Fujifilm X-T2 :: design which BLOWS EVERY CAMERA AWAY
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 чер 2017
- Fujifilm has designed a photography gem with the Fujifilm X-T2. The feature I'm most impressed by is the way they have considered the user experience of photographers in the design. The Fujifilm X-t2 is one of the most intuitive mirrorless cameras I've used and I think its an example for all camera manufacturers to learn from.

My name is Ted Forbes and I make videos about photography. I’ve been making photographs most of my life and I have a tremendously deep passion for photography that I want to share with you on UA-cam.
The Art of Photography is my channel and I produce photography videos to provide a 360 degree look into the world of making images. We all want to get better so lets do this together!
I make videos covering famous photographers, photography techniques, composition, the history of photography, philosophy and much more.
I also have a strong community of photographers who watch the show and we frequently do social media challenges for photographers to submit their own work. I feature the best and most interesting on the show when we do these so come check it out and get involved!

"I don't think its a 'retro' thing; I think they picked up where we left off when we gave a flip about user experience." Spot on! Couldn't have said it better myself. I enjoy using Fuji cameras...and its not because it looks "retro." Plus, the lens lineup is incredible.
As a photographer (stills) for some 50 yrs, the user experience tops any "specs" on a sheet for me. If you're not happy using the camera then the results usually reflect that I think. Spot-on with this video Ted!
Classic Chrome, the main reason for me to bought Fuji :) I'm not a guy who can spend 1-2 hours on lightroom to edit the photos, so having classic chrome emulates the old film look is a blessing.
I was a Nikon shooter for years, but picked up the original x100 and x10 when they came out. I alternated using them as my carry everywhere cameras and immediately fell in love with Fuji. I then picked up an XT20 followed shortly by a used XT2 along with a variety of lenses in 2019. The experience of shooting Fujifilm, along with the high quality lenses, and those beautiful colors and film sims persuaded me to sell all my Nikon gear earlier this year and go all in with Fuji. I couldn’t be happier. I know that Fuji will continue to push out new camera bodies, but I could literally be happy with my XT2/XT20 combo forever.
Hi Ted, I was always a Nikon user, until 2 years ago. Out of curiosity I purchased a used Fujifilm X100T. Half a year later, that became my most used camera. The fact that everything was clear at a glance what my settings were. And that there is no need to enter a menu. But because I wanted to use different lenses, I sold all my Nikon gear along with the X100T and bought an X-Pro2 with 4 primes lenses. Never looked back can not be happier. I hope Fujifilm continues to walk this way path. I look forward to your further experience with the X-T2. Greetings Alain
I was pretty semi passionate hobby'ish, sometimes even work, about photography. Had a canon 7D. I got a Fujifilm when the XE1 came out. And it took my passion to a whole new FUN level. I can't understand why any manufacturer would make a system that works in a different way. It's super logical, and super efficient. The Fuji hype is legit. My next Fujifilm some time in the future will probably have the ISO dial too.
I just got my X-T2 yesterday here in 2021, and I look it out for a run and everything you are saying here is so INCREDIBLY TRUE. This camera puts down my complete fleet of cameras, everything from the Lumix G7 to the Sony A6300. This camera makes me want to go out and shoot. None of my cameras have EVER done that for me. EVER. This user experience is BEAUTIFUL! Well said as always and always enjoy your videos my friend.
I think you pretty much nailed the reason to use a Fujifilm-X series camera. My first pro-level camera was the Nikon F-3 and hearing your remarks reminded me of the beautiful simplicity that both cameras have in common. I've struggled with the complex and hard to access menus of many current cameras with Olympus and Sony being at the extreme end of Byzantine menu complexity. Sometimes there's a reason to access a specific feature buried deeply within a camera menu, but for the pure joy of photography...nothing beats simplicity coupled with image quality that is inspirational.
I love my Fuji X-T2, I'm glad you LOVE it...
I do really like to use "vintage" lenses on my digital camera because of this. That collar... i really can't imagine why it was ever a good idea to get rid of it.
I have been using the xt-2 and you have nailed it, I realise it makes me enjoy photography and not just think about menus. I have the usual Fuji lens but recently tried the Samyang 12mm on the Fuji, it is lovely, if you have an opportunity try one. Feels like a new era of photography has come to me. Love the channel, learnt so much from you. Stephen
Amen brother! I bet there`s quite a few digital camera design engineers at the competing manufacturers looking for jobs due to their indulgence in excessive nonsense! Thank you Fujifilm for bringing back simplicity with style!!!
This is exactly why i gravitated to fuji the past 2 years, i purchased the x100T and fell in love, it made photography so much fun. I recently purchased the Fuji X-T2 and it's a really fun experience to make my personal work with. I do still use a canon set up for my 9-5 Photography job but when i want to have fun and make my own images i have fully committed to Fuji.
When you had the F3 in your hand, I was like wow, the X-T2 looks great. Then I realized it was the Nikon, which I had and loved. What I liked about the F3 (as well as the X-T2 to some degree) is the way they look and feel. The aesthetics give the process a heightened feeling that makes me want to use it and take the images more seriously. "The Medium Is The Message," they say.
Love the way Fuji does things. Love the controls, especially having aperture on the lens. I just wish all lenses had marked aperture rings
First of all: I love your channel! It very inspiring for me. I viewed this video several times over the last months and have to say that I totally agree with your opions. Being a professional photographer in the 80's and 90's (then switching to the moving pictures) I learned my buisness with "old fashioned" Nikons, Canons, Leicas, Hasselblads and Sinars. The use of these machines was always straight forward and nothing was complicated when you unterstand the basics of lighting, exposure, depth of field and so on. The basic skills of the buisness so to speak. After selling my Leica equipment in 2005 I stepped into the digital market using several different cameras from Canon to Olympus to Panasonic. On one side the color rendition of some of these cameras was very nice and "filmic" other brands produced pictures more to look like video images. After all in fall of 2016 I switched to Fujis new X-T2 and was instantly amazed. No only by this straight forward "user interface" which is for me an absolutly no-brainer in the dailiy use but also by the color renditions of the camera. Even without the built-in film simulations (aka 3D LUTs) the colormetry of the Fuji cameras is much more pleasant than even any Canon camera. Not to speak about any other brand. In addition the quality of the lenses ist really stunning. In the end the qualitiy of the images made with my X-T2 or my beloved X-Pro2 is on the same level as the pictures made with the old M6 and the Elmarits I used.
i brought an XT-1 not long ago. not much difference between the 1 & 2 but they're both amazing! i have used both and the 90mm f/2 is absolutely ridiculous!
Hi Ted, thank you for articulating your thoughts on the X-T2. I've just moved to it from a Sony system and agree. There's a hard to explain immediacy and experience to it that frees me to capture a scene differently.
I'm always impressed with how few edits and cuts you use. Bravo and great review-I've been a digital Fuji user since the x100
I couldn’t agree more on your thoughts and observations. Yep I am an old boy, a pre digital photographer and I have only just discovered the Fuji and love the ‘retro’ feel because it puts me easily back in touch with the control of my image taking. Thanks for the video.
