Michael what a fantastic presenter/teacher you are. Clear. Interesting. Valuable. Thank you. I am guessing you didn't get enough interest in an xt5 crash course, couldn't find it on your site. But if you do, please lmk. Thanks!
I am not a beginner but I would still be interested in a crash course on the xt5. There is always something that I don't quite understand or miss that I have picked up in some of your prior courses.
Coming from 30 years in the Canon ecosystem, to this Fujifilm XT5 being my first exposure to the Fuji world, this video is extremely helpful and VERY thorough. Thank you!!
I have watched this tutorial a few times, owned my XT5 for a year now and I still learn from you. Thank you very much, great video and very well explained.
Definitely not a beginner, but I’m New to Fuji and their dials. I wanted to try something different for my free time shooting and I was so discouraged with my xe4 because I didn’t understand how to use it hahaha. I wish I saw this video a year ago. But glad I found it now! I was actually Trying to sell my XE4 as I wasn’t happy with the way that things were turning out. This video made so much sense and simplified it for me. Thank you! I’m going to try shooting again this weekend with it when I’m out and about on the town and hopefully I get some better images!
I normally don't watch UA-cam videos longer than 10 minutes but I have to say there is some very useful information presented in a clear manner, that includes a concise explanation eg what happens if you use this etc , great presentation with very handy practical information, I'll be watching this again in a few days time when I get my xt5
I loooove that you did this walk through! I left behind Canon and Sony, and I was looking for my Tv/Av old settings. I am liking my Fujifilm so far. It’s def smaller!
Thanks very much, Michael, for a really useful course on using the Fuji X-T5. Super helpful in navigating around all the dials and options and providing reminders on basics like shutter speed, ISO, and aperture settings.
Hi Michael, I just bought a XT-5 and the Sony A7C. I saw your video related to the Sony and was amazing. Now you made the XT-5. Just arrive on time. Tks a lot for your videos.
Just picked this up after using a Sony Z VE10 and I really needed this video. I understand the top dials, but the drive mode and the T and B and C on the dials, the diopter, and focus toggle on the front. All foreign until this video. Thank you.
is it possible to do do min and max iso value in MOVIE mode? "STILL" works fine. But when i'm shooting video in dark areas, or walking through rooms with changing light, I want to lock give a max and min range. I can't find an answer anywhere. Do you know if this is possible and/or how to adjust it? Thank you
I’ve watched this several times as I’m new to Fuji. Excellent!!! I did not find anywhere showing how to set the operation of the two card slots. I.e. use one then switch to card 2; jpgs on card 1 and RAW on card 2 or shoot same on both cards.
I have been waiting for this one Michael. Just added an X-T5 to my kit and was looking forward to your training video. This adds to the ones I have from you for my D7100 and other Fuji bodies.
re-viewing the video and making notes as my own user manual and while the filter size is on the cap, it also is on both my 16-80 (72)and 70-300 (67) lenses. Good info about the SanDisk SD cards. I have the 64 GB with two rows of sensors but can't see the info on the front of the card for neither write speed nor speed indicator as mentioned. Maybe cards are different in Canada. I did also add a grip made by SmallRig but discovered that it was not possible to tighten the grip to the base of the camera (one I have for the X T20 by another company works just fine) but adding an appropriately sized lock washer allow the grip to fasten tightly. The extra size is very helpful in allowing the camera to be held in a balanced way but of course using two hands is important. You mentioned a Godox flash which might well be excellent. I had a Godox which I found the TTL settings to be not as accurate as desired and a friend mentioned the V1 which is new to Godox and is only about $100 more expensive but the light is better and the TTL is essentially dead accurate and any adjustment one might want to make is easily done with +/- compensation. My friend and I also use a collapsible white dome which gives great results either via a bounce direction or direct flash. Both items might be of interest to your viewers. Might be worth mentioning that some lenses with a marked aperture ring will not have an option to change from A to the aperture icon. My 16-80 is the former and the 70-300 is the later - Fuji lenses whereas the Viltrox 27 mm is also one that has a marked aperture ring. Can get confusing eh?
