Fujifilm Bayer Sensor Roundup

We start this roundup with a mandatory mention of mototeacher instagram‘s page, since he just tattooed an X-T20 on his arm… a nice way to show his Fuji love :)

But then there is more, especially reviews about the brand new Fujifilm X-T100. This camera is great value for money, and Fujifilm is pushing it strongly, even by launching a dedicated fujifilm-xt100 page.

Let’s add to this roundup today also the Fujifilm X-A5, which is the other Bayer sensor APS-C camera in Fujifilm’s line-up.

Fujifilm X-H1 Old Vs. New Firmware Test

ZedProMedia compared the old Fujifilm X-H1 fimrware ver.1.02 with the brand new firmware 1.10, also using a Sigma 18-35 f/1.8 lens with Fringer smart adapter

He notices that:

• the AF improvement during video recording is massively improved with lenses like the XF56mmF1.2 and better also with XF10-24. Smooth and accurate AF.
• with the Fringer with the Sigma 18-35mmF1.8 more jumpy AF
• Auto ISO exposure not flickering anymore, very smooth
• this update will make a lot more people happy

You can see the video at ZedProMedia here and don’t forget to follow the dedicated Fujifilm X-H facebook page.

Mindblowing AF

ZedProMedia is not the only one, who thinks Fujifilm got it right. Our Fujifilm X-H facebook group is starting to fill with enthusiastic comments as well as Keno’s video demonstrations here.

“I was super close switching to Sony … I couldn’t use the X-H1 on a gimbal with AF. Had to use my X-T2s […] Now I can sell my X-T2s finally and buy a second X-H1 ?”

It does look blazing fast indeed… and if it’s too fast and not smooth enough, you can set the a different AF transition speed :) .
