The poppyseed in Jordan's teeth lets me see how just how sharp the new Fuji really is. Just Genius. How did you ever think of that?
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Genius+1
Better than a piece of seaweed in the middle making it look like a gap. From experience....
honestly this looks like a killer camera, especially when considering the price!
$400 on adorama

Right
But bad 1080p video :(
I wish Fuji upgrades XF10 like they did with this one, especially when it comes to AF
XF10
Chris, you and Jordan are a delight to watch. I was looking to get my first camera and when I saw your video, I was sure that Fujifilm X-T200 is the way to go and I was right. I am enjoying this camera so much. Thank you so much for this review. It helped me to join the photography family ❤️
U got this camera?
@@spikeweb5193 Yup, I am enjoying it so far.
@ cool ☺️ using for photo or video?
@@spikeweb5193 Mainly for photos.
@ i think about this camera ☺️ i got zv-1 for video but looking something for photos 😁 i think about m50 or x-t200
Oh, that looks like a nicely rounded out camera in photo and video. Wow, even headphone capability...
@Strawberry Kiys wait what 16 shot buffer?
I watched your videos, especially EVERY video that mentions the x-t200 before I bought mine two years ago and I love it. It's a shame it's been discontinued because it's incredible!
As handsome as Chris is, could we please have an hour of peekaboo Jordan please? 4:59
One thing that is not talked about much is that some Fuji cameras have the old Bayer sensor and some have the newer X trans sensor. I and many others find the Bayer sensor to be far superior to the x trans, but this fact seems to be downplayed by most reviewers and even Fuji itself. I have been using a Fuji X 10 for years. It produces stunning color images compared to the Fuji X 100s with X trans sensor. Now that Fuji is bringing back the Bayer sensor in the XA 7 and XT 200, I may even think about upgrading. Would appreciate any comments you may have on my input.
It does feel pretty plasticky but it handles ok. I can't make any of the back buttons do AF-ON sadly but the AF eye detect was good in decent light. Overall a good competitor and a solid price point.
No back button focus? That’s a deal breaker
Been watching DPReview for YEARS but never subbed...no idea why!?! Just did because I hate to see someone beg...lol. All the best!
An absolute pleasure watching this review! Clear, comprehensive and complete! The comparison to the X-A7 in the end was thoughtful as well.
Now, for the occasional indoor video, say once a month, is the T200 a necessity over the X-A7? More than saving 150 odd dollars (10000 rupees here in India), I'm also mighty impressed with the looks of the A7. What apart from the viewfinder and gimbal stabilization would I really miss on the A7?
Love my X-T30, but wish Fuji had given us a vari angle touch screen!
agree i think thats what the xt30 is lacking, if it had the same screen as on this xt200 it would be a phenom.
I'm sitting here with my laptop watching camera videos and my Canon DSLRs are sitting on the shelf looking at me, like I'm watching something bad. Not replacing them anytime soon or buying another camera soon, but no harm in looking.
That Pro Neg looks so nice.
Update: Wait, it does have Pro Neg. What it lacks is Classic Neg.
I wasn’t ready for my favorite immaculately bearded man to sneak this upload into my subscriptions feed while I unknowingly, simultaneously typed XT200 in the search bar
Wait which one? We both have beards... Hmmm.
@@niccollsvideo aha! You owned the prize beard yesterday, until I heard that Jordan is expecting a second little one. With this new development, and the possibility of his immaculate beard catalyzing life, I award this title to him 👑 LONG LIVE KINGBEARD
woah the video footage from the XT-200 looks really sharp
Bayer without anti aliasing filter will do that
@@xmlthegreat I'd say a bit oversharpened, but you can dial it down.
I haven't seen anything stated about this not having an aa filter
@@joeyeti374 well TCSTV said it so I thought it was true.
Love the recurring weight comparison to the Noct!
Great video and introduction to the XT-200. Thank you for sharing. I’m now wrestling with getting the XT-200 when it comes out or get the XT-30. I’d love to see a comparison between those two, if you’re taking video recommendations.
just bought the XT20 2 weeks ago..this is great
yes but acros is nice
I always like to see your camera reviews. All the time I am looking for your channel first. Because you are presenting things 100% honestly. We can accurately evaluate a camera by stating it's advantages and disadvantages. Hope this honesty continues. Wishing you all the best for your channel my brother.
