That's great! I'm glad I was able to help. Fuji cameras definitely aren't the most user-friendly, but they just have a feel to them that feels right. I still have a lot to learn about the X-T50 myself. Keep sticking with it 💪🏿

Thank you 🙏🏿 You should definitely get a standing desk! They're awesome!

Yeah, the 3D printer has been fun but I highly recommend the treadmill. I was walking (not fast) and editing this video at the same time lol

Haha, you know the itis kicks in after lunch 😂...but it is a pretty good treadmill.

Thank you🙏🏿

Yeah, I hear you for sure. I don't really do much editing in post with the X-T50. I do enough of that with my Sony cameras. The simulations and recipes are DEFINITELY enough to produce good quality images with character straight out of camera. As long as you're nailing exposure, focus, and composition you should be good.

@@BrayGrayy thanks for the reply I greatly appreciate it. Also thank you for walking through the steps of syncing the camera with your phone, its a simple process but always good to see something like that when most other videos I find don’t show aspects of the functionality like that.

🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

Only if you consistently find that there are recipes you want that you can't get with the free version. That being said... the subscription still seems pretty affordable.

@@BrayGrayy yeah $20 for a year isn’t bad at all, especially for the convenience it brings

That's great! Congrats on the new camera and I'm glad this video helped out 🙌🏿

But I guess I can’t complain since I was able to find an x-t5 for an amazing price. Great to see someone from SD.

Haha, yeah I was on that waitlist for the X100vi too but when I found out the X-T50 was smaller and had the same capabilities I pivoted hard lol! The X-T5 is a great camera. I just couldn't justify keeping it because it feels so similar to my Sony A7C2

@@BrayGrayy that’s my reason for buying it.I was getting the x-h2 originally but I take my camera to hikes a lot so I needed something lighter, the xt-50 seems less capable for what I want then the x-t5 so yeah all great choices tho!

Thanks, will do! 💪🏿

Thank you! 🙏🏿

Yeah, I usually use the built-in editor on my phone (OnePlus Open), Snapseed, or Lightroom mobile

@@BrayGrayy Okay thought there was a Fuiji app for editing. Thanks.

@@Impostertot I think there is (Fuji Raw Studio), but it's desktop only if I'm not mistaken

Thanks! I've honestly only used the X-T50 and X-T5, but I know they both have the same imaging capabilities as the X100vi. If compactness is your main want, the X-T50 is your best bet. I've heard some say they like the sensor better on the X-T3/30ii, but I haven't had any complaints about the newer 40mp one. As someone who also uses a Sony A74 and A7C2, the X-T50 definitely feels less "pro" but it's a fun little EDC camera.

@@BrayGrayy It will be either the X100vi, which seems like harder to get than winning the lottery or the XT-50 with one or two primes. I won't go for a XT-5, which is too close to my Zf in weight and size. Thanks Braylan!

@@Gualdo007I have both xt30 xt5 xt50 xh2 i shot only on Fuji and tbh I don’t see much of a difference between the sensors only when you decide to crop a image then yes but xt50 is a good well built camera I recommend to everyone is your not able to get your hands on a x100vi also your always able to change your lens and if you get the xt50 try to get the 27mm pancake lens that’s how I use it fits in my pockets from pants to jackets it’s a great EDC

No problem. I hope it was helpful 🙏🏿

Thanks🙏🏿 I like your work as well.

Haha, thank you! 🙏🏿

Make sure you're not switched to auto on the shutter speed dial. Then you should see the dynamic range setting

@@BrayGrayy thank you

I dont think that its thing of the past just def needs more customizability.

@@frmtheden I think it's one and done. The ceiling is capped on it. Think about it, you can only have 6 simulations up there...

@@TopshelfJunior​​⁠but I think with future iterations and possible saves to it, I don’t think on average anyone needs much more. I definitely don’t need an ISO dial I’m so used as the front command being my iso that it works perfectly. I’ve found myself getting pictures straight out of camera more from using Film Sims then exploring on post in LR not to mention LR doesn’t have the in camera presets option only Capture One and LR classic so having them mobile saves me a lot of time

Had the S9 been in the style of a Fuji I would have been tempted. Panasonic missed a trick using PASM. A retro S9 would be very tempting due to LUTS, as a long time recipe user I find the adjustments available a bit limiting on a Fuji.

That's great! I'm glad this video was helpful. Thanks for watching 🙏🏿

@@BrayGrayy How did you remap the button by the viewfinder? Been looking through the menu and can't track it down

I'm sorry that happened to you. I hope you can swap it out for another one.

