    I had a graduation photoshoot yesterday, I used the XH2... Back on my laptop, I had to zoom in on each photo to check if the eyes are sharp enough! This is really unreliable and so tiring when you work with over a thousand photos. Fuji, we need a reliable AF so we can stop thinking if it's in focus or not!

      I can confirm that the AF is lacking for video, especially when there is a lot of movement or quick and repeated focus shifts from fore- to background. However, I noticed that for stills there is a big difference depending on what lens you are using. I feel that the XF70-300 and XF33 1.4 with their newer linear motors are extremely reliable at focusing. I had a situation a few weeks ago where my X-H2 AF easily outperformed my colleague's Z8 when shooting hummingbird hawk-moths, which are not that easy to capture. The AF was spot on! Same for most portrait situations.

    What annoys me the most is not even the piss poor AF performance of the Fuji but the fact that they intentionally limit the stock to keep the demand up artificially and use that as a reason to hike up the prices of the new bodies. In my region, the A6700 is almost 20% cheaper with the kit lens.

      True. I could not agree more with this. I have also watched several videos comparing a6700 and X-T5, but this one by far made me to 80% decided to take the Sony a6700. I am really thorned between Sony a6700 because of its reliable AF and on the other hand, Fujifilm X-T5's great color production straight out of the box.

    I recently switched from a Fuji X-T3 to the Sony A7iv. Granted, the Fuji was older technology, but shooting with the A7iv has been a revelation. The autofocus is so much better, and the responsiveness of the camera is nearly instantaneous. The Sigma and Sony lenses I got are lightweight and have aperture rings, so the shooting experience is similar (I don’t shoot with zooms). I really like the Fuji system, and the images from my X-T3 were fine, but without reliable autofocus there’s no upgrade path. Unfortunately, Fuji is becoming the Leica M of APSC.

    Great comparison. I don’t have the XT5 but I have the XH2 and see comparable results when compared to my Sony bodies. My take on Fujifilm autofocus is a little different. I see the X line as a great walk around and portrait line of cameras and not a sports shooting brand. So the autofocus tracking ability for fast paced movements doesn’t bother me. I shoot a bunch of brands and I know if I want to shoot action, I’ll grab one of the brands that are designed for those scenarios. I don’t think anyone is going to the Olympics with a Fujifilm body 🤷🏽‍♂️. What Fujifilm lacks in autofocus they make up in almost every other category, and that’s from a Sony and Nikon first shooter.

How you choose to use it is up to the photographer. Otherwise you’re wasting your money having faulty cameras. You’re also on a league of your own too, not many people are fortunate enough to shoot with multiple camera systems.. that’s why I keep harping on the fact people should spend their hard earned money on something that works and that is reliable.

      @@Iamtongue I understand your perspective 100%. For those that are new to photography or do not have the budget to operate with multiple brands, it’s best to get what will check most if not all the boxes for your needs. I see Fujifilm as a more premium tool with a focused purpose. Example: People buy Hassleblad for its image quality and history and not its autofocus capabilities, portability, or menus. My point is to know what your intention and the purpose of the tool is before grabbing it. I see your work all the time and you can create amazing images on any brand. That comes with knowing the art form and understanding the basics that applies to all brands. Too many “new” photographers expect the cameras to do all the work 🤷🏽‍♂️.
      I used to go on nature walks in my hometown and even though my Nikon and Canon cameras had superior autofocus, my gear choice was frowned upon, by Leica and Fujifilm shooters. Not because of their cost but because of the process. I could shoot and move on and never appreciate the purpose of that community, my settings or the environment.

    Regarding the Fuji system, I also tried a Fuji XT4, since the specs meet my requirements for that backup camera, but the files just look soft, even with the Viltrox pro lenses (those lenses defeat the purpose of the system for me but I wanted to give it a chance, but I know now that the lenses I had was not at fault). I had an a7iii so I can confidently say the Fuji is noticeably softer. I downloaded XT5 files shot with the new 56mm Fuji lens and those were softer then my a7iv files as well.

