Canon has got really nice files in general, but the highlights and noise are their weakpoint indeed. The shadows became blue/purple when I lifted them at higher ISO’s. Those were the main things that were improved when I went from my old APS-C Canon DSLR to Fuji. (Of course, the current Canon mirrorless cameras would do better, but still some of these weaknesses seem to be still present.)

Yeah Canon hasn’t done too well with their Noise and DR - even with their Cinema line

I also have a 5D Mark III and I’m also thinking about switching to Fujifilm. The X-Pro 3 or X-H2 are gravitating to me the most, but the X Summit is right around the corner, and I’m hoping for some huge camera body announcements

​@@PurpleStormProductionsx-s20 is ❤️

no regret,hmm areyou sure?. in my opinion Canon 5d series are hard to beat even in modern cameras.

Thanks man! This means a lot. I try to learn from every video, hope you enjoy the journey!

@@TimoVarakas yeah I hear you. I try to get better with every video myself.

I was looking at the X-T4 at first. One thing I forgot to mention was I need a flip screen for some of my videos and the X-T4 has one. But there's so much similarity with the X-H2 cams to the canon cams that the transition felt easier.

Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed watching 🤙

or buy a xh2s

Thanks mate! Will test it out! Yeah not the US. I'm located in Finland 😄

@@TimoVarakas Welcome to NATO! Stay safe my friend, great videos!! 🙂👍

@@EdwardMartinsPhotography thanks mate! Will do!

Lol depends where in the USA.

@@morvegil The COOP in Boise Idaho has a decent Almond Croissant as does La Panier on the Seattle waterfront. Only 2 places I can recommend in a 600 mile radius... I'm sure there might 2-3 more, but otherwise it's a pretty barren wasteland compared to Europe where most every small town has a decent bakery. Might be where I live though, I know it was better when I lived in NY... but there were a lot of other basic survival issues there. 🙂

Sorry! 😅😂 but glad it you watched it to the end! Thank you!

Seriously, same here ! Canon has some good colors too, and larger sensor for dark situations... BTW I shoot X T4 I guess it's like we always want to think the other one might be better I love my X T4 but keep thinking Canon or Sony

@@PhilipDSouza there's no wrong solution, it's just about figuring out what fits you the best, and you can't figure it out unless you try different brands

What makes you love the Z system?

@@BTMovieSecondChannel the Feeling of the camera (superb ergonomics), Nikon colors, Lens Selection, Update Policy (thats why i dont bought into Sony) on and on

@@RTReview. nice! What did you prefer over the Fuji bodies?

@@BTMovieSecondChannel The grip (coming from a xt3 to a z6 ii) is much better, the camera Overall feels more Solid. I also feel safer using it in Rain/snow etc.

@@RTReview. ah yeah! I went from the X-T3 to the X-H2S. I think it is a similar increase in grip and sturdiness and I like the feel of it for professional work (and even for leisure time)!

Wow mate! Thank you! There's some pretty bad ones in there too, but glad you enjoyed them!! 🙌

@Timo Varakas we learn the most from bad videos! I love the growth that your channel shows! I hope to visit Finland in the near future! It looks beautiful from your videos

But the Z9 seems like a BIG upgrade over the XH2S. Full frame sensor, more megapixels, RAW video, etc, and Nikon gives good firmware support. Why do you want to return to Fuji?

Are you serious X H2s vs Z9 I can't believe it !

@@amermeleitor I’m also happy with my Z9. It’s a performance beast and is built like a tank. I’m only talking Fujifilm colours here. I personally don’t think anybody does it better than Fuji. I can see how the way I worded it, I made it sound like a regret moving to Nikon. I’d say that Nikon is second behind Fujifilm for colours, and then you have all of the crazy capabilities of the Z9 that in the end made me switch. Not to say the X-H2S isn’t a little beast in its own way. If I could afford to keep both I would.

I have Fuji and Nikon. Prefer Nikon colours.

@@ghas4151 I am with nikon d7200 and doubting about switching to Fuji XS-20 or wait for the Z6III Love the fuji film simulations, very interesting and fun... but worry about DR comparing with Nikon FF ..

At a situation like that I wouldn't go with either. I'd choose something like the X-t4 or X-T5 and choose my lenses wisely. But if they were the only choises, I'd go with the X-H2.

Nah man I kept nothing! I owned canon, I sold everything. Like I said, in the end it was the colours and film sims that made me change. Canon has great colours, but Fuji was a better fit for me 😊

Every time I pick up one of my fujis (I have 3 now) and take a shot, I feel like I’m looking through a window to another life full of color and soul. Hell I sometimes feel like it’s an image of my own soul. Out of professional work when I look at a picture I took I get this nice warm fuzzy feeling and almost every time it makes smile, at least let out a smirk. Sometimes it’s pretty comforting. In professional work like weddings and portrait shoots they’re not technically the best, but after changing I’ve pretty much given up on looking at technicalities and more of what it produces. I know fast and snappy autofocus etc. is something you look for in professional work, but I’ve learned to work with my cameras and around that to get the best results that work for me. Though the X-H2s competes even with full frame cameras like the R5. I won’t tell you to change, that’s up to you, but if you’re looking for soul, it’s there. On the positive side if you feel like it doesn’t work, you can always change back, even if changing is a little of a hassle.

