![Fujifilm X-S20 Review - Tough to Beat [ Fuji XS20 ]](/img/n.gif)
Nice one, thanks for the video Olivia. This camera ticks all the boxes for me. Patiently waiting for my preorder to arrive at the end of the month!
Glad to hear it, I hope you love it as much as I do! Thank for watching 😊
I have found that the denoise feature on Lightroom also improves the colour of your image, for example, skin tones and obvious changes in colour like lipstick, gums and the white in eyes tend to mush together when your crank up the ISO, but with this denoiser I have been able to save so many images. I see this as the modern equivelant of the chromatic abberation/vignette corrections that have been around for so long, as instead of buying expensive new lenses, you can affectively get an extra 2-3 stops of exposure out of cheaper lenses.
The one majore issue is that it can make images look too smooth above 28-35% intencity, but overall even a slight improvment in grain can completly save the image.
10/10 would recommend going back and applying the filter to old photos you might have scrapt due to the noise.
This is one of the best camera review I've ever seen! (trust me I watched a ton of them) Very detailed test in different aspects on par with REAL vlog senario.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed watching it 😊
Great video. You showed how beautiful the scenery is in a great way with this fab camera. I’m very tempted by one but would have to trade x-t4. I like the size of this though
It is a great review of X-S20, Thanks for your help to guide.
My pleasure!
Fantastic review 👌 well presented too
Thank you very much! 😊
hiya great vlog as always i use affinity photo editing and im looking into swapping my current setup from nikon z7 and om1 rto wither the xs20 and 50-140 or 18-55 red badge lens or the xh2 or xh2s with series of lenses
This review is what pushed me over the edge to get the x-s20! I picked it up a few days ago but it's my first mirrorless so I'm learning a lot! I'm trying to understand lenses better and I'm looking for help from anyone. I like the kit lens (15-45 mm), but I'd like to add an ultra wide that's good for low light and maybe one other. I'm drawn to the 8mm for a few reasons because of this review and a few others... but I'm definitely a little lost on what may be best. I'll be in Asia in October so I'm looking for a lens or two that will be good for street photography, landscape, architecture and the occasional portrait, and something that's good in low light conditions (I'm thinking night time scenery specifically). I've watched a few youtube videos but I'm still a little lost on what kind of lenses I should be looking at, especially without breaking the bank if I need to get more than one additional lens. :/
Look for the Viltrox 13mm f1.4 or 27mm 1.2
Brilliant review! Thanks for the hard work:) This is the camera for me. 10 bit. IBIS. Lovely colors. Headphone and mic. Durable battery. And very small:)
I'll second that! Bet you can't wait to get your hands on it 😆 Thanks for watching Paul, appreciate the support!
I preordered it too and got the 33mm fuji. I'm excited
Excellent review Olivia! Excited to get my hands on one myself...
Also, quick heads up, some of the social links in the description are broken
Thank you for watching! No doubt you'll love it as much as I do!
Ooops, thanks for the heads up 😅 All corrected now!
Really great review Olivia! Much better than some which just throw facts and stats at you! Most reviews for this camera have been geared towards video and vlogging capabilities but how did you find it shooting stills? I only shoot stills so wondering if there are better Fuji’s for this! Thank you!
Thank you! I found the stills capabilities really good actually, great image quality, sharpness throughout the images and really nice colours. It's a great camera if you need something nice and compact. I think the question to ask yourself is whether you want an APS-C or full-frame sensor, which will depend on what level of photography it is you do.😊
Nice review. Very complete. Regarding the audio - I thought it sounded pretty good all things considered. Thanks!
Thank you for watching! 😊
pretty awesome review, thanks for the ai demo too!
Thankyou! 😊

hey there thats a beautifull video I Just wanted to ask is that got overheating issues while recording videos, I am intermediate cinematographer planning to buy my first ever camera Sony Fx 30 but when I saw your video I got confused please tell me the best one cause it is going to be my A,B,C every camera ! till now was renting cameras and using them but now its time to have my own. Thanks in Advance
Either your one of the best photographers ever or that's one of the best cameras ever❤❤❤
Vivid is great in the harch Sun, that blows out the colors
This camera is just absolutely 😮
Foto-foto nya sangat indah, dan video ini sangat bermanfaat, terimakasih untuk kerja kerasnya 👍🏻
You're very welcome 😊 Thanks for watching!
