- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- Sony A7c vs Fuji XT4. What's the better camera for video? Who has better stabilization and autofocus? Has Sony caught up in colour science? Dynamic range of full frame vs aps-c? We'll do an in studio test with the Zeiss 55mm f1.8 vs the Viltrox 33mm f1.4. Then a vlogging battle in the streets with the 20mm f1.8 vs the 16mm f1.4. Who has the Toneh? What about slow mo?!

I can actually believe Panasonic loser 4/3rds making a refrigerator. Because they sell those here, and air-conditioning units, washing machines..
What tripod do you use for vlogging? I don’t have one but would like to try it out with my R5
Try the Fuji 8-16 Toneh 2.8!
How do i buy your luts
You should NEVER delete the files from your computer, always format in the camera man
I’m a Sony user, but jeez, I’m impressed by the Fuji colors, looks so natural but at the same time so cinematic. Kudos to Fuji!
fuji is not cinematic at all.i would say photographic chrushed blacks and ill skin tones..if you want cinematic go with blackmagic..a7c with tamron 28-75 can be beat by fuji in IQ.it's a FF camera
@@Baroque-Handel I’m a Sony A6400 user but Fuji has an amazing dynamic range, better colours and a higher video quality at 10 Bit 400mbps plus 4K 60fps and a DCI option.... I mean...
@@katseazzz And almost all film cameras shot on super35mm, so is ff really what makes it cinematic? That is a 1.4-1.6 crop factor.
i took your advice and went with the Fuji. Couldn't be more happier. thx man! :D love the channel.
I hope the powers that be keep sending this dude cameras. I have never seen anyone enjoy something so much and it so oddly compelling.
You're THAT GUY every person should have as a neighbor.
I paused the video @ 1:00 mark to comment this.
I got it right instantly the moment I saw the skin tone! It was Fuji’s beautiful skin tone that gave it right away! You know what? Coloring is very hard to do that’s why Sony doesn’t have the so called “Sony Colors”. In fact, the man behind Fuji’s colors, Mr. Minami-San, is still with Fuji for more than 50 years! From film, perfecting the colors, he transitioned it perfectly to the Fuji mirrorless cameras! So it’s not just colors per se, it’s how you tone the skin as well. And in Fuji’s case, the skin tones are perfect for whatever skin color!
Thank you.for your comment... As I watched I did think the Fuji has a 'film' look...
Foto4Max LOL. Whatever floats your boat man. Good luck with your “Sony Color”. If there’s ever such a word.
I actually learned something from a comment-thank you
HammerBann No not at all. I don’t care what people think. Fuji looks like a 90s grunge video? That’s good luck with the sony color.
Fuji looks a little warmer/yellower. But Sony looks more neutral.
Regardless, colour is subjective, and anyone doing video seriously would grade it. So doesn't matter what it looks like, but the ease of grading that matters.
Gotta give it to the Fuji.
Cuckoo should I get the Minilogue XD?
GIV’ER!
...the Fooooge
Will keep that shaving mirror in focus though ;)
A7C won sadly
Your content is as addictive as some things that shall not be spoken of
I love IT !!!
Much love from Staffordshire, UK
Haha, can't believe iPhonedo just did an impersonation of you.. what a shout out.. the two best UA-camrs on the circuit.. keep up the amazing work :-)
Fuji looks really really good. The Sony at 8 bit would be totally fine, especially for vloggers if the stabilization was better. Im totally down for lighter 8 bit files with a full frame. If it had super stability it'd be a killer for sure. Fuji looks very cinematic tho, like you could probably shoot a short film, commercial or documentary with it.
Honestly, this was one of your best videos! The comparisons were super well done (in our hobo ways). The first half of the video I was STUNNED at how well the Fuji looked. However as the video went on, I began to like the Sony look better. Also I was simply blown away by the auto exposure on both cameras. Both handled the sun / backlit scenarios like some kinda ultimate transformer. As I mainly review Sony APS-C stuff on my channel, the A7C is such a frustrating camera. Like, I want it, but also hate that they didn't make the LCD or viewfinder better, no bump in megapixels, and it's too high priced for what it is imo. Also looks like you forgot the affiliate link for the Fuji! slap that in the description. Great job on the video!
I always wonder when reviewing the video capabilities what do we need a good evf for? The LCD also just drains battery if it is too fancy. I think sony just stripped this camera down for video usage. Price point is ok considering they still have the best af system. Sure it could be cheaper and I also would take one free... but objectically what is the competition in that price range? I mean Fuji xt4 isn''t even full frame and there is also Panasonic if you don't need AF.
Even Nikons AF is better than Fuji, Nikons full frame line only lacks a flip screen. If they do a Z6 Mk 2 with a flipscreen it will be a beast of a vlog camera.
