As it turns out, travelling with a camera in my hands is the most useful thing I have done to keep my mind and body healthy and clear. But if I can't do it, I then head to KZread looking for similar content… and I thought, why not creating my own? And so, here we are.

Crazy how good that intro was!
Beautiful, very cinematic.
What do you think about Fujifilm X-T20 with fujinon 18-55mm lens? How much is good max price for used body (only)?
What keeps me with the X-T3 is its fantastic video quality.
Wonderful shots, try to include push and pull horizontal motion of your camera with your arms with shutter lag, also great results. Also try to keep the shutter open longer and paint with your lens, works well in snow white washed backgrounds with someone or people walking dressed in black with an accent color jacket. It is an art but once you master movement with pulling and pushing techniques as well as painting and halting the frame at the end or the beginning of the shots after the initial or end painting movements creates more painted portraits. Again enjoying your videos, keep shooting!
Well said, fuji is amazing!
Made me want to invest in the lens and also go out there and take more pictures, thanks a lot
A reveal of the shots would have made this post much more engaging
Nice shots. Handheld or gimbal?
Hey there, thank you! It’s all handheld
What's the background music at the start?
I've been trying to decide for two weeks... Yes two weeks.. Xt5 or xh2... I heard the xt5 has some build quality issues.
Lens?
I always liked Sigma 17-50 on Nikon, but then changed to Fuji and since the first day I hated this, for unknown reasons to me, religiously adored XF 18-55. This one is nice, but still a lot of distortion corrected digitally, vignette is cool, also no stabilization which is a problem with my X-T3. Also being snob and wanting the aperture ring while knowing that it would be perfectly fine without it.
If you have a fixed aperture of f2.8, and you film slog3 so you're stuck on your native ISO, then you have a fixed shutter speed, how in the world do you control the amount of light hitting the lens? Does the job end up falling on a variable ND Filter?
Yeah. My ND filter is usually the only thing I’m adjusting on the fly as a run&gun video shooter, everything else remains as is
Yes, we Fuji folks are a community. Last summer when I was in Amsterdam, a man asked me about my Xpro2. He had one as well. Turns out we live in the same small town in New Jersey. By the way, my connection to my Xpro2 is as strong as yours to the XT3.
Awesome video! Just curious if there was significant price difference between the Japanese price vs the Amazon price?
The yen was a bit weak then, that and the fact that you can pay tax free made it significantly cheaper than in Amazon. Oh, and thank you!
@@carlosdomi thanks for the response! I'll be going to Tokyo and Nagoya next month so I'll wait for that trip and hopefully get the lens there.
Lot of confusion in XT3 and XT30 ii.. please replay which camera should i buy, only for photography ❤💥
Only just bought an XT2, looking forward to getting into it, seems like all the camera I'd ever need!
Love this video. Blown away by these shots
thank you so much - for passing by, for watching and for taking the time to leave such nice words
Great video, gorgeous shots, and inspiring words.
Thank you - I know it’s a bit personal but I thought maybe somebody would like to hear how somebody else is struggling with the same feeling.
@@carlosdomi Thanks for saying it. People are more alike behind our barriers than we realize. Especially as an artist I've heard artists whose work I admire are, or at some point have have the same thoughts, or been through the same struggles. It helps knowing we're not alone.
im in tokyo right now and you inspired me so much! thank you❤
Thank you! It was worth the time doing the video then :)
Love these thank you!
My pleasure!
great shots 🏃♂️📸
Cheers man thank you for passing by 🙏🏻
This was beautiful moviemaking - thank you for your inspiring video - I went and purchased an XH2S and a SIGMA 18-50mm lens - I will be using it in part to film some action scenes in my movies.
Former X-T4 owner.. Thinking about side-stepping the X-T5 and grabbing the XH2.. You're helping the cause w/ this video, for sure lol.
Such a great video! I couldn’t decide between this or the tamron 17-70, but now I know I’ll get the Sigma - Thanks!
