Awesome Fujifilm X-T3 vs X-T2 Comparison by Mirrorlessons. No Purple Flare and Wait for Fujifilm X-H2 “Sometime Next Year”?

Fujifilm X-T3 vs Fujifilm X-T2

Mathieu and Heather from Mirrorlessons have just published the complete Fujifilm X-T2 vs X-T3 comparison, and it’s arguably one of the very best you can right now find on the web.

Here are some key points:

BUILD QUALITY

  • X-T3 survived 90 minutes in the heavy rain photographing a soccer game
  • Refined sub-dials and command dials make them more comfortable to turn
  • More customization possibilities on X-T3 command dials

TOUCH SCREEN

  • X-T3 touch screen a bit slow and lacking responsiveness

POST PROCESSING

  • Capture One and Iridient render X-T3 files still better than Lightroom
  • Lightroom – unlike Capture One – adds lots of magenta shift by default to the X-T3 file to display the colours correctly (+65 which is very unusual). Perhaps it is a bug that will be fixed with the next update

IMAGE QUALITY and FILM SIMULATIONS

  • RAW Shadow recovery: both cameras perform well but the X-T3 file has less noise. The X-T2 exhibits some red colour cast
  • RAW Highlights recovery: X-T2 surprisingly retains a little more information
  • JPEG: The two cameras behave in a similar way including how they preserve highlights. The only small difference is that the X-T3 shows more noise in the dark areas but also more sharpness. This means there is less noise reduction applied than on the X-T2
  • Both cameras perform the same up to 12800 ISO, with perhaps slightly more noise in the X-T3 files but you really need to pixel-peep to see it
  • JPEG: more pronounced colour shift on the X-T2 the more you add noise reduction
  • SKIN TONES: With a manual kelvin temperature, both cameras shift towards a green tint but it is more contained on the X-T3.
  • White balance: the X-T3 produces a marginally cooler result for outdoor shots
  • Subtle changes in some film simulations

PURPLE FLARE and GRID ARTIFACTS

  • X-T3 doesn’t suffer at all from purple flare and grid artifacts

AUTOFOCUS

  • X-T3 autofocus breaths new life into older lenses
  • X-T3 much improved face and eye detection that rarely fail even in low-light environments
  • Car rally: the X-T3 only delivered 3 completely out of focus shots out of more than 200
  • Soccer: X-T3 has about the hit rate of the X-T2
  • Birds photography: keeper rate of 60/70%, or 85/90% if he includes slightly soft results. But when the bird flew closer, the AF was usually reactive enough to keep the subject in focus. Normally in this specific situation, the change in focus distance is too big and the action happens too fast for most mirrorless cameras to cope, but the X-T3 did better than most and proved to be capable of matching products such as the Sony A9 or Nikon D500

SPORTS MODE BUG

  • When using the camera in crop mode (Sports Finder or electronic shutter), some RAW files are not written correctly and end up with a vertical black band, making the photo unusable. The percentage is low (around 10 shots on more than 200). Maybe something Fuji can fix with a firmware update because it doesn’t happen when using the full sensor area

VIDEO

  • X-T3 less rolling shutter
  • X-T3 uses face and eye detection in 4K, the X-T2 only in 1080p
  • X-T3 superior video specs

FUJIFILM X-H2

  • The elephant in the room is called Fujifilm X-H2, which mirrorlessons thinks could be out “sometime next year” and they say it could be worth to wait a bit longer to get the superior ergonomics and IBIS of the Fuji X-H2.

Do make sure to head over at mirrorlesscomparison here and read the whole in-depth comparison. It’s definitely worth your time.

And if you are interested, we have launched a few polls regarding the Fuji XH2 as well as a timeline on when we can expect the Fujifilm X-H2, Fujifilm X-T4, Fujifilm X-T30, Fujifilm X-Pro3, Fujifilm X200 and Fujifilm X-E4.