Heavens heard my prayer. Thanks for the review.
Looks like a solid package. I'm still in the m4/3 ecosystem, but Fuji would be my next choice if they would roll out IBIS and WR across more of their line-up.
Be patient, a matter of a few weeks
@@os6219 that's what the XH1 is for
Rathanak's Life H1 is officially discontinued. Buy it used or the coming T4. In a few weeks
I just got the x-t200 and I am also hearing the encoding artifacts on the audio, though it seems worse on some takes. I've been testing with the Video Micro at different gains and I seem to have a much better signal to noise ratio on my DJI Osmo Action using the same microphone. Between the audio, no recording on USB power and recording limit, I'll probably be returning it.
Thanks guys. Would have been interesting to hear this camera be compared to competition beyond Fuji's lineup - M6 Mark II, Sony A6600, Nikon Z50, etc.
Glad to see Fuji adding a body with great value for what a lot of people want
Just got mine. Overheated indoors with my home temperature at 71 degrees. Also, the warning temp popped up at the 10 minute mark. This will be an instant return. So sad. I've been comparing my Sony system (a6600 and A7iii) to my Fujis for at least the last year. I have to confidently say that I am done with Fuji. Beautiful colors but finicky cameras. The xt30 was also the first camera I've ever had to send in for repairs.
For me, the T100 and T200 are the most beautiful Fuji cameras. And no X-Trans - yeahhh.
Why dont u like x-trans?
Hi I am from India i realy love your video it has many useful contant so you have to campare canon m50 mkii vs fuji xt 200 make sure it is possible
Lots of swirly audio compression artifacts in Jordan’s segment here. But this is the best preview video of this camera currently.
I noticed (compared to the x-t100) there is no rear dial or d-pad.
The rear dial is the quick way to adjust aperture or shutter if in either of
those priority modes. The d-pad added quick access to functions, the most
important being auto focus mode, which was then adjusted with the read dial
again, now missing. Now the only shortcuts seem to be swipe functions, which
the x-t100 also had.
Waiting for x100v!
Thanks for sharing this. I've been looking into upgrading my camera and your video helped heaps
Great video. The comparisons with other 'like' cameras is great. THanks.
just got one, it works great so far
This channel is getting better and better now, but please also make the dpreview web server better, it is slow in loading speed.
Great video! Just got myself one of these and done an unboxing video. So far really impressed with the camera
Ergonomic , articulating screen snd classic look is absolutely amazing , ohh
I hope Sony does something amazing like FUJI X-T200
Please Sony you have the technology to do it. Why you're depriving your loyal customers from from having good looks of the FUJI !!!!!
Great blogging and selfie camera, please bloggers and selfie lovers go buy X-T200, leave us X-T3/X-Pro3 as photographic cameras and stop asking for IBIS, selfie screen and video specs.
Penny Fan 💯💯💯💯💯💯
Ibis helps for photography and the XT-3 is one of the best indie film cameras under $2000
LOL get out of her with that bs. Theres a kajillion cameras out there that fit your needs. These companies keep giving us gimped and gutted models and labeling them for vloggers. Eventually one of them has to open their eyes and realize what people are actually asking for and do it at an affordable yet gimped free price. And after seeing how much they nerfed in this camera our only hope is the XT4.
Let's talk about a great lens they've included with this camera!
Yes it is "just a kit lens", which means it will be a little shit and is a slow f3.5, getting even slower as you zoom in.
But.... look at the major pros for it:
1) Powerzoom, handy for smooth zooms in video
2) OIS, to make up for the lack of IBIS!
3) starts at a fantastic 15mm! There isn't a wider kit lens anywhere else.
15mm is especially good for vloggers, when you're holding out at arms lengths you're always wanting a wider lens or longer arms. (or both!) This is a great first lens to include with the camera, this could be a sleeper hit within the UA-cam community.
Think about it, would you rather buy a Canon M50 or a Fujifilm X-T200?
Then once you've sucked them in with their first camera, it is much easier to get them to buy next a X-T30 instead of a Canon M6 mk2 (or a X-T3 instead of an EOS RP, etc.... or a Fujinon Cinema Camera instead of a Canon C200....).
