In this video let me take you to Vienna, where me and my man Cole from @nordicaphoto were hosting a wedding photography workshop. During this workshop I shot with my Sony A7IV and Cole were testing the newest Fuji X-H2s with two new lenses - 23mm f/1.4 and 90mm f/2.0. Check out our results and let me know if you want to join our next workshop that will be hosted in Stockholm!

Thanks for watching! All of my photos edited with my main preset Magicadabra 🧙♂

I'm seriously considering buying this Fuji XH2, but your magicadabra just makes the sony look too good!
Hahaha brother! You’re gonna be rocking no matter what camera you have! Also - you know it’s all about the lenses 🔥
Fuji is amazing ..easy decision
I have a Sony a7iv and a Fuji x100F and I have always preferred what I got from the Fuji over the Sony in 60% of the time. For these images, I feel the Sony was way too contrasty and not dreamy compared to the Fuji, which looks timeless.
I've wanted to try the A7IV, I do want to see if I like FF over APS-C but the sony images look nice, but the skin tones always look orange or spray tan.
@@garrett1144 I think those are to do with his presets after editing. I’m here deciding which of these 2 cameras to buy as I need a hybrid system, I’m leaning on the Fuji myself!
@@DustAdventuresso did you buy Fuji?
@@trickmaster0096 i ended up buying the sony a7iv
@@DustAdventures why though......(I'm also in the middle of picking one)
Fun stuff! Thanks for the good times in Vienna, brother!
Always! Until next time!
Sir how do I buy your audio shutter noises pack?
It’s for my premium subscribers only. The full sound sfx by magic pack is as cheap as 1 coffee and avocado toast a day 🍾
i think doesn't matter camera you use as long as its your preference and you're comfortable using it.
Wise words 👌🏻
For anyone watching and using the A7IV… if you’re getting reddish skin tones, try changing the AWB base to Ambient or White setting. I have to say I prefer the skin tones from the Fuji in these images. Thank you for doing this.
@K_Anne I’m not certain TBH. I say give it shot.. maybe it gives you a better ‘starting point’ with the Raw file. I felt like it helped.
Magic has no mercy…went straight ahead and brought the 50 1.2 into the mix…the images from that thing are simply breathtaking, the bokeh…
Ive shot Fuji and Sony. I liked the results from fuji (they render sky, water and greens so nice) but LOVE what i can pull from my sony today…granted, the kit is a little bit more expensive…but i can clearly see the difference in my own work
Haha you know I couldn’t resist bringing 50GM - it’s a beauty!
@@MagicWeddingPhotographer for sure. It was an absolute slaughter imo…the 50 1.2 is legendary…
It’s not the gear it’s the photographer 🤷♂️
Get the LAE-5 lens adapter buy some old minolta G lens and you will get magical images remember Minolta was known for colors
I don't get the hate on the "crop censor" especially when the JPG's from it look better (in my oppinion) than edited Fullframe files,
I recently sold all my gear and bought the xh2s, and i'm loving it so far
FF just gives you a look that you can not get with crop...I shoot fujifilm crop but I dont like the crop look as much as FF look
I'm digging the Fuji images.
Fuji images are definitely diggable 😎
I prefer the images from the Fujifilm.
This is fun. I love the teasing you guys gave to each other.
Both cameras are great.
I’m waiting on my pre-ordered X-H2 (not ‘s’).
I’ll also be heading out with a Sony A7iv photographer soon. It will be fun to switch systems for a bit. 😁
@@bbasleigh6149 - That’s why I like so many options. You can get whatever body is suitable for you.
For me, the resolution bump is more useful, so that’s why I got the X-H2.
Saying that, if I get more video work I might grab the X-H2s as well.
I also have the X-T2. It’s a great camera, but hit issues when doing high volume photoshoots in challenging environments and moving subjects.
But, I’ll still grab it when I just want to go for a walk around. It’s wonderfully small with one of the f2 primes.
I ended up moving away from my Canon 5D/r bodies.
Great cameras, but the weight was starting to cause me issues.
Great video! Would be interesting to see the difference between both cameras in a more dynamic environment with harsh lighting conditions at a wedding party.
Are the fujifilm photos straight out of camera?
Excellent photos by you and Cole and a very balanced review from a Sony user. Pre-visualization is the key, You and Cole could swap cameras and still come up with great results.
I'm jealous, my ancestors were from Salzburg and we a dreaming of visiting Austria. Your lovely photos in Viena makes me want to make this a top travel priority.
This is one of the more entertaining looks at the X-H2s that I've seen. Thanks for sharing!
