I'd love to see a comparison between this camera and the XH2S, since that seems to be specifically designed for this sort of thing. I can see the higher megapixels of the XT5 images coming in real handy though if your lens can't reach QUITE enough.
I do a lot of street photography and found that when using the 90 F2, I get much better results and less hunting if I use the focus limiter!
Hope you get back to 100% soon, thanks so much for these incredible camera videos… I went all in on Fuji and your videos sold me on all the "fujicrons", very happy with them!
Hi Kirk, this is one of the videos I was looking for. I am trying to decide on one of the following: X-T5 and Sony A7iii. I am struggling to take a decision, and one of the things that is making me doubt is the AF. I am planning to use it – apart from typical usage like portraits street and landscape – for sports: football/soccer and indoor gymnastics. I can now get the a7iii + Sony 24-105 + Sony 70-300 for the same price of X-T5 + Fuji 16-80 + Fuji 70-300. What would be your recommendation? Thanks
Good stuff, great info!
Good to see you back on your channel!
Thanks for the info. Running the new AF firmware and pleased to see that its faster and sticky in the subject detect mode; custom mode 2. Mixed results with custom mode 5 with birds in flight as it depends on what kind of bird you are taking a picture of; heron or swallow ie.
And the 100-400 is still a great lens wrt the upgraded 150-600 which is slightly faster.
In a couple of weeks I’ll be using the light weight kit 70-300/X-H2 at a soccer tournament and experience it as well.
Hi Kirk, great pictures. If you need more Performance, the Fujifilm X-H2S and the new Firmware update V3.00 ist the best combination for you. Especialaty including the handgrip with 2 Batteries
Hope you feel better soon! Sounds like the X-T5 is a great sports camera. Did you by any chance try tracking?
I have been experimenting with the X-t5/70-300 with and without both the 1.4 optical and digital TC at the farm around the corner. They have chickens, horses, goats, sheep, friendly pigs that graze on grass and hundreds of fast moving and perching New Jersey bluebirds and barn swallows. Getting the settings correct and setting up the X-t5 to quickly change settings has been challenging. I will be shooting a rooster strutting around his ladies 5 feet away in bird mode when two of the mini-horses decide to battle in the field 100 feet away. Of course this needs a quick change to animal etc. Your video was very well done especially when you list the details so I can pause the video and take notes. I only recently started watching your channel and now will give it a deep dive. THIS VIDEO WAS VERY USEFUL TO ME. THANK YOU.
Hope you get back to feeling 100% better Kirk! I find the vertical battery grips are very much a necessity for me, when shooting with my XT-3 camera bodies. Especially if shooting with the Fuji 100-400mm. Best wishes for you.😊🙏👍
Glad to have you back!
