video shooters the X-T3 is probably the best if they don’t want to go X-H2S for the advantages you outlined.

Thanks for another "no icing on the cake " video as I like to call them.No bs, just the way it is. I just moved up from my trusty X-T3 to a good deal on a demo/"open box" X-T4. Reason for the move , just because. As a retired senior as I've mentioned before, " because" is my go to excuse these days. As an aside, I found while enabling the various settings on my X-T4 it seems to have a sensitive "hair trigger" shutter button compared to my X-T3. Keep the videos coming, Roman.

Great video. Extremely practical and helpful.

Thanks for another great video Rome, Just bought the xh2s for wildlife to complement my xt3 for street .

Superb review cleared so many doubts. Thanks man 👍

Hi Roman, I used to be a die-hard-fan of the Fujifilm system, starting with the X-T1, then X-T2. At that time I was mainly doing weddings and people photography. I was okay with the AF until I met the Sony 6400 and it's superior AF-tracking/face detection, which made me switch to Sony overall. But now, my requirements have changed, I do more travel and leisure, only a few jobs per year. With Fuji picking up on the AF-system, I'm right now returning back to Fuji and as I'm still torn between the X-T5 and the X-H2 I came across your channel. Having said all this in length, I'd like to thank you for this very comprehensive comparison. I now finally made my mind and will go with the X-T5 and will later add a X-S20 (the baby H-S2) for my video work for my KZread channel. Have you had a chance to test the X-S20?

Thank you Roman for a very useful and insightful video! Agree with you on all points. I owned the XT1, XT2, XH1 and currently the XT5, and after a thorough and extensive use of all cameras,l have to say that in terms of absolute photo quality, the XT5 wins hands down, with clean noise free images in basic ISO, best Dynamic Range by miles, and a great color rendition that would resemble the XT1 organic feel. I would put XT2 no.2 followed by XT1/XH2. XT5 is indeed a photo first form and function and is a home run for Fujifilm!

Thanks for confirming my XT-5 purchase, as someone who shoots exclusively stills with some sports

Don’t forget the combo of X T30 II with pancake 27mm which is a marvel for street photography. For me it’s the best combo. Same image quality of the X T4 with a very small volume in your bag

Excellent video ! Very helpful thank you so much !

XT5 & manual Voigtländer Norton 23mm (35eq) f1.2 for street… & 150-600mm (229-914eq) for birds and amazing landscape photography. So versatile & future proof for a pur photographer.

I'm happy with my X-T30 ii which I just got and was at the top end of my limited budget, but I'm always happy with the image quality on fuji cameras once I've gotten to grips with the controls. I started off with Fuji cameras nearly 20 years ago, moved on to Pentax (a big no no), then Nikon (good), but I'm happiest back with Fuji.

I have a X-H2S as my main camera for photo&video. When i go outside i more often use my X100V. It doesn't look so "Professional". Nevertheless the x-h2s is a great camera and i really love it. Went from Sony to Fuji and with the capabilities of thr x-h2s i am totally happy. What i would like as a firmware update would be that the custom modes names would displayed for just a second when you switch between C1-C7. That would be great. Hopefully fuji is adding this feature in future firmware-updates.

I took your advice and kept my X-T3 and added an X-T4 and its a great setup...

I really didn't need many features as it would only become my every day carry instead of my main camera for planned shoots so I just got an xt30 II and am very happy with it.

Thank you so much for having this video! Saves a ton of time for most of us that is shopping around for what’s best. I’m currently contemplating between the X-T30II and the X-T3. May I know which do you suggest getting for a beginner hybrid shooter? Given that the prices are similar to one another. Many thanks in advance for answering this question! ❤

Looking forward to your H2 guide🎉

This is just what i was looking for. Cheers

That was the best ‘which camera to buy’ video I’ve watched. I’m looking to buy a second Fujifilm camera for wildlife. This made my decision much easier. XT5 or XH2 it is 👍

Well thought out recommendations... I initially planned to go for the X-T5 and X-H2s for my 2-camera body workflow, but after using the X-H2s for several weeks it made more sense for me to go with the ergonomically identical X-H2.

