Tony Northrup continues his X-T2 coverage on Twitter. This time he compared the Fujifilm X-T2 with the Sony A7rII and Nikon D810 dynamic range/shadow recovery capabilities.
The Nikon D810 is the winner, but Tony Northrup was “shocked” when he realized that the APS-C Fuji X-T2 performed better then the Sony A7rII. See his Tweet here.
UPDATE: As Rico said in the comments:
“Tony was shooting the T2 at ISO 100, giving it a head-start of 1 EV. […] OTOH, the shutter speed of the T2 is faster than the 7rII. Another big no-no […].
DR testing is all about setting the different cameras to identical ISO/F/SS levels under a calibrated light source, then pushing the underexposed results up to normalized brightness levels with a RAW converter. THEN compare noise and artifacts, and make sure that your RAW converter doesn’t try to be too “smart” by applying different hidden input profiles.”
Oh, and after the critics regarding his recent X-T2 Vs. Canon 5DS-R comparison (where the X-T2 turned out to be sharper), he repeated the test in studio, no backlight, tripod, whatever… whatever he did, the images of the X-T2 (scaled to 50MP) are always sharper. Tweet here.

And yet another X-TransII camera has been discontinued by Fujifilm… and it’s Fuji’s most successful camera so far: the Fujifilm X-T1! Go to Fuji’s official Japanese site here, and you’ll read that the “production has ended“.
The only X-TransII cameras still in production at this stage, are the Fujifilm X100T, the Fujifilm X70 and the X-E2s.
