The X-Pro3 needed some attention after my R6 video...😂What are some reasons you love YOUR camera?
@Beth Hope Create I totally agree!
It is the closest I have been able to get back to my days of shooting film.
You missed No. 11, the guaranteed UA-cam views! I see an X-Pro3 video, I click. It’s as simple as that. And I already own one, lol.
Haha true!! I do the same 🙂 thanks for watching!
The Xpro 3 got me into the Fuji system. I love that camera. The look, feel and design is beautiful.
Yess! I totally get this. It was the X-Pro2 that got me a few years ago, so I know what you mean. Thanks so much for watching & for the comment! 😊
You probably won’t see this because it is an older video, but for what it is worth - you inspired me to go pick one up. I have been actively shooting with Fuji X-T3/4 the past three years; new to the hobby. What I have discovered, particularly after picking up a used X-E2S, is that I enjoy the smaller, range-finder style camera and so I finally broke down and made the switch today. Traded in the E2S and a lens I never touch and picked up a black one. I am in love with it already and I think your 10 reasons are all valid. Some I had with the X-T cameras but the bottom line is I just love the way this camera looks and feels and so reason #10 is why I got it. I realized when I watched this today that I had seen it before and so in the end, I am blaming you for convincing me to spend the money. Just in case you get a call from my wife 😏
Haha John!! Thank you so much for watching - glad you are enjoying the X-Pro! I truly love that camera.
One really important feature of the Hybrid viewfinder that you didn't mention, and a lot of people don't know is that you can use the small preview window to show you the EVF preview of the entire frame.
I never switch from this. I compose the shot, look down to see how it will appear when shot, and take the picture - you don't even need to check the final photo in camera, because you saw it before you clicked. Awesome, awesome, amazing.
Yeah, this is true! I never loved using that option, but it is nice to have it if you enjoy it! I can see how it would be useful. Thanks for watching!
When I read forums and blogs about all the reasons why the XPro3 viewfinder is a step back from the XPro2, the frame lines being inadequate etc, the rear screen setup etc...I wonder whether those people actually enjoy taking photos and if they ever just go out and relax doing so. This thing is a joy to use and truly does let you focus more on taking pictures that fiddling with dials and settings.
Thanks, Bob! I totally agree! Why complain about the most minor things- go spend time shooting and enjoy the camera for what it was made for! Thanks so much for watching and for the comment! 🙂
That is why I still shoot with my X-Pro1. Something about its simplicity of use. Old school magic 📷✨
It's coming home in a couple of days my X-Pro3, I'm so happy! It's always a pleasure to watch your videos, thank you ❤
I’m always pumped to see a new video from you! Can’t wait to watch you on your way to 100k subs, it’ll happen quickly! Super informative Fuji stuff👍🏽
Thanks so much, Evan! I really appreciate this. I'm glad you are finding the Fujifilm content valuable! Thanks again! 😊
Just a quick comment about the shooting experience in the studio: You can turn off exposure/wb preview, and that would make the EVF sort of function like an OVF, but with the film simulation and depth of field preview still applied. It’s quite handy!
Totally! I don't use this a lot but I should try it more! Thanks so much for watching :)
100%. I short my XT3 in studio and that’s exactly what I do. Works great.
No fancy setup, clean, simple and straight to the point....awesome bravo!!
Thank you for watching! Much appreciated :)
I'm not a Fuji Guy, but I shoot an Olympus PEN Ep5 for the same reasons. Achingly beautiful, and it just makes you want to take it with you.
Yes!! It is such an underrated feature of a camera. I love just having it with me all the time. Thanks for watching & for the comment!! 😊
To avoid the black EVF when using strobes turn "Preview Exp/WB in manual mode" to OFF. Also, nice videos, keep them coming :-)
Thank you! Yes, I know you can do this, but I actually just love using the OVF. Thanks so much for watching and for the comment!! 😊
@@TheZachMendez OVF has a great romance/being in the moment/situational awareness component to it... But the EVF is so good with the exact framing and exposure information. I find myself switching back and forth a lot...