Wait so none of the Fuji pics were edited? All SOOC? Now thaaaaaats what I’m talking about 😍😍👏🏽
Ah the Sony pics were also unedited? Not bad! I prefer the softer less contrast look from the Fuji files, but one may say I’m biased since I am a Fuji shooter 😜
The Fuji photos throughout whole video are jpgs with slight exposure and contrast correction in LR. Sony files for most part of the video are edited with my presets, but in the last section of the video I show not edited version of some images too (you can see note in the bottom right corner)
@@MagicWeddingPhotographer hold up…Fuji SOOC? 😎 …A7IV shooter here. Left Fuji due to lacking eye AF. Eye AF in the A7IV is like witchcraft it’s so good. …but I do have an X-H2S on the way to test & compare.
@@TracyClark what did you end up thinking?
@@joshuabachand1283 I went back to the X-H2S.. with X-Pro2 for backup/grab & go.
Great video! Nice beautiful shots on both cameras, I agree I am a bit like you, bumper about Sony, I don’t like Full Frame image I prefer medium format.
Tossing up these 2 cameras, looking to transition from my Nikon Z30. I'm leaning towards Sony for the resolutuon, full frame BSI sensor and superior autofocus.
Fuji is an art
Dude, this was such a great video with beautiful images. But the highlight for me was your transition sound effects mimicking the A1 shutter at 5:05 hahaha
Haha I was waiting for someone to pick it up! 🙈
Thanks for the great video but why don't you like APSC images. What's the difference between 2 ? I hear most of the time but people never explain why ?
why shoot the fuji in JPG.....and then i assume you are shooting RAW with the Sony right?
Pretty cool to see the city I’m living in (Rochester NY) being talked about so enthusiastically haha Especially regarding Kodak because nobody here really talk about it.
That was such a fun encounter! We’ve talked with him for about 10 minutes! Great guys and what a piece of history!
Well played!
Well 🎥 filmed!
That new sony shutter sound is dope
😂
I am a Fuji fan boy and ordered the X-H2S but I think I liked the Sony pictures better :)
Me too (and I took the Fuji ones 😂). Looking forward to digging into the RAW files from this set and seeing what the X-H2s look like after some playing!
You'll be beyond happy with your X-H2s - it's a monster camera. Take into account that in the video my photos were edited - that made them pop more. Also Cole likes natural, way more toned vibe of the images, and that's a personal preference. And also - I had 50/1.2 on Sony haha, there's no direct equivalent for that lens in Fuji land :)
Definitely the Sony pictures looks much brighter Fuji pictures are always little darker.
I just sold my X-T4 and replaced it with the A7iv - I wish I had done it sooner...if you shoot RAW, and also need reliable AF, you can't lose with the Sony for the SAME price as the X-H2s.
Well, I considered it.
For me, video is a priority, as it's rolling shutter (which is bad on the A7iv) . I hope ibis and af will be good enough.
If you could sell your old stuff for a reasonable price, I am sure the A7iv is amazing. Especially compared to the cheaper X-T4 and for photos.
fujifilm all the way
Awesome
Thanks!
I know that Sony is still ahead in the AF department, but the colors, boy! I and a Sony (a7rII) and sold it for the colors I had to fight with all the time. IN this video skin tones and general color harmony is much better with the Fuji.
Which one wins eye AF/tracking?
I wish you would have shot all day with the Fuji to really get a feel for it vs your Sony. I love my A7iv! Also have a7lll, a7c and A6600. Sometimes I feel like selling it all and getting the HS2 and XT-5. With a couple of fast primes
I think if you used the Fuji 50mm f1.0 maybe would have been a slightly different opinion about not liking APSc image. Who knows
Do they have 24/1.0 or 35/1.0? That would be something! 50 in aps-c might be too long for me (I’m a 35+50 combo shooter)
Not liking APSC, but not knowing anything about it and not knowing anything about the XH2s, that's not a great combination. It's not a A7 IV-version, it's a superior camera.
The XH2s is superior in any point, as far as the specs are concerned. The A7 IV isn't capable of shooting 15fps with MS and not 40 fps with ES. No stacked sensor. I was completely disappointed about the A7 IV.
In a blind test, you won't see a difference between FF and APSC.
Me not liking APS-C comes from my experience with it. I’ve shot with X-pro2 for full wedding season and just didn’t like the output I was getting from wide angle lenses like 23/1.4 - i couldn’t get image I knew from FF with lenses like 24/1.4, 35/1.4 or 50/1.2 (back in the day when I shot canon). Apart from that I have huge respect for fujifilm cameras, they’re just not for me.