I have the xs20 and for me it is the perfect camera. Take great pictures and video

I recently added the X-H2s to my Fujifilm ecosystem. Not interested in 40 MP because I like using the older lenses like the 18 f2 and 60 macro and have a lot of MF lenses that are much easier for my eye to focus with on the 5.76 million dots EVF. Plus, I like not needing to add a grip to the camera. 🙂

I'm keeping my XT4 love the flip out screen for video and turn it backwards for photography using the EVF, also like the bigger battery and switch from video to photo, it is exactly what it was designed to be, a hybrid do it all camera. Nice video, no interest in changing at the moment

Same here. I upgraded from my XT3 to the XT4 exactly because of the IBIS, the larger battery, the easy video/picture switch, the flip out screen was not the deal breaker. I wont start buying new cameras every 1-2 years like people do with iphones😎

My take: the most important points between bodies (in order): - Autofocus - XH if you are hybrid (setting all the video settings every time you switch is dawnting, few custom profiles for video and stills are much much more useful) - IBIS (there is never enough light) But I have an XT3 and I am waiting for even more autofocus improvment. The XS20 is very tempting for my use case (non pro, still but would like to dive into hybrid).

Got the XT5 and love it so much! :D

Thumbs up , I have small size7 woman hands!!!! :) I had added a rubberized cover to my xt4, never had troubles, and went with it every where, I can't get used again to the PSAM dial !

I jumped from an X-T3 to an X-T5 when it was released, after using and loving the older camera for four years. I was interested in the IBIS, better auto focus, and bigger battery, and wanted to keep the articulating screen. So far, the low light capability is noticeably better. Haven’t decided on whether 40mp is an advantage or makes enough difference in image quality for my primary uses, street and travel. I am not a professional, can only afford one camera at a time, and would never want inflict my face and voice on the web so no video. I also appreciate the dial controls on the XT cameras and the relatively small size so I never considered the XH line.

I have to say, I just bought the X-T5 and I still love the X-T2 just as much. It has a quality to the images that you just don't get on the X-T3 onward.

Do they not have the same character as XT2. If so, then I don't think moving to XH2s will be of benefit. Thanks.

I just got an XH2 and I really can’t believe I have such a wonderful camera

I bought the X-T5. I'm primarily a stills photographer. I think the X-H2(s) cameras are great cameras, but I don't need or want the extra video features. Plus, the X-H2(s) camera is just too big and heavy as an all day travel camera (along with my lenses). I do notice the difference in size and weight of the X-T5 over my previous X-T30, but I can deal with that given the X-T5 is so much an upgrade, IMO, especially having IBIS. I also seem to get more jpgs and even raw photos looking very good straight out of the camera (with only tweaks to my taste) than from my X-T30, which says something about the new sensor. I also prefer the look and use of the retro dial approach over PSAM. Very happy with my decision. Thanks for the video...well thought out.

Hey Roman, I totally think this analysis was spot on. In fact, as an XT-3 owner who has been inching toward trying out video, I think the XT-4 right now is a fantastic buy. There are so many on the used market from people stepping up the the XH cameras. I still love the IQ for photography that I get from my XT-3. It's a beast of a camera. Since I have the 18-55 I think I will experiment with video on the XT-3 first using that lens before spending more on a camera. Especially since I spent some money recently on lenses. Great deals for them, but still money spent!! LOL! Have a great weekend!

Keep your xt3 and get ninja V. Unless you vlog. Coming from a xt3, xt4, xh2s, the best Fujifilm camera is the one you holding on right now.

I got the X H2s for best af and best video features. The af is awesome and close to that of Sony and Canon.

