And yes - “my images may be garbage but I’m having fun” is basically my photography motto. I also love taking pictures of buildings and walls and junk piles and sticker-covered signs and all that and I do just have fun.

Love this video! Your passion and enthusiasm here is contagious and inspiring. I’m very happy for you

#1 fave channel right here. Austin looks super rad. Thanks for showing us around!

Recently sold my second X100V again after falling in love with 28mm, Ricoh GRiii has been my current daily carry 👌🏻

I’ve owned the X pro 3 for a little over a year and it is the most inspiring camera to use for me. I use it with auto focus lenses and cheap manual focus lenses. With film simulations that I adjust to my liking I feel like I get the looks and the results that I’m looking for. It is a great camera. 📸🔥 I’ve never used the X-E4. Street photography is my jam

I totally agree on having fun, sometimes I feel like my entire day of shooting was for naught but I have so much fun just taking the pictures that the end results doesn't matter in the end.

I love the XPro series. I shot with the XPro2 from launch until picking up the XPro3 shortly after it launched. I'm the straight weirdo that uses it full time for commercial work. I tether in the studio for my fashion work, then shoot product photography, then business commercial work, and then use the same damn camera for street, and family photos. No other camera made me happy to shoot for my business AND my personal family images. It's DEFINITELY NOT a way of working I would recommend for everyone, but if it's for you, then you'll know it, and you'll be so incredibly happy with this little damn creative beast. The 35 1.4 only comes off when it absolutely has to for a particular shot. And when the job requires it, I just rent the GFX for that level of clinical output. Win win. Oh and a big Texas welcome Cam!

I just started bringing my X100F around with me a lot more and love it

I just got a X100v and it's so much fun:) Loving it. I put the iso and SS in auto and just rip away.

Thank you for your honesty! I wish more people would speak about the little things like the viewfinder comparison since that makes a camera more useable for some of us!

Lucky enough to have two of those cameras. The 100v is awesome, it just makes you want to take photos and makes you smile at the same time. The pro3, it’s inspiring to use, almost like it’s egging me on to push myself photographically. I feel like it’s hard to take a bad picture with either of these cameras.

I'm an old guy too and used the viewfinder most of the time. Lately I started to use the screen for framing more and I must say that in some occasions my composition actually improved.

I bought a used 'F', and then I bought the 'V' the second I could hold one in my local camera store. I have the wide and tele converters and I only use them for travel content. I've dragged this compact kit through a dozen countries and it is brilliant. The rest of the time, I just see the world through a 35mm lens now. The leaf shutter with fill flash, and the built in physical ND filter makes the X100V one of the greatest cameras I've owned in the past 40 years. My commercial work is 95% video now and I even use the V for 120p B roll. It's a beast.

Man, you're an amazing photographer. The photos that you showed in this video were stunning!

I absolutely love my x100F. It makes me want to take photos and it’s fun.

Great video! Looks like you had fun making it and sometimes that all that matters. I was hoping you got some shots of the Buick.

I get what you mean about the X-E4. The whole X-Pro shooting experience just feels “right” to me. Feels great in the hands. Feels great when held up to the eye. I had an X-E3 and X-Pro1 and often preferred picking up the X-Pro1 even though it was older and slower. So I finally replaced the X-E3 with an X-Pro2 and I love it. I still like the idea of having something much smaller than an X-Pro, so I picked up an X-M1. I don’t have the “which similar camera should I carry?” problem now as the X-M1’s only redeeming quality is its size (truly pocketable, closest to a compact point and shoot but I can still swap lenses).

Great vibe! Now I want to see more of Austin.

Loved this. Like we were just chillin and I have the same sentiment. I have the xt4, xt3, xe4. Just sold the xt2 and I’m still thinking about this xpro3. It’s a problem. Lol

I’m really tempted to buy an X100V. Such a beautiful camera…

Thanks for the videos man, love any content you put out honestly. I just rented the xt4 and I used it with my M mount Voigtlander 35mm 1.2iii, and loooved the experience. So easy to manual focus and all that. Ive been torn on the xe4, xt4, h2s and x100v. I am also needing a hybrid for simple video with 4k60 (i just use the Komodo for pro video and the gfx100s for pro photo) so I need that portable tiny hybrid. i just want an x100v with interchangeable lenses, or just suck it up and get the xt4/h2s. I dont think the size difference is thaaat crazy.