I would absolutely love a crash course on the xt5. It is my first ever camera and I got it along with the fujinon xf35mm f2 prime lense, I know this camera is capable of producing the most amazing images, but I just don't know how to utilize its features to do that. Sure a general photography course would help but it would still not gap the knowledge needed specific to the xt5. It would be absolute best to learn photography course directly set for an XT5 - that would be an absolute ideal course for me. Please make it!
Hi Michael thanks for the video it is the best I have seen so far. I bought a Fuji Film XT5 a few months ago and am ready to start learning how to use it. I am interested in purchasing your crash course. From reading the comments below it states (about 3 months ago) that the course is almost ready. But there is no link to it, and no further info. Can you let me know please when it will be available, and where the link will be. Many thanks. Looking forward to learning more from you. Julie
I've just purchased the Fuji XT-5 and found your tutorial very informative and essential watching for XT-5 users. Any news on the XT-5 Crash Course? It would be a definite for me. Thanks and greetings from Central Africa!
Greetings, thanks for your video on the x-t5 I went ahead and purchased a unit with the 16-55mm f2.8 lens and I am very impressed and thanks for your video. I just purchase a Weebii-s and having problem getting the two units talking to each other. I wonder if you and comments on getting the correct usb setup for x-t5 so that they can communicate. Thanks, cheers
‘On program mode, aperture priority mode and shutter priority mode, the camera will not give us that exposure preview’ 48:40. Isn’t that the point of having a mirrorless camera?
Hi Michael, great tutorial and helped me loads thanks. Hoping you can help, I bought this fujifilm XT-5 a few weeks ago. I've updated the software on both the Lense and body, formatted the SD Cards but every so often after taking a picture the camera just goes black, the camera is on and the indicators show on the LCD but its almost like I have the Lense cap on, it just shows black. I have switched the camera on and off a few times, removed the battery and waited for a while and replaced it again but with no change. After some time it just comes right and works fine again. for some time and then it just does it again, am I using it incorrectly or do you think the body might be faulty?
maybe I missed it but a couple of items I like to use are the rule of thirds grid and also the leveling (green line showing a straight image is being captured). Now I do say I think of this because currently I use an X T20 but may get an X-T5. Great production as to how to use the camera and if I do make the change, I will certainly do a review of this one to make sure I am going in the right direction. Hopefully folks will realize that X is just the shortest shutter speed that allows flash synchronization but slower shutter speeds will also work.
Thank you so much for this in depth video. I thought I had bitten off more than I could do ( I still Might have ) but this has helped me more than any other video has in understanding the basics. 👍
Hii! I’m a beginner and I’m following all your instructions but I have a problem and I don’t know how solve it. So, minute 44:10 you explain aperture priority mode and The thing is that I set my ss at A but it won’t go up to 30’. It’s stuck there. I don’t know why! If anyone knows please helps meee. Thank you😊
Your shutter speed to A means “Automatic Shutter Speed”- that means the camera will choose the shutter speed for you depending on how much light is entering the camera.
@@MMaven yes, I know A is for automatic but I’m already in a dark room and it won’t go up to 30’’ unless I move the wheel 🥲 I tried changing the aperture, but it won’t help. It says 30’’ in red color. I have ISO in C and exposure 0. My lens is a 70-300mm and I set it manual too.
@@nahirdr24 30" in red color means the exposure will require more than 30 seconds. Might be better to shoot in Manual Exposure settings if you need to dial in a specific shutter speed.
There is one setting I love on my Canon EOS system that I want to know if it’s available on Fuji before converting. That’s a setting to make autofocus only engage on demand. So it’s disabled when the shutter is half-pressed which is the default. Said another way, set it to only engage autofocus when you press the * button. That way I can focus on say someone’s eye by putting the focus point on their eye, pressing *, then reframe and take a picture without the camera refocusing on say their nose every time the shutter is pressed. This is a great setting for headshots for example if you’re at a very wide aperture with shallow DOF.
I would love to see an in-depth streaming/download series for this model. If you don't plan to produce one, will the T3/T4 series be close enough? So glad that you have a place for Fujifilm in your camera bag.