Have the X-H1 with battery grip & the lovely X-T30. Bothe fine for me at the moment 🙂

For me with Fujitsu it is the dials and recipes first. Now in addition it is IBIS. Finally it is improved AF. I’m still undecided if the new higher res sensor is worth it. 24-26mpx is a bit of a sweet spot for me. I am tempted by the XT5, but no rush. ….the wildcard, the XPro4 😊

Great vid Roman! Personally, I like the colors of Fuji better than some of the other brands. I'm considering Fuji for beginner wedding photography. Thanks to this, I'm realizing that I should probably be looking at the XH2S. Any idea for the best lenses for wedding specifically? Thanks

quick and nice guide!

I am still using X-T3 and I believe it's 4-year old. That's because I bought my X-T3 right after its release and sold my X-T1. I mainly shoot with XF 56/1.2 so I don’t need built-in stabilizer from either X-T4 or X-T5. Therefore I have no intention to replace it with later models till now. As to video performance, 4K/60fps from X-T3 is still decent. If I want to upgrade my X-T3 I would like to have 4k/120fps rather than higher resolution like 40m pixels.

thanks for the effort and sharing. i am an appreciative subscriber. thumbs up.

But not the Bojo he is well, no problem, he is happy with it. Believe me, fools of this level there we have also many at us unfortunately.

My biggest fear initially with the X-H2 was that sterile feel you get from a Sony A7 III as the bodies appear pretty similar (partially why I left Sony in the first place). Initially, I DID get that feeling and stowed it away for about a month because of it, but as time progressed, I forced myself to use it a bit more because I couldn't justify a $2,200 paperweight. So after giving it a second chance I actually fell in love with it and am very happy with my purchase. The IBIS for photography is absolutely unmatched IMO. As soon as you half press the shutter (even if shaking cold) you can still hand hold insanely tac sharp images at low SS. It's something I can't explain and you'd truly have to experience to understand. I normally prefer the ergonomics of the T-Series with a L-bracket grip and was actually looking to downgrade my system because of the feelings it evoked when shooting on both systems. My middle of the road compromise wound up being: X-H2 for professional paid work that's serious and requires the best, and an X-E4 for personal work and travel. I find this combo works way better for me than combining both needs and wants into one body. I find myself babying my X-E4 a lot less than I would the T5/H2. It allows me to put myself into "less safe" situations and go for the shot, rather than playing it safe and missing the opportunity. Could even recommend an X-T3 for the same kind of setup, but just prefer the discretness, simplicity, and whimsical feel the X-E4 brings. Hope this helps!

I used to shoot Canon high end DSLR’s and came across to Fuji about 4 or 5 years ago now. Never once regretted it.

Thank you, very useful.

Roman, I have an XT3 and I was wondering if you can point me in the right direction. If I choose a metering mode on the dial, do I need to go into the camera and choose the same metering mode to match or does one override the other? Thanks in advance and continue the great work with the videos.

The X-H2S is a real standout camera for Fujifilm. Clearly ahead of the rest of the range.

Amazing camera that unfortunately has been torpedoed by the "fuji little dials brigade". From the moment it was launched, existing Fuji users were up in arms. What they failk to understand is that the new CEO was brought in to save Fuji. Fuji was hemoraging money because it's customer base was dying, literally. They needed to bring new customers in and offering a camera that looked like my great uncle's manual Zenit was never going to do that. And so the X-H libe was born. A modern camera for a modern age. Whether the damage caused by the Fuji diehards will be terminal we will wait and see, hopefully not. This camera is actually a direct replacement for Canon's much revered 7D Mk2 and is light years ahead of the R7 in every respect. Certainly the best wildlife camera for the money. The stacked sesnor is just the cherry on the top!

Just curious because I am new to your channel if you'd be interested or if you have already made a camera guide for the X-S10? Great videos by the way, your channel and a couple others helped to educate me on my recent acquisition of the fuji 33mm f1.4 which I absolutely love... Cheers.

X-h2 great top Mirrorless… good work Fujifilm!

XH1 ;-) Not just to advocate for the camera I have, but it is pretty good and it is the cheapest Fujifilm (used) with IBIS. It is a bit bigger (like the H2). Basically an X-T2 with IBIS.