  • POLL 1: Are you waiting for X-H2 to upgrade/switch or did you get the Fujifilm X-T3 already?
  • POLL 2: If the Fujifilm X-T3 had IBIS, would you prefer it over the Fujifilm X-H2?
  • TIMELINE: Fujifilm X Camera replacement timeline from 2011 to 2018 and what this could mean for X-H2, X-T4, X-T30, X-Pro3, X-E4, X200

Fujifilm X Camera Replacement Timeline from 2011 to 2018 and What This Could Mean for X-H2, X-T4, X-T30, X-Pro3, X-E4, X200

Fujifilm Timeline

Today I decided to take a look at the refresh rate of the top/mid range Fujifilm cameras and tried to make a guess (NOT A RUMOR) about when the Fujifilm X-H2, Fujifilm X-Pro3, Fujifilm X-E4, Fujifilm X-T4, Fujifilm X-T30 and Fujifilm X200 (or X100V) can be expected.

Overall we can see how the Fujifilm X-E and X-Pro line are gravitating towards a 4 years refresh time, whereas X-T and X100 line are close to a 2 years refresh time.

WARNING

  • This is not based on rumors, and it’s not said that Fujifilm will always keep the same product refresh rate. Everything can change anytime.
  • Don’t miss the upcoming rumors and join us on Facebook, RSS-feed, Instagram, Youtube and Twitter

NOT INCLUDED:

  1. All 2/3 sensor cameras are not included, since the won’t ever get any successor (not even 1 inch sensor cameras, no matter what old patents say)
  2. X70/XF10: XF10 is not the X70 successor. It’s unclear if there will be a Fujifilm X80 at some point
  3. X-A line has a high refresh rate, but the FR community is for the most part not interested in this camera line
  4. GFX 50S, GFX 100S, GFX 50R: According to our rumors, the GFX 100 comes 2 years and 3 months after the GFX 50S. It’s unclear if the Fuji GFX 50R will also get a 2 year refresh rate or a 4 year refresh rate like its rangefinder brothers the X-Pro and X-E

If the Fujifilm X-T3 had IBIS, would You Prefer it over the Fujifilm X-H2?

Fujifilm X-H2

Recently we launched an interesting poll (almost 7,000 votes), where we could see that most FR-readers are waiting for the Fujifilm X-H2 and hence did not buy the Fujifilm X-T3.

But I wonder, is it only because the Fuji X-H2 will have IBIS, or do you simply overall prefer the ergonomics of the Fujifilm X-H2 over the Fuji X-T3?

Well, let’s try to find it out with todays’ survey.

So, imagine the Fujifilm X-T3 would have IBIS, and hence be equal to the Fujifilm X-H2 in terms of specs, and the only difference between the X-T3 and X-H2 would be the ergonomics, which one would you buy?

As a FR-reader told me, the same questions has been shared at dpreview here, but the poll there did get only 59 votes.

The unique thing about FujiRumors (and the reason why Fujifilm does read this website and your comments), is that FR brings together the by very far largest group of Fujifilm X and GFX shooters, hence polls always get a few thousands of votes within a single day and the comment section is always very lively.

So let’s try to launch the survey here on FR. Feel free to vote it down below.

Fujifilm X-H2: Are You Waiting for X-H2 to Upgrade/Switch or Did you Get the Fujifilm X-T3 Already? POLL

Fujifilm X-H2

After the announcement of the Fujifilm X-T3, I get countless emails, asking me when the Fujifilm X-H2, Fujifilm X-Pro3, Fujifilm X-T30, Fujifilm X-E4, Fujfiilm X100V or Fujifilm X200 with latest X-Trans sensor 4 and X Processor 4 will come.

I am working on this, and I will post updates on FR as soon as I can. So make sure not to miss them by following us on Facebook, RSS-feed, Instagram, Youtube and Twitter.

One of the guys, asking me about the Fujifilm X-H2 is FR Sacha, who wrote me:

“What would you think of running a poll to get a feel for the interest with the Fujifilm X-H2?

