This video is a Lowepro Freeline 350AW BP user review, find out what I like about the bag, and what fuji gear you can put in it. Watch me on a job with the bag and see how practical and adaptable this it is. Discover key features of the bag and the things I am not so sure about. Is this the ideal camera backpack for you?, is this the best all around backpack you can buy?
150-600mm & 200mm f2
Very beautiful. XF 200mm I guess.
Wonderful,...just wonderful!
Beautiful pictures and video samples! Are you filming in 4KHQ when not in 120p? Which color profile or is if F-log? Thank you.
Isn't it easier to just use a FF camera for telephoto work? I can understand using medium frame cameras for that in the old days since resolution was limited by grain size on the film, meaning that you wanted the largest negative practical, but in the digital era that is not a valid argument any more.
Hi Tugela thanks for the comment. yes it is easier in some ways. But sometimes easier is not the reason to dismiss new possibilities, now that medium format is so much faster than it used to be and less bulky, it makes it appealing to some wildlife photographers who just want the best image quality possible for certain projects and situations. I myself would certainly like to challenge myself on this system for wildlife photography a longer period of time just to see what’s possible 😀🤪 but that’s just me I like and thrive on a fresh challenge. Hope that makes sense? Kind regards Anthony
Glory be to God, forever and ever, Amen.
Another awesome video!! I really appreciate your video graphic style and tribute to the creator. Would love to see a series like this through the Hebrides.
Lovely footage Anthony!
i'm not a wildlife photographer but i do love nature, enjoyed every bit of this video. so calming. it also made me curious about getting into wildlife photography. awesome video!
Excellent eye
Wonderful work Anthony! I was searching for Fujifilm auto focus tips and stumbled upon this video, happy I found it! I noticed you already answered most of the focusing questions from other commenters. I use an XT3 with the 150-600mm and I was wondering what your ISO tolerance range is? When do you think 6400-12800 ISO is best to use on the XT3 with the smaller 26.1MP sensor? I've had some decent results at 6400 but it's been inconsistent for me. Any insight would be appreciated because it looks like you've been shooting on Fuji for many years now, I only started in 2020!
Magnificent! 👌
Great work brother!
A master piece! So finally we can do serious wide life work with Fuji stuff 😉 You brilliantly demonstrated that skills and patience is what you need to get fantastic results. As hobbyist, I’m using a X-H2 (for the crop factor - really appreciated with small birds ) and the 150/600. Sometimes, I miss the X-H2s for birds in flight…
I just love my GFX100ii
Phantastic!
The new Fujinon 500mm 5.6 are compact and Light weight, but all other GF Lenses are not compact and Light weight !
At 1:37 you mention some Lens elements, where do you find that information !!!?
Hi I think I may have made an error with that info I think that the Fuji presentation was referring to the filter options rather than the Len’s elements. My bad. 👍
Have you experienced buffer overflow after burst?
Hi Adam I didn’t push it too hard or do a controlled test on the buffer but it did fairly well when tracking a Rhino for around 20 shots.
A very nice review. As the owner of a GFX 100s, I’m not sure there is enough here for me to upgrade, but it’s tempting. Even the improved EVF and faster operational speed (and possible improvement to IBIS) might be enough. And although it’s a small change, I’m also very glad to see Fujifilm put an Arca Swiss compatible foot on their new GF 500mm lens. I have the (outstanding) GF 250mm lens and it is disappointing that this lens lacks the Arca Swiss foot.
Did try to find your Video again because of the GF 500mm - turned out you wrote GFX 500 in your title. Maybe you could change that. I‘m afraid the current title could work against you. Cheers!
Thanks for the heads up just changed it
Just as with the GFX100 II it is not a new sensor. Just some software smoke and mirrors. New cpu, evf and buffer are legit though if you want to spend the money. The cost to upgrade from 100S doesnt make sense for people who already own that body.
Hello! Thank you for the great video! 😄I am also very interested in the Fuji GFX system and this combination is really great!😀😀Thank You very much😃 👍Greetings Matthias👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀
Glad it was helpful!👍
Thank you for this video . How was it with the 1.4x telecast converter ?