    I think Sony has improved their colour science a lot. I think the Sony leans into a more neutral look, which is good. With the reliable AF and massive lens choices, the Sony is a good option.
    I'm migrating from Fuji to Nikon. The Nikon ZF has excellent MF tracking assists which sold me. The ZF + Voigtlander lenses sound like a dream and it makes my vintage lenses more appealing for street photography use.
    As for my professional video needs, I'm going back to exclusively using my bmpcc 4k and selling my XH2S. There's something special about the image it produces as well as BRAW being a dream to grade. The specs of the XH2S are insane, but there's more to the picture than just specs.

    Great video. I can't tell if the soft Fuji photos show up randomly, or if it occurs at a certain distance (i.e. as the subject gets closer to the camera). Can you comment on that?
    To be fair, "acceptably sharp" is a real thing - depends on what you are doing. But I can agree that "tack sharp" is and should be the goal, every time. ESPECIALLY because you tried the exact same lens on both cameras, the results on the Fuji are just embarrassing and sad.
    I guess with Sony you get more hits, saving time. But then you lose time editing the gross colors and over-sharpening (yep, I think Sony is too sharp at times). With Fuji, you have to overshoot, so the time saved on editing is lost culling. At the end of the day I wouldn't choose the 6700 - I just do not like the layout, the poor displays, single card slot, and so on. Still waiting for a good FF option in the $2-$3k range, otherwise I'm saving up for a Z8 or R5ii or sticking with the mighty XT3.
    I will be OK with Fuji jacking prices when they add the processing power the cameras seem to badly need. All the fastest FF cameras are use dedicated chips to image / AF processing. But IDK.

    Have to say you are right - even if my personal mis/hit rate is about 50:50. that’s not good - but as you say every ooc footage of the Fuji looks better than the Sony (not considering kinda sharpness). If I have to post photos fast, most of the time the overall look of the Fuji is so much better than the Sony, even the slight out of focus does not matter (my personal trade off). No excuse - the focus ist really bad…

    I bought the Sony A7 III in 2019, but I love film simulations, so I also purchased the Fujifilm X-T30 and the XF 23mm F2 lens. I found that even though the XF 23mm is one of the fastest lenses in the Fujinon lineup, the hit rate with the X-T30 is much lower than the A7 III. I hoped Fujifilm would improve their autofocus in the X-T4, X-T5, and even the X-H2. This year, I bought the X-T5 and sold my X-T30 II (I had sold my original X-T30 three years ago). However, the X-T5 showed very little improvement. Now, I 'm like, “Okay, Fujifilm is for fun and for their film simulations. I’m okay with this because I don’t do photography for a living.

I, for one, not a big fan of that and it discourages me to bring it out for shooting. I like Fuji color but I had to sell my XT1 years ago because I did not bring it out much as it was hard to use (I found that I missed focus a lot obviously). Nowadays I bring my camera out every time on a trip and have fun shooting not caring much if the subject is going to be in focus because they always do 99% of the time and I can focus more on the composition, lightning and etc rather than the camera system flaws with my A6700. If I want to go light, I bring Sigma 18-50mm + 56mm combo. If I want the best quality possible, I bring Viltrox 27mm + 75mm.

    12:40 About the sharpness you mentioned.. I’ve been pixel-peeping the RAW files from my a6100, and it also looked “too sharp” to me with no post-sharpening (with a sharp sigma 56mm 1.4). It occurred to me at the time that Sony might be secretly adding sharpness. There is indeed an in-camera setting to reduce sharpness below 0. At -3 (minimum value), the photos looked “correct” when pixel-peeping. This could mean, that -3 is actually 0, and 0 is actually +3. With how much trickery companies use to get ahead of competitors, it wouldn’t surprise me.
    Sometimes people may feel that a lens is “too sharp”. This is not the case, unless softness is the desired style. The sharpest lens imaginable would only be as sharp as nothingness (where there is nothing that breaks the light), so any sharpness that looks unnatural must come from in-camera or in post.