More specifically to have an idea of how many users didn’t upgrade to the X-T3, and are actually waiting on the Fuji XH2. This is something I see come back a lot in the comments of the X-T3 reviews so I’d be curious to see what a poll would look like. It could even motivate Fujifilm to hasten the X-H2’s release date, after seeing the results of the poll :)

One note: I feel people waiting on the Fujifilm X-H2 are actually mostly non-fuji users who want to switch to Fuji but maybe are still on the fence and would like the “whole package” with IBIS to really switch. So maybe the results for Fuji users could be a bit less in “favor” of the X-H2.”

And since your participation, ideas and contributions are the heart and soul of this blog, I will be happy to take Sacha’s advice and make a poll out of it.

Check out the poll below… and read the options carefully ;)

LOL: Fujifilm Already Sells Fujifilm X-H2… Fixing Bugs with New Cameras Instead of Firmware Updates Like Sony? ;)

As basically every new camera when it hits the market, also the Fujifilm X-H1 has some bugs.

Usually Fujifilm fixes these via firmware updates, which costs Fujifilm money to develop.

So it seems they are now going a smarter way, the Sony solution, and they simply kick out a successor immediatly, that fixes those bugs. :)

Obviously this is just a typo spotted by photographyblog. But since we are here already, let us know what you would like to see in a Fujifilm X-H2.

Fujifilm 2026 Predictions by PetaPixel: All Reasonable… Except One!

PetaPixel shared their predictions for 2026. Regarding Fujifilm they say:

  • PetaPixel says that is not a bold prediction, because they strongly believe it is going to happen: X-TransVI and new processor on X-Pro4 in early 2026
  • Hope: keep X-Trans VI at 40MP but make it faster
  • Fujifilm has too many camera lines, which are more based on design changes rather than hardware changes, so they did hold off on X-Peo4 for so long because they need to make a big hardware change to it
  • Fujifilm could merge X-H2 and X-H2s into one line featuring a faster 40MP sensor
  • X-H3 will come after the X-Pro4
  • Fujifilm will make a digital panorama camera stacking 2 APS-C sensors next to each other. It would sell absolute crazy

Thoughts:

There is a lot of talk these days about the DGO sensors:

I think staying in the 40MP range but using a faster sensor readout is a prediction that makes sense. Although I have no info about X-Trans VI so I have no insight to confirm that or not.

The idea of merging the X-H/S lines into one single X-H3 is something we discussed here. There are Pros but also important Cons to consider with such a move, so make sure to read this article.

As far as X-Pro4 goes, the X-Pro is certainly the one camera most in need for a refresh, so it’s understandable that they think it will be next.

So far all PetaPixel predictions seem reasonable.

All but one!

PetaPixel predicts the Fujifilm TX-3 panorama camera in 2026. To my knowledge, if Fujifilm will make one, then it would come in 2028, because 2028 marks the 30th anniversary of the Fujifilm TX-1. But at this point I don’t know if Fujifilm has decided to really make it or not.

What we know for certain will come in 2026 are the Fujifilm X-T6 in the second half and a compact camera with 1″ sensor.

But let us know your predictions in the comments below.

Coca-Cola Risked Everything on a Cheap Fujifilm X-T3 — The “Disaster” Is Stunning

When Coca-Cola started scouting for a photographer for a major global campaign — one that required flying him around the world — they came across the name Frederik Trovatten, a guy with 18 years of digital-marketing experience.

Little did they know that Frederik would shoot the entire campaign using Fujifilm APS-C gear… which, as we all obviously “know,” has a 0.1% autofocus hit rate on well-lit static subjects and a dynamic range inferior to a cheap Amazon toy camera.

Too late. The flights were booked. The campaign was shot.

And the results, are exactly what we could expect. You can see them in the video above and on his website trovatten.com – Instagram: @trovatten

Advertising Campaign

  • Coca Cola flew him from Denmark to Mexico to do commercial 30 days of street photography
  • the project resulted in outdoor advertisements (exhibited at Oslo train station), television commercials, and even a painted mural
  • the campaign was also shortlisted at Cannes Lions Advertising Festival
  • the theme: tacos + Coca-Cola — in Mexico and anywhere else tacos exist
  • the creative concept: using a “Where’s Waldo?”-style approach, subtly placing Coca-Cola bottles/logos into vibrant, authentic street scenes around Mexico City’s taco stands instead of making the product the loud focal point

His behind-the-scenes video walks you through his days capturing the raw, energetic life of taco vendors, and it’s absolutely worth watching.