A little part of me is thinking I should upgrade my UA-cam vlogging Panasonic G6 camera not to a Panasonic G85 but a Fujifilm X-T200 instead?? Hmmmm..... I wonder how low the price will be for the X-T200 kit.
Speaking of kids, congratulations Jordan ❤️👪🙏
desperately need your opinion. Need you opinion which one to buy for photography XT30 or XT200? i'm in a huge confusion between this two and i wanna only for photgraphy not for video . So pls help
What happened to the audio of Jordan’s part? I’m hearing some artifacts.
One place where it seems to save some of the cost is a basic pre-amp for audio. Might not be the case with the final production ones though so we will revisit this.
@@niccollsvideo darn, as you really want to have half decent pre amps for the youtubers! As this could be a massive hit for that crowd
@@SoundSpeeding still dont really understand what they mean by a hot microphone or "good one" like what kind of microphones are they talking about? Rode mic pro is good enough? or the rode mic mini isnt good enough for this camera - or maybe rode wireless go could be better? and just mentioning rode as an example but it just seems unclear when it seems to be a big deal with minimum alternative solutions to the problem
@@JayGrapherTh"Hot signal" means loud. If the external mic sends a strong signal into the camera, the internal micpreamp can be turned down, resulting in less noise.
@@karstenpe right, i feel in my experience using mics (rodeGo and lavalier microphone) i just set the camera mic to lowest anyways and it seems fine haha - XT2 (still need to learn more about audio but good to know though)
Ah! This will be why I managed to pick up an XT100 for just 350 with kit zoom then! Fuji's tend to have a relatively weak IR filter so bit of a bargain for Astrophotography at least, and those programmable dials make things so easy in the dark!
The XT200 looks great. Any idea on price point when these launch?
Where did you get that deal?
$799.95 incl the kit lens.
@@kyawzazaw18 Jessops in the UK, but it's £350 everywhere here now. I don't know where you're based but it works out to around 450 US dollars.
@@Endpoint101 Thanks
@@Astrolavista thanks for your response. Just got a new Body only X-T100 from B&H in the US for US ~$270. I guess I will buy a used lens.
I guess Noct is a new unit of mass in camera system now~
Victor Si yip
it a nice camera to shoot for 4k... sample taken just yesterday at my home studio...
Jordon, dude, you have a poppy seed caught in your teeth...
I could not see anything else when he was talking.
@@BrianJacobson it's between his bottom teeth. One right from the center.
lol i was in to the camera with my thoughts xD havent seen it at the first time as well xD
I'm gonna take a wild guess and say it's from a Tim Hortons everything bagel, the cream cheese...hmmm, I'ma go with Herb & Garlic lol 😋😄
Love that high res fully articulating screen. Fuji really needs to implement that in the upcoming X-T4 and X-H2 as well. That would make them serieus candidates for my next camera.
I hope they don't, not everyone is a vlogger and it would make tilting up/down way slower. Don't do it Fuji!
@@MrJed_s I am not a vlogger either. But for low to the ground macro work such a screen is perfect. Doesn't limit you to landscape orientation like the flip outs do.
Finally a option for fuji vloggers !!!
Hello, anyone know how long can the battery in Fujifilm XT200 last if I were to take timelapse?
That disappointment when it’s not the X-T4
He knew:)
his disappointment was immeasurable and his day was ruined
it was sooooo apparent lol
wait 1 week and you will know
Fujifilm have really made a comeback. They seem good for still photography. But still need to improve on video and audio. Good honest review 👍
7:48 "But remember, if you're grabbing a microphone it should be one that sends a pretty hot signal into this camera" What does this mean? Any microphone recommendations? Thanks
Very simply this could be the best Vlog camera for 4k right now.
At the very least the best Fuji has to offer for features necessary for vlogging.
So people are really so spoiled that clicking who buttons and turning off auto focus is a deal breaker
You can get the X-H1 for the same price with the Battery grip... Why would one buy this over that? (asides maybe the size ofcourse)
because the people this little camera is marketed towards, would be way too overwhelmed with an X-H1.
Hey guys i was wondering why the xh1 price dropped sobfar? I dont really pay much attention but i do know that the initial price is much more
@@alifashrareza Its price dropped because it didn't sell as well as FUJI expected.
