    You really don't plan things well huh? Be it lenses or light in the day! I have 9 Fuji lenses and the 56mm f1.2 is the most frequently used :)

    You should consider the Viltrox 56mm F1.7. That lens is sharp corner to corner and it's only 140 U$. Like you, I don't use that focal length much, so I grabed one since it's so cheap.

    MY MAN!!!! Love seeing you here again. I sold my f/1.2 WR even though it's one of the best lenses I've ever used. Wildly sharp. Incredible contrast and rich colors even at f/1.2. BUT - it's slow to focus. SO SO SO slow! That's why I sold it and don't regret it. I get it man. I want the 135mm plena for Nikon. I know I'd get some use out of it, but I don't NEED it. Crap! I've been holding off for months! Good video man - love the "learn by doing." I think you stopped me from getting the Plena for at least a few more weeks.

    Hey Jerred! Thanks for stopping by. It’s been annoyingly slow in the past but I’m wondering if part of that was the AF issues with the X-H2 at the time!

    $1000 for crop sensor lens? Why wouldn't you just go full frame 85 1.8. is it for portability? I'd think you'd have way more functional use with FF 85 1.8.

  • @WesKriesel
    @WesKriesel4 күн бұрын

    Hey @shotsbyalex260, thanks for your insightful question! You've touched on a key point in the crop vs. full frame debate. One of the main reasons I fell in love with the Fuji system is precisely because of the value proposition - getting a premium lens like the 56mm for under $1000 is fantastic, especially when I compare it to my experience with Canon RF lenses that often exceeded $2000 for similar quality. The price-to-performance ratio of crop sensor systems like Fuji can be really compelling. That said, you're absolutely right that a FF 85 1.8 offers incredible versatility. It's all about balancing factors like budget, portability, and specific shooting needs. Have you had experience shooting with both systems? I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on how they compare in real-world use!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

  • @shotsbyalex260

    @@WesKriesel I have never shot with Fuji. For years I only shot with Canon dslrs and when the Canon R system came out I switched due to the ability to use all the old lenses on the new camera. But I hated that the lenses were so expensive and there weren't many options. So I tried the Sony A7iv and haven't looked back since. The lens selection is unbelievable and since I never buy things new, the sheer volume of lens that are 1-3 years old for a fraction of the original price, is really good. But regardless of the system, I don't think I could ever go back to a crop sensor. I'm too used to the full frame. 56mm f1.2 is actually 56mm F1.2. I also love to shoot astro photography and achieving that with crop sensor is nearly impossible without a star tracker.

    Does this require the EOS webcam utility in order to live stream? Because my older canon DSLRs do require it and it's a pain to use with OBS. I was hoping that it will just stream through HDMI.

  • @WesKriesel
    @WesKriesel4 күн бұрын

    No, it didn't require the webcam utility. The Elgato (my explanation) transcodes the video signal from the EOS R so that it's readable as a "camera" for the laptop. This way you don't need the webcam utility.

    Youre well versed in cameras, obviously know your stuff……for me, some of its hard to follow bc of not being as equally versed ….but just bc of how fast you go. Too fast to compute bc I am learning. all your thumbnails are really good, (I click bc of it) subject material great/titles are what I need. But its just super speed.

    I’m on fuji since the beginning of my photography journey, first with the X100T. Now I’m going pro (I a documentary style alla Kevin Mullins, that’s the stuff I love doing) and I thought about switching to another brand or not. I made the decision to stick with Fuji for the reasons you mention, and for the love of Fuji, that sort of magic touch and the way you want to take the camera and shoot. Two XT-5’s for me as I love their look, the dials, the form factor, and its autofocus is good enough for me 👍😃 my favorite pair is 18mm 1.4 on one and 33mm 1.4 on the other, a documentary photographer l’a dream and so light set up easily hold with a peak design leash and a peak design capture clip at bell 😊

    I have no brand loyalty. I purchase whatever does what I am looking for. I just sold my X-H2S to get the R6MII, purely because the X-H2S autofocus was so disappointing. 40 fps and most shots slightly out of focus on targets coming or going fast, dogs, etc. No update or setting or lens allowed me to capture what I wanted consistently. With the Canon I get 99 out of 99.1 shots in perfect focus. I used EVERY possible AF setting and lens combination on the Fuji. The cheapest lenses on the Canon do what the most expensive Fuji lenses could not. The Canon weighs no more than the X-H2S and the cheap primes weigh very little. The X-H2S nails static targets fairly well, especially a small bird in a tree. Colors are good on the Fooj and I enjoyed it and the lenses. But to say the X-H2S AF is on par with the Canon is lunacy, it isn't even close. The low light quality on the Canon is also substantially better. I WOULD have preferred to keep the Fuji if the promised AF did what they had claimed.