Hi Frank - yes we make them based on demand & so far not seeing a lot of interest. The t3 & t4 series will be close enough. Thank you for your support!
@@MMaventhat's a bummer. The XT3 one was great. The popular Fuji book series on Amazon has one coming for the XT5 book keeps getting its date pushed out too. I wanted buy both your series and the book. This is one of the hottest cameras of the year and your videos are most thorough, plus it's a one stop robust video instead of little videos spread out over years after I needed the info, so it's hard to believe there's a lack of interest. I wonder if UA-cam is hurting your views as this channel doesn't come up in search results (odd given the quality of the information). Your blog web site throws a warning which may deter people from using it, one person here said he couldn't get in, for me it was a certificate error I could dismiss. Maybe all things combined make it seem like there's no interest but really people just don't know and can't show interest if they don't know or can reach your site? I proactively searched for you when I found this video. It was not presented in search results until I looked up by your name. I think some things are preventing your customers from finding you. We are out here. We want the info. There's always little important nuggets of info to be used in these technical videos. I hope interest picks up.
I am trying to find out what settings are visible through the viewfinder - not the LCD panel on the back. So let’s say you’re taking pictures by looking through the viewfinder, how does the view compare to what you showed on the LCD panel? Is the exposure meter still the same when in manual mode - a bar on the left? Thanks
Michael, thanks for this detailed tutorial. I'm new to Fuji XT5 from Canon and find this very helpful. Question about the pressing the front scroll wheel to toggle the Aperture, exposure and ISO controls... I find it doesn't work for me. If I press and hold for 3 seconds I see a different menu appear from what you show but I can't make sense of what that menu system there is for. Have they changed this?
Hi Michael, thanks for your video :) I would like to ask your advice, when I shoot with custom settings in fine+raw, a message appears in the evf 'Memorisation'. Why do you think it slows down? Without custom settings it doesn't happen. Thank you very much.
Assuming the language is not English on the camera, I have heard that setting Clarity to anything except 0 will increase processing time to store the file. In English, you would see “Storing”. That may be what you are experiencing.
hey, thanks for this great video. I have a question, my iso icon is white and I can make it low and high as much as I like as if its manual, but its white :D what am i missing?
Thanks for the great content. I am a beginner and purchased the Maven Digital Photography Crash Course. I am still working through it, but I have found it helpful thus far. I would be interested in a X-T5 crash course!
Hi Dr. Michael, again another great tutorial. I searched in previous packages I bought from you and here but still I couldn’t find how to make setting my command shutter speed properly! When I put the wheel of shutter speed on C then by rotating the command wheel it’s changing 1/3 of stop and not 1 stop! But on my Gfx with same setting I can easily change shutter speed 1-stop based. Please advise what I am missing here on my xt5. Thank you
Thank you so very much for taking the time to make this much fort after video’s on the XT5 …..PRESENTLY I OWN AAND LOVE A XT3 but have not been able to get my arms around this new Fuji which Ipurchased mostly for IBIS . BEING IN MY YOUTHFUL EARLY 80’S and thus my camera shake is an issue.. again thank you for your dedication to TUTORIALPHOTOGRAPHY.. RUSTYIRONMIKE MIKE👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🙏🏻
Got a quick question about the custom white balance. Wouldn't you use a gray card to capture a custom white balance, and not a while surface in the environment? A gray card is constant but whites are not...?
One concern I have with eye detection particularly with stationary subjects is that unless the subject is in Full Face which is only one of 5 available facial views eye focus will offer a back focused image and thus the mask of the face that is not in front of the eye will be out of focus at wide apertures of lenses which now offer .9 to 1.4 speed on a number of different lenses. For this reason particularly when photographing a portrait of a human subject with a very fast lens at often wide open it is better to focus on the bridge of the nose allowing whatever DOF is available to keep the portions of the face that are both in front as well as behind the point of focus in "acceptable" focus. Then by using some software sharpening one can bring up the slightly out of focus eye(s) Keep in mind that when using either profile facial views, unless the subject is directed to look not straight ahead to toward (do not turn the head past the proper view of the face) something that the subject can easily view by simply adjusting the eye to see that object but now allowing the camera to see the eye ball and not the mass of "white" of the eye. The easiest way to do this is to stand in front of the subject and and ask the subject of look through the view you create with you fingers to find something in the distance and lock the eye on that object while you as photographer return to where your tripod is located in order to depress the shutter. HTH
Great video - thank you! How do you deal with switching between photo and video? In my ideal scenario I would switch to movie mode and the shutter speed would be auto set to 1/48 and the iso would also be the number it was when I was last in video mode. Is that possible?