Not sure why you would want anything more. Sounds great.
this is my dream hybrid camera
I honestly think this maybe the best vlogging fuji camera for most people. Smaller and a lot cheaper than the xh2 and xh2S and no flip screen on the xt5
Excellent review! I was looking hard at the X-T5, but we travel and I wanted something smaller. I now take the X-E3. The 8mm is also very tempting. I use a Samyang 12mm, but all the reviews of the 8mm have been good.
As for noise reduction, while I have LR and PS, I use DxO Pure Raw 3. It does and amazing job. You might want to download a trial version and compare to LR. I'm subscribed to LR so I need to test it as well.
The 8mm lens was amazing for landscape shots and certainly when I was in the towns in small/tight streets! Great for capturing the whole scene.
Oh ok, I will give the DxO Pure Raw 3 a go. We have the Adobe Creative Suite package so LR is easy enough for us to use, hence why we tend to edit our images in LR and PS.
Wow, the results look superb. Nice photos and video footage. I think you've convinced me to go for an xs20 over the cheaper xs20 (edit: I meant xs10! 😄). The audio was also pretty good in my opinion, Malta looks beautiful too! Thank you 😊
Thank You! 😃 I loved this camera so I know for sure you will too.
@@WilkinsonCameras Obviously I meant xs20 over the xs10! 😅Thank you, keep up the great work! 😊
Hello I wanted to check the firmware version, but I couldn’t find it The disp/back button did not help Please write where is this window?
Nice review. U dont speak about open gate. Thats the feature i am missing in sony a6700 😅
Interesting camera, especially given we are waiting for a "flagship" Sony camera. Sony often manage to underwhelm and I can see people not prepared to pay £2000 for an APSC, snapping up this Fuji instead.
Great video! I'm planning on getting this camera but with the cheaper lens (XC 15-45mm) because the XF 18-55mm is higher in price. Does the camera overheat when shooting stills or is it only a problem while recording videos? Many thanks
Thank you! That sounds like a good plan 😊 The camera only overheated for me personally when I was in direct sunlight all day and filming high codec video. If you were to primarily shoot stills with the occasional video, then I think you should be ok.
@@WilkinsonCameras I just purchased it and still waiting fot it to ship. Again, thank you!
Beautiful shots. Have you tried out the USB streaming function and any overheating issues as a webcam?
Thank you! Unfortunately not, I only had a short period of time to test this camera and wasn't able to test every single function. During my time using this camera there was only one occasion when it over heated and that was when I was shooting 4K for over 2 hours in direct sunlight, which is to be expected. Other than that one occasion, I had no problems with it at all. Sorry I couldn't help more!
@@WilkinsonCameras Thank you for coming back with your experience. Love your work!
@@FilmScape4K You're welcome! 😊
Because if the features and size of Fujis lenses i also consider this the best travel camera.
Welcome to Malta! I'm using an XT2, XS20 and Z9.
Ooo a variety of kit there, how are you finding them?
The Fuji is mainly used for street and casual photography, while the Z9 for motorsport. Both systems perform very well.@@WilkinsonCameras
Will it work well in low light?
Would you pick the fuji xs20 over a sony a7c?
nice review
Glad you enjoyed it
It actually had better AF than the other cameras. They just released an AF update to possibly match this camera
Yes I believe they have, super exciting! The AF in this camera is one of the things that really stood out to me so taking it over to the X-T5 and X-H2 in a firmware update is promising 😃
I just bought this camera thankx to you😊. Can you please share the link of the monitor you used on the xs20
I'm glad I could help 😊 The monitor I was using to record the internal menu system was the Atomos Ninja V. Here's a link: www.wilkinson.co.uk/atomos-ninja-v-pro-kit/
Would have love a weather sealing to make it the ultimate travel camera
Agreed but that means an increase in price so I think it's a fair balance for the type of audience this camera is targeted to. 🤷♀️
I still can't get over the price of this camera. The bang for the buck is insane.
Your thoughts on if I sold my Nikon Z6 and bought the Fuji X-S20?
was all of the vlogging part done with the 18-55?
Yes all on the XF 18-55mm F2.8-4 R lens. There's a clip of me walking on the XF 8mm at 7:08, which might give you a better idea of the framing if you were to use the 8mm for vlogging.
@@WilkinsonCameras Thanks for the answer!!
Can you please give me a footage of 10 bit flog2 so that i can test the grading?
Unfortunately we don't share our footage for testing purposes, but I can assure you that the 10-bit F-log2 is 👌 Thanks for watching!
was this colour graded in post?