The video specs on the Fuji are definitely far ahead of the A7IV’s and also the 40fps in still. You are paying for this the price of a very capable full frame camera. I think it all comes down to the features you require for your kind of shooting. If you have no use for those, then the choice is not that obvious in favour of the Fuji. That’s my current dilemna: currently owner of an XT2, i was eagerly waiting for the XHS2 and wasn’t expecting this price point (nor these features to be honest). On one hand I could spend £2,500 on the Fuji and keep my (great) lenses. On the other hand, I could sell all my Fuji gear for £2,000 and switch to the a7IV (or Z6III sometime later this year, hopefully not so distant future) and buy a couple of nice Tamron lenses. The price difference between the 2 scenarii would not be that different. All that being said, before the XT2, I was shooting FF with the Nikon D610 and my best pictures were definitely shot with the Fuji. In the end, the more rational choice would still be to go with Fuji TBH but am still undecided. :-)
Cześć! Powiedz jaka rekomendujesz szybkość AF do fotografii ślubnej ? Oraz Picture Profile masz jakoś ustawione czy zwyczajnie standard bez żadnych modyfikacji ? Bo zauważyłem ze zdjęcie różni się na podglądzie od tego w LR na korzyść LR , zwłaszcza pracując na Body A7iv + A7iii
PP off i Hi+ jeśli chodzi o klatki na sekundę :)
@@MagicWeddingPhotographer A af speed standard 3 ? Bo natknąłem w necie na polecena opcje 4
Magic, I do prefer your close shots with 35 in your works. On the other hand, though I suppose your 50 can produce addiction, I found that in your shootings It really works for verticals only (basically the same working distance that you use for horizontal shots with a 35). I would try to challenge myself giving 85 a try and see what happens.
hello, I want to build a new set and I have been following your videos for a long time. That's why I need your opinion)) I usually take photos, but the photos I take are printed on 2x1 banners, albeit a little. But I also shoot video. I'm torn between sony a7iv and fujiiflm xh2. Do you think it would be enough for someone like Fuji Beniö? Or what would you recommend?
Oh.. the lovely Vienna.. will tell my wife to watch with me, she’s not a photographer but she’s Austrian🙂👍🏼. Saludos desde NY!
Ah! Definitely a great video to watch together! I’m coming to NYC later this year 🕺🏻💃🏼
@@MagicWeddingPhotographer Really? Some photo walk, maybe? Let us know 👍🏼
Great video! Can you please share your Eterna image settings aka recipe? It looks great!
Thanks! I believe it was default settings!
Early wow
First one haha!
For photography get the Sony. or video get the fuji.
If you want that full frame special sauce look, you should’ve brought along the XF 50mm f1. Great video nonetheless!
Oooh I’m putting it on my to-try list!
Amazing and interesting at the same time!
Thanks!
You were in Vienna? Oh boy. You hold courses in vienna? Will you come back?
I was! Next time - I’m October for wedding photography conference Way Up North - www.wayupnorth.co
@@MagicWeddingPhotographer very cool. Will there also be a workshop there with you?
Fuji has a better color than Sony. I’m a Sony user and been thinking about getting x-h2 then Sony A7Rv
Fuji pictures have more character.
Good stuff, but I ain't getting a Mac lol
So many custom profiles you need a cheat sheet to remember them
Ye. I would’ve preferred a photo/video switch with 3 custom modes each. A lot less cumbersome.
The new xh2 over both of these
Very beautiful photos! But…
But what’s the point of doing this video when at the end you just express a distaste for APS-C sensors by saying you don’t like them anyways! No objective conclusions to be drawn from the comparison since you don’t like one sensor over the other to start with.
Despite this, I like the photos you presented here. Beautiful.
Show of hands from those who consider themselves superior by having a 'full frame' sensor.
Fuji was much better.
I've had the X-HS2 for a week in the UK moving from Canon 5DMkIII, the video from it is lovely but the stills are poor. My main lesson from the last week is actually how remarkable my 10 yr old Canons are, 10 yrs old but still produce much nicer Raw files than Fuji's new flagship camera. The X-HS2 might be ok for travel or weddings or kid photography but it doesn't have enough image quality for my commercial work for clients here in London. It's a great shame as I am desperate for a camera that can do both good 4k video and quality stills. I will keep it for my projects but I will be taking my Canons on my commercial commissions this week.
My Canon 5D Mki is still good
Can I ask which lenses you are using? The older XF lenses are pretty dated and perform well below par when it comes to sharpness and aberrations.
The newer lm f1.4 primes are much better in both regards.
fujji is bad for wedding
The Sony camera looks more genuine than the Fuji, Fuji is definitely copying Sony.,
Interesting point
Camera brands do copy each other, Sony also copied Pentax's focus shifting.
However, Sony has recently started adding marked aperture rings to their lenses which is a nod to Fuji.
Also - keep in mind that Sony is basically legacy of Minolta!
@@RandumbTech So are fuji the only camera company doing that?
