Fuji X-T2 tests

Hi there!
I've been testing my Fuji over the last few days.
Here come some results:

In Flog you get 13 stops of DR. Rated at 800ISO you get +4 stops in the highlights and -8 in the sahdows. But it's not worth it. On pro neg std you get pretty much the same results and it's waaay easier to grade. And you don't have to carry a heavy recorder.

Trick: under expose with this camera. Two stops under and still it looks gorgeous after grading. No noise or banding so far.


1080p is actually pretty good. Not as good as 4K downresized but rolling shutter is not an issue and you get real super35 sensor area.

Oh, and best skintones on any camera of this range.
 
Useful, thanks for sharing your insights.

Liking this camera, feels nice to use in general...
 
I've been shooting with the XT2 myself, its a great camera despite a few handling quirks. Personally I love Pro Neg Std and Classic Chrome for a built in look.

I tried the a6500 before the Fuji but decided to go with the X-t2 as prefer the overall build quality, handling and the lens range. Dynamic range seems equivalent.
I found the video autofocus better on the a6500, the Fuji hunts slightly in and out of focus even when things aren't moving - Using 16 1.4 and 23 1.4.
EVF and screen on the fuji seem slightly better.

Thanks for posting. I had an XT-1 and loved it. Sold it to go back to Nikon and the D750 and I regret it somewhat. I am still thinking about hopping back and getting the XT-2. We will see once they become available again.
 
FWIW, there is a ton of updates for XT2 and XT20 just released by Fuji. Those with these cameras should check them out.
