Fuji Guys Fujifilm X-T4 Unboxing Shows You What’s in the Box and What (sadly) Not

The Fuji Guys published their Fujifilm X-T4 unboxing video. Here is what you find in the box:

  • 2 QR codes (one for manual, one for the camera remote app)
  • Capture One Pamphlet
  • eyelets and leatherette pieces come already attached to the camera
  • nice thick and padded Fujifilm Strap
  • 5 volt 3 amp 5 watt USB-C charging block
  • new Fujifilm NP-W235 battery
  • USB-C to USB-C cable
  • USB-C to 3.5mm headphone jack adapter so you can monitor your audio while recording

They also unbox the Fujifilm X-T4 vertical grip, the VG-XT4

  • vertical battery grip

It’s a huge pity that Fujifilm will not include:

  • external battery charger
  • no more Fujifilm EF-X8 Flash
  • if you buy the vertical battery grip, you won’t get 2 additional batteries, like you get it when you buy X-H1
  • you can contemporaneously charge 3 batteries via UBS-C (1 in camera and 2 in vertical grip)

As much as I love you Fujifilm, but the omission of an external charger with X-T4 purchase and additional batteries with VG-XT4 battery grip purchase, is just a bad move. Those things should come in the box.

I did pre-order a Fujifilm X-T4 myself, and of course I added an extra battery to my order. I will also get the external charger.

The Complete Fujifilm X Series Guide Updated Now with Fujifilm X-T4, X100V, X-Pro3 and X-T200

It’s been a while that Fujifilm hasn’t updated its complete Fujifilm X series guide. But given the massive start Fujifilm had in 2020, with lots of new products released, it was high time for a refresh.

A few days ago, Fujifilm has uploaded a fresh new complete X series guide, and it includes all the latest and greatest Fujifilm gear:

Fujifilm Manager: “The Fujifilm X-T4 is Bashing the Door Down Hard on Sony A7III users”, X-H2 and More

Kevin Mullins and Neale James published episode 55 of the Fujicast. Once again, they host Fujifilm manager Andreas Georghiades.

Of course the main course of the meal is the Fujifilm X-T4, but they cover much more in a 1:23 hour podcast.

Here on FujiRumors we will highlight only what the Fujifilm manager said in regard to the Fujifilm X-T4. You can read it down below (in the podcast starts at min. 1:06:31)

Question: How many more cameras will Fujifilm launch this year?

  • If Fujifilm Japan will release more cameras this year, the marketing team will resign. Fujifilm marketing UK had the busiest 6 months he can remember. X-Pro3, X-Summit, House of Photography, X-T200, a few lenses, X100V, X-T4…

Question: What does the Fujifilm X-T4 bring, for those who might have been waiting for Fujifilm X-H2, that perhaps the X-H2 doesn’t bring

  • No comment on future no existent products
  • The X-T4 ticks all boxes people required when X-T3 was launched (IBIS, selfie screen, bigger battery)

Question: Sony is a strong among wedding photographers. Is the X-T4 a statement “look, there is Fuji now!”

  • He won’t dis on Sony, the manager used to work for Sony
  • Sony is a great electronic company
  • But for him Sony feels a bit soulless
  • on paper the specs add up, but they do not seem a well rounded package overall
  • The X-T4 is bashing the door down hard on Sony A7III users: the autofocus performance, the fast and quiet mechanical shutter, the 6.5 stops, it is the complete solution for everybody shooting stills and video
  • feedback from photographers and journalists is really positive so far

Question: When will the Fujifilm X-H2 come?

  • ……… silence ………

Fujifilm Japan Updates Camera Manufacturing Pages and Lists Fujifilm X-T4 as Made in China Only

Fujifilm Made In

There was some confusion lately, as we saw Fujifilm X-T4 beta samples marked as “made in Japan” and also “made in China”.

Now, I don’t know if this clarifies or further confuses things, but Fujifilm Japan updated its official “made in” pages, and the Fujifilm X-T4 is listed as made in China only.

On the other hand, Fujifilm X100V and Fujifilm X-Pro3 are listed as made in Japan.

This is the official list of Fujifilm Japan at their Q&A page.

Top Selling February Gear: Fujifilm X-T4 and X100V Boom, Fujifilm GFX50R Revival, Lenses, Accessories and More

Here is the best selling gear on FujiRumors for February.