H1 rulez, still best Fuji. Even if T4 has IBIS, the H1's ergonomy and top LCD wins.
@@wratnik Agree. I would love to buy one one day. I'm currently using an X-T1. There's something about the number 1 that is awesome. X-T1, X-Pro1, X-H1 xD
Hey Chris and Jordan, thank you for the informative review. One thing I have to criticize: you are always critical about the Sony A6XXX grip. Please be consistent and apply the same measures on the Fuji cameras and their "non existing" grips. Aesthetics is no excuse for horrific ergonomics.
Honestly it a nice package for my needs. Mostly thanks to that new screen. I just wish it had all the fuji film simulation. I mostly Pro neg hi on the X-t30. If it has that I would gladly sell that camera and pick up this.
I already own an X-A7. I think that it is a great camera. Would I be better off upgrading to the XT-200 or the XS-10? Please keep up the good work guys! I enjoy your videos...
I couldn't listen to Jordan speaking - that preamp is diabolical.
Fully Articullating screen is a step backwards for still shooters. Should have retained the two-way tilt of the X-T100.
Was any of the footage shot by the x-t200 color corrected? It's kind of mind-blowing how amazing this looks, especially at this price point. AND it has a flip screen? Awesome!
The video was really healpfull, but i wonder, What about food photography or video photography? Would you recommend X-T200 camara as a good choise ?
I have a Canon 80D and planning to get a 24-70. Should I just invest on the 24-70 or switch to XT-200, been strugling on the decision. 80D is a little heavy for me and it will be heavier if I get the 24-70, but the XT200 got my attention for its light weight and the FLIP SCREEN, also some of the fuji popular simulation is there. Love the straight out of cam jpeg shots on fuji and the retro looks of it. Know that fuji lens have less options compared to other brands that have third party such as sigma and tamron. Seeking for advice here, should I switch or stay?
Another win from fuji
Solid review, very informative - i do like this xt200 love the screen, love the fact it will do decent video, has a proper mic output, the ISO levels seem to be REALLY useable i wonder if thats because its a standard array and not the X-trans array so software companys have an easier time decoding the raw files? they are very clean at 6400 ISO! I wish the XT30 had the same artic screen that this does maybe they will put it on the XT40??? I find it very very disapointing that fuji havent included at least ACROS onto the xt200 its not like its not powerful enough having a newer sensor and processor than what the xt2 had...
Thanks very much for the very informative video - looking for a new camera for shooting product shots for my site and video for my channel... so far this is at the top of my shortlist. 👍
"Maybe it's 50x better than an XT-4...." I like your optimism Chris. haha
I was pretty impressed by the original XT-100. Bought a full spectrum converted one to experiment with some infrared stuff, but I've used it a few times with an ir/uv-cut filter for normal pics too. Great image quality. It was obviously crippled a bit on the video side, though. Probably borrowed Canon's hammer.
This new one looks good for a b-cam type thing. And it's crazy light weight for the performance.
I am going to buy a new Olympus 300mm F4 this weekend. Decided not to buy it from the DPR Amazon link because of the abusive mode system. I was banned because I called the Canon 85mm F1.2 a giant Turd. Oh the horrors I know. I will drive 4 hours to Seattle and buy from Glazers instead. However Looks like DPR UA-cam channel is doing good please keep it up.
always top quality reviews...!
what the hell is with the sound jordon, it feels compressed as hell
Is it because of the mic he's using? Or the camera it self??
You did not show any 1080p video and mention any issues related to that.
Nice review, thanks again champions.
In the UK this is more expensive than the X-T30, which doesn’t make sense if this is a more entry level camera. Would be nice to see a comparison, but I’m assuming the X-T30 is in many wars a step up?
Hi thanks for the videos, I just got this camera after watching all of your reviews. It’s primarily to use as a webcam, so I got a dummy battery also but it’s overheating already. Do you have any advice? I can’t tell if it’s the camera or if the dummy battery isn’t good (however it wasn’t cheap!)
Thanks for the help!
X-A7 and xt200 which one is better on low light shooting?? I am hesitating to choose between x-a7 and xt200.😢 can I hv your advise?
What did you end up going with?
I thought the rationale for excluding ACROS to be the weaker processor of Bayer models.