    Very good comparison! I shoot with the XT5 and yes, I have "false positives" sometimes on moving subjects. But I'm a humble amateur, and if I lose a shot now and then, well, the world keeps on turning anyway... And, the Fuji output is gorgeous. The JPEG's are a lot nicer, I think, than the Sony's, as your video shows. As you point out, Fuji's RAW files are fantastic; they are very easy to edit. Also, I like the handling of the Fuji XT series; no need to dive into menu's to get perfect lighting. So, nothing is perfect and if I would switch (it would be Nikon then, no doubt), I'm pretty sure I would like the AF better - but I would miss other things that I like in the Fuji system. That said, my son is pro shooter and, in particular, videographer and he cannot afford to miss focus at all, so he is in the process of switching from Fuji XH2 to, probably, Panasonic S5IIx. Which I really understand. So it really depends what you need - and want.

    interesting video!
    It's a shame how Fuji messed up the AF with the firmware. Personally, I'm still on version 2 on my X-T5,
    so it works great. I use face and eye AF with AF-C all the time and would say my hit rate is around 90% for my street photography.
    My commercial work is slow-paced, so I have no issues there.
    However, when Fuji updated one of my cameras, I noticed more issues and ended up selling that camera.
    I'm also using the X-S20 with the newest firmware, and it's not reliable. I noticed worse performance on the street and strange things going on in video AF.
    I used the A7S III and A7 IV professionally at the agency where I worked before, and I kind of miss Sony for my film work.
    Though nowadays I mostly do stills and would still stick with Fuji for that,
    as you say, it saves a lot of time in editing. But it seems like I shouldn't update the firmware!
    However, the thought of getting something else for video is on my mind at the moment.
    Considering how much criticism Fuji is getting right now, and that even the most fundamental
    fanboys are starting to acknowledge the issues, we might get it fixed soon.
    Basically, what they have to do is go back to firmware version 1 with the AF and throw everything else in the trash!

    I kept some of my fuji x lenses cause I still love the system and I still have an xt3. The xt3 has a slow AF but at least it was more reliable/accurate with the green box.
    I have 2 xt3 cameras for when I miss shooting fuji and the canon is sometimes just too big. The Xt3 hasn't let me down, yes it's slower but it has amazing colours and I just love the whole feel of them

    Great video man, it's sad that Fujifilm has screwed up so bad their AF.
    I won't leave Fuji, as a hobbyist I just love the experience of my X-T5, but I can relate to what happened to you on the gym, just on the opposite side.
    I traveled to Japan with a friend. In Kyoto we visited Fushimi Inari Shrine, which was stuffed with tourists. We only had limited time to get some shots within the row of Torii gates.
    I bought a X-T2 in Japan (poetic, iykyk), and now I have experience shooting Fuji. I took an amazing Pic of my friend within the Toriis, discounting the missed shots.
    I taught my friend how to use the camera, and sadly all the shots he took of me were focusing on what was on my back except for one where I am in a very dark spot.
    What is depressing is that I know that it wouldn't have metered if I got my X-T5, I am 90% convinced that the result would have been pretty much the same.
    The X-T2 is still a very capable camera, but Fuji keeps dropping the ball with their AF. It pays off that their color science and in camera raw conversion tools are unbeatable as a combo.

    Real good presentation. As an owner of the fuji xt3 and the Sony 6300, I have used both in various environments and I am convinced Sony has the edge. Further, Sony makes a lighter camera with easier menus. I have had my eye on the 6700, but videos like this have made it so popular, that the price has spiked! Please Stop! LOL

      Its not a major hardware problem with the XT5. It was decent when released. Fuji messed up the software to a point that future updates started to degrade the AF System. A newer body and more processing power will not fix it.