Enjoyed your take on the X Pro3.😎

fuji sensors are just 🤤 so good, hope 60k comes soon

I love the car photos! Man, not garbage at all. Opens my eyes to just shoot more

Got an X100v at the start of the summer and I’m loving it. I’d love to know your favorite full profiles or film sims that you shoot with.

Yes please, do a fashion shoot with the EX-4

I've been looking at the XE4 as a compact travel camera. The viewfinder certainly isn't great though.

The X100V is so much fun to shoot. It gets a lot of strangers asking me about it too 😅

Great content! Love the x100v. What video camera was used, a lot of focus breathing ?

Shot a wedding this weekend. Had the xpro3 as my main camera & x100v as my secondary. Ended up using the x100v for most of the shots.

Brother you got to get the Tele Conversion Lens for the x100v! Screws on regular lens and just adds versatility! I slap it on all the time when I need a closer reach. Solid quality too

hey 'old man', I'm with you on the viewfinder. I have my touch screen to change settings, so it's usually facing out, but it drives me nuts when my nose hits it. My first choice is always the viewfinder. I guess that because the young'uns are coming from cell phone cameras, a screen is what they grew up on.

First off I’m really glad I came across your channel!! And who wouldn’t love a free giveaway 😎

At one point you said something like “this isn’t my usual style, go check…”, dude this was just a great video to watch you having fun, and the on the fly creative process when shooting the car lot. Keep these up

Cropping options are cool. I would like crop line in the view finder. That would be even more helpful!

I’ve been subscribed for years my man. I’d be way too stoked if I won your xpro1. 😍

Nice shoots, love your videoes.

Every since I got my x100f years ago I’ve wanted 4:5 and 4:3 directly in camera, considering their entire brand is built on having the best straight out of camera jpgs. Really hope they give us that with the xpro4 in the future. Nice video.

Just discovered your channel. Love the content.

Will you consider using the new XH2 40 mg camera ?

yeah! back to fuji again!

„Be brave! Close down the aperture“ 👍 And: 4:3 in X100V!

Beautiful video grade! What inspired your move to Austin? Your music or the photography... or, just creativity period? I sold my beloved GRiii in lieu of the X100V and F. I just needed the immersiveness of a viewfinder. I also have the X-T3 and I have everything I need. Feel inspired by these cameras each and every day. Love your work.

My first camera was a Nikon D70 lol then I got the original x100 , then I switched to Sony a6000 , got bored of that after a year went back to .Fuji Xt20 , following the Xt2, after that I went back for the 100v, now I’m rolling with that and xh1 . I love Fuji . Hoping this Xh2 will be a complete different ball game . Il be keeping the 100v for a long time tho ;)

I have the XPRO 3 and really like it.

I had the same dilema when I wanted to try something different after 17 years with 4/3 cameras. I trying to pick between those two cameras. I got the 100v a few weeks ago and it's a magical camera. Between that and my em5 mark 3 with a 50mm 1.4 leica it's a fantastic combo that you can put in a tiny bag

can you review the new Hasselblad X2D and compare it to your fujifilm medium format cameras? love the videos.

I would like you to compare them with the fuji x-h2s

I'd love to try a Fuji one day. Even thinking of giving my A7Riii away for a xpro3 or a x100v. Is it worth it? 😮

Love your stuff. Please come to NYC we can do some fashion and street :) ... love your vids..

Hey man. Do you ever use zcam anymore? Just curious.

Hey welcome to Austin!

I live the Xpro1!!

The x100v is a tremendous camera, and I still regret not getting it when I could :-)

1:39 I’ll buy it! Make it happen compadre!