Keen to see the X-H10
Does it comes with metal mount, or is also plastic like others XC lenses?
Looks like a fine camera, but it is landing just a little too late. I had a few people ask for recommendations for 'starter' cameras coming up the holidays, I made some Fuji recommendations but the prices were just a bit too high (when I could not recommend the XT-100). People know they want the XT-4 and will buy it when it comes out, for more entry level gear I wish the release cycle was timed for the holidays.
I'm curious about the lens, XC 35 mm F2. What's your thought about the new lens, Chris/Jordan?
Ohhh. Stick around and you'll find out!!
I am planning to buy Fuji 70-300 lense for my Xt 200. Any suggestions whether it will be a good combination??
No Eterna is a deal breaker. Only reason I would buy this is to have a small vlog setup to match my other Fuji cameras.
As starter camera gear goes, this one is quite alright. Seems to have enough functions to learn & grow with it.
Is the kit lens are good 14-45mm or need to go for 18-55 mm
Why Chris gives it thumbs up for family photography with 6-8 frames per second as suitable but shoots it down for sports...VERY WELL knowing that this camera was not made for it. What he could have said was this thing was good for quick shooting for sports but expect the buffer to fill really fast as this camera was not meant for sports shooting.
No discussion of body changes? That daft rear vertical dial on the X-T100 drove me nuts. How bad is the joystick placement?
Looks like a great camera!
Please on your final review compare it also with the X-T20 + XF 18-55mm 2.8-4.0, which sells for about the price of the X-T200 + 15-45mm 3.5-5.6, ~800 USD.
I oso like to know
If X-T200 kept the same 600/700$ price point it would have been a great upgrade. At 700/800$ it is much closer to current Fujifilm X-T30 and Sony A6400 prices. Two questions come to mind:
1. If you care about getting the shot at all costs, why not go for Sony A6400 with its super-autofocus instead?
2. If you care about handling and shooting experience, why not go for Fujifilm X-T30?
If you don't need good autofocus or better handling, there's still the 'old' Fujifilm X-T100 for 400$ including the kit lens. Similar image quality, half the price.
(No comment about the overall video quality. However, keep in mind there's no sensor stabilization and X-A7's rolling shutter
was quite bad.)
What's to do if no difference between X-T30 and X-T200 preorder? I'm really missing an articulated screen, but worry about the budget quality and program limitations of X-T200
can you compare the older Panasonic Lumix G85 and the newer Fujifilm X-T200 for video?
Jordan, please use dental floss before filming yourself with 4K. Haha
If it has a port for an external microphone, does this mean it does not have a built in microphone and we’ll have to buy on separately ?
I don't understand why you UA-cam reviewers bash these entry level dirt cheap cameras for not having premium specs and compare it with pro models. Who in the world would use this camera for serious sports and wildlife ? You didn't care about the camera having basically no button but you complaint about the buffer. Same thing happened with Eos RP.
XA7 : "Am I a joke to you?"
I'm comparing this to the X7. The specs in DPreview for the XT200 minimum shutter speed for is 4 sec? I hope that's a typo error...
seems low on features. Digital stabilization only works in 1080p? Why is the audio so bad at 7:15? Sounds like a low bitrate MP3, was that recorded with the camera's mic? Review would've been better if you gave an overview of the controls
Not related to this topic but a few times now I have noticed Chris wearing some fly fishing clothing and wondered if you fly fish. And after listening to the latest Orvis fly fishing podcast I have my answer! Great stuff on the podcast and your videos.
Regarding the quality of the pre-amp: Can anyone recommend a microphone with a high enough output for use with this camera? Is this something that can be quantified by quoting a minimum sensitivity? I know very little about audio but I gather that the sensitivity is always a negative number and the closer it gets to zero the higher the output, so I'm not sure minimum is the right term to use, but you know what I mean.
The only thing stopping me from gifting this to a tween showing interest in photography is the learning curve dead-end because they don't show the actual camera settings on the simple touch screen, so the kid would never get a feel for the numbers related to shutter speed, aperture, etc settings. True, for those who only want to use the graphical control screen that won't matter. But they really have missed the learning process to help a newby move from cellphone-like to standard (ie higher end) camera functions. So currently not a good selection for helping this kid progress.
Fujifilm has the best color science and the looking in the entire industry.
