UPDATE :: Bringing the Fujifilm X-T20 instead of Canon 5D4… and Solving the Green AF Box Misfocusing Mystery :)

 

UPDATE: Omar had preview pic effect 0.5 enabled, which caused the issue. Omar made a follow up video here.

Omar left his Canon 5D Mark IV and brought the Fuji X-T20 instead to a family party. So how did the small Fuji perform compared to the big Canon? See the video at Omar Gonzalez Photography Youtube. He also noticed that if you press the AF-button too quickly on different subjects, you might get the green AF box confirmation, but the image is not in focus. What happened and why it happened, at minute 6:30.

DPReview Fujifilm X-T20 Review: Silver Award

Fujifilm X-T20 Review

DPReview just published their X-T20 Review. At the end it gets the silver award with an overall score of 82%. They consider a good camera for photographers seeking a stylish camera with direct controls, excellent image quality and a great selection of lenses and not so good for action photographers and those requiring ultra-high-quality 4K video.

Here are the Pros and Cons:

Pros Cons
  • Excellent JPEG quality, especially color
  • Good high ISO noise performance
  • Build quality is solid for camera in this price range
  • Dynamic range is very good, though not class-leading
  • Numerous direct controls
  • Responsive AF system with up to 325 selectable points
  • High resolution EVF
  • Great Film Simulation modes
  • 8 fps burst shooting w/continuous AF
  • UHD 4K/30p video capture
  • Highly customizable
  • Exposure compensation available when using Auto ISO with manual exposure
  • External mic input
  • Camera can be charged over USB connection; external charger included
  • Small phase detection area compared to peers
  • Hunting can be an issue with continuous autofocus in low light
  • AF tracking performance is variable
  • No histogram, face detection or zebra warnings in movie mode
  • Auto mode switch can be flipped too easily, leading to loss of custom settings and Raw
  • Joystick for positioning AF point would’ve been nice
  • Fn button difficult to reach, even harder to press
  • Can’t access memory card slot while camera is on a tripod
