  • In today's video we're doing a comparision between the Fujfiilm XH2s and Sony A7iv... Both are around the same price range at $2500.. We are going to go over the specs of both cameras and I'm going to show you some sample photos and videos from both machines and share my thoughts and opinion, and hopefully by the end of the video you're not so confused on what to get... Both systems have their strengths and weaknesses so it should be very interesting to check out!

      Right now Sony is the clear winner, new bodies that outclass competitors come and go, but good affordable AF glass at different focal ranges is hard to get on Fuji (and has been for a long time). Having said that Fuji makes incredible cameras for street photography and the video coming from the XH2 is incredible.....if Fuji get's more third party manufacturers to develop XF glass I will definitely give the edge to Fuji.

    Great comparison… the only issue I have is with the low light comparison. The Fujifilm looks to have a higher exposure, which will make noise stand out more. Adjusting the Sony exposure to match the Fuji will reveal more noise.
    I’m actually really impressed with have the Fujifilm retains detail at higher ISO.

      This seems interesting. The Hybrid Shooter's testing showed the X-H2S was darker than Sony by 2/3 stops at same ISO values, hence ISO 2500 on XH2S looked like ISO 1600 on Sony. Yours is kinda like the reverse. Potentially t-stop differences? I'm not sure.

      Same ISO number on each camera can result in different exposures.

      Videos from "The slanted lens" of a model walking towards the camera Fuji misses 5-6 shots out of 36 while sony nails each one. From "Jerred Z" show his son walking around and good number of shots weren't in focus slightly off. AF-S eye detect seem to work works, but AF-C falls apart.

    What I find most interesting here is the highlight roll off. Notice @14:21 the light that is positioned to the right of the subject does not roll off in a natural way in the Sony image. It has a harsh blue border around it. Also notice the spill onto the desk. These nuances are what separates a OK image from a great image. The Fujifilm has a far superior image and much better image processing.
    Talking about noise, the FujiFilm has noise, sure, but none of the ugly confetti color noise that most cameras suffer from. The XH2S noise looks organic… film like. The Sony instead favors noise reduction, which crushes detail. It’s a clear win for the Fujifilm camera.
    Now if only Fujifilm would make a cinema variant, with removable EVF… just use the one from the GFX100 II, it’s excellent. Add a built in fan… built in eVND and internal BRaw… then we are off to the races.

    AS a sony shooter i will say FUJI had it in the video AF test, and the noise at higher iso and how the image was rendering looked very very nice on the Fuji, maybe organic and has life compared to digital etc on the A7IV, I being old school actually prefer a little bit of texture, grit or grain in the image rather than just clean and bland... also the banding using LED on the A7IV, solved on the Fuji, but it also a non-issue on my A9II LOL. I would be happy to use files from the fuji at 12800 iso. Im very tempted to go back to Fuji now the XH2S has come along and the new line of LM fuji lenses. Great review 🙂

      @@JLStreetDoc i hear your pain.. had both the XH2 and XH2s on loan for two weeks, the XH2s is defo faster at acquiring focus than my A9ll and almost more sensitive in low light. stunning camera all be told. if it did not have that stupid flippy screen i would for sure have one, paired with the new line of lenses it was really a pleasure to use. XH2 was great image quality, and the way it rendered the images was 1st class, again the screen was an issue and wasn't keen on the dampened feeling shutter release compared to the 2s but as a combo, they would be fantastic... but the screen for me is a deal breaker, makes things off center for my dim wit brain when using waist level etc and de stabilizes the left of the camera to hold also gives a less discreet visual to the client when want to be invisible, XT5 well I've had xt1,2 and 3 and never liked the dials so don't think that is on the cards although it does have a tilt screen LOL. what i decided to do to shrink my sony gear, removed the grip from the A9ll and sold it, sold all my GM glass bar the 16-35 as need that for a client, purchased the Batis range of lenses now have a smaller setup and lenses with character, i was never a fan of the huge GM glass and its surgical, clinical sharpness. forgive my waffling on...LOL also sold my A7rIV and now to replace either with a A7IV or do i bite the bullet and get the XT5 and a 33mm f1.4.. ermmmm ??

