@@Durio_zibethinus Depends on what you mean. For 50mm equiv, Fuji has the 35mm f2 and the 35mm f1.4, while Sony has the 35mm f1.8 and the Sigma 30mm f1.4. For a 50mm focal length lens, Fuji has the 50mm f2 and 56mm f1.2 while Sony has the 50mm f1.8 and the Sigma 56mm f1.4.
Fuji has a better selection of lenses, and allows you to buy cheap (XC) or quality (XF). Sony has more stabilized lenses, but they tend to be pricey for their level of quality. I chose Sony for the smaller 18-135mm zoom for travel. It's a fantastic combo.
The answer is simple. The choice depends on whether you're a Fuji or Sony guy. Both are just perfect and, believe me, the more we use a camera, the less flaws we find in it, perhaps more in ourselves.
Quang Nguyen not necessarily true. A lot of this are for people moving on to their first mirrorless interchangeable lens camera and looking for something inexpensive. What might drive their purchase is the feature set... not brand necessarily.
@@airdailyx totally agree with you on the case of a mirrorless starter. In my case, just somehow I picked an a6500 back then without much comparison with Fujifilm or Olympus. Although I found many things that my camera has not been good at, it inspired me to shoot everyday and to find a way to get better photos each time. I really loved it more and more along the way. Maybe I was born a Sony guy ^^
The thing is these cameras are not for starters, these are fairly enthusiast grade models that cost beyond a thousand dollars with basic kit lens. So most buyers will already have a brand they're a bit loyal and comfortable with. So I totally agree with OP. Both are wonderful cameras, and choice is basically dependent on whether you prefer Sony or Fuji. And the real starter mirrorless camera? Well that's the wonderful Canon M50 at 500 bucks, half these cameras, with an EVF better than both these 1000$ cameras and a better LCD quality and articulation, better wifi/wireless system for instant sharing, and a much cheaper lens selection than any of these companies with the amazing 22 + 32 + 50 trio plus that lovely 11-22!
Ryan Huddleston congratulations ryan. How is the handling of the camera? Which lenses are you using with it? If you have attached hand grip, does the camera feel heavy?
Stupid question, but the 4k video limit is just referring to files, right? I can record a scene for an hour and then stitch the files together for a continuous scene? Do you know what the file size of a 4k 10 bit video is (10 minute segment)?
*Intro music and graphic play.* Hey guys welcome to my video channel! Don't forget to like or subscribe. First, let's spend three minutes talking about SQUARESPACE and how they changed my life....
Both are great. Had a6000 and replaced it for the Fuji - the form factor and design just makes you want to grab it more often, the film simulations are wonderful and the dials are so fun to use. My 2 cents.
Both cameras are awesome! I already own some E-mount lenses for my a6000, so the a6400 upgrade is a no brainer for me. But if I were starting over, I wouldn't have any issues with buying the X-T30 instead.
Wait a minute, there is a cap for how long you can record in 4K and 1080p on the fuji? What exactly does that mean? Like in segments? If i want to record a scene for an hour, it will still record that whole hour but i will have to stitch the 10 minute segments together, correct?
@blacklizted That is THE ONLY thing that's preventing me to get the Sony - that bloody rolling shutter!! I can live without the ND filter and smaller batteries, but video is my thing, and I toss an turn about this frustrating issue over and over again. So no, it isn't Sony all day every day! Pfftt..
Nicely levelled review. Like that you only strive the common cliches and give a balanced look. Fujis in camera processing doesn't get so many mentions any more but was a big point to me ... X-T3 for me however due to handling and WR. Not gonna follow release cycles when buying a camera :D
Hi chris, I am just into photography. And weight, handling and image quality is very important to me. Is there a lot of difference in their image quality? Which of them is more comfortable to use? What will i miss out from the other if i choose either of them? Are sigma 16mm f1.4 and 56mm f1.4 really good enough to choose sony a6400? No doubt fujifilm lenses are amazing but they are nearly double the price. Will that less expensive combo be sufficient for me? Answers to these questions might help me decide. Thank you
I wanted to get the fuji as a backup camera for the 10bit video, aesthetics and film emulations, but being I already had a Sony A73 I went with the 6400 because of my exisiting emount lenses, crazy good autofocus and unlimited video record time.