Top Accessories

It looks like people ar getting ready for the Fujifilm X-T4 by grabbing the brand new batteries and the dual charger. I did the same, pre-ordered an additional battery and will very likely get the charger, too. Sure, you can charge all batteries on the X-T4 and battery grip through the UBS-C port in the camera, but having an external charging option is always useful.

Top Fujifilm Series Cameras

The Fujifilm X-T4 was definitely the hot camera of February, followed closely by the Fujifilm X100V. A great deal on the Fujifilm X-T3 assures decent sales also for the X-T3.

Curiosity:

  • X100V silver sold better than black
  • X-T4 black sold better than silver

Top Fujinon X Lenses

The constant excellent ranking for the Fujicron f/2 lenses shows how important the right balance between size and price is for Fujifilm users.

Top Fujifilm GFX Gear

A $1,000 rebate on GFX50R and a $500 rebate on GF50/3.5 pushed my personal favorite medium format dream combo on the top of the list.

Fujifilm X-T4 vs Sony A7III vs Nikon Z6 IBIS and Video Quality Comparison by Max Yuryev

Max Yuryev compared the IBIS performance and video quality of the Fujifilm X-T4 with the one of the Nikon Z6 and Sony A7III.

Details:

  • Nikon looks very sharp, but it’s because adds more sharpening and contrast
  • Nikon and Sony have 24 MP and both oversample from 6K
  • Fujifilm X-T4 oversamples from 26MP, and detail looks the same of Sony and Nikon. Just less contrast a less sharpening
  • all three look identical
  • in 4K 60p is great on the X-T4
  • going down from 4K to 1080p, Fujifilm X-T4 seems to lose less detail compared to the other
  • in 1080 the Nikon is oversharpened a lot and has more aliasing
  • the Sony does not have much aliasing, but has the least amount of detail
  • in 1080p Fujifilm is the best
  • Get the Fujifilm X-T4 if you shoot 4K or 1080p

120/240 Slow Motion:

  • Sony has 19 mbps in 120fps
  • Nikon has 26 mbps in 120fps
  • Fuji has 40 mbps in 120fps and 20 mbps at 240 fps
  • A little bit of aliasing on Sony and Fuji, but way more on Nikon
  • in the really tiny sections you can see that the Fuji has more detail
  • Sony and Nikon are similar, but Nikon more aliasing
  • at 240fps the Fuji gets lots more aliasing and loses detail
  • at 240 fps X-T4 looks slightly worse than Sony and Nikon at 120 fps
  • and yet, the 240 fps X-T4 holds up pretty good compared to the 120 fps on Sony and Nikon. Good job Fuji

IBIS

  • Nikon IBIS does not look that good
  • Sony looks even worse, and “is known to suck when you are walking with your camera“.
  • Fuji X-T4 IBIS looks way better than Sony and Nikon IBIS
  • there is a little bit of warping in the corners on X-T4
  • once he turns on electronic image stabilization and IBIS Boost,  it gets even smoother. It’s not as good as a gimbal, but it’s getting closer. Still a bit of warping in the corners
  • if you stabilize the video in post, the X-T4 footage stabilizes very well, because you don’t have those huge jitters
  • the Nikon with stabilization in post, you see all the artifacting, because there is just too much jittery shake
  • Sony is even worse, you don’t want to stabilize it in post
  • also for vlogging the IBIS works best on X-T4
  • with boost IBIS, the X-T4 is the most tripod-alike, but you get a bit of micro jitter. The Nikon has more micro jitter. The Sony has almost no micro jitter

Max Yuryev says you should keep in mind the X-T4 is still pre-production.

Fujifilm X-T4 Press Event Media Slides/Videos Compare Fujifilm X-T4 vs Sony A7rIV Autofocus Tracking, IBIS Performance and More

During the various press events for the Fujifilm X-T4 launch, Fujifilm has shown a bunch of media slides to the press.

Many of those can be found at the Spanish Fujifilm site Fujistas, others ad dc.watch, and others I have found elsewhere. They show some technical details about the Fujifilm X-T4, but also compare it to the Sony A7rIV and the Canon EOS R.

Also, on the youtube channel of the Spanish Fujistas here, you can see a few videos uploaded that show the autofocus tracking capabilities of the Fujifilm X-T4 also compared to the Sony A7rIV.

For our Spanish readers, you might head over to Fujistas, to check out the various articles he has covering the X-T4 launch event.

You can see his autofocus post here.

If course the Fujifilm X-T4 wins hands down in the video, but keep in mind it’s marketing material of Fujifilm, so I want to see real life comparisons, before I make any conclusion.

You can see it all down below.
