  • After using my Fujifilm X-E4 to photograph Tokyo, Kyoto, and Hiroshima during the spring bloom of the Japanese cherry blossoms I decided to give my first impressions on the camera. Spoiler alert! I'm a fan.

    Just goes to show u alot of people just have gear syndrome. Any new camera packs so much features and a powerful sensor. Any new camera that is in the 1000$ range is good and there are no bad ones, it all depends on your needs. Obviously u will not use this camera for professional work but for personal use of photography and videography (especially for youtube or instagram) this is an insane camera. I know alot of people who got surprised when they took something like sony A7S III in their hands which is a 4k$ camera and their videos looked bad. Its all about basic principles of composition, lightning, angles etc. You can make some amazing videography with this because its all about the person holding the camera, sure more expensive camers will be more consistent in work, but for the entry camera this is a beast. Some of the most iconic shots and photos were made with gear that was released decades ago, so a 2021 camera from someone like Fuji with a 4k ability will be amazing.

      I agree with this so much. Understanding the concepts will take you much further than fancy gear will. P.S. I love your profile pic

    Great video! As a Fuji purist myself, I can never understand why people shy away from the platform just because it’s “not full frame.” Fuji makes the best cameras for shooters, and even my aunt who is sponsored by Leica now says she will gladly go back to Fuji if they gave her a call. Keep it up, man!! Subbed!

    I’m so grateful I picked up my Xe4 when it could still be had for retail price! I’ve enjoyed taking short breaks from film shooting and just taking the little Fuji with me. Also, it is LOADS more fun than my Sony A7rII!

    The 27mm lens would be the equivalent to 40mm, 23mm would be 35mm full frame.

    • @Moontorc_
      @Moontorc_ 3 місяці тому

      Yep, hence why the X100 series uses a fixed 23mm.

    Love this!! I own an XE4 and going to Japan later this year! So excited to use it there. Just wondering, at 12:00, you showed the RAW processing feature - does that only work when you shoo tin RAW? or could you also do it with JPEG photos and then process that?

    • @DanielsimsSteiner
      @DanielsimsSteiner  Рік тому +1

      Ohh I’m so excited for you! That’s a great question! I don’t have my camera with me to test it right now but I’m pretty certain you have to be shooting in RAW to!

    The 27mm on a Fujifilm camera is equivalent to a 40mm on a fullframe camera.

    Are all the video clips from the X-E4 as well?

    • @DanielsimsSteiner
      @DanielsimsSteiner  Рік тому

      Thank you! Most of the video is filmed on a Sony a7siii, but there are a couple clips from the x-e4. They’re labeled or on the super wide lens!

    3:20 thats wrong… you have to do 27mm x 1.5 = 41mm not 35 (:

    May i know what step rings you're using for the filter? Is that a 82mm filter?
    Tryna get a filter on my 27mm pancake too but I'm not sure what size to get.

    • @DanielsimsSteiner
      @DanielsimsSteiner  Рік тому +1

      Yeah it is an 82mm! I had to stack a bunch lol. There is a bunch of different ways to stack them, I would just look for one that can go from 27mm to the biggest and then stack one or two (or three lol) more on to get to 82

    It’s not a cropped sensor but a APS-C sensor with the lenses designed FOR that sensor. This means there is no cropping.

    • @NL0Gwenster
      @NL0Gwenster Рік тому +4

      The standard for talking in focal length has always been 35mm, in the digital world known as full-frame. His 27/2.8 pancake lens is considered a 40mm full-frame equiv. And not 35mm, as he says in the video. (that'd be 23x1.5) This is what he means with crop-sensor.