Dude, you’re crazy. I never know when you’re being serious or sarcastic. Still watching though. Entertainment factor through the roof. If you had a stand up set I’d buy a ticket 👍👍
“You should be doing it in your videos, and if your not that’s why you suck” lol Couldn’t have said it any better. You make the best reviews on UA-cam, straight to the point about the things that actually matter to the shoppers (the camera’s character) instead of just reading the specs sheet. I appreciate your videos 🤙🏾
Great video indeed he is a talented guy ! :)
The Fuji X-T4 was better, overall.
The Fuji lost you in the first minute and immediately let me know which one was which lol.
That too is.. a feature, it kinda blinks, so you know who's who😜
Knew where Fuji is from the first moment. Better skin color.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Sony a7c gives you teenage girl skin, so the new Sony color science isn't that bad. It's more reddish, but the new color science looks especially good on Asian people. At least what i've seen from some Japanese UA-camr that I watch regularly.
The Fuji though looks cinematic af. It has that dirty street look that might not be flattering for the people filmed, but it's lovely for the viewer.
LOL. The skin of a teenage girl. That's funny as fuck. However, that can mean a lot of things. I mean, there's soft and clear, and then there's Clearasil...
I kept thinking the Sony had to have some kind of skin softening setting in use. Is that possible? I know the ZV-1 has this.
@@CarsCamerasKavorka Maybe but I don’t see sony or any camera manufacturer putting skin softening in their pro (or close to pro level in the case of the a7c) camera cuz people who buy these camera would probably do it in post anyway and the zv1 was specifically targeted at creator that don’t have time to mess around with their footage so that is why they have it in there but there is a possibility that they have it in there because this is not a pro camera it’s a compact camera but I don’t see them putting it in there
@@techtutorial9050 Right. Seems unlikely, but Sony does some weird stuff sometimes.
I could care less for the cameras, it's the review that's gold here. I will now refer to my fuji as the fooj
Incredibly useful and original video! Thanks CC!
I've never seen a single video of yours and only happened to chance on this one just looking for a comparison between these two products, but you are more entertaining than the game streamers I watch. Subbed and liked.
It's so cool to see you with these cool cameras now compared to the early years
That 30% crop made it look like the camera was floating in front of you while running. Niiiice.

"Can you bow online?" 😂😂😂
I wanna bow you for being the most honest youtuber ever. 👏
Man, it's a great video! Enjoyed every bit of it. Thanks!
Most awesome compare video ever!! Loved how you did the side by side intro !!
This episode, is right up there....one of your best. Very funny, and informative.
Bruh ... seriously the most entertaining comparison video ROTFL 😂
Bro, I don’t even deal with any of this stuff but you are entertaining as hell. Great videos!
As always your vids are the most hilarious and informative of all the tech reviewers in Canada or the US.
Who is the most hilarious and informative in other countries
Man, I finally understand why they keep saying Fuji looks filmic. In the beginning I though the a7c looked better, but it does look digital. The XT4 just looks like what I would see in a movie. It just has it. Now I’m gonna buy one lol
Your video is so informational yet entertaining. Thank you.
The autofocus mating dance at 5:05 deserves a David Attenborough monologue and an Emmy.
I’m here for the humor. Your autofocus battle was a scream.
This video was both very entertaining and informative. I applaud you for that.
Fuji nailed it with the X-T4, and will nail it further with the upcoming X-H2
That intro. LOL, that's why I love this channel. Effortless fun
Inside the Sony was pretty good but outside Fuji looked so much better. I don't know what it is but the highlights are so pleasing - also the colors. I clearly prefer the Fuji - but there is Catalyst Browse which keeps me thinking...
The Fuji colour was significantly more pleasing, and the camera has 10-bit, 4K60 and slow-motion up to 240. The Sony offers Full Frame, far more lens choices, better dynamic range, superior AF, and the wire-free Digital Mic for the hot-shoe. Sony's Magenta bias, particularly in the shadows, let it down, but it would be interesting to know what choices you made grading the SLOG2 originals, and whether someone like Gerald Undone could have matched the Sony more closely to the Fuji? I was impressed with the stabilisation on the Fuji paired with that 16mm 1.4.
Not sure why people still use S-log2 with Sony. Log profiles are too fragile on 8 bit codecs. The smallest mistake you make in exposure or grading and the whole video is ruined.
Also, do you still lose autofocus in S-log? I know that the A7iii you lose phase detect in S-log iirc.
I tried shooting in log, but the workflow is too complicated for only publishing on social media. Graded a clip for 4 hours and there's always patches of broken colour no matter wat I did. Ended up shooting with no picture profile these days. Maybe one day when I'm doing real film work with 12 bit or 14 bit raw, I'll try log profiles.