The Gear (Brace Yourself…)

For stills, he used the humble Fujifilm X-T3.

For video, the Fujifilm X-H2S.

Plus an Aputure MC Pro light and a Rode lavalier mic.

He says:

there’s no reason to get these expensive cameras when you can do big campaigns, commercials with cameras that cost $1,200

The results?
Massive prints that Coca-Cola proudly displays around.

Of course, according to countless forum experts — whose combined portfolio consists mostly of long, bitter comment histories — this shouldn’t be possible. Surely Coca-Cola would tear down every poster if they discovered they were shot on a “cheap” Fujifilm X-T3. Maybe even issue a global apology.

Or… maybe not.

Maybe Coca-Cola is actually quite proud this time — certainly more proud than of the 100% AI-generated Christmas ad they released this year. ;)

Fujifilm’s Sony-Level Autofocus Is Already Here — Hidden in Pre-Shot Mode, Waiting to Be Unlocked

Here We Are Again

When Fujifilm broke autofocus with last year’s firmware updates, Edvard was one of the YouTubers who delivered the most detailed, methodical, and technically grounded coverage of the issue.

Some people don’t like his tone. Others dislike the sarcasm or the way he presents his findings. That’s fine. None of that matters.

What matters is that his findings were legitimate.

And because they were legitimate, we shared several of his videos here on FujiRumors. And so we will do again today.

It’s a long video, which I will sum up below for you – a short version and a more detailed version.

Certain YouTubers Ignore Reality ;)

But before we get into the test results, I need to address something.

Sometimes, you hear accusations that “FujiRumors is a Fujifilm propaganda machine.”

I mention this now because in Edvard’s video, there’s a YouTuber who was “featured” and who, last year, claimed I deliberately don’t report on Fujifilm AF problems—that I only push propaganda.

There’s just one problem with that narrative.

Beyond the fact that when large YouTubers discredit FujiRumors it obviously hurts the blog’s reputation (you then see angry comments towards me), the real issue is something else:

At the time the YouTuber made those claims, I had already shared on FujiRumors his very own video in which he rants against Fujifilm autofocus—along with many other critical videos and several articles on the same topic.

That’s a textbook example of cognitive bias: ignoring observable facts, blanking out reality, and repeating a story that fits one’s pre-existing beliefs rather than what actually happened.

Facts, however, don’t care about narratives.
And FujiRumors will continue to report both the good and the bad—regardless of who finds that inconvenient.

FujiRumors exists for Fujifilm camera users, not for Fujifilm as a corporation. And that’s why, once again, we have to talk about autofocus.

The Findings in Short

NOTE: extensive summary of the 34+ minutes video below

Edvard noticed that in pre-shot mode – when you half press the shutter button and the camera starts saving images on the camera – the camera has a terrific autofocus.

Focus transitions from far to near (and back) are smooth and confident. Subject tracking is excellent. You can actually hear the lens making constant micro-adjustments, a clear sign that the camera is performing many AF calculations per second. There is no hesitation, no stalling halfway through a focus pull—just continuous, fluid, sold, sticky AF behavior.

In fact, it’s so smooth and fast that at minute 4:52 he literally says:

This is Sony-like autfocus, guys!

And that’s where the real problem emerges.

The moment you fully press the shutter, autofocus behavior changes. The camera appears to perform fewer AF calculations, the lens moves in larger steps, and the result is visible hunting—especially when transitioning between near and far subjects.

Interestingly, fast burst modes help. On his X-T3, shooting at 30fps with a 1/100s, Edvard reports “the smoothest tracking I have ever seen on a Fujifilm camera.”

Which leads to an unavoidable conclusion:

The autofocus performance is already there.

Fujifilm just needs to bring the Pre-Shot AF behavior to all shooting modes.

Conclusions

Rather than seeing Edvard’s video as an attack on Fujifilm, it should be seen as good news: the performance photographers are asking for already exists inside the camera. It just needs to be unlocked more consistently.