Q: I've been using my X-T5 for 6 or 7 months now. I am a long time photographer (48 years) with mostly experience in Pentax, Nikon and Canon (for 12 years+). I can't figure out how to remove the "OK next" prompt after taking an image, in the (viewfinder, and also on the display as well)? It's the one thing that bothers me as I had it set to NOT show in the viewfinder/display initially, but after the reset of the camera, it's there... Do you know how to get rid of the "OK Next" text that appears? THANKS! 😂
FOUND IT! the Set Up menu -> Screen Set-Up-> Image DISP. It is probably set to CONTINUOUS. This will give you the "OK Next" message. To avoid, that set the Image DISP. to a time option, or OFF.
I take photos quite often but I don't make a living from it. I have the X-T50 and am trying to find out whether the X-T5 can do more in certain situations. So the question is: does it make sense to also buy the X-T5 and use both? In which situations would you take/use each camera?
Thank you, Michael. This was an enormously helpful video. Perfect level of detail for a recent convert to the Fuji system
This is one of the best videos I've ever seen on UA-cam - exactly what you hope UA-cam can do. Thank you so much.
After more than 40 years with Nikon, I've just switched to the X-T5. Useful to have a quick overview of functions.
Would love a crash course on the x-t5. Thanks!
What a wealth of information! I just got an XT5 as my very first camera and this video is so vital!
Michael what a fantastic presenter/teacher you are. Clear. Interesting. Valuable. Thank you. I am guessing you didn't get enough interest in an xt5 crash course, couldn't find it on your site. But if you do, please lmk. Thanks!
Yes I was just thinking the same thing
I am not a beginner but I would still be interested in a crash course on the xt5. There is always something that I don't quite understand or miss that I have picked up in some of your prior courses.
Great tutorial. One of the best I have seen. A crash course would be terrific
Thank you for this excellent tutorial. Now, I would like to watch your Fuji X-T5 Crash Course!
Coming from 30 years in the Canon ecosystem, to this Fujifilm XT5 being my first exposure to the Fuji world, this video is extremely helpful and VERY thorough. Thank you!!
I've had mine 6 months. Watching your tutorial I had a couple of lightbulb moments. Worth watching 100% !! I will watch again...........thanks.
Thanks for the tutorial. Now, I would like to watch your Fuji X-T5 Crash Course
I have watched this tutorial a few times, owned my XT5 for a year now and I still learn from you. Thank you very much, great video and very well explained.
I've shot Sony for 30 years. This is really helpful
this was an incredible overview and tutorial. fujifilm needs to pay this man forreal!
Definitely not a beginner, but I’m
New to Fuji and their dials. I wanted to try something different for my free time shooting and I was so discouraged with my xe4 because I didn’t understand how to use it hahaha.

I normally don't watch UA-cam videos longer than 10 minutes but I have to say there is some very useful information presented in a clear manner, that includes a concise explanation eg what happens if you use this etc , great presentation with very handy practical information, I'll be watching this again in a few days time when I get my xt5
I loooove that you did this walk through! I left behind Canon and Sony, and I was looking for my Tv/Av old settings. I am liking my Fujifilm so far. It’s def smaller!
Excellent start coverage! Enough to get an overview of the important camera features.
Thanks very much, Michael, for a really useful course on using the Fuji X-T5. Super helpful in navigating around all the dials and options and providing reminders on basics like shutter speed, ISO, and aperture settings.
Hi Michael, I just bought a XT-5 and the Sony A7C. I saw your video related to the Sony and was amazing. Now you made the XT-5. Just arrive on time. Tks a lot for your videos.
Are you going to make an X - T5 crash course. I’d buy it.