Glad I can help! It's good that you like your mainstream cameras and don't want to try anything else. It's really bad as it can sometimes even hone and improve your skills as a photographer. Maybe you'll be a master of one. Who knows 🙂👍

I have the XH2. Will be getting the XH2s as my Acam, but the XH2 is a wonderful video camera as well. For video though the XH2s is far superior - readout speed, 14bit readout, it’s incredible. That being said though, the XH2 is also phenomenal. Got some stuff on my page if you’re interested in seeing it pushed in terms of video work. I know most use it for photo

The X-H2s is superior. Can't really say how much because I haven't used it that much for stills m, but if you're thinking about getting either one as second body, I'd go with the X-H2s. I like my X-H2 as it's not a big deal for me.

Say what? I'm a mere peasant here who cannot afford an RF lens nor a used L series EF for that matter. I too was a Canon addict and was hard to leave it all behind and took me 1 year of rehab rethinking my choices (used Canon DSLRs from 2007 until 2021), then bought a used Fuji camera. I don't regret leaving Canon behind as I have all the prime lenses I need for way cheaper even new (Viltrox) than the old EF L lenses.

@@SebastianDavidPB Might not make much of a difference if you were using cheap Canon glass but L series is still something special even older EF glass. Not to mention FF has a special look and shallower DoF. Fuji is a whole different look, wether the lenses, the Xtrans sensor, APS-C etc. Apples & oranges..

The non-L RF lenses aren't expensive, but surely you notice that also. Image quality is perfect, but AF is slow and noisy. I did similar change just, from R6 to X-H2S, because of the lenses and over heating when recording video with R6. Even with external recorder.

Nah man. Even though my surname means wealthy/rich, I'm never gonna be do rich to buy a leica. Am happy here even 3-4months later and haven't thought about changing anymore. If something, I want more Fuji cameras.

Money on Bruce? You've not had much close combat experience fighting a larger person then, especially one with a 200 lb advantage who is athletic and also has experience.

They might be 😈 but you're missing the point that everyone is not doing shoots 5 days a week to fund lenses like that and you can do with less. I'm not a multimedia company. I'm just a guy who does gigs and creates, like many others.

He's definitely an inspiration! Did this video like this to get at least 1 comment like this, you made my day! 😂

Thank you for sharing your experience. The camera technology is moving forward so fast that it’s obviously affecting the way we look at these tools. I remember back in the early days of university, early 2000, when we had a photography course and had to buy an SLR. We had two or 3 choices max. I went with the Nikon F60 (I guess that’s the model!) still have it btw. I did not know it was an apsc camera, I didn’t know how different of a system it was and is from Canon, and I didn’t know its pris and cons. It was what I had to buy for the course and what I could afford. Yet, I believe I took some of my most beautiful pictures with it, ever, and straight out of film (not SOOC). When I had a Sony camcorder, a DV cam (forgot the model name, still have it though), I took the most fun vids ever. It was about vlogging before youtube even existed. I didn’t care about frame rates, slow mo, grading… which was not even possible! I just used it in full auto mode. There was a time when we enjoyed using these tools because the options were little and they all offered the same results (to a certain extend). We used them for creating, without the stress of the specs, because owning a photo or video camera was not for everyone. My point is, enjoying using a tool is very important. And that’s one aspect that is becoming dominant today. Cameras are not just about performance and results anymore, they are not just production and studio tools anymore, they’re becoming a personal preference and experience that reflect a personal touch and style. This is why, imo, more and more solo shooters and one man crew videographers are switching to Fujifilm. Which I am considering as well. I am tempted by the fun experience and the film sims every Fujifilm user talks about. Another point, because camera technology is moving forward so fast, investing wisely is important too. Yes fullframe glass is more expensive in general, and there are often newer options that make what we buy already lose their value quickly. So now i find myself in a position where I’d rather invest in many affordable options that would help me explore more than have fewer options for the quality.

But all of them don't have one mount? EF-M, EF, RF, RF-M on canon for example? And in the end after moving from full frame I don't see what the monster is with aps-c.

No they wouldn’t dominate, full frame is full of established competitors battling it out - Sony and Canon reign supreme, with Nikon hanging in there, and a few others like Panasonic. In APS-C, as an overall system Fuji have basically got the market to themselves.

Sony has a one mount, apsc lenses can be used on full frame cameras in apsc mode. Canon fullframe lenses can be used on apsc’s, but not vice versa. At least in the EF-EFS mount. But not even in the RF-RFS mounts if my infos are correct

Nah, better to fish in a small pond by yourself than a crowded one

They don't even need to play with full frame when they have medium format as a budget hasselblad under their belt.

Definitely an inspiration! You made my day man. I can't be PM but I'm always me. Be sure to check out my other videos. Also Pete hasn't made content like this in years so at this point it's free game to try out those methods.
