X-T5

I worked as a photographer for ~40 years. In 2013 I switched from Canon FF to Fujifilm, because I needed lighter weight equipment to continue to be physically able to work. The early Fuji cameras had fine image quality but terrible autofocus and user interfaces. But those things improved and the ima

As the moderator of r/Fujifilm_X100VI, I've noticed ongoing discussions over time on other subs about soft shutter release buttons (particularly the screw-in accessories like the classic red ones) and claims that they will damage or "destroy" the shutter mechanism on the X100VI or other Fujifilm cam

Autofocus, hands down the OM-1II will obliterate any Fujifilm at this time. It's not even funny. Fujifilm is plagued with something worse than bad autofocus, false positives. Imagine seeing green AF confirmation squares, finishing a shoot, and coming back to see 30% of your shots are out of focus. B

Currently, I use a Fujifilm X-T5 for all my work :)

Get a Fujifilm and call it your creative therapist. There's an awesome community for film simulations and if you are only shooting to capture memories, it's a great camera system for that. I have the X-T5 and an Sony A7RIVA for both purposes. Great images for paying clients too. Cheaper than full fr

I’ve owned a lot of different cameras over the last 50 years…including various Leicas. While Leicas are a joy to use, not one of them has made my photography any better in terms of subject matter or composition. I can assure you, most people who view my portfolio could not differentiate which camera

I use both systems extensively. I switch between xt5, z8, xt20, xt 30, etc. If you're not a jpeg soc shooter, it's a significant improvement using Nikon. Full frame files from my z8 beat my xt5 images, despite the small difference in megapixels. I'm not sure what raw editor you use, but Lightroom ne

I just jumped from Fuji XF (X-T5) to Nikon FX (Z5 ii). I loved Fuji, shot it for nearly 5 years, and owned almost all of their lenses at one point or another. So why did I move to Nikon? Because I found that 95% of my shooting with my Fuji (as opposed to my Ricoh pocket cams) was either in service o

I'd actually recommend against the X100VI as your first camera, even though it's hugely popular. The X100VI's 23mm f/2 (35mm equivalent) is a great focal length, but as a beginner, you need to discover what YOU like shooting and what focal lengths work for your style. Being locked into one lens mean

I’m keeping my Fujifilm XT5 but I don’t feel the need to take it with me everywhere anymore. Mood takes such good photos!