@@PiotrSwigon Good point! I will try this out more. Thanks, Piotr!
Zach I have been so on the fence about picking up one of these beautiful instruments of creativity. And after watching a boat load of videos relating to this camera I finally arrived at yours. Decision made! I am heading from here to hit the purchase button on the X-Pro3 and a 23mm lens! Thank you for your help. Wonderful video!
Great video and I agree with all of your points. The only thing I would add is that for those of who street-shoot the lcd screen is actually perfect for waist level shooting. I sometimes go out with my old Rollei and the Fuji and the ability to perfectly shoot waist level with both cameras is a huge plus.
True! Great point. Thank you so much for watching! :)
Great video! I would love to see what's your minimalist "grab and go setup" with the X-Pro 3! :)
Oooo this is a great idea! Will add it to my list of videos to make haha thanks so much for the suggestion! And thanks for watching 🙂
Another thing that Palle Schultz pointed out about the xpro 3 (for left eye shooters) is that your nose isn’t constantly pressing up against the rear display leaving it a cloudy mess, because it’s closed!
LOL this is so real though haha! Thank you for watching! :)
it was almost an ASMR video. nice POV, I just switched from my X100F to the X-E4 and already miss its OVF :( wish it had both. btw, aesthetics is number one when it comes to cameras, good design doesn't mean just being good-looking
Totally agree! Thank you for watching! :)
I subscribed because I like the way you talk. It calms me down. I'm looking for an X Pro 3 right now, but it is not available everywhere. Fuji cameras are getting so popular, that it's nearly impossible to put your hands on some models.
Ah thank you for the sub! :)
Really sweet vid, thank you. I had the X-Pro1 and loved it, ended up switching to Sony, but kept many Fuji lenses and the X-T3, X-E4 on its way, Fuji makes cameras that makes you want to create photos, and thats awesome. I read the comments above and I truly don’t understand the negative and rude ones, what’s wrong with some folks? I really enjoyed your video, I have watched my share of YT on Fuji cams, and I think your video is really well done informative and sweet, keep up the great work. Thank you
Aw thanks so much Labib, this made my day! I really appreciate you taking the time to watch & comment. I'm so glad you are enjoying the videos. Also, have fun with the X-E4! Looks like a sweet camera. Thanks again! :)
Been looking at one of these for a while… great video! Thanks!
Thanks so much for watching :) I appreciate it!
Really love this camera. I have been shooting with it and a 16mm/f2.8 lens. Since I am not walking the streets the way I used to, I have decided to use it while hiking. This camera is just a joy to use. I have the X100V and cant imagine life without it. However, the XPro3 is so convenient if I want to carry a second lens. I too have the exact lenses you have plus the 16mm/2.8. Regards....Wayne
Thanks for watching, Wayne! I enjoyed reading about your setup. Glad to hear I am not alone in my appreciation of the XPro3 haha... I also love the X100V, though I don't own one right now. Hope you are staying well - cheers!
Xpro 3 and manual lenses are fantastic shots. I rediscovered my art in creating with Voigtlander,TT artisan lenses. Focus peaking is marvelous on this camera and makes nailing the shots easy. Iuse this more than my Leica Q2.
Ah awesome! Thanks for watching!
Don´t miss out the 16mm 2.8.
Totally love that lens.
Yes!!! I know, I really want to try that one too. I was torn between it and the 1.4, and figured I would save for the 1.4 but now I don’t know because I’m really stuck on these smaller lenses for my Fujifilm camera. But anyway, the I can’t wait to try it out and hope I can add it to my kit eventually. Thanks so much for watching & for the comment 🙂
@@TheZachMendez Well, the 2.8 is not the one with the top ace performance, but it just works more than fine for me and i never noticed any optical problems in my images.