If Fujifilm manages to bring that Pre-Shot autofocus behavior to all shooting modes, then this discussion ends overnight—and Fujifilm autofocus suddenly becomes a non-issue for everyone.

And that’s exactly why it’s important to talk about these things.

After 20 Years Shooting Full-Frame Flagships, He Took Fujifilm APS-C to Patagonia – And This is His Brutally Honest Review

Mattia Campos is shooting top-tier flagship cameras and lenses from all possible brands for sports and wildlife photography for 20 years now.

But for this trip to Patagonia he decided to try something completely new: the Fujifilm APS-C system.

So he got himself a Fujifilm X-H2S and XF500mmF5.6 and started his journey.

He documented his experience in a lengthy and brutally honest article, in which he shares truths that Full-Frame fanboys might not want to hear, along with fair critiques that Fujifilm should take seriously.

Was it a good experience?

In short: he was blown away by the Fujifilm APS-C system.

The best JPEG files and colors he has ever seen on any system (clearly superior even to Canon), ultra-flexible RAW files that did not make him miss his flagship full frame cameras and all this is a compact and affordable package you can only dream of in the Full Frame world.

In fact, he goes so far to say that the Fujifilm APS-C system could become a serious threat for all the high-end full frame competitors… if only one last thing gets fixed: autofocus!

To be clear: the autofocus is really good, but not yet on par with the top tier models from competitors. And he’ll explain what exactly did not work super-well in his article (and we sum up below for you).

I invite you to read the full article (written in Italian) and see all the images at the Italian website/forum juzaphoto.

The Article in Short

Preparing for Patagonia: Why He Chose Fujifilm

While planning his wildlife-focused trip to Patagonia, he spent months debating which gear would best meet his needs. In the end, he chose a setup he had never used before: the Fujifilm X-H2S paired with the XF500mmF5.6. Coming from years of shooting with flagship bodies and high-end lenses, the X-H2S felt like the natural choice within the Fujifilm ecosystem.

The trip included long and demanding hikes, but carrying the Fujifilm combo was never an issue. Its light weight and compact size—especially compared to full-frame flagship alternatives—made travel far easier.

First Impressions

His experience with Fujifilm was, in a word, fun.
He adapted quickly to the new system, though he did spend time learning menus and fine-tuning settings for different situations.

The X-H2S feels solid, handles beautifully, and offers a superb EVF. The XF500mmF5.6 delivers excellent image quality.

After 20 years photographing wildlife and sports with top-tier gear from multiple brands, he came to a surprising conclusion: for advanced and demanding enthusiasts, a high-quality Fujifilm APS-C system is the best pick in terms of overall balance of performance, weight, size, and price.

Why Fujifilm APS-C Makes Sense

With Fujifilm, you can build a truly capable system for less cost, size, and weight than equivalent full-frame kits. In many real-world situations, the image quality difference is not noticeable. Full-frame often means heavier, bulkier, more expensive gear, without a proportional gain in results.

Recently he has moved more toward shooting JPEGs for practical reasons: less time editing and less storage needed. Fujifilm’s color science is probably best on the market, followed by Olympus/OM System.

Image Quality: His Biggest Surprise

Throughout his Patagonia trip, he was genuinely impressed by the image quality.
X-H2S files are true-to-life, natural, neutral, and free of color casts, with exceptional color and detail. High ISO performance exceeded expectations, dynamic range is excellent, and the files are very flexible in post.

He has used many APS-C cameras from other brands, but none match the X-H2S in build quality, image quality, and lens ecosystem.

Compared to the Canon EOS R7, he found the X-H2S clearly superior in JPEGs, RAW files, high ISO, shadow recovery, lens selection, build quality, and EVF performance.

The XF500mmF5.6 is extremely sharp even wide open, with very pleasant bokeh.

Going Deeper into the Fujifilm System

His excellent experience with the X-H2S convinced him to dive deeper into the Fuji system, so he bought an X-S20 with the XF90mmF2. The X-H2S offers better autofocus thanks to its stacked sensor, but the X-S20 is still a remarkably capable little camera. Its joystick and lack of D-Pad annoyed him, but image quality—including dynamic range and ISO—may actually be slightly better.