Hi David thanks for the comments. The 1.4xtc it seemed fine although I didn’t use it enough to give a fair assessment. Kind regards Anthony
I hope someone compares this to the Leica SL3.
It’s not comparable different camera systems
Glad you were able to get your hands on the new GFX and the 500. I think it's really good that FUJI is expanding its range of lenses more and more. The pictures you were able to show were really great to see. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! Greetings
Thank you for your contribution Anthony, it has been a while since you put up a video. But as always it was nice to watch. I must also say that it is great to hear the voice of sanity in the camera world. The frames per second race is getting a bit out of control I think. The fastest cameras only a few years ago were 12 frames per second and that actually ensured that you as the photographer had to work on your skill and techniques. Anyway thanks again and take care.
Would you find the focal length limiting for your typical outings or does the ability to crop into the 100MP photos make up for the shorter effective focal length with quality holding up?
Hi, I think if I had the 1.4x tc as well as the cropping room I would be okay for most of the time, but sometimes a little short for small birds. 👍
What do you think is better for wildlife x-t5 or this one?
I think he gaves you the answer in the video : c1-c7 customs modes that allow you to change the all set-up in less than 1 second (the X-T5 can’t do it). And also the possibility to assign the af mode selection to a front button, impossible with a switch button.
Hi Anthony.. its beautiful video.. but please make it short.. please cut some videos which are long like bird flying.. single clip is fine.. rest everything is awesome
So enjoyed this video! Is there any chance you could go through your AF, settings? I’m have an XT3 and XT5 and mainly use the XF 100-400 for wildlife. But I really struggle to get sharp shots of birds in flight. 😢 I’ve used various custom modes, AF settings and the new ‘Bird’ detect seems almost useless on XT5. I’ve used many, many combinations now and whatever shutter speed the cameras will do…and I’m soooo frustrated with it. For the record, I had my first ‘proper’ 35mm SLR camera 40years ago, so I’m no novice. But I must admit I’ve only gotten more interested in bird photography these last three years. Hope you can help with perhaps a detailed video. Regards, Dazza. 🇬🇧
Hi Dazza thanks for the message I don’t have enough spare time unfortunately to make a video on this subject (I have to carefully choose what videos I am willing to spend time making) Matthieu Gasquet has a comprehensive video on CZcams XH2vs XH2s though. I generally use zone focus plus bird eye detect, and either continuous mode 2 or I tweak my own continuous modes. Shutter speed usually 2500/S or above and using f8 when using my 150-600mm. It does struggle with complicated backgrounds but does well against the sky or distant background. 👍
@@anthonyhurren5613 - Thanks very much for your reply buddy. Yes, this is what I’m experiencing, focus being pulled to background rather than staying with the bird!🦅 It’s so frustrating. I generally use Zone and Mode 2, but in frustration I switch about trying to find that bit extra. I have set-up a custom setting that was recommended by another CZcamsr on his channel, but it really doesn’t seem to get any better keeper rates. I find the bird eye detect disappointing even for smaller birds on trees etc, preferring a small single box in continuous directly on the eye gives me far better consistency, but that is next to impossible for birds in flight obviously! Thanks for your time, I will endeavour to get better and work on technique. 🙏 Regards, Dazza. 🇬🇧
Outstanding sir! God bless.
Thank you kindly!
Just saw your amazing videos today, can you make a video on your setting for still/video as well as custom setting (C1 to C7), thank you
Hi Jerry I won’t have time to make any videos for the next month or so unfortunately, too busy with freelance work and other priorities. Thanks for the feedback though 👍🙏
A masterpiece of work , not a fuji user [olympus] but loved this video,well done anthony

Too many breathtaking moments to note here but man, what an excellent piece! Amazing work, I hope it opened many doors for you - but it is enough on it's own, what an incredible piece of art!
Thank you very much!🙏
Excellent Video :)
Thank you very much!