@@professionalpotato4764 I have to agree with you. I'm comfortable in color grading and enjoy the process.. Sony's just fall apart, hate the magenta shadows and blocks. Only when I shoot with an Atomos Shinobi with my LUTs and manual focus would I consider log on 8bit Sony so I know how it will look after so no risk of exposure / WB errors.
Agree, Neutral profile or Standard slightly desaturated and less contrast turns out wayyy better. Maybe Cine. Once you start seeing the fine color details it really makes you want real cine cameras haha.
If you actually care about the quality of your footage and can be assed learning how to correct and grade properly then you have nothing to worry about. 8 bit slog2 is fine just remember to use ITU709 Matrix (watch Calebs video on why). I use A7iii slog2 itu709 for all my professional work (weddings, corporate, realestate etc) and have no problems doing heavy grading in Resolve and using color space transforms. You need to think proactivly with your footage and not pull stupid skin keys that fall apart instantly. Always WB with a grey card, shoot 1-1.7 stops over and use the HDR wheels, primaries, and hue curves in Resolve to make natural changes which aren't destructive. Even if you shoot on an Arri you can still make it fall apart with poor grading skills.
Unfortunately Sony's magenta shadows are a problem still on the a7siii, but even with basic ass skills you can correct that easily. Sony's actual cinema line gives you what slog 3 should look like (fx9, venice, fs7 etc).
I even don't care about the topic now :) I just like your personality and sense of humor
The 16mm 1.4 is a banger! Close AF AF!
A tempting lens to buy😆! Well I can afford it I am old.
610 subs Good!
@@larslindstrom1245 Get it! :)
How do you calculate the aperture (how did that f/1.4 became f/2 )
@@Karthik-The-Photographer 1.4 x 1.5 = 2.1. Approximate to 2. Which is pretty similar to 1.8
15:16 look at that magenta on the shirt with the Sony, while the Fuji has no such issues at double the framerate.
Came for camera/lens comparisons, stayed for the entertainment (I laughed more than I should've in this video. It's awesome!)
This comparison vid was funny as hell. Loved it!
FUUUUJJIIII!!!!! The Colors is not only an Advantage, It's the selling Point for me. Great Video!
Sony has their patented magenta blocks scattered across your black sweatshirt and backpack. You can't get that with the Fuj
It seems weird. From 17:05, XT4 has some magenta on this backpack (shoulder strap).
Fuji looks so much better.
in some scene, Xt4 color make sky turn to teal which green+blue combine, his face is greener, so xt4 color greener than real life. That green counter magenta. But some scence is reveal lol. xt4 color better overall. But it depend on how he set WB. and easy fix in davinci
@Gap I don’t think he corrected the colors from his video showing the process of editing his video he just raised the contrast and crushed the shadow a little bit
Lol ahahahah
This is a very helpful review! Thank you!
your slowmo test video is the best on earth.
Awesome comparison and love your presentation style!! very unique.
Not only was the live comparison here EXACTLY what I wanted, it was funny and goofy and informative-in-a-mildly-conspiratorial-way. I don't even know if the rest of your stuff is any good, I'm subscribing because it was - dare I say it: entertaining.
...I guess I dare.
I bow to you online sir! 🙇🏻♂️
Great content! Hilarious as usual!
dude you are so fun!!! and informative! nice vid
From colors it was hard to guess in the beginning but the autofocus made it easy for sony
The background blur was also helpful
He's using a $300 viltrox lens on the fuji. Check your donkey brain before you comment.
PJ it was just an opinion relax. Viltrox lenses are better than Fuji lenses
@@simonsalfred8354 wasn't even an opinion it was a fact. Idk why he's mad lmao
@@simonsalfred8354 well now you're just talking nonsense.
I know within 10 second from the AF performance. Sony never let you down. Never!
Only cripple their cameras to make money on the a7siii
I noticed in the first 5 seconds because of the color science
@@voltvisuals they have to do that to be in business
That A7C is mega sharp.
POV from a first time viewer: When this video first started, I thought "this video's gonna be a little weird". I wasn't wrong, but it's still a great video. Thanks for the great entertaining review and commentary.
The secret camera is definitely the X-S10! I’m adding to cart first thing on announce on Thursday, hope to see your first impressions on it too
Is there much of a comparison with the the XT4 and XS10? Other than the battery life?
@@sharedhomies XS10 owner here. The only real difference between it and the XT4 in terms of real world experience is 0.5 stops of IBIS less than XT4 and a smaller less powerful battery. Other than that, it's the same internals, sensor, AF system etc. Oh and the XS 10 only has one SD slot. The grip on the XS10 is much better than the XT4 in a overall smaller more intuitive package in my opinion. Also an owner of the GFX50s since launch ;)
@@destinationbushcraft1833 xs-20 just came out how does it stack up against a7c or xt4/xt5
This is the best channel on youtube.