At 3:08 fuji video shows black “shadows” on the highlights in the sky. I’m having the same issue with the X-T3 in Premiere Pro 13.1 ANY IDEA HOY TO GET RID OF THOSE ANNOYING BLACK SHADOWS?! PS: adobe forums didn’t have an answer... and FCPX reads the highlights in the same files without that problem...
The analog controls on the Fujifilm are fantastic. I use the camera, almost never having to go into the menus. The camera is intuitive, the quality it stellar. Sony must be a good product, but I'll keep the Fujifilm.
I was almost sold on geting a Sony a6400, but now I'm taking a hard look at the XT-30. I am at a point thwere I have to start (again) to get new glass, and used to have Canon DSLR before. Bu tI like the line up of Fuji glass (especially the small prime lenses), and the looks and control layout of the Fuji bring me back to the first 35mm film rangefinder camera I bought at a pawn shop when I first started in photography. The images on the Fuji also look great off the box, so it would make things easier, and let you concentrate on shooting, rather than having to spend a lot of time on post processing. WIth the Sony, though the weather sealing and auto-focus are unbeatable, but ultimately, I do like the looks of the Fuji (I like teh look of teh XE-3 a bit more, but the XT-30 is pretty in the silver or black colors). I'd go with a silver Fuji XT-30....
Hi. Tell me please, what kind of camera do you think the A6400 kit 18-135 or Fuji X-T30 kit 18-55 takes? I do not know how to process photos and videos. Need a camera for home use. Shoot nature on fishing and baby. Fuji likes color presets, but autofocus is also important. A lot of bloggers said that Fuji AF is worse, losing face.Thanks
Slight error during the video segment the title card on the left said "a6300" instead of "a6400). For me the Fuji's are not comfortable to hold/grip so I didnt get one even though I wanted one for the color and bnw film sims. I love my Sony's (3 of them)
The Sony a6400 makes a great second camera to my A7iii. I constantly use full frame lenses on it and my personal favorite combo is the a6400 with the Sony 70-300mm G where I get OSS and a 450mm equivalent from the crop. This plus the AF makes it one of those most portable run and gun nature photography kits I can make. If you haven't tried the AF with the Sony a6400 then do so before you buy any of the cameras. It's a good predictor for how you will shoot full frame AF-C in the future.
How do the hump and bump feel in the hand? Does the pinkie finger get any action on either of them? Never liked the X-T20's lackluster bump. I prefer a substantial hump that can handle more lens gi... okay, I'm done. ;D Either camera would pretty great for a lot of people I'm sure. In this case handling is probably a big factor because both have really solid specifications.
I went wth the Fuji. I'm a beginner. I wanted a camera that was versatile and gave me room to grow. The menu is really straight forward and the dials aid my learning. Its fun to play with and encourages me to shoot. Didn't cost an arm and a leg either.
Wondering if there's been a firmware update for the Fuji in the time since this video has been published that would narrow the Sony's autofocus advantage?
Hey good review! Just one question you guyz read off que cards? Write and remember your lines? Or total talking flying off the seat of your pants? Just realized I never think about how much time you spend trying to make it flow simple executed brilliantly.
Weve never scripted any of our shows. We do make research notes, but otherwise we just let things flow the way they flow. We feel it gives a more natural and sincere impression.
I can't believe I am the only one who absolutely hate the fact the this fuji has such a shallow grip. I don't understand how nobody criticize that. These cameras are very different in terms of handling. I have a glued grip to my X-T20. It's impossible to use it without one, for a long time.
@@Johnny847 There is a reason Chris is holding the A6400 by it's grip and X-t30 by the lens. I never feel safe holding my X-T20 on it's tinny grip. If it's good for you that's ok. What I don't get is some reviewers criticizing how camera X, has a shallow grip when that specific grip is 3 times bigger than the X-T30 and when they get the X-T30 there is no complain on the grip.