Hey Anthony, thanks for sharing this Masterpiece. I'm thrilled with the great pictures the set-up took, no matter what time of day or season. it's a lot of fun to watch this video with all the great shots. i hope you're doing well and that we'll see a new video from you soon. best regards.
Many Thanks for your kind comments🙏
Loved the film! Generally, what scenes were shot with which camera?
Thanks Marco! 👍 Filming was all done on the XH2s except the wide angle clips the low light clips with the deer at sunrise and my to camera review which was the XH2 so I could use 8K and crop to edit jump cuts 👍
Fantastic video! I really enjoyed your nature and wildlife video (and photographs) . You really do beautiful work, both in the photography and the editing. I also liked your thoughts on the gear you were using- much more practical and informative than most other reviews I have seen. You did a great job here. The video goes to show what someone can do when they know their equipment and know how to use it. Thanks so much for sharing this, definitely one of the best nature photography videos I have seen. Keep up the great work!!
Thanks for your kind comments 👍🙏
Hi Anthony ! You just made a sale for Fuji, I have been looking for nice long lens for my X-T5 and the 150-600 is going to be the one. I really liked your video and will watch it few more times for sure, thank you very much for sharing your beautiful video.
Great work Anthony, really nice. This is art. Im between stacked or high res sensor. Do you get too many rolling shutter with XH2 on electronic shutter for birds in flight or its ok? Tyvm
Forget the xh2 for moving birds if you are photography minded. Go for the h2s. It's a much better wildlife option. Better choose the h2 for landscape, portrait, or still videos, though in that case, I would actually look elsewhere entirely (ff). The xh2s is a bargain for its features which is why it is a valid choice.
Hi LiquidCylinders, I choose the XH2s generally for birds in flight but sometimes I choose the XH2 with my 200mm F2 + 1.4TC for Owls as I can have cropping room for the shorter focal length lens, but I always use mechanical shutter with the XH2 to avoid rolling shutter, its fine with these larger slower birds but obviously you are limited to 15 FPS and its not blackout free like the XH2s with its 40FPS. I often have the XH2s with my 150-600mm attached and my XH2 with my 200mm F2 when waiting for wildlife in camouflage to be ready for either scenario for a bird or a larger mammal. But I would choose the XH2s if I only had one choice, for that stacked sensor speed and the 4K 120p video. Hopefully the next generation of stacked sensors for the XH2s will have more resolution. Kind regards Anthony
Thank you for your wonderful video. I enjoyed it all 🙂
Glad you enjoyed it! 👍🙏
What do you think of the weather sealing of these cameras? You do obviously shoot a lot in the outdoors. Have a X-H2S that behaves very odd in cold weather (stuck buttons, AF not working). Trying to figure out if it is a bad copy or a general problem of these cameras. Had so far never a problem with Fujis X-T line cameras in sometimes extrem weather conditions.
Hi Stephan it’s a good question and very hard to measure. I have had my ones pretty wet especially recently everything seems ok so far, but I haven’t been in sub zero temperatures.
Hi, I have a very specific question and would like your advice. I have done extensive research but I am still confused. Are the 7 Q Button setups overlapped with the 7 Custom Modes (C1-C7)? What are their differences? What is the point to set 2 sets of custom settings? When I use my XT-4, I set the Q Buttons. Now, I have two choices namely Q Modes and 7 Custom Modes on my XH2s. Thus, I am now confused. Can I share your experience, please.
Hi when you say 7Q buttons set up did you mean 7 custom buttons? Kind regards Anthony
What a wonderful video!
Beautiful video
Thank you for this beautiful film, and for your praises to our Creator! I recognised your environs immediately, having spent some fondly remembered times living and working in SE of England for various periods during the late 80s and into the early 2000s - I consider England to be one of my two "2nd homes", the other one being Japan. Also, I appreciated the level of detail you went into afterwards explaining your techniques and equipment for shooting the stills and video, very helpful to me and I expect to many others.
Thanks 🙏
Amazing sir
Wonderful video and images. Colors and level of detail are amazing.