You can fix colors but you can't fix a blurry video. - WW
Did you just quote/reference yourself with that sig
@@muszeuhs lol I think it’s a signature
I absolutely love my XT4. Great all around camera. Although i use it 90% for video.
Damn, I just came in from your other vid comparing a7iii vs xt4 and I didn't like the xt4 picture there but here? I love it... You got me interested in fuji... I'm looking for an aps-c... currently a6300 but the slow motion quality on that thing is just bad... I have to dig in more into the xt4...
btw. did the autofocus got better with updates?
I dont even care to buy a camera now. But this video is just so entertaining - about to grab popcorn and continue. lol
Ahhhh! Fuji looks great! I just don't see much happening in the way of lenses, whereas Sony E mount has lots of goodies to play with! Buying lenses on the E mount and upgrading the body over time makes more sense than doing the same on X mount. 10 bit color is really the only practical advantage Fuji has. Sure 240fps is fun, but unnecessary. Sony has AF, full frame, lenses, user-base. I'm still targeting the A7c and those tiny, mighty Samyang 1.8s.
The Fujifilm X-S10, to be announced October 15, can check out leaked photos and specs at fujirumors.com
Yeah, one of my favorite parts of owning an a7c are the Sony full frame e mount lenses.
Great video! To me the fuji looks sharper, better skintones (unless you want to do a Attack of the killer tomato's sequel) And it looks like it handles difficult lighting conditions better. The Sony might have a small edge for slightly better autofocus. So for people like me who don't like to colorgrade to much, the fuji is a clear winner.
"She ain't gonna invite you to dinner with that lens!"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oh the clarity of the Sony
lol, you are the most entertaining guy in camera review land. love it..
Oooooh, Kasey got the X-S10! Looking forward to the review.
Love that Fuji XT4 with the 16m 1.4
The 16/1.4 is too good for UA-cam. Somebody needs to develop an entirely new social media platform from the ground up that can handle the Glory Machine.
It was the lady walking behind you for me.. lol her face was great.
Good introduction of cameras 👍
Very entertaining yet informative. I need a weekly hit.
Thanks! You are awesome. I choose Fuji. I like the color, look more cinematic. Have FUN!
Pro tip for viewers. During the comparison shots you can go cross-eyed to see him in 3D. I’m crying now but still worth it.
Wish you could test the hobo lens (Samyang AF 18mm f2.8) on the hobo camera (Sony A7C). To me it sounds like the perfect advanced UA-cam hobo kit.
Your video let me do my choice. I will get the Fuji XT4. You are so funny! Thank you for the comparison
You are a trip
This video helped
Thanks
Cool style of making that video. Thanks. :D
That was fun! I love the weird humour! Great stuff!
OOOOOOOH, I'm so curious about the Fujifilm S10. I am stuck between a rock and a hard place with all these good cameras. I want one to film music videos. Excited to see your thoughts on that on the 15th.
Im new to Fuji and its been great, those colours, really.
The sony's colors break apart into pink blotches all over your jacket when you are outside.
Fuji bokeh & color grading is 😍
Also Fuji supports they camera for a LONG time ! Still firmware update on my XT1/XT2 !
Oh Fujifilm with a Viltrox lens on it! Where did you get that unicycle idea from!!
Both seem like nice cameras, just with different strengths and weaknesses. If they could make one at this price range, with the best of both of these... that would be killer. Fuji colors, cool styling, better IBIS, with Sony's better auto-focus, post-process stabilization, lenses, and no recording limit!
Only a week since I started watching your rants on cameras. Getting sucked into the Fuji black hole already. What's that sound???? It's the sound of The Fuji Cult just around the corner. 😂😂😂
16mm 1.4 performed very well
That 16mm is just magic
The 16mm f1.4 performed really well! So cute f2f meeting at 14:00 !!! :D
Your funny your expressions/humor remind of uncle Rico from Napoleon Dynamite cheers 👍
Great production and great info. You are quite entertaining and enjoyable, thank you!
Fuji by a million. But for real though that 16 1.4 is magic.
We need a video oh how to understand your LUT packs! I dont know what im looking for half the time when you throw them on.
Hey man, great vid - Is there any decent wide zoom for the XT4? Like a good all purpose for vlogging? Cheers!
Background on Fuji outdoors -- wobbly rolling-shutter goodness!!!
Fuji seems sharper like a katana ripping through neck flesh....however the autofocus in the Sony is like a deadly ninja blow gun..the sony Ibis looks like a jittery townsman as meets his end with the local samurai
I love that the commercial was for a cadillac xt4 to match the fuji
Overall I don't like the a7c, but fuji looked much softer in terms of sharpness. Are the Sony lenses just more superior or is this the full frame magic? In all other categories (except of AF) Fuji is a winner!
I love your sense of humor :P