So there really needs to be a clear purpose to have the more expensive, bigger, heavier one.
I chose the 35mm 1.4 over the 35mm 2, though. Because there is a tiny bid of optical imperfection in the 1.4 that made me fall in love with Fuji to begin with. So i just sold the 35mm 2.
Awesome share Zach! I love the idea of this camera but trying not to get into another camera system 😆
Haha yes, good for you! I feel that way about other camera reviews I watch on UA-cam- "I don't need this...I don't need this" LOL. Thanks so much for watching & for the comment 😊
@@TheZachMendez We need them, just not our wallets 🤣
@@TheZachMendez If I only bought what I need I’d only have one camera and maybe two lenses. I have the imagination of how this camera would be better than another. I have the desire to have the flexibility to make my life easier. Most importantly, I have the $$$ to have dual systems and multiple lenses. I’m not a professional. I use Panasonic & Fuji for my street work. I don’t use my Fuji for video much, thus the Panasonic. I value mirrorless. I value lite weight. Just purchased a used Xpro3 from B&H. Just purchased the 23 &:35 crons. Had the 1.4s. One set of lenses have to go. More will be revealed.
Mask on Nurse Marty
Really enjoy your videos. One question. Why are you using the 23 f2 if you also have the X100v? Would love to see also a second video about your long term opinion about the X100v. Have a nice one and keep the videos coming :)
Hi, Daniel! I actually don't own the X100V anymore 😭I ended up returning it because I couldn't justify having it AND the X-Pro3. I LOVE that camera so much though, and I will probably buy it again when the price drops. If I had it, I probably wouldn't use the 23 F/2, you're right. Thanks so much for watching & for the comment 😊
I have the XPro3 and the X100V. I have had 3 iterations of the X Series and cant imagine shooting without it. My X Series cameras have been with me for well over a year of traveling in Europe. Before 2020, I took my XPro2 before I upgraded. It came out of my room where ever I was maybe 10% of the time. However, what I like about the XPro3 or 2 is that I am able to change my mind about the focal length. Recently, not being able to spend time in the cities I love, I am carrying the XPro3 with 16mm/f2.8 and a 50mm/f2 lenses. The form factor, small body and light weight are great combinations to make it possible to utilize a different focal length. I am pretty sure if the XPro Series did not exist, my sense is I would not own a camera other than the X 100 Series. So, I saw Zach does not own both anymore. However, I also get the reason for having both. Regards.....Wayne
#10 resonates with me. I like the monochrome film simulation with r filter.
Yeah so good! Thanks for watching!
another one, already, damn that was quick...lol. currently own fuji xt2 with 15-55 f 2.8 lens, upgraded to the r6 and am currently boxing for resell...Great camera, awesome camera, camera extraordinaire...you get the idea.
Haha after the R6 video I felt like the X-Pro3 needed some love! Lol. I’m super happy with the R6 as my main camera and my XPro for personal work or as a second pro cam for more creative shots. Congrats on the upgrade to the R6- it’s so good! Thank you for watching and for the comment 🙂
#10!!!!
Great vid, just got an x-pro 3
Awesome! I hope you love it :)
Great video probably the best or one of the best I have seen on the xpro3 and I've seen them all lol earned a sub for sure
Ah man thanks so much for the support! Means the world. So glad you enjoyed the video!
Hi Zach, great channel. I still use the X-Pro1 with the 18/2 and 35/1.4 and was thinking of getting the ‚fujicrons‘. They do transform the X-Pro1 in a different camera, speed wise. Still hesitate as I like the two lenses I own, also WR is not something I need as the XP1 is not, and also wan‘t to keep things as minimal as possible. I just shoot for myself, so no need to get crazy gear wise 🤪. Maybe once I upgrade to the XP3 (love the hidden screen) it makes sense to go ‚fujicrons‘. What is your opinion? Have you tried the 1.4 versions....