Few years ago, the choice between Sony a6300 and Fuji XT20 was also a difficult one, eventually I decided to take Sony because it's more video oriented and there was huge price drop for black friday. Now it would be even harder to choose between XT30 and a6400. Both are such a great cameras.
The fact that you used The Dipset for your album riff gets 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿from me! Who knew y’all was repping with the Dips! Y’all invited to the cookout I mean barbecue 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I owned both xt20 and xt30. When i first hold the xt20 2 years ago, i was not please with the ergo and handgrip. It's too light, plasticky, and not stable to hold. But with time, i learned to appreciate its shortcomings. Because xt20 is small in size, it wont receive as much attention. Because xt20 is light, i can shot all day long without hurting my shoulder muscle. Its shortcomings are its strength and that's why i'm buying the new xt30.
Great comparison, the xt30's video record limit is a very annoying limit. I think it's mostly due to heat but more testing is require to figure that out.
It is. When Fuji used the A6300 sensor for their 24MP cameras, they still had one of the recording limits in the industry. Processing X-Trans is more intensive than standard Bayer, so it takes more processing and therefore creates more heat, to do the same thing a simple Bayer sensor does.
What about wireless connectivity and apps? With the x-t30 you can dump all youre pictures to your phone with BT 4.2, start working on them in LR mobile and as soon as youre phone is connected to wifi the pics uploads to the LR cloud and other clouds, so you have a backups and you can continue the post work on youre computer. The app allows live view and remote controll so you can use youre phone as a monitor when in front off the camera.
You didn't mention three important things: 1) LR doesn't handle Fuji files well 2) it is uncomfortable to hold Fuji due to a very small grip, you have to purchase an extra one to improve the handling 3) You can upgrade from a6400 to a full frame and keep some lenses - Sony has one mount. Especially the last one is a big win for Sony. Yes, I like Fuji colors, yes, it looks nice, but in the end that is not what is the most important, at least not for me.
I like the 6400 but I feel if I buy a 6500 I can buy cheaper prime lens that offer better color profile and the 6500 offer IBIS. What is your thoughts?
Love the looks of the Fuji and the lens options. But I tried both in the shop and for my hands the Fuji just feels not comfortable. Like it will fall out of my hand. The grip not working for me. Sony grip feels way more secure and comfortable for me. Nikon Z50 feels good in my hand too. But so far I am leaning towards the a6400.
I tried Fuji XT20 many times in camera stores while I was using a6000 series. I felt the Fuji grip wasn’t good, had flimsy body and operated slow overall compared to Sony a6000. I decided to keep my A6000 and then move on to Sony full frames . Has XT30 fixed theses issues?
Isn't it ironic how the specs of a camera become irrelevant the moment you take it into your hand and the grip feels just not right? I am looking at you m50, I would have taking you as secondary, but this grip is just made for my hands. If I would be 9, my hands properly would fit.
good day! Fujifilm service centre asked me 1000$ for repairing my xh1 (changing motherboard and electronic cheap front body behind sensor) with 2 months guarantee only! which is not costly and not acceptable at all, since lack of trust to work as before and lower the price of new one currently. therefore I think its better to save this 1000$ and wait for the next version of XH1, probably XH2. please let me know how long should I wait for it? any approved rumours? I NEED YOUR ADVISE WHAT TO DO? PLEASE.
For me simple: I like better the range-finder style VF on the 6400 (my nose doesn't contact the cam) and I also have Sony lenses, so it's a no-brainer. Besides, the auto focus is better.
I'm a Canon shooter, but out of these 2 cameras I'd take the Sony any day. Much better tracking AF, weather-sealed and aside from colour being inferior, Chris said the "raw image quality" is better. The Sony is much better in the higher ISOs, especially considering Fuji overstate their ISOs anyway. The Sony also has a grip. That little bump on the Fuji is an excuse for a grip. Both cameras are great, but Sony FTW from my point of view. A prettier camera is not automatically a better camera.