@@BrayGrayy I sent it back. I'm getting a full refund. It was sealed but bought from eBay. Money back guarantee. It scared me from trying again with the open. I have a OnePlus Nord n30 so I figured it was a good company but I got a bad phone. I think I might try the pixel fold or wait for the fold 2

Thanks! Hmm, I'm not sure why the movie mode would be greyed out. I actually haven't used video on the X-T50 yet

Are you referring to the custom setting selector for recipes? If so, the setting doesn't work if you're shooting full auto

@@BrayGrayy explain it a little more dummy way for me cause I thought I was shooting manual, I’m used to Sony that’s my first FujiFilm camera

@@xclusive_himself I have the same Problem, He is talking about the first step in 3:55 where you select Film Simulation OFF, I don't have the off option

I don't get the off option too, He is talking about the first step in 3:55 where you selected off in that option

@@marintiasinaimercadoascenc7072 Ah, I think I understand now. If you haven't set ANY custom settings (meaning C1-C7 haven't been set), you won't see it because it's already starting from the neutral point. The 'off' or 'nothing selected' will show up once you've programmed your first custom setting.

Thank you!! That's a good idea 🤔

Thank you 🙏🏿 I'm glad you got some some value from this video. I'm fairly new to Fuji as well, so I'm still learning too

Thank you 🙏🏿 The lens in the video is the Fuji 16mm f2.8, but if you want a more compact setup I also have the Fuji 27mm f2.8 or the Voigtlander 27mm f2 (manual focus). Lastly, I have the Viltrox 56mm f1.4 for some distance and portraits

@@BrayGrayy Thanks so much for your prompt reply. that's very kind of you. A warm hello from Emilia Romagnia Italy

If you care more about photography than video, go with the X-T50.... but the X-T50 also has some really good video features as well.

Haha, you don't have a Fuji camera... yet 😏

@@BrayGrayy You're not wrong! hahaha

I'm glad you think so! Thanks for watching 🙏🏿

No, thank you! 🙏🏿

I haven't had any issues with the battery life

@@BrayGrayy does you knew how lonmg does its last your battery? idont know because its my first time using camera and its seem drain fast!

@@chaitong6264 In my last vid, I shot at the Japanese garden for well over an hour in the hot sun and I still had a little battery life to spare. I imagine if you shoot in cooler environments it should last longer. Maybe you just got a bad battery. That's happened to me before with my Sony cameras

You may have any or all of BT, WiFi, and Phone Location Data sync enabled which could be additional drain on your battery life. Great vid @BrayGray! Just got the X-T50, my first Fuji camera. Can I ask what soft shutter button you have on?

@@d3vz3r0 Thank you and congrats on getting your first Fuj! This is the shutter button I'm using a.co/d/08HTetwT

Ah, thanks for the info! I hadn't heard of Fuji X Raw Studio. I might give it a go and try to add my own custom recipes.

@@BrayGrayy Keep your expectations low, it's awful to use!

Thanks for watching! 🙏🏿

That's awesome! I'm glad this video was helpful 🙌🏿 Welcome to the Fuji family and I hope you enjoy your X-T50!

Thank you 🙏🏿

Thank you! I'm really enjoying the X-T50. I actually HAVEN'T seen this recipe hack! I'll have to check it out and give it a try 🙌🏿

You can find them on Amazon. I got a 2 pack for like $11

@@BrayGrayy thanks a lot. Possible to share the amazon link to yours here?

Thanks! That lens is the Fuji 16mm f2.8

@@BrayGrayy awesome. what is your opinion of the 16mm f2.8 vs the kit lens xf 16-50 f2.8-4.8

It all depends on how bad you want IBIS and more megapixels. Those were important to me, so I went with the X-T50

get the xt50 its a better platform you can grow into more and even do some professional work with it

IMO, the film simulation dial works best with the Auto Mode. Let me explain why: The biggest problem with using recipes is that they don't work for every scenario, especially those with strong characteristic, so I have to spend a lot of time changing the settings. As a comparison, the Auto Mode can automatically adjust settings very well, but the photos taken are always boring. The film simulation dial changes that, it really brings a lot of fun to the Auto Mode. Even with a specific scene chosen, I can still get different styles of photos by changing the film simulation. I used to own an X-T20 but never liked its Auto Mode. But this X-T50 is different. I think it changed the way I shoot a little bit in a good way. If you’re a casual photographer like me, try to rent an X-T50 and play it around. I think it makes photography more relaxing and enjoyable.

@@JackCl34232 Interesting 🤔 I might do a vid about just using auto mode

Nope. Just the battery and a charging cable

Thank you! I figured everyone knew the specs already, so I'd focus on the experience of using it.

Nice! I used to have the ZV-1 as well and totally agree with your take on the ergonomics and photo quality. I haven't really used the video on the X-T50 yet, but it definitely seems like it has some nice video features from just poking around in the settings. Also that sounds like a pretty good range of lenses for your use cases. I have the 16mm Fuji (24mm full frame equivalent) and I definitely recommend it if you're looking to go on the wider end of your preferred range.

Looks like they're having a sale! www.oneplus.com/us/oneplus-open

🤣🤣🤣

Oh wow, thank you! I appreciate it 🙏🏿