Cheers from Switzerland
Hi, Michel! Thanks for watching! I'm so glad you found the channel. It's hard for me to know since I don't know much about your style of shooting. I haven't used the 1.4 versions, but my sense is that they are really stellar lenses & if you are happy with them, I don't know if the F/2 versions would add anything for you. Maybe when you get a weather sealed body, that could be a plus? I have the F/2 because they are less expensive and smaller and I have faster aperture lenses on my Canon system. I hope this helps 😊
@@TheZachMendez thx for that quick reply, very much appreciated. Yeah I think it would make sense with a WR body. The 35/1.4 and 18/2 are small enough and the image quality is great with the older 1st trans sensor. I like the shape of the fujicrons. I just shoot personal stuff, for my own enjoyment. I do a bit of night shooting (well evenings but here it gets dark at 5pm these days) as I have small kids and that is the time window I have at the moment 🥴. So the original XPro lenses make sense. I also don‘t need speed. I like to take my time. I recently bought the 7Artisans 35/1.2 used for nothing, just to try and have a manual lens if I feel like. Wow very cool to shoot with it, smooth to operate and a character on its own....
If I upgrade the body I think the 23/35/50 crons are ideal for a personal set up. Small light bring everywhere. So far the XP1 works just fine, very simple menu and a joy to use.
Cheers
Ps: wouldn‘t you love a fuji XP camera w/o back screen at all? Just the necesarry, beauty in simplicity .....
I am still living and loving my XE-3, waiting to put the pennies together for the X-Pro 3.
As someone that is on the go and needs something more robust with the film simulations - I have to say I just want that X-Pro 3 - bad.
Your video is just more proof as to why I wish to own one - sooner, rather than later.|
Thanks.
My go-to lens is the fuji 50mm and 23mm - they are weather-sealed and are the two focal lengths I enjoy shooting the most.
My rule of thumb, if it doesn't fit in my pocket - I do not take it. I hate carrying a camera bag.
So I usually have one lens in my pocket and one on the camera.
I have the 16mm 1.4 - but it is a monster - great photos - but I do not use it that much. Sad.
Perhaps I should sell it for the 16mm 2.8 WR - which is smaller and I would probably take it with me.
Finding the right telephoto in WR and also the size is important (needs to be pocket-size).
I think (for now) the 23mm WR and 50mm WR are both perfect focal lengths, fstops, WR, and small (pocket size).
Just need the X-Pro 3.
Thanks again for the video - makes me happy to see others happy with their camera.
Inspiring me to pull the trigger - just a big nut to pay for me.
Thanks so much for the wonderful comment! And thank you for watching - I'm glad you found the video. I completely get what you are saying about the F/2 primes & the pocketable size of them. This is such a huge plus! You will love the X-Pro3! It is a bit pricey, that is for sure - but I a so happy to have mine I think it is worth it. Thanks again :)
@@TheZachMendez I blame you - just arrived today. Shot over 100+ photos and made a quick video about why I love it. Thought I would share it with you. Thanks for giving me the push. ua-cam.com/video/JmDbj0pMuWg/v-deo.html
Wonderful! I've been thinking about buying this camera, and I think you'l sold me on it!
Amazing! You will love it! haha hope your testing went well today :) Thank you for watching!!
@@TheZachMendez It was marvelous - the camera is so incredibly powerful and capable of sooooo much. I decided its a great fit for me! Also buying the XF 18-55mm lense. But when I went to pay, they were out of stock lol - so I'll wait until they call me. Sales associate was incredibly helpful - he kept phrasing questions like " have you learned about this feature yet?" which for a newbie like me, felt really respectful and kind. Instead of shaming me for not knowing what I don't know yet, he kept saying things like, "you'll learn, it's no problem!" - so yea, great experience all around, and worth waiting to purchase from him because of the well-deserved commission he'll get.