@@johnbiscuit8272 If you're not planning on moving to full frame, then get the Fuji. I bought an a6000 when I found a good 2 lens deal (16-50 & 55-200?). But Sony seems to ignore the APS-C cameras in favor of their full frame lineup and their lens selection for crop is pitiful. So while their AF may seem better on paper, the lenses you'll get to use it with are quite limited. And I don't care much for how good the raw files are since I don't do a ton of editing. And FWIW I came from Canon too (60D and 5D2). I use my EF mount lenses with Metabones and Sigma adapters and may just move to full frame once the successor of the a7iii comes out.
@@johnbiscuit8272 Don't bother with the A7 II if you shoot low light. The A6300 (and A6400 and A6500) have the same IQ, and superior AF, especially in low light.
@@johnbiscuit8272 Where did you get your details regarding the M50? I bought one for street photography. AF is very fast and accurate and it shoots at 7.4fps continuously. You only get about 10 shots in RAW and 53 shots in jpg with a SanDisk Extreme 90MB/s SD card. If you repeatedly start a burst, let go for a second before the buffer fills and burst again, etc. you can basically get unlimited shots. I have a friend with a 600D and the M50 is light years ahead. The image quality is vastly superior, especially dynamic range and noise, AF is vastly superior, metering is better, especially for portraits where the camera meters directly off the face detection square. It also offers eye detection AF which works well, but you have to be close to the subject and shooting in one shot drive mode. It all depends how much you want to spend. The A6400 is obviously a vastly superior camera, but also costs twice as much. Here's a couple of shots with the 22mm f/2 lens (the cat shots are all similar) : 1drv.ms/f/s!As2bMg5NOx76rJRVtWVqd1ASmy_1xg
@@johnbiscuit8272 What country are you in? If you live in Melbourne Australia I can give you a mint condition 760D (t6s) with a battery grip for free. I don't really want to mail things overseas.
wow really? Why? I have the Sony A6500 and I like it but I've got to admit that it's hard to find good affordable lenses, and colour seems to be better on fuji...
I had purchased the Sony A5100 for my spouse. It is a horrible camera. The body style and controls are the same on all the succeeding cameras. I have the Fuji XT-10. Comparing our pics, while shooting side by side, was like night and day. So, we have 2 Fujifilm XT-10s now.
Which one is better ? I will not answer that but I will tell you which one I bought the a6400 which I mainly use for video, no record limit, tilting screen and no record limit are very important for me.
Hump and Bump got me through some tough nights.
I love your channel! I hope to God that the perfect camera will never be launched as it will kill your channel. ;-)
@Aron J Anderson you mean hump and dump? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
🤣
track 4 tho, the one where they talk about growing up on signal hill. 😪🤛🏻
If you play the track in reverse you can hear the devil's voice pulling for Sony.
If only I could take the features that I like from both cameras and put them all into one... behold, the Soji a-T6430. One can only dream. 😄
Dude 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Your dream has come true, it's called the X-T4 :P
Am still looking at X-T30 though, that or X-E4. Great value for the price.

Both cameras are great. One cannot go wrong with either. Just buy the one you like more and don't look back. It will serve you fine.
I'm curious about the lens selection. Which one has a cheaper price range like fifty nifty?
@@Durio_zibethinus Depends on what you mean.
For 50mm equiv, Fuji has the 35mm f2 and the 35mm f1.4, while Sony has the 35mm f1.8 and the Sigma 30mm f1.4.

I can't believe I am the only one who absolutely hate the fact the this fuji has such a shallow grip. I don't understand how nobody criticize that. These cameras are very different in terms of handling. I have a glued grip to my X-T20. It's impossible to use it without one, for a long time.
Serious point! Walking around with a camera that is difficult to hold - not going to do that.
I have the XT-10 and have used it for 4 years. Never experienced any handling issues.
@@Johnny847 There is a reason Chris is holding the A6400 by it's grip and X-t30 by the lens. I never feel safe holding my X-T20 on it's tinny grip. If it's good for you that's ok. What I don't get is some reviewers criticizing how camera X, has a shallow grip when that specific grip is 3 times bigger than the X-T30 and when they get the X-T30 there is no complain on the grip.
Just buy the half leather grip
Big help! Thank you
Does the x-t30 still have the record limit?