Stay tight, you'll get a reply soon!
🥰
Please confirm whether it’s weather sealed??
Unfortunately it is not weather sealed. This is to keep the price point down and relatively budget friendly.
IBIS doesn’t seem very effective in video, even compared to my older LUMIX cameras. Shame, it would have been a perfect camera otherwise, I hope they manage to fix it through firmware.
Fair enough, however Lumix got one of the best IBIS out there, even older ones I think.
Personally, when Vlogging I like a bit of shake and stuff, as it feels more natural. Gimbal like footage is great for B Rolls, but you probably can achieve that with this Ibis if you know how.
But I totally get you. Imo it‘s still unmatched for it‘s price atm with all it‘s features like Open Gate 6.2K. The neewest Lumix s5 ii has open gate 6K for ~600€ more (ofc there‘s more to it)
@@einShawn I think there’s a sweet spot between shakes and gimbal that is right for vlogging or casual filmmaking. I do very much like the value proposition of the S-X20 though, the image quality is brilliant. Like a mini S5-II. And the cheapest camera with open gate as far as I know (apart from GoPro).
do more vlogging review please
We'll try our best! 😊
What about overheating?
This camera only overheated once and that was after a full day shooting stills and 4K footage in direct sunlight with 25-30 degree celsius heat. I would say that's pretty good going compared to other cameras on the market!
Tavsiye edermisiniz.
100%! Especially if you're someone that travels a lot and would benefit from such a compact camera that has very very good stills and video features.
Only downside, no weather sealing
indeed, i guess fujifilm would stay at hotel if raining when they travel?😂
Indeed, I guess there's got to be some draw backs for a camera at this price point 🤷♀️
Unless they remember to pack an umbrella 😉
@@WilkinsonCameras or they gonna make a plastic case or something
@@WilkinsonCameras ya true
Why is it all red?
Hey, thanks for watching! We’re not sure what you mean about it being all red though?
@Wilkinson Cameras the colour of the video
It’s sorta mad maxy
Orangy
Redy
Was the video straight out of the camera?
I love the colours in the landscape but when it comes to her face: can you see how unnaturally pink it is? I sow on screenshot she used: standard colour profile and STD DR100. Can we get a natural skin tones in this camera? I love the specs but at my age I don't want to look like Barbie.
those colors looked pretty OK to me... but you always have the option to turn down the saturation or put some green in the WB, because at that moment the camera was on full auto and the WB can be kinda umpreddictable on that setting but you can put a shift towards green into your AUTO WB to compensate for the magenta if it pleases you
Why would you use Sony cameras to fill a review of the Fuji? Why not use the Fuji for all of it. Very misleading
Hi, Jason and Kim.
Most of the video is shot using the Fujifilm X-S20, including all the vlogging sections, scripted parts on the balcony, stills and video samples and even some of the b-roll when in Malta. The only parts that are not Fujifilm is the b-roll of the Fujifilm X-S20 camera and the park/garden section where I am demonstrating the AF abilities. You can find this at 5:57-6:13, 6:20-6:32, 8:31-8:41, 11:46-12:0.
We have several different review videos and many varied brands so practically this wouldn't possible. We would have a very disorganised workflow, especially when it comes to colouring and log formats. We tend to stick to Sony for the simple reason of filming B-Roll of either myself or my colleagues, who are using the kit we are reviewing. We are incredibly lucky in the sense that we get to work with many different brands and having to switch systems all the time is just not necessary. You will find a lot of creators out there have their own in-house kit when reviewing other brands and unfortunately that is just how it is. We would love to be able to use every single brand out there, for every single video we film but it’s just not practical. Hope you understand and enjoyed the video, regardless thanks for watching.
Olivia.
@@WilkinsonCameras appreciate the detailed response Olivia.
perfect travel camera is iphone!
😂
For the price increase from the old s20 they should have made it weather sealed.
Shame on you Fuji.
Weather sealing would have been great. Olympus can do it at this price point.
Yeah it's one of the most requested upgrades. Maybe they would need to redesign the body?
Whatever this camera is doing, even iPhone 14 Pro cam do and is even better is many areas. So why buy this one????
Sorry, but you simply can’t get the same results from a phone that you can get with an interchangeable lens camera - sensor size, autofocus, lens options… smartphones have very good cameras and very good video options, but these absolutely do not compare to any decent interchangeable lens camera.
