Fujifilm X-T3 Reviews, Tracking Tests and Lock-Up Reports

Fujifilm X-T3 Roundup

TheCameraStoreTV published their full Fujifilm X-T3 review. No IBIS, could have battery life, but for the rest it’s a solid camera. Check out the video down below or directly on youtube here.

And now to the lock-ups.

Dylan Goldby has tons of great things to say about the Fujifilm X-T3. Especially the autofocus is excellent. He was convinced and pre-ordered one right away.

However, he experienced lock-ups. Check out the video above or on youtube here. In his follow up video here, he says Fuji is releasing a fix via firmware update.

We already reported, that ZedProMedia also experienced lock-ups, but only when his X-T3 was attached to the battery grip. Using the X-T3 body only, ZedProMedia said the camera was “rocksolid“. In Dylan’s case it happened with body only.

BigheadTaco also said he didn’t experience any lock-ups.

Keep in mind that most you see is pre-production stuff, and in part some bugs are to expect while developing the final firmware. But let’s hope that once the Fujifilm X-T3 hits the market, the X-T3 will be bug free… and if not, at least Fujifilm has a great firmware update history ;),

Fujifilm Shows Speed Improvements from X-Trans I to X-Trans IV

Fujifilm X-T3 Speed

I am probably one of the few people out there, who has owned them all: X-Trans 1 (stolen in Greece), X-Trans 2 (destroyed in a river) and X-Trans 3 (because it’s too sexy). And with every generation, the speed improvement of my Fujifilm cameras was noticable.

The new X-Trans 4 and X Processor 4 in the Fujifilm X-T3 raises the bar even further.

A media slide shared by the Spanish site Fujistas (translation) shows how much faster the new sensor and processor on the Fujifilm X-T3 are compared to its predecessors.

The new BSI sensor improves sensor readout, and the X Processor 4 is a massive improvement compared to everything else Fujifilm had in the past.

FUJIFILM Says FULL FRAME Does NOT Make Sense For them NOW and Compares Size, Weight, Price of APS-C with Full Frame

APS-C vs Full Frame

At the Spanish press event for the launch of the Fujifilm X-T3, Fujifilm has displayed a comparison between their Fujifilm X-T3 and a “mirrorless full frame” system. The media slides were published at the Spanish site albomedia.

The comparison should show, how Fujifilm’s APS-C system is better balanced in terms of size, weight and price compared to full frame. Well done Fuji, now you opened the Pandora box of equivalency… watch out what happens in the comments ;).

When asked if Fujifilm would enter Full Frame, Fujifilm answered:

“We would have to start from scratch with the optics, and that would not make sense now“

In a recent major poll here on FujiRumors, most FR-readers agree that Fujifilm should stick with their APS-C and medium format systems, and stay away from the full frame slaughter between Sony, Canon, Nikon, Panasonic and maybe even Olympus soon.

As a consequence to your vote, I have shared a list of advantages that APS-C offers over full frame.

Mirrorless vs DSLR

Then Fujifilm also displayed a chart, that shows the overall decline of the camera market, and that DSLR sales are affected most by this decline.

When asked what Fujifilm thinks about the Canon EOS R and the Nikon Z series, they answered:

” it’s good news, as it will allow mirrorless to grow. It is always better have 5% of a market of 20 million that 10% of a market of 5 million”

We already discussed this topic in our article “Canon and Nikon enter mirrorless, and Fujifilm is happy about it“.

Fujifilm X-T3 – It Starts to Get Boring ;)

I am trying hard to find the one guy, the one reviewer, that is not really in love with the Fujifilm X-T3. But so far I am terribly failing.

So here is yet another Fujifilm X-T3 roundup… and don’t blame me if they are all very positive ;).