Just picked this up after using a Sony Z VE10 and I really needed this video. I understand the top dials, but the drive mode and the T and B and C on the dials, the diopter, and focus toggle on the front. All foreign until this video. Thank you.
Would love to do the crash course if it becomes available!
crash course please and thanks for the amazing video!!!
is it possible to do do min and max iso value in MOVIE mode? "STILL" works fine. But when i'm shooting video in dark areas, or walking through rooms with changing light, I want to lock give a max and min range.
I can't find an answer anywhere. Do you know if this is possible and/or how to adjust it?
Thank you
I’ve watched this several times as I’m new to Fuji. Excellent!!! I did not find anywhere showing how to set the operation of the two card slots. I.e. use one then switch to card 2; jpgs on card 1 and RAW on card 2 or shoot same on both cards.
Clear and concise. Useful as a refresher for me. Thanks
I have been waiting for this one Michael. Just added an X-T5 to my kit and was looking forward to your training video. This adds to the ones I have from you for my D7100 and other Fuji bodies.
Thank you Michael. I have learnt so much from this video, now I really want to get going with my photography.
Thank you Michael, greetings from Turkiye
Any reason why I see green waves in video recording? Thanks for any help.
Hello Michael ,
hope you're doing well.
Will be there a x-t5 course?
Thanks for the Users Guide set up
please make a crash course, i bought your course for the 90D i loved it so much. i hope this camera is gettting one as welll!
Great video, would love an xt-5 crash course in the future
Watching this one now and trying to adjust it to my XT50! I would love a beginners guide for that one. Thank you so much for this content!
There might be one on his website
I can understand your explanation very well even with my half English. Thank you very much Michael
Fadıl Çıtil from Turkey
This is fabulous…..best description of focusing I have seen….I went to your site but do not see the Crash Course for the XT-5….Do you have that yet?
Thanks Mike for all your videos and work.
Thanks!
I would be interested in the crash course as well
I've been in the photo world for over 30 years, but I'm new to Fujifilm cameras and would love a crash course on the X-T5
Michael Thank you, I have been a Canon user for over 20 years, Going through this menu was like learning Chinses.. PhotoMan-Jan
Very detailed video on the different menu buttons. Just got my camera and I'm ready to start exploring it's capabilities. Thank you so much ❤
I too have been looking forward to this, particularly the detailed long version. I appreciate the XT3 version from a few years ago. Thank you.

Would love to take the crash corse on the X-T5 - hope you make it!
Please make a crash course for the xt-5!

and that's how you do a tutorial. Simple, direct, easy. Subscribing right now.
Michael, I am interested in the crash course(s) about Video using the X-T5, how do I get access?
Would like to purchase the crash course - please produce,. I'm sure once it is available lots of people will be interested
Question: How did you get the Display numbers to show in in a different color other than white for the ones that are changeable/adjustable?
Michael, thanks for this detailed tutorial. I'm new to Fuji XT5 from Canon and find this very helpful. Question about the pressing the front scroll wheel to toggle the Aperture, exposure and ISO controls... I find it doesn't work for me. If I press and hold for 3 seconds I see a different menu appear from what you show but I can't make sense of what that menu system there is for. Have they changed this?
Hey Michael your videos are very informative, Please do one for Fujifilm XH2S and Sony A7RV. Please keep up the good work.
Hi Michael, thanks for your video :)
I would like to ask your advice, when I shoot with custom settings in fine+raw, a message appears in the evf 'Memorisation'. Why do you think it slows down? Without custom settings it doesn't happen. Thank you very much.
Assuming the language is not English on the camera, I have heard that setting Clarity to anything except 0 will increase processing time to store the file. In English, you would see “Storing”. That may be what you are experiencing.
@@JackieDElia thank u!
hey, thanks for this great video. I have a question, my iso icon is white and I can make it low and high as much as I like as if its manual, but its white :D what am i missing?
thank you for this video. Very much enjoyed the XT-4 one. Has the "Crash Course" been produced? What site can one view - order it? Thank you.