Both cameras perform very well in difficult lighting while maintaining impeccable color and high detail.

The Weak Point: Autofocus

The only real downside he found is autofocus.
Switching from near to far subjects (or vice versa) can be slow, costing him a few shots every now and then—especially when photographing unpredictable wildlife. Continuous AF feels a bit rigid and less responsive in low light. Subject and eye detection work, but the menu system is unnecessarily complex.

Overall, the AF is actually good, but not at the same level of the top flagship systems he is used to.

If Fujifilm can overhaul autofocus responsiveness in the Fujifilm X-H2S II, it would spell serious trouble for all the competitors.

Why Fujifilm Could Become the First Choice

Given that Fujifilm APS-C gear costs significantly less, weighs significantly less, and still delivers image fantastic image quality, combined with industry-leading JPEGs, the Fujifilm system has all the potential to become a top choice for both amateurs and professionals alike, if they also catch up in terms of autofocus.

10 Fujifilm Cameras Meet for Thanksgiving Dinner and This is What Happened Next

Thanksgiving is here, and while most families argue over who burned the stuffing, we in the Fujifilm community know the real drama happens when our cameras show up to dinner. If each Fujifilm camera were a guest, here’s what they’d bring to the table — literally.

X-T5
Arrives with a fully homemade meal, proudly reminding everyone that every single step was done manually — even the gravy. Keeps adjusting the dinner table “for composition”.

GFX100S II
Brings a turkey so gigantic the table collapses. Says it’s “just a casual medium-format bird”. Everyone pretends they’re not intimidated.

X-Pro3
Brings a gourmet dish but serves it face-down, so nobody can actually see it. “Stop chimping through the dishes. Focus on the Thanksgiving experience first, not the results” it insists, refusing to flip the plate over. Spends the whole evening fully present and savoring every moment.

X-S20
Shows up quietly with store-bought mashed potatoes, super humble, not bragging about anything. Yet all the other cameras side-eye it because it secretly carries features no one else has — like that fully automatic subject-detection mode that does all the work while pretending it’s “nothing special.”

X-E5
Arrives with a small, perfectly curated dish — nothing fancy, but stylish enough that everyone compliments it. Quietly slips into a seat, looking effortlessly cool without even trying.

X-M5
Shows up with a perfectly plated appetizer, but keeps looking around the table like it’s lost. No EVF to guide it, so it improvises — and somehow, every shot still turns out amazing anyway.

X70
Shows up quietly without being invited… mostly because everyone forgot it even existed. Brings a tiny but absolutely delicious dish that makes everyone wonder, “Wait, why did Fujifilm never make another one of you?” Then it slips away before anyone can ask for the recipe.

X-H2S
Arrives with a towering trifle that’s already collapsing, fruit spilling everywhere, and layers sliding off the plate. Immediately realizes it’s still running last year’s flawed firmware, apologizes to the group, and rushes off to the kitchen to install the update — promising to return once everything is perfectly stabilized — it’s still there, struggling to connect to the smartphone app to finally install the update.

X100VI
Was supposed to bring artisanal cranberry sauce, but got kidnapped by scalpers as soon as it left home. Never made it to the dinner, leaving everyone scrolling online, refreshing for a glimpse of it. It was later spotted on eBay, held hostage with a wildly overpriced ransom for release.

X-T6
And then, totally surprising to anyone, a guest from the future shows up of nowhere: the Fujifilm X-T6! It brings a futuristic dish nobody’s ever seen before, full of features and flavors that blow everyone’s mind. The other fellow cameras on the table are curious, asks questions. The Fujifilm X-T6 just whispers something about having a new heart and brain, about firmware improvements, about features no other camera has ever heard of before. It ends up saying “everything will change” and then vanishes before anyone can ask more questions. Only left a note behind: read FujiRumors.com, and you’ll know soon enough ;).

The End

That’s my way to wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving.

And feel free to let more cameras join the dinner in the comments down below. Other brands are welcome too :).
