      Fuji has some great things - but where they fail is in my mind - the 16-55mm F2.8 lens with NO IS - what are they thinking -
      also the aperture rings on the faster primes is way way way to loose and easy to change accidentally -
      I also would like to see Playback button on right hand side - but one can re-map it to say AEL -
      Also the Bokeh from the 40-150mm F2.8 is sub par - not nice enough for weddings -
      and now seems Fuji is abandoning faster primes - only making F2.0 primes :( they need to re-work the faster once to be WR and faster focusing and more quiet -

      Yes, I agree. And in 2019 on the roadmap for release, the 16-80!

    This video literally changed my life haha! We love shooting on our Fuji cameras, and this was by far the most in depth and easy to understand tutorial I've found. Thanks a bunch!

    I bought my X-T2 last week and this tutorial has been a tremendous help! Great video that covers the most important aspects of this camera and it sure beats reading a +300 pages PDF... :D

    I don't think anyone should ever be unhappy with your Reviews they are thorough and straight to the point , nice . I have been watching You for a few years now and You are quite good , take care .

  • @Sam-ch9mn
    @Sam-ch9mn 5 років тому +2

    Tony, you are the master tutor in this format. I have the XT-1 and watching this video I have learned (and practiced along with you) the majority of the functions and techniques where the two cameras are similar.
    I now want to use many more functions that I never fully understood before to improve my photography, inc bracketing, auto ISO, etc.
    Thank you for the time and effort you put into these projects. They are so helpful to us aspiring amateurs. Your presentation style is brilliant, non-patronising and expertly paced.

  • @richardbirdsall4061
    @richardbirdsall4061 Рік тому

    Just watched this again as I re-orient myself to the X-T2. Tony's video is focused on what you need to do to get up and running with this camera and how to take advantage of its strongest features. Clear and concise.

    WAIT!!!! WAIT!!! Did I just see the absolute best training video on this camera on youtube?? Yes, If you are considering buying this system as I am, take the time to watch every second of this video.
    Tony has produced a totally professional video here. I will now make this channel one of my all time favorites! Clearly explained in every aspect of this system. I am a commercial shooter by trade but have been asked to travel out of the US to shoot a few weddings,so, Im considering buying this system to save space. This video convinced me to buy what I need. I WILL BUY VIA THEIR SITE TO HELP THEM OUT! Also, we never stop learning... Ive been shooting for 46 years professionally... Did I just say 46? damn Im old.. and I still try to learn something every day. Im also going to consider their books. Thanks Tony. Haven't seen Chelsea yet but I suspect she will make an appearance in other videos. Great Video! absolutely great! New subscriber and I RANG THE BELL!

    Having used nikon for 4 decades i decided to shift to fuji xt2 completely as weight has become a number one issue, I was confused with all the technology but this video tutorial just made it extremely easy to navigate and enjoy the XT 2 to its fullest!!! Thank you for this and more power to you!!!

  • @keithtruman7422

    Liked even before I watched! Just got myself one, for $600 and I LOVE your channel. I will be buying the Photography and Lightroom tutorial for sure. Tony I like your approach, and this video is already saved to my favorites!

  • @dunnadidit
    @dunnadidit 6 років тому +5

    Its actually cool to watch along with this video and see all the little things fuji has updated on this camera with firmware. Not many other camera companies service their older cameras that way. F-Log internal is great to have!

    @yanevasantana4810 7 років тому

    Thanks a lot for this free tutorial!! I just got my Fuji a week ago and seeing this video has saved me a lot of time researching how to do specific things, you have covered pretty much everything. I'm still in shock with the fact that you can take pictures in completely silence with the electronic shutter option. I'll keep an eye on your profiles from now on. Thank you!

  • @VladHTX
    @VladHTX 8 років тому +19

    Quick tip change the bracketing button on the front to playback and you can fully operate the camera with one hand and chimp with while looking through the viewfinder. It's a huge quality of life improvement 🙂

  • @rgwightman
    @rgwightman 8 років тому +12

    Wow man!!! Great content! Have had the Xt2 for a month, love it. Your video helped reinforce some things I knew and I certainly gained a lot of new useful information. When I first saw the video was 1.5 hours, didn't think there was any chance I'd watch the entire time- but did. Very nice, thanks and did pick up a couple of your books. I'll be back for more. Also, I'm addicted to the Fujifilm system.

  • @samsen3965
    @samsen3965 2 роки тому +1

    There is more than one reason why this channel is so popular among photographers and photo lovers. One of them is what is happening in this series of videos. Did I mention, For Free?