Been on the fence with X100V, Xpro3 or something like a Nikon Z. Funny that I start watching this video and see CMU degree on your wall! So hello from here in Pittsburgh!!
Ha! Omg hi Pittsburgh! Love the X100V and XPro3. Haven't used the Nikon system. Probably can't go wrong. Thanks for watching! :)
I think you need to switch off natural live view off when using flash.
Yeah you’re right. I know you can do this, but I was just trying to make a point that I enjoy using the OVF in the studio 😊
Thank you very much for your video on that camera.
I have a question and i’ll try to be clear in English because i’m french 😒:
I know that you can customize the optical viewfinder to « review » quickly the pic you just took. And that can appear from the little corner in the viewfinder or by a quick view on the evf.
Is this possible with the electric viewfinder ? I mean : can you review the picture you just took for a half or a quarter of second ?
Hi there! Thanks for watching. I believe the answer to your question is yes, but I don't have the X-Pro3 anymore so I can't try it out. Sorry I can't be more helpful! Thanks for watching!
Figured it'd be a longshot, but have you had experience shooting the xpro3 with longer focal lengths? Recently picked the xpro3 up and havent really shot without ibis. Would love to get your thoughts.
I don't use the xpro3 anymore, but I did use it with the XF 90 mm and it was great for me at the time.
How is this camera in the studio? BTW I shoot my xt3 and x100 in the studio, you just have to switch the settings in the menus a bit to use the lcd.
I've enjoyed using Fujifilm cameras in studio. I love how the film emulations work with studio lighting. Thanks for watching!
I've been to Santa Barbara 5 years ago.
SB is very beautiful city.
That travel made me having interesting camera.
I have X-Pro3 now.
from Japan.
Thank you so much for watching!! :)
how do i determine what the photos should look like in the camera? Sometimes when i try to take photos with my xt20 i look at the screen/EVF and it looks great. Then I take the photo and the photo is super-dark. I wish they looked the same: the image in the viewfinder/screen and the actual photo when i take one....
Being an old-timer who started with film, I honestly don't get why one would go for this viewfinder instead of using the LCD screen. As much as I love Fujifilm cameras, their OVF are really bad compared to old film cameras. They're blurry and have a tint, whereas the old ones where crystal clear and got you perfect manual focus, so it's not like this is recreating the film camera experience. The #1 thing I Iove about digital cameras is the LCD screen. Being able to see what photo you just took so you can retake it if needed is so much better than having to wait 2 weeks for the photo to come back form the lab and realize you'd have prefered to compose it differently. Why do away with this great feature and force yourself to use a bad one instead? I really don't get it.
Really great video, thank you 🌸
Thank you so much for watching! :)
Love all your YT video Zach!! X-Pro is the F-22 of all jetfighters while XV100 feels like F-35. Have a feeling that the next gen X-pro and X100 will merge into something called 'X Pro Prime' LOL. Why not? These 2 cameras shares too much similarities. I really hope Fujifilm sticks with 26MP pixels and never goes up. Clarity is not a key factor of Fujifilm after all. Auto-focus performance enhancement is the most anticipated.
I don't know anything about jet fighters, but yeah! haha - You're right, I love both cameras. I'm excited to see where they go next. Agreed on MP. Thanks for watching!
Okay ginger Edward Cullen. Nice video :)
LOL I haven't gotten that one before but I'll take it! haha Thanks for watching! :)
Hi, is the rear stick mushy/sticky?
I am still in love with the X Pro1.
Amazing! I've heard such good things. Thanks for watching! : )
do you prefer xpro3 before xt4 eventhough the viewfinder is all the way to the left?
Just watching this now Zach, and if you want another compact lens to go with your X-Pro3 kit... I can confirm the newly released xf27mm f2.8 r wr is crazy compact on mine... I did the math, and the x-Pro3 + xf27mm f2.8 r wr is exactly 103g heavier than an X100V, which is astonishing given the Pro3 is still an ILC.