Your video footage is unreal. I'm actually astonished. Did you shoot f-log? Also great review, the lens is indeed very impressive for the price and size.
Hey Mike, thank you so much for your words. This was indeed mostly shot in flog, then graded to taste.
What microphone is that?
Shure MV7 🙌🏻
👊 *Promo SM*
I was thinking of buying xt5 with 35mm f2 and just use that combo a while! Seems like the perfect fit!
What filter?
👌
I can’t notice any rolling shutter, did you use non-HQ 4K strategically to avoid artifacts? Also do you have any concerns with using non-HQ 4K for motion scenes?
If I am filming just for myself, for social media and KZread, 4K HQ or any of the 6k and 8k settings are just an overkill that might also come with rolling shutter issues. So, unless I shoot for work, I stick to standard 4k (can't remember right now what my settings are).
@@carlosdomi Thanks for sharing. The “crushed blacks” of the standard 4K might be overblown by the specs nerds then
I can't wait to have this in my hands, I bought one yesterday. i was so torn between this and the xt5 but I love the classic dslr look to it.
Nice! Which lens were you using mostly?
Sigma 18-50 2.8, which is why you'll see some autofocus issues sometimes :)
Hi, first of all: great video! One question: is this lens noisy while it's trying to focus? Like, is this lens good for video recording of people talking? Thanks!
I haven't really heard the lens autofocus engine, shouldn't be a problem! it's certainly not louder than the others
Bro what is the beat at 8:24? Shit is beautiful !
Hello, your review is very enlightening. As an amateur, I would like to consult you on a subject that I am quite ignorant about: I am mainly interested in macro and wildlife (flying birds, animals) photography. Is the rolling shutter problem a valid situation in photography? Although I don't use video very often, I was a little uneasy. My second option is the X-T5. Does this model also have a rolling shutter problem?
Will you buy the fujifilm X100V?
great camera and shooting a CINI lens and focus motor WOULD POLISH those edges
Thanks for this😊
My pleasure 🫶🏻
I hope instead of music Just let it be real voice
Thanks man, I like it a lot! I don't know what it is but the ambient sound of Japan is so calming and authentic. How was your experience filming with the XH1? It has no IBIS right? Did you record the audio with the in camera mic?
This was with the XH2, already with a pretty good IBIS, it's good if you stay still, but for panning and slow movements Fuji isn't just as advanced as Canon, for example. And yes, it's all recorded with the in-camera mic (much better than expected!), you can hear it when it gets windy!
I have just left Japan a week ago, and this video is making me feel very nostalgic already! Lovely edit <3
thank you so much :) this video was only meant as nothing else than a little memory capsule. I'm so happy to hear that it "moves some emotions" for others as well
I hope to get my editing skills to a level where I could make my own memory capsules, and yours really inspire me , great work@@carlosdomi
rare footage here of humans not hunched over their phones
Cool! Nice shots! Would be interested in a version without music though.
Thank you, Daniel. Without music was the original idea actually hehe I’ll try upload it without music tomorrow, why not!
hey there, again. A bit late, but as promised, same video but without music: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hXZr27aDgdGendY.html Hope you like it as much as I did!
0:36 What’s going on with the focus here? Does this happen all the time? Great video by the way.
That happens with the Sigma 18-50. That shot was actually taken exactly to show that issue for the review I did last year. I believe the leaves in this case are confusing the hell out of the lens. I should check if they have a new firmware!
great video! I’m tempted to buy this lens for my x t30 II. I have only one doubt: how I change the F in camera? Is it so uncomfortable not to have a diaphragm ring for street? Thank you again!
Thank you! You can set one of your wheels, front or rear, to change the F number :)
I am a Sony full frame user but have been looking for to build my wife a Fuji system because the compactness is more suited for what she needs. I was looking at this 18-50 and found your review video. I have to say, your shot at 8:11 is absolutely great. I love the layering of foreground to background, both in terms of closeness and in terms of how it's dark and lighter. Awesome video and great review!
what gear are you using in filming in the b-roll
Fuji XH2 🤝🏻