  • @ShelteringJade
    @ShelteringJade 2 роки тому

    Fantastic help, thank you. I bought this camera some years ago, couldn’t figure out how to use it properly and ignored it - relying on my other cameras. This has helped me and I will now take the camera with me on an upcoming trip.

  • @albourindiaye502
    @albourindiaye502 6 років тому

    I subscribed simply based on how organized your youtube page is. You have a freaking Table of Contents! And from the little I've watched thus far, you are very clear with your tutorial and are looking out for all levels of photographer/filmmakers.. I'm mostly impressed because i've seen enough other video reviews to know this one is good. Ok i'll stop before i sound too much like the big fan of this review that i'm turning into.

    Super helpful way to get me started with my new XT-2 I do much better with quickly learning via video than reading through the manual (which I will still go through). Thank you!

    @michaelmurphy6434 5 років тому

    Thank you again Tony. Out of everyone on you tube, I trust and appreciate your through covering of our cameras out here. I left Canon for Fuji again. It helps that you have gone thru the X-2, and the jump too list under more, is great to keep revisiting. I want to get the most out of my camera the Q and My Menu are a nice addition. I had many of my Q and MyList jump too links the same, I corrected that. Thank you and Chelsea for all you do for us out here.

  • @mycorrhizae111
    @mycorrhizae111 5 років тому

    Just upgraded to X-T2 and this video is still relevant and extremely helpful (2019). Very clear and precise. One and a half hour tutorial for free is amazing. X-T2 is an awesome camera but remember to upgrade the firmware.

    Thank you for an outstanding video with very clear instructions. I know that they are about to come out with the XT-4 but I think the XT-2 does enough for me and your video helped me make that decision. Thanks again for a no-nonsense video

  •  7 років тому +1

    This is super useful for a switcher. I shot the 5D classic for almost a decade and while I know how to take photos, my old dinosaur camera didn't have even 1% of all these new features and settings on the X-T2.

    Fantastic that you guys put this much time into a free tutorial Tony. I'm still waiting on my XT2 to arrive, its great to get all this education on the camera explained so well while I'm waiting. Surfing the Amazon site now to skim your books so I can thank you with a purchase.

  • @felix6221
    @felix6221 8 років тому +1

    Your channel and videos have been a wondrous discovery to me. I am a COMPLETE noob to digital photography..after weeks of endless research reading articles and watching videos on different cameras which only served to confuse me further, I finally made the decision to take the plunge and purchase the xt2 as my first SLR type camera (no half measures for me when buying things lol!) I didn't want to start with a more mediocre option and find myself wanting more out of my camera after some time. I've just been watching your videos for the last couple of hours and now stumbled upon this one! Your videos are extremely clear and informative on the many different aspects of photography and have helped me make a start in understanding this wondrously complex art. A massive thank you from a fledgling amateur taking his first steps into the world of digital photography :)

    Thank you so much for the fabulous tutorial, well presented and easy to follow. I listened to some parts of it twice and now feel confident to start using my new digital​ camera and finding all the different settings. I love the film simulations component of the Fujifilm camera and the fact that there are some "real" dials which look like the ones on my very old Nikon film camera! Will be ready your "Stunning Photography" next!

    @xutip 8 років тому

    Got the camera, came home and got the youtube push message which alerted me to your video, so learned it with your tutorial, perfect timing thnx for that.
    I noted that in the part aperture priority there is a cut where the just assigned auto shutter dial changes to the T setting. That confused me. I couldn't get it to work and later realised i had to set it to auto and change the lens setting to manual.
    Again thnx for the perfectly timed video!

    Thank you Tony for these videos! I encourage photographers watch these as you can pick up tips even you might think you know how to operate cameras. Coming from film cameras, I pretty much always shot a frame at a time. While watching one of Tony's Canon tutorials, picked up the technique of shooting in continuous and burst mode. This changed my life, I'm getting so many more keepers now without people's eyes closed.

  • @crossedreality
    @crossedreality 8 років тому +1

    Quick comment: the back dial defaults to shutter speed and the front dial to aperture (or exposure compensation, or both). At 9:50 you have these reversed. The back dial is also how you do fractional stops of shutter speed, so it might be worth a note.

    • @sclogse1
      @sclogse1 3 роки тому

      Thanks. T-2 arrived yesterday. Probably a lot less than what everybody paid 4 years ago. Considering using electronic shutter and keeping one lens on it to lengthen it's time on earth. And no bursts.

  • @marshmelow
    @marshmelow 8 років тому

    When you talk about about F-Stop, you mention high f stop (pointing to the blurred background 1.8f stop) then point to hight F-Stop pf F-22 and again mention high f stop and how the background is in focus.
    Best,