Also, forgot to mention: great video!
Man thank you so much! I would love to try that new 27! Really appreciate the comment & thank you for watching :)
Why is there music playing? I thought I had another tab open lol
Sorry...haha but thanks for watching :)
Hi. I'm planning to buy my first camera. Woul you recommend me this one? Thanks!
I love the Canon R system. Maybe start there? Thanks for watching!
Absolutely beautiful intro!
Thanks so much, Patrick! I really appreciate it. Thank you for watching 😊
Nice review (reasons to buy it or not), I upgraded from the X-T2 to the X-T4 mainly for battery life, I’m looking for a smaller Fuji camera (as a backup) like the X-Pro-3 but I want to be able to share the batteries, so for now I’ll have to wait (or buy another X-T4, I gave the X-T2 to my daughter). Stay safe Zach.
Thanks, Enrique! Congrats on the upgrade- the X-T4 looks like an amazing camera! I would love to try it out. Most of the reasons I love the X-Pro3 would apply to the X-T4 as well I think. Enjoy shooting with it! Thanks so much for watching and for the comment! 🙂
Great stuff, Zach. I own Xpro2 and would never sell it. So many memories attached to it. Only considering about one thing: I have the GFX50S with the best lenses (110 is awesome) and thought to have it for prof jobs. But it's sometimes slow. So I got the XT4 recently (I started enjoing videos too, but mainly focussed on stills, especially portraits).
The thing is, I am often on travel and love travel/street portraits. And I think about finding a new apartment and adding the one room is my little studio - so therefore the GFX would be cool.
And now I am thinking would it be better to sell XT4 and and GFX for a full frame cam?
My buddy who sold me the cameras would tell me: "Stop overthinking. Start shooting."
What would you give me as advice? Is FF such a crucial thing for prof jobs?
Hi, Christoph! Thank you for the comment - this is such a good question and one that I could make an entire video about! It is hard for me to answer or offer advice since I don't know enough about you, what you like shooting, how you use your cameras, etc. BUT, what I can say is that your friend has a point, sometimes we think too much about gear and not enough about what it does for us. I am SO GUILTY of this, and UA-cam does not make it any better haha... The X-T4 with a GFX sounds like a dream setup, but it all depends on how you use your camera. For me, I have found that my full frame Canon cameras allow me to create consistent professional work that I am happy with. I know I can rely on that gear to give me what I want. The X-Pro3 is there for more creative shots on a pro shoot or as my everyday/personal camera. But that doesn't mean that you need full frame for pro jobs. When you forget about the gear you are using to make the work, and focus only on the work, that's when you know the gear is right for your professional work because it doesn't get in the way. Anyway, just my quick thoughts about this. Hope it helps! Thanks for watching and for the comment 😊
The GFX 100S has changed the game. It is not much more expensive than the Canon R5 but will give you much better IQ for Pro Work. But it is small enough and fast enough that you can use it for street and travel as well. The lenses remain large, but you have to 500m pancake for example. So I'm actually debating getting rid of my X-T3 and getting the GFX 100S. Maybe I'll get the Pro3 (used to have the Pro2 and am missing it) and combine it with the GFX 100S.
@@macmac8122 You are totally right! The 100S has changed the game- really intriguing stuff. And with the X-Pro3 - talk about a dream setup! haha - thanks so much for watching!
Hey Zach, really enjoyed your video and your calm attitude. I'm on the edge to switch from my X-H1 to the X-Pro3. Can you tell me if I modify fiml emulations and safe them as custom emulations, would I be able to switch between them up and down with the stick just like it's possible with the standard ones? You're insihgt would help me a lot! Thank you, cheers Tim
You can save custom settings & switch between them easily, yes. Thanks so much for watching!
Hi Zach! Do you have the black or the dura black version? 😚
Hi! I have the black version, but the dura black and dura silver look so nice!!! Really just up to your preference. Thanks so much for watching!