Few years ago, the choice between Sony a6300 and Fuji XT20 was also a difficult one, eventually I decided to take Sony because it's more video oriented and there was huge price drop for black friday. Now it would be even harder to choose between XT30 and a6400. Both are such a great cameras.
Does the Fuji still have the time limit when recording externally? I want to use it for some live streaming.
No time limit when you record externally!
Hey which of these would be best for kids and pet stills
The fact that you used The Dipset for your album riff gets 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿from me!
Who knew y’all was repping with the Dips!
Y’all invited to the cookout I mean barbecue 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Muntu Blackson DIPSET!
Will you review the panasonic s1?
I owned both xt20 and xt30. When i first hold the xt20 2 years ago, i was not please with the ergo and handgrip. It's too light, plasticky, and not stable to hold. But with time, i learned to appreciate its shortcomings. Because xt20 is small in size, it wont receive as much attention. Because xt20 is light, i can shot all day long without hurting my shoulder muscle. Its shortcomings are its strength and that's why i'm buying the new xt30.
Fuji of course
And U forget about 24-bit internal audio recording in Fujifilm X-T30
Have not seen one of those 'Peddle-Pubs' for a while but we certainly used to have them here in London, UK a couple of years ago.
Great review
Great comparison, the xt30's video record limit is a very annoying limit. I think it's mostly due to heat but more testing is require to figure that out.
It is. When Fuji used the A6300 sensor for their 24MP cameras, they still had one of the recording limits in the industry. Processing X-Trans is more intensive than standard Bayer, so it takes more processing and therefore creates more heat, to do the same thing a simple Bayer sensor does.
What about wireless connectivity and apps?
With the x-t30 you can dump all youre pictures to your phone with BT 4.2, start working on them in LR mobile and as soon as youre phone is connected to wifi the pics uploads to the LR cloud and other clouds, so you have a backups and you can continue the post work on youre computer. The app allows live view and remote controll so you can use youre phone as a monitor when in front off the camera.
You didn't mention three important things: 1) LR doesn't handle Fuji files well 2) it is uncomfortable to hold Fuji due to a very small grip, you have to purchase an extra one to improve the handling 3) You can upgrade from a6400 to a full frame and keep some lenses - Sony has one mount. Especially the last one is a big win for Sony. Yes, I like Fuji colors, yes, it looks nice, but in the end that is not what is the most important, at least not for me.
Which is better sony a6400 or nikon d7500?
@@siddharthrana1757 mirror less cameras are future man
@@shubhanshyadav3983 lol I bought sony a6400
which camera are you using in this video ?
Really great job guys, really good
I like the 6400 but I feel if I buy a 6500 I can buy cheaper prime lens that offer better color profile and the 6500 offer IBIS. What is your thoughts?
Love the looks of the Fuji and the lens options. But I tried both in the shop and for my hands the Fuji just feels not comfortable. Like it will fall out of my hand. The grip not working for me. Sony grip feels way more secure and comfortable for me. Nikon Z50 feels good in my hand too. But so far I am leaning towards the a6400.
Great review , thanks. I can get the Fuji T30 for 620 USD from a professional photographer , used. Is it anything to consider ? Thanks in advance.
I tried Fuji XT20 many times in camera stores while I was using a6000 series. I felt the Fuji grip wasn’t good, had flimsy body and operated slow overall compared to Sony a6000. I decided to keep my A6000 and then move on to Sony full frames . Has XT30 fixed theses issues?
Isn't it ironic how the specs of a camera become irrelevant the moment you take it into your hand and the grip feels just not right? I am looking at you m50, I would have taking you as secondary, but this grip is just made for my hands. If I would be 9, my hands properly would fit.
You have to use it with a half leather grip
But I'd love to see Fuji make a Ricoh GR competitor, the film simulation would work so well for that purpose.
They have the x70 already, and the Ricoh's color negative film simulation is uncannily close to portra.
Im stuck Becuase im trying to decide which one is better for travel/street photography as well as car photography
Great video! And classic album, when is 'Hump 2 Bump' gonna drop??