Thanks for the great content. I am a beginner and purchased the Maven Digital Photography Crash Course. I am still working through it, but I have found it helpful thus far. I would be interested in a X-T5 crash course!
Hi Dr. Michael, again another great tutorial. I searched in previous packages I bought from you and here but still I couldn’t find how to make setting my command shutter speed properly! When I put the wheel of shutter speed on C then by rotating the command wheel it’s changing 1/3 of stop and not 1 stop! But on my Gfx with same setting I can easily change shutter speed 1-stop based. Please advise what I am missing here on my xt5. Thank you
I would like a crash course！
Thank you so very much for taking the time to make this much fort after video’s on the XT5 …..PRESENTLY I OWN AAND LOVE A XT3 but have not been able to get my arms around this new Fuji which Ipurchased mostly for IBIS . BEING IN MY YOUTHFUL EARLY 80’S and thus my camera shake is an issue.. again thank you for your dedication to TUTORIALPHOTOGRAPHY.. RUSTYIRONMIKE MIKE👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🙏🏻
amazing tutorial !
Thanks for the great content.
Got a quick question about the custom white balance. Wouldn't you use a gray card to capture a custom white balance, and not a while surface in the environment? A gray card is constant but whites are not...?
Amazing
I'm buying Fuji X-s20 along with 18-55.
Would this tutorial help with that? I assumed that both have the same system
Great tutorial, i will be buying the crash course. Note : You are recommending the canon not the fuji battery 😂
Just picked up the XT-5 yesterday. Been watching allot of videos for the camera. This one has been the most helpful. Thank you!
Super clear😊
One concern I have with eye detection particularly with stationary subjects is that unless the subject is in Full Face which is only one of 5 available facial views eye focus will offer a back focused image and thus the mask of the face that is not in front of the eye will be out of focus at wide apertures of lenses which now offer .9 to 1.4 speed on a number of different lenses.
For this reason particularly when photographing a portrait of a human subject with a very fast lens at often wide open it is better to focus on the bridge of the nose allowing whatever DOF is available to keep the portions of the face that are both in front as well as behind the point of focus in "acceptable" focus. Then by using some software sharpening one can bring up the slightly out of focus eye(s)
Keep in mind that when using either profile facial views, unless the subject is directed to look not straight ahead to toward (do not turn the head past the proper view of the face) something that the subject can easily view by simply adjusting the eye to see that object but now allowing the camera to see the eye ball and not the mass of "white" of the eye. The easiest way to do this is to stand in front of the subject and and ask the subject of look through the view you create with you fingers to find something in the distance and lock the eye on that object while you as photographer return to where your tripod is located in order to depress the shutter.
HTH
Hey do you have something like this for XS 20?
Great video - thank you!
How do you deal with switching between photo and video? In my ideal scenario I would switch to movie mode and the shutter speed would be auto set to 1/48 and the iso would also be the number it was when I was last in video mode. Is that possible?
Q: I've been using my X-T5 for 6 or 7 months now. I am a long time photographer (48 years) with mostly experience in Pentax, Nikon and Canon (for 12 years+).
I can't figure out how to remove the "OK next" prompt after taking an image, in the (viewfinder, and also on the display as well)?
It's the one thing that bothers me as I had it set to NOT show in the viewfinder/display initially, but after the reset of the camera, it's there... Do you know how to get rid of the "OK Next" text that appears?
THANKS! 😂
FOUND IT!
the Set Up menu -> Screen Set-Up-> Image DISP.
It is probably set to CONTINUOUS. This will give you the "OK Next" message.
To avoid, that set the Image DISP. to a time option, or OFF.
How do I set aperture priority when I 3rd party lens that doesn't have an aperture ring?
I take photos quite often but I don't make a living from it. I have the X-T50 and am trying to find out whether the X-T5 can do more in certain situations. So the question is: does it make sense to also buy the X-T5 and use both? In which situations would you take/use each camera?
When is the Fuji XH2S / XH2 Crash Course Training???
We have finished production- Should be ready in the next 1-2 days!
@@MMaven The link to the crash course has an error - Just a heads up 😉
Hello! I have a very curious thing! Did you have any fever on this camera while filming this video?
Crash course please