Love your vid :) now i want to have this so bad
Haha I know the feeling! Thanks for watching :)
Thank you so much for this. :-)
Thank you for watching! :)
Hi, u mentioned that u also own a canon? I am thinking of selling my canon eos R for buying the Fuji film x pro 3.. but I am afraid of regretting it.
The thing that afraid me is the image quality and going back to aps-c from full frame, is there e big difference? Or also a small difference?
Thank you for you video! 😊
I have actually moved entirely over to canon full frame mirrorless & love it! Depends on what you want/need out of your camera. Thanks for watching!
If you wear spectacles like I do, the X Pro 3 is unusable due to the insufficient eye relief. Fujifilm needs to address this.
Good point - It's definitely not an ideal LCD shooter camera. Thanks for watching.
I'm unsure as to which SD cards to use with this new Camera as some of the prices are way too high for my street shooting budget
I would do some research about what write speeds you need for your work. Hope this helps!
That small shelf with expensive lenses would give me anxiety
This camera look amazing and it is well done. Right now i don't have enought money but in future i will buy this one or x pro 1 becouse im not proffesional but that fealing is cool. Right now i have X100 :3 And Olympus OMn ^^
Awesome! Happy shooting and thanks so much for watching :)
I disagree with you on the size and weight. While it is smaller and lighter than most DSLRs, it is bulkier than most full frame mirrorless (Nikon Z, Sony A7 etc). I had the XPro2 but I found it too big and heavy for an APSC camera without IBIS.
Ah interesting! I would never think of it that way, but thanks for the perspective. Thanks for watching :)
@@TheZachMendez thanks for the feedback, great video 🙏
Thanks. For the video. 😀 .
Thank you so much for watching! 🙂
Hey, friend. Great video. Invest in a pop filter for your mic? Have a great day
Thanks so much for watching! Good suggestion haha...Cheers!
Это прекрасная камера📸🔥❤️
Thanks for watching! :)
Nice intro tune!
Thanks, Perry! I’m glad you liked it. Thank you for watching! 🙂
What is the lens you got on the camera at the 3:16 minute mark? Thanks
Sorry which camera/lens are you asking about?
@@TheZachMendez thx for your answer i am asking about the lens you see in this video through the ovf @ 3:16 minutes in the video
The apsc isn't what helped them to achieve such a small body size. Actually the Leica M10 is smaller and has an fx sensor. It's heavier but I think it's because they use brass. Xpro3 is titanium for the upper and lower plates.
So many points you mentioned are the opposite for me. I hate my x-pro3 for its poor ergonomics, poor non coupled ovf, trash "hidden" screen, bad iso/SS dial...
And no you're not weird. I went to bed so many times and took it with me so I can feel close 😂
You know... Camera porn 😍
LOL yeah totally - thank you for watching! Much appreciated :)
Are you shooting your video with xpro3?
Thanks for watching! No, this video was shot on the EOS R6 :)
@@TheZachMendez Could you make a video using your xpro3 or about xpro3 video? I am planning to start my yt channel and the only camera that I have is xpro3. Everyone is saying that it's not a good camera for videos and I am trying to understand why.
@@MagdaReyman It's such a great question! Thanks for the suggestion - would love to make a video about it. I think the X-Pro3 captures wonderful video! It's just that the usability doesn't lend itself to video as much as other cameras do, but that is not to say that the video is bad at all! I've filmed videos on my channel with the X-Pro3 (like this one ua-cam.com/video/oEhHzPzwrP4/v-deo.html). I hope this helps! :)
@@TheZachMendez thank you! There is not a single video about xpro3 + video on UA-cam hahah
@@MagdaReyman I totally agree, I'm in the exact same situation and no one is talking about its capabilities. Wanting an x-t4 to film. I have only one thing left to do : shoot videos and discover if it's a good or bad video camera and try to make it work anyway.
