  • A look back at an innocent time.
    This entire video, including the intro, was shot on the tiny thing. (except the shot of the tiny thing, which was shot with the Z6III).
    Zero video post-processing. Most photos were provia or velvia.
    The trip was to Vancouver and Banff National Park. I can't wait to go back. I made this quick little video because I randomly put on one of our home movies and was like..." what did I film this on? Love it!" Turns out I shot it on the little one mostly with the 10-24mm f4 lens. I didn't care about raw, 4:2:2 10-bit, or even stabilization. And it didn't matter. :)
    Enjoy!
    Omar

    Dude, it’s great to see a UA-cam photographer who understands it’s ultimately about documenting life, love and relationships-family and friends. Gear is fun but it’s just a means to the end. Thanks for sharing the great times you’ve had with your beautiful, close-knit family.

    I recently took my X-T20 to Yellowstone with the family and made some great memories that I will cherish forever. A couple of years ago, I purchased it for $200 as a backup camera because of your channel, and it became my primary camera for my Yellowstone trip. My 9-year-old son was getting into the x-T20, and it was as fun for him as it was for me. Great Times!

    I have always discovered too late that some of my best images are made with "outdated" cameras that I have replaced with "better" upgraded models. A new, expensive camera gets babied and coddled while the older gear suddenly becomes just a tool to be used.

    I did a very similar road trip with my family in 2022 - Calgary, Banff, Jasper, Vancouver and armed with my trusty X-T2, 18-55, Samyang 12, and XC 50-230. Canada is incredibly beautiful and now we too have a wonderful set of memories to look back on. Hope you get to go back - Jasper is a MUST next time if you do.

    I've been a loyal follower of yours since 2019 and I feel like this trip was just yesterday. But still, you captured amazing shots on the XT20 back then and still do today. I keep my XT30 near and dear to me even though I've upgraded since too. It's something about that camera (being my first Fuji and how I found your channel when I purchased it) that will still be my go to camera when I need something to document my life.

    loved this video Omar! This is what most of photography IS for the rest of us. Memories, documenting our lives. I have had GAS... bought some really nice cameras but last year in December I picked up a Fujifilm X10 for a really great price and honestly it has become my favorite camera. I own the x100v but I reach for the x10 90% of the time. So many reasons why, but hey... "It's not about the camera, it's about the memories" - OG =D

    The XT-20 is a capable camera for capturing magic memories and more. It's not the latest camera or the all singing and dancing camera, or the biggest. It's a tool to use in creating memories, an extension of your eye, mixed with your knowledge, and skills.
    Decisive moments can be captured with any camera. Old or new. Long live the XT-20.
    Omar have not been viewing your videos for a while. But there still informative and very enjoyable.
    Cheers Steve

    It's really funny. A lot of people have been criticising FujiFilm cameras lately and I have been with FujiFilm now professionally for about a year and a half and my sales of my work have gone up. My job rate has gone up and my images have improved a hell of a lot under Fiji film yeah sometimes they can be a little tricky to use, but I just love the Fuji film journey and images that they produce and I love your channel Omar. It actually inspired me and I don't care what Camera Use.

    I went on vacation with my wife and daughter here in 2013 - will never forget it, and like you - can't wait to go back (I'm closer, in L.A., but the drive there and back is pretty neat - beats flying IMO). I think the bigger point is that you enjoyed the time and place with family, whether you documented it or not. In other words, if someone had said, "You can go to Vancouver with your family on vacation but aren't allowed to photograph or record video of the trip" you'd have gone anyway. That's a dumb presumption, but the point is, the vacation wasn't rooted in "more photography" - as if life isn't living without taking pictures or video. Of course, all the points made about the unnecessary-ness of top-tier gear are appropriate too, but I would hope that goes without saying at this point.
    Kudos for going to Canada...I'm looking forward to also going to Toronto sometime - my wife's family was from there.