Love hearing you think out loud here! You mentioned, then pulled out that 56mm f1.2. My daughter's friend asked if I would shoot her HS grad photos. I was nervous that my 18-55 wouldn't be good enough so I rented the 56mm. OMG! That lens is sooo good. Now I have a question. I'd like to get more into portraits, fashion shots, maybe kid events. So, been doing research. Finally, here's the question: Would you prefer the 56mm or the 90 f2? Going to have to sell some stuff to fund a lens!! LoL! My camera is the XT-3 btw.... Thanks again for a fun video. Love your stuff.

x100v is probably the best side piece to have on you at all times

you have to, have to, have to! have an aperture ring on any lens you put on the XE4, its missing too many dials to go without it.

side question; what's your opinion on the soft shutter release? does it really spoil the shutter button?

How do we joinnnnn the giveawayyyy Edit / also the xpro2 is a great upgrade over the 1 if you want to keep the screen especially

Sir where did you get your stripped pants from?

if only fujifilm would add the left sided connection ports and make the x100 series tether-able. Would be the perfect studio camera.

Love the style of your photos. I would like to win an Capture One Lesson or maybe Lightroom… that would be nice 👌

Keep the Xpro1. No need to lose the awesome xtrans sensor

I want this camera so bad!

Hope I will own one

Was just in Austin today. I should have taken more photos :((((

I would like to see how you edit your shots from trips like this

Dude, I didn't quite get it ... don't you usually do more like, fashion stuff?

What filter you used for the photos

0:30 Seeing the world outside of the frame is what you get in a rangefinder, so nothing wrong with that in my opinion. Looking at the screen is under rated from one old school guy to another, embrace the technology. Now-a-days, putting the camera to your eye can garner a bad reaction in the street. I hope to get a small camera that I can shoot just like everyone is using their phones (think GRIII orX100V) - you get less negative response during street photos IMHO.

More fuji videos brotha!!! 🤣👍🏻

Fashion shoot with xpro 3 perhaps ?

I thought you sold your x100v ?

Like Gremlins, Fujis also multiply... well done!

I'm an old fart too who started with film SLRs and still shoots a lot with optical viewfinders, but that back screen on the X-Pro 3 was a dealbreaker for me. To me it felt like Fuji purposefully made the screen inconvenient for anyone who didn't want to pretend to be shooting film on a Leica. I do see the appeal for certain people though, I'm just not one of them.

Had both. Sold the X100V.

Slowly binging every video…

Waiting for the giveaway

Honestly I think it’s a shame Fuji chooses not to go full frame. They have more soul than the competitors and the following to back it up. It would be awesome to take the guess work out of lens selections and take full advantage of vintage glass more so than Sony. Love the heck out of their system though.

& in Los Angeles, you might get mugged with those grear with you for street photography

Anyone else notice he has his lens cap on in the thumbnail...😂

ADHD - right on! Like following a mosquito on a beach bum fest.

My x pro 3 sleeps between me and my wife.

Do you shoot with a portra 400 SD card?... Haha "Kids, shoot digital and pretend it's a film camera so you can be a real photographer".

je ne comprend pas toutes cette vulgarité !… onts peux quand meme être respectueux pour ceux qui écoute ….! enfin cest la dernière fois pour moi…bye

You are Old? LMAO You were probably 10 years old, if even, when I was shooting Pentax 6X7 and Mamiya 6X7. I am guessing you are about 30

Too much talking.

The way I see it, To Save Cash, after having gone down the following path is: buy it now, try it, convince yourself if you like it or not, and sell it. Get an x100f or v and when the XPro-4 comes out, you can buy an XPro-3 that someone’s selling frantically, for cheaper😂😂 The XPro-4 is coming and I’m certain it must be sooner than later. Based off market statistics, I think the price of the XPro-3 will fall and the X100v should stay sky-high. If they’re the same price right now, you can buy the XPro3 and sell it after you’ve experienced it; having the equal amount, buy the x100v and wait until the XPro-4! The x100v will stay just as expensive. It's thought to be the best all-around and you won’t lose money; all while having tried and know what the XPro line of cameras is like. *All of this having been said by a college student, it’s how I personally am managing my limited amount of funds. This will probably not mean anything to someone that has everything figured out, has money, and is waiting for the XPro-4. I just wanted to share my thoughts from the budgeted living point of view, where anything and everything is through third-party ofc.. Facebook Marketplace & Offerup. Maybe it could help someone dreaming to get an XPro For those, some friendly advice: Do your research and check everything before buying Anything.