You guys really used “DipSet Anthem” for that b boy beat 🤣🤣🤣 #Harlem
El Mayimbe they are invited to the cookout 🤣🤣🤣😁
good day! Fujifilm service centre asked me 1000$ for repairing my xh1 (changing motherboard and electronic cheap front body behind sensor) with 2 months guarantee only! which is not costly and not acceptable at all, since lack of trust to work as before and lower the price of new one currently. therefore I think its better to save this 1000$ and wait for the next version of XH1, probably XH2. please let me know how long should I wait for it? any approved rumours? I NEED YOUR ADVISE WHAT TO DO? PLEASE.
For me simple: I like better the range-finder style VF on the 6400 (my nose doesn't contact the cam) and I also have Sony lenses, so it's a no-brainer. Besides, the auto focus is better.
I'm a Canon shooter, but out of these 2 cameras I'd take the Sony any day. Much better tracking AF, weather-sealed and aside from colour being inferior, Chris said the "raw image quality" is better. The Sony is much better in the higher ISOs, especially considering Fuji overstate their ISOs anyway. The Sony also has a grip. That little bump on the Fuji is an excuse for a grip.
Both cameras are great, but Sony FTW from my point of view. A prettier camera is not automatically a better camera.
@@johnbiscuit8272 If you're not planning on moving to full frame, then get the Fuji. I bought an a6000 when I found a good 2 lens deal (16-50 & 55-200?). But Sony seems to ignore the APS-C cameras in favor of their full frame lineup and their lens selection for crop is pitiful. So while their AF may seem better on paper, the lenses you'll get to use it with are quite limited. And I don't care much for how good the raw files are since I don't do a ton of editing. And FWIW I came from Canon too (60D and 5D2). I use my EF mount lenses with Metabones and Sigma adapters and may just move to full frame once the successor of the a7iii comes out.
@@johnbiscuit8272 Don't bother with the A7 II if you shoot low light. The A6300 (and A6400 and A6500) have the same IQ, and superior AF, especially in low light.
@@johnbiscuit8272 Where did you get your details regarding the M50? I bought one for street photography. AF is very fast and accurate and it shoots at 7.4fps continuously. You only get about 10 shots in RAW and 53 shots in jpg with a SanDisk Extreme 90MB/s SD card. If you repeatedly start a burst, let go for a second before the buffer fills and burst again, etc. you can basically get unlimited shots.
I have a friend with a 600D and the M50 is light years ahead. The image quality is vastly superior, especially dynamic range and noise, AF is vastly superior, metering is better, especially for portraits where the camera meters directly off the face detection square. It also offers eye detection AF which works well, but you have to be close to the subject and shooting in one shot drive mode.
It all depends how much you want to spend. The A6400 is obviously a vastly superior camera, but also costs twice as much.
Here's a couple of shots with the 22mm f/2 lens (the cat shots are all similar) :

@@johnbiscuit8272 What country are you in? If you live in Melbourne Australia I can give you a mint condition 760D (t6s) with a battery grip for free. I don't really want to mail things overseas.
@@johnbiscuit8272 I hope you have a great time in Oz. 🙂
In Dubai, I found a fuji Xt2 with kit 18-55 exactly at the same price as A6400 with the kit also, hard to chose between these two
Seif Eddine B X-T2 with the 18-55mm for sure.
I Like them both but I need better AF. (SONY FOR ME)
so fuji xt30 with three lenses or fuji xt3 with two lenses?
Looking forward on testing that amazing af system of the sony. How it switches from eye, face love it
would you say that the x-t30 has better 4k than the fuji x-s10
1:23 - why was that album last tough 🤔... it looks lit to me 🔥 🔥 🔥
i sold my A6300 and bought the Fuji XT-3 and i don't regret it at all
wow really? Why? I have the Sony A6500 and I like it but I've got to admit that it's hard to find good affordable lenses, and colour seems to be better on fuji...
I had purchased the Sony A5100 for my spouse. It is a horrible camera. The body style and controls are the same on all the succeeding cameras. I have the Fuji XT-10. Comparing our pics, while shooting side by side, was like night and day. So, we have 2 Fujifilm XT-10s now.
Which one is better ? I will not answer that but I will tell you which one I bought the a6400 which I mainly use for video, no record limit, tilting screen and no record limit are very important for me.
