The Fujifilm X-T4 is official. If you are fine with APS-C, this is the the most advanced and fully featured camera there is by a good margin. It’s an absolute power house and really versatile.  The black version of the X-T4 with the 16-80mm f/4 kit lens. Here is my assembled hybrid Fujifilm kit with the X-T4 as the keystone. Or you can check out the camera itself on B&H . Links are potentially affiliated in this article, I earn from qualifying purchases!  Based on the specifications, I see it as the near perfect hybrid for a combination of photo and video work. They enhanced many aspects of the camera compared to the X-T3. I don’t have access to the camera, but I’d like to go over various aspects of it here. Just keep that in mind that I’ve not had any hands-on time with it. Important changes… Sensor based stabilization up to 6.5 stops with most of their lenses. This was apparently totally revamped technology compared to the X-H1 (mechanical springs vs. magnetic). ...

The embargo lifted on the new camera in the X100 series. The Fujifilm X100V ! I haven’t had access to the camera and probably wont unless I buy it at some point, but here are my thoughts on the changes compared to the X100F.  The X100V and X100F. I did own the X100F for quite a while. There is a lot to like about the camera, but there were some quirks I had found too. If you are interested in the X100V or X100F, here are my affiliate links to the cameras: The X100V on B&H:  Silver  or  Black . If you prefer the older one… X100F on B&H:  Silver ,  Black , and  Brown . X100F on Amazon:  Silver ,  Black , and  Brown . Or find the X100F on  eBay .  As an affiliate of these shops, I earn from qualifying purchases!  Here is my main video on the X100F ( or my video about selling it ). I see the X100V as a true example of kaizen. Kaizen is a concept referring to business activities that continuously improve all funct...

Fujifilm (or as I prefer to say…Fuji) just officially released details on their new X10 camera.  As I was saying, they have a different perspective with this camera as they did with the x100. 2/3″ sensor A fast zoom lens that goes from f2 – f2.8, with a minimum aperture of f11…? Is a minimum of f11 normal for smaller cameras? That seems odd. The most interesting thing about this is the manual zoom ring with the “power button” integrated in to it. Optical stabilization. An optical viewfinder. 7fps still image capture. Very attractive retro look with metal top and bottom plates. A good number of external controls for easy access to needed functionality. A few issues I see: It has an area of 58.1mm^2 for the sensor, which is pretty far from 4/3″ at 225mm^2 or APS-C at 370mm^2. Looking at it another way, it’s the biggest of the small fry digicam sensor options. Why go from that amazing x100 viewfinder to a physically tiny 85% viewfinder? Sure, it’s better than digicams, but how will i...