I love this camera because ws very accessible😊

Trying to switch over from Sony R10x IV and RX100 VII into APS-C camera. Sitting on the fence between Sony and Fujifilm. Roman's videos are MUCH better than some of the "hype-style" showman videos. Thank you for staying with facts and your personal experience. I learned a lot and am getting more and more interested in Fujifilm, especially the X-S20. I am doing general nature photography and some wildlife images, hence the 600 mm RX10. But I am not a spring chicken anymore, and weight [of the camera and lens combo] is a major issue for my choice. Thank you, Roman.

Sir I am a physician, interested in photography not interested in switching lenses hence planning to get sony rx 10 mark 4, is that a good idea.

The XT30 II might be the best value. You can get it new with a lens around the same price or lower than a used XT4 Body in EU.

Dope!!! Thaaaank youuu!!!! For real!

Thanks Roman! I guess I'm the hybrid shooter that should look at the X-H2, but I really worry about bad rolling shutter wobbles in video. Any experience with that?

great video and advice 🙂 I've had all the X-T cameras except the 1, and still shoot with a 2, 4 and 5. I have to say that from a pure bang for buck the 2 is still incredibly hard to beat. its build and image quality are top notch. ok it may not be the fastest to focus but that's not important to many. for the £££ i think they're unbeatable. and the X-T20 should be a consideration also.

The X-T1 is a classic…I love it, especially matched with the 35mm 1.4…go on complete your collection! 😁

@@julianhignell8452 ha ha Julian - I don't need much in the way of temptation!! I've been waiting for the right one (or an X-T10) to come along. As soon as one does then I'll buy it. I've got an X-E1 with the X-Trans 1 sensor, so a T1 or T10 with the X-Trans 2 is definitely coming this year!! I'll then have all the X-Trans sensors. I have a problem - obviously!!

hello Roman, Between the XT-3 and XT-30 II which one should I choose? I'll be doing environmental portraits, general portraits majorly. Was thinking if I go with the XT-30 II, I can save some money and utilize it on getting a battery grip. The XT-3 looks more professional though. Will a be losing out on something major if I go with the XT-30 II ?

I had a dead dial on my xh2 so I returned it, I think I'll get another one, but I might go with the h2s

Coming from the Xt4 the XH2S have improve my video work quality which had a huge positive impact on my business.The XT4 was very good for photography only when it comes to video the AF was not reliable at all, The XH2S is huge jump in AF and I’m so happy i invest in this camera.

H2 of course

X-S10! The same sensor like X-T4, smaller size, IBIS... It's small and you can take it everywhere. If you can live with the small battery and PASM dial.

I appreciate your vids. I've been on a xt200 for the last year and am definitely ready to upgrade. I've been really struggling between the xt4 and xt5. Here in Canada it's a 200-300 difference and seems like the 5 is something that's only going to keep getting better as more firmware updates and lenses become available. Question though - I've been on an older mac pro and a new Samsung galaxy 8+ (which im selling) and have been also struggling between a new iPad m2 pro or the new 16" Mac pro. Do you think the M2 iPad would be able to handle the files of the xt5? I've been really enjoying the experience of editing on the galaxy 8+( just the programming in lightroom and other programs aren't either available or as good as Apple) but am worried about over loading the iPad if I go that route.

If you want to use Adobe's cloud service to store all your photos use lightroom on your ipad only because you cannot store everything in your ipad especially if you shoot raw. In a macbook you have the option to use lightroom classic and can store your photos locally withoud paying a higher price to adobe for cloud space. To me thats the only significant difference, other than that any latest ipad or mac can handle lightroom workflow efficiently.

I got an X-T2. got some fuji lenses. my fav is the 35mm f1.4 I want to go into really cinematic video shoots, like PROPER cinematic vibes - I'm even considering a black magic design camera simply because the colors and gradation are so sexy: I prefer higher dynamic range and higher bit files over sharpness. Sharpness is overrated. So that would be an XH2S... after some saving up... or perhaps changing over to black magic design after all and just change over to another ecosystem...

X-Pro4 and the X70 successor ;)
