Fujifilm X-T3: Steve Huff Loves It, Robert Hall Not So Much, X-T2 vs X-T3 Face/Eye AF Comparison and More

Hugh Brownstone – Fuji X-T3 Autofocus and James Bond: Focus Pulls and Eye AF WORK!

Fujifilm X-T3

The Fujifilm X-T3 is definitely a huge step up in terms of speed. Hence, one of the most tested aspects of this camera is its autofocus and eye AF performance.

In fact, even long time Fujfiilm critic Steve Huff now finally fell in love with Fujifilm thanks to the Fujifilm X-T3 (video below).

But not everybody has just postive things to say.

Robert Hall has a rather critical view on the Fujifilm X-T3. Actually on the entire Fujifilm system. He is annoyed that the Fujifilm X-T3 came out short after the Fujifilm X-H1, with all superior specs. But he is also annoyed that it has no IBIS. And he doesn’t like the fact that Fuji’s wide F1.4 and F1.2 lenses are not fast focussing like their slower Fujicron F2 lenses.

Neale James instead is about to switch from Canon to Fujifilm X-T3, and shows you how painful it can be to wait for the UPS guy to deliver your X-T3 ;).

It’s all down below… enjoy it guys :)

Share

Fujifil X-H1

A firmware update scheduled for 2018 will bring “cooperative IBIS/OIS” control to the Fujifilm X-H1.

“Co-operative control” Image Stabilisation, so that the in-camera image stabilisation will work in combination with the lens optical image stabilisation“

Let’s hope we will see also pixel shift one day.

September 28, 2018

To our valued customers

Thank you very much for purchasing and using our products.

We have checked the performance of our application software used with “macOS Mojave” which was newly released from Apple on Sep 25 2018. As a result, we have confirmed defect symptoms below.

  • Application software doesn’t start.
  • A camera is not recognized when the camera is connected to a PC via a USB cable.

We will fix the defects by upgrading the application software. And we plan to post the upgraded ones sequentially on our global website from the end of October 2018.

Therefore, we would appreciate it if you could understand that the application software below cannot be used until the upgrade ones are released in case you plan to upgrade to “macOS Mojave”.

Leaving Lightroom Part 2: ON1 Photo RAW 2019 with Complete Lightroom Photo Settings Migration

Share

ON1 Photo RAW

We already wrote a “Leaving Lightroom” article a few days ago, when Capture One announced full Fujifilm support.

Now another company is trying to convince people to leave Lightroom, and they do it in a very convincing way: by offering you the complete import of all your Lightroom editing settings.

In fact, ON1 just announced a huge update to their software ON1 Photo RAW.

Amongst the others it includes:

New Workflow for Layers
Layers will no longer be a separate module. Instead, the power of layers will be accessible within the non-destructive workflow inside of Develop and Effects.

New Lightroom Photo Settings Migration
New AI-powered algorithms will give customers the ability to transfer Lightroom edited photos, keep the non-destructive settings, and move them into ON1 Photo RAW. See the video below or here. Check it out at ON1 Photo RAW.

Fujifilm GFX 50R: The Everyday Medium Format gets First Looks, Autofocus Tests and Size Comparisons

Fujifilm GFX 50R

I just came home from another busy day at Photokina, and I played again around with the Fujifilm GFX 50R. It’s a really fine camera, and my GAS goes strong, but $4,500 still make it out of my reach. So my money is safe (I think :) ).

For rangefinder guys like me, the Fujifilm GFX 50R is surely more fun to use than the GFX 50S, also on the streets and for daily documentation of life.

Kevin Mullins and Jonas Rask also said on their live talks at Photokina, that the Fujifilm GFX 50R is a medium format they enjoy to pick up and carry around for daily shooting, much more than a bulkier Fujifilm GFX 50S, which is definitely a wonderful tool for professional work, but not as “casual” as the Fujifilm GFX 50R.

So keep in mind that performance is just the same of Fujifilm GFX 50S. What the real difference is, is the shooting experience. So I will share a few reviews down below, but none will tell you how the Fujifilm GFX 50R feels in your hands.