    I haven't really noticed any problems with the AF on my XS-20, but I mostly stick with single AF and hardly shoot any video. Can imagine it'd get annoying though and I don't like knowing that my camera is working suboptimally compared to the competition. Hopefully they get on top of this

    I have my xt5 for few months already and im very disapointed with the AF. Like really. Thats not a cheap camera to have and yet those issues are knows for quite a while and still fuji company aint doin anything to help theyr customers. Im about to sell it and go for Sony couse i cant relay on it. its Hard to say this but thats my last Fujifilm camera i bought.

    The X-T5 is just a pleasure to use. Like he says, the photos have soul.
    These Fuji haters make me laugh with their comments such as "moving to Sony was the smart choice" 🤣 .

    I dont stick to single brand. I have the fuji xt2 , canon 5d2 , nikon d800 & sony a1.
    For this comparison i get the a6700 over xt5 , just because it cost $750 cheaper in my region , fujifilm needs to lower their price.

    The photos and videos coming out of the Sony look glossy; this gives them a high-quality look.
    I don't know whether Fuji's photos look less glossy because Fuji adds a little bit of grain to the photos to make them look film-like or because it's a Sony thing.
    Try to include a third camera from a different brand like an APS-C Canon in the test to know if the sharpness is a Sony thing or due to Fuji's added gain.
    I think you haven't tested/ reviewed any Canon cameras yet.

      Its only fuji who handles noise like iso, the rest is same as sony since well , sony doesnt really "modify" their sensor to be different.
      Sonys are almost always procidinf the most accurate result , which doesnt mean its good , because we human prefer things to be hyper real in a way

    So, I switched from Canon to Fuji around 2016. The last Fuji camera I bought was my X-T3 and it's been my workhorse. Not a fan of Sony because their colors are trash. As for AF and Fuji, I've found the lenses make the biggest difference. Never had a problem with the f2 lenses. But some (I'm looking at you pre-2021 35mm f/1.4) are just horrendous. Oddly, Sigma lenses work really well with Fuji, at least in my experience. I'm finally upgrading, though. Waiting for my X-S20 to arrive.

      Will it improve? YES, it will probably be better but the bar was already set too low anything they do after is going to be a win. But i have zero faith that it will reach the likes of sony and canon especially, not this generation of cameras.

    I own the Fuji XH2s. The first time I used it- immediate rush of happiness. Finally the AF was good. The colors are just oh so beautiful.
    Then came those dreaded software updates. Ruining the shooting experience one update at a time.
    The sad part is that a stacked super fast hardware system like the XH2s can be a monster with a good AF system. The Firmware 1.0 was a great example. I just want Fuji to wake up before it's too late.
    Ps. with the 16-55 LM or the 18-120 the AF is decent. Any other lens- it just falls apart.

    I'm on an Alaskan cruise shooting with the XH2s and XT5 and I've come to the same conclusion. I shot 3000+ photos in very challenging conditions - small boat rocking, rain, darkness, small target (sea otters) and using zone focus. I can't help but think I'd have a better "hit" rate of useful photos with my Sony. Fuji needs to realize they are killing their brand with denial. I'm thinking about selling off my Fuji's until they start to improve in a major way.

I dont like being treated as a bata tester (more like alpha but that seemed a bit meen) it happens in the gaming space and nothing boils my p!ss more. actually sort the problem and quickly not a month or 3 down the line. colour science or not its not worth it, the fuji will loss me/you money at some point as you/we miss images.

    Don't know what Fujifilm is doing... But at release with the stock 1.xx firmware the X-T5, X-H2(s) were good on the AF aspect, not perfect but good and close to others but not yet there! Now it's like playing roulette... At times it's ok/good the next time not even usable on AF-C and moving subjets. But it's been like that for generations, had the same issue on the X-T3 and X-T4 the focus square was spot on the eye (even on AF-S) but the focus was still off, sometimes way off. So if you wan't speedy AF and reliable AF go with Sony.