There's no ibis and I only have one lens, the 23 1.4, and I'm struggling to find a gimbal that I could use with the xpro3 screen flipped down. Need a mic too. I think the reason people say the x-pro3 is bad is because : no IBIS, 8BITS, no 4:2:2, no HDMI output, no separate video switch, bad flippy screen overall bad ergonomics... Even the X100V is better.
Waiting for an x-pro3 to come into stock so I can buy it 😭
I feel this! Hopefully it will be worth the wait though! Or maybe by that time there will be an X-Pro4 - lol thanks so much for watching and for the comment, James! 🙂
I only use vintage glass on mine, works wonderful (I don't have any Fuji lenses yet). If you assign a button to preview in the EVF, you are in heaven! So quick, so easy. Way better than to look at a backscreen. Just my input. Thanks.
Thanks so much for the tip! I really need to do that more. I would love to try some vintage glass - I’ll bet that produces really beautiful results! Thanks so much for watching and for the comment 😊
@@TheZachMendez And the manual focus is even faster than the auto focus, since you don't have to recompose to focus. Super!
Left eye dominant gang, where you at??? 😤
I can’t wait to buy this camera in 5-10 years time!!
Yes!! haha it is so great! Thanks for watching :)
Why do you think you need that dreadful background Music(?!) think about it! It only detracts from your voice audio! Take a hint!,
Sorry you didn't like the music, but thanks so much for watching! Glad you found the channel :)
Hmmm.... not convinced.
Haha fair - thanks for watching!
As a former x-Pro3 owner, I disagree that this camera is small and lightweight.
OK, do you use smaller cameras than the X-Pro3? I suppose if you were using smaller cameras, it wouldn't be small & lightweight relatively speaking. I honestly don't know how else to describe it when coming from the larger full frame mirrorless/dslr cameras (like I said in the video). Thanks for watching! 😊
@@TheZachMendez I have used x-t10 and more recently x-s10. I consider those small and lightweight.
@@FotosyMas. Fair enough
background music is unnecessary and distracting, not cool either
I’ll consider that. Thanks for watching!
Yes you love it. Till a new new camera comes along and then you ditch it for that.
Then you'll make a new video to tell us why it is the best thing ever.
Well that’s kind of rude. If you don’t like my videos, there are literally a billion other options on this platform for you. Lucky you. Thanks for watching though! 🙂
@@TheZachMendez Ignore that negativity. I’m glad you’ve made a bunch of content on this camera. The majority of the other reviews are strictly about using this camera for street photography, which is cool but it’s not the sole use case of this camera. I’ve been contemplating buying this for a few months. Your videos are helpful. Thanks Zach!
@@TheRem484 Thank you so much - this actually means a lot & is super helpful for me to hear right now because, with the last couple of videos I've put out, I have been seeing more and more haters finding their way to my channel... I suppose it is inevitable when posting to YT, but it still sucks to be on the receiving end. Luckily the majority of the engagement is from really kind, positive folks like yourself and that has been so wonderful. Thanks a bunch for watching & I am so happy to hear that you find the videos helpful :)
@@TheZachMendez You’re so welcome. There’s a lot of keyboard gangsters out there, please don’t let that discourage you moving forward. People LOVE to say things behind closed doors that they wouldn’t otherwise say to your face. And it’s super simple to opt out of someone’s content if you don’t care for it, no need to be nasty. Then again, it’s the unfortunate climate we live in today. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with having multiple camera’s either. I have an x100F and will most certainly purchase the Sony a7IV whenever that comes but it’s nice to have a camera that you can walk around with daily and not feel like you’re gonna get robbed or weighs too much. I think the xpro3 will satisfy that desire for me. The x100f is great but my main issue is not being able to change the focal length.
Couldn’t agree with you more. And yes, the X-Pro3 is exactly that for me! Thanks again 😊