  • @Powerincarnate.
    @Powerincarnate. Рік тому +3

    Clear winner is hard to be given. If gauging by pure features then yes the fuji win except for not being full frame, not having as good low light, and less depth of field capabilities. But things are not that simple. For example, which as more heat, a 1Kg object at temperature of 500 degrees or a 1000 kg object at a temperature of 100 degrees. By temperature alone, one would say the 1 kg object, but there clear answer is the 1000 kg object, though only the 1 kg object could burn use by the process of quick heat transfer upon touching it.
    That analogy is this; while on paper the fujifilm wins; there is something to having such a LARGE Lens lineup. Having access to Sony G, G-master lens, Zeiss lens, Tamron, Sigma, Samyang lens; as well as some smaller obscure ones like viltrox, Meike, Mitakon are invaluable. Even better is Voigtlander; they have some wonderful lenses, including their APO lanthan lens at 35mm, 50mm, 65mm, 110mmi are some of the highest rated lens in the industry. Voigtlander has a few X-mount lens; but no where near the quality or volume that they produce on Sony.
    Then there is also Longevity. As smartphone camera systems and lenses continue to mature; it will continue to eat up more and more of the cheaper linueup of cameras; companies like apple make processors that are far, far more powerful than any processors available on cameras and thus their ability to tap into computational photography is miles ahead and will continue to be miles ahead, especially todays times when AI is blowing up all over the place (including in interchangeable lens cameras like the A7R5). With that said; just like the point and shoot cameras died out; where will the smaller camera companies be in 5-10years (OM system, Fuji, Pentax, Panasonic). Sony and Canon will no doubt survive, but Fuji? I believe so; as I still think it will take longer (if ever) for smart phones to catch up to APSC, and Medium Format will always be a halo product that phones won't match and that niche will still be around (so hassleblad and gFX will have a market). What i'm trying to say is there may be a benefit to go with Sony or Canon due to the size/stability of their company.
    Just my two cents.

    I think that Fuji focus faster and keeps it on. I reckon that focus switching speed at fuji is at the fastest setting and as such it focus the background very fast and when you come back in frame it tries to focus again in contrast with Sony which it focus the background much slower and when you come back on frame it takes less time to focus. I see an advantage of Sony in close distance focus.

    Sorry but Fuji color is awful. Always too much magenta. Too warm. Sony color is pretty bad, sure, but Fuji is not the cure. Yes, some film simulations look cool, it's got a style, but absolutely not accurate and very often ugly. In fact, I would rank Fuji dead last in color, Sony second to last.
    The best color to me is always Panasonic full frame.
    Then next is probably Nikon, a bit too sharp, constrasty and overly saturated, yes, but for anything other than portraits, it produces fairly eye catching results.
    Then Canon is probably best for skin tone. It's got a magenta tint, and not even subtle either, but Canon's magenta is just so much more tastefully done than Fuji, which is like piling on the magenta paint bucket.

      Which Canon, Sony, Fuji, Nikons are you talking about? It is impossible to generalize since, for example, the Canon R line has many models and some of them look great and some have gross tints/white balance whatever out of the box. They hardly get it right across ALL models and ALL price ranges. Same for Sony, same for Nikon. Given that Fuji tends to use the same sensor across model lines, well, I guess you like it or you don’t-but less variation in image quality. In any case it is pretty easy to correct tints and white balances. So maybe pick the features you want/need and move on?

      @matth8816 while each camera may differ a bit and custom white balance may resolve some of the difference, each brand does have a systematic bias in how they interpret sensor data in color. Canon and Fuji generally has more magenta, with Fuji a bit overboard and canon slightly less. Sony is famous for the yellowish green and Nikon a bit yellow. That is the reason some stick to Canon for skin tone and there are die hard Fuji fans.
