Hump and Bump got me through some tough nights.
I love your channel! I hope to God that the perfect camera will never be launched as it will kill your channel. ;-)
@Aron J Anderson you mean hump and dump? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
🤣
track 4 tho, the one where they talk about growing up on signal hill. 😪🤛🏻
If you play the track in reverse you can hear the devil's voice pulling for Sony.
If only I could take the features that I like from both cameras and put them all into one... behold, the Soji a-T6430. One can only dream. 😄
Dude 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Damn 🤣🤣🤣
This one
Your dream has come true, it's called the X-T4 :P
Am still looking at X-T30 though, that or X-E4. Great value for the price.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
The name sounds so normal
Both cameras are great. One cannot go wrong with either. Just buy the one you like more and don't look back. It will serve you fine.
I'm curious about the lens selection. Which one has a cheaper price range like fifty nifty?
@@Durio_zibethinus Depends on what you mean.
For 50mm equiv, Fuji has the 35mm f2 and the 35mm f1.4, while Sony has the 35mm f1.8 and the Sigma 30mm f1.4.
For a 50mm focal length lens, Fuji has the 50mm f2 and 56mm f1.2 while Sony has the 50mm f1.8 and the Sigma 56mm f1.4.
@@aloi thanks for your help!
Fuji hands down the better lenses.
Fuji has a better selection of lenses, and allows you to buy cheap (XC) or quality (XF). Sony has more stabilized lenses, but they tend to be pricey for their level of quality. I chose Sony for the smaller 18-135mm zoom for travel. It's a fantastic combo.
I am learning how to talk in front of the camera from Chris. He's just amazing. Really engaging and interesting to watch!
Self confidence, try saying "I've got great hair that every girl loves" and "Jordan envies me" before recording.
@@kian8382 haha ok!
You are absolutely right. Why if not would Amazon pick him as his main salesman for photo gear?¡ These people know their onions.
techline - Linus don’t forget to have fun while doing it too!
Being a bit of a silly goose is never a bad thing (unless you’re at a funeral ;)
In my opinion the most key part of giving a good camera presence, is talking about something you're truly passionate about. Passion is contagious.
Great double-review! This video was so fast and straight to the point. You guys did in 10 mins what other reviewers would take 20 mins to do.
*Intro music and graphic play.* Hey guys welcome to my video channel! Don't forget to like or subscribe. First, let's spend three minutes talking about SQUARESPACE and how they changed my life....
Looking forward to future videos with the pedal bar!
I enjoy watching dpreview reviews, thanks guys.
I went with the X-T30. I love it
Ryan Huddleston congratulations ryan. How is the handling of the camera? Which lenses are you using with it? If you have attached hand grip, does the camera feel heavy?
Me 2 mate. Im a happy man :)
@@neehalkhan5439 the world may never know
@@Aaron-fb6mb damn
Stupid question, but the 4k video limit is just referring to files, right? I can record a scene for an hour and then stitch the files together for a continuous scene?
Do you know what the file size of a 4k 10 bit video is (10 minute segment)?
Bought a XT30 and love it. nice form factor and the controls are right there, no digging two deep to change something simple.
The answer is simple. The choice depends on whether you're a Fuji or Sony guy. Both are just perfect and, believe me, the more we use a camera, the less flaws we find in it, perhaps more in ourselves.
Quang Nguyen not necessarily true. A lot of this are for people moving on to their first mirrorless interchangeable lens camera and looking for something inexpensive. What might drive their purchase is the feature set... not brand necessarily.
@@airdailyx totally agree with you on the case of a mirrorless starter. In my case, just somehow I picked an a6500 back then without much comparison with Fujifilm or Olympus. Although I found many things that my camera has not been good at, it inspired me to shoot everyday and to find a way to get better photos each time. I really loved it more and more along the way. Maybe I was born a Sony guy ^^
@@QuangNguyen-cq2xl Yes. And whatever cam you're using, it's certainly much better than what Bresson or Frank had 60 years ago.
The thing is these cameras are not for starters, these are fairly enthusiast grade models that cost beyond a thousand dollars with basic kit lens. So most buyers will already have a brand they're a bit loyal and comfortable with. So I totally agree with OP. Both are wonderful cameras, and choice is basically dependent on whether you prefer Sony or Fuji.
And the real starter mirrorless camera? Well that's the wonderful Canon M50 at 500 bucks, half these cameras, with an EVF better than both these 1000$ cameras and a better LCD quality and articulation, better wifi/wireless system for instant sharing, and a much cheaper lens selection than any of these companies with the amazing 22 + 32 + 50 trio plus that lovely 11-22!
@@nocommentnoname1111 The camera does not make you a better photographer guy or girl!!!!! It's you sweetheart!
I went with the x-t20 love it. Kit lens is crazy and vintage lenses like the Helios work great
Thank you! much Appreciated for the review between this two camera's. Helpful decision.
Both are great. Had a6000 and replaced it for the Fuji - the form factor and design just makes you want to grab it more often, the film simulations are wonderful and the dials are so fun to use. My 2 cents.
Really enjoy your reviews.
Went with the Fuji, love how the camera handles and looks :)
Nicely levelled review. Like that you only strive the common cliches and give a balanced look. Fujis in camera processing doesn't get so many mentions any more but was a big point to me ... X-T3 for me however due to handling and WR. Not gonna follow release cycles when buying a camera :D
That's why I buy xt30 when it comes to my needs and specs. I love it! Nice review ❤️
Easy choice for me, I already own Fuji lens. Both cameras sound great though
Both cameras are awesome! I already own some E-mount lenses for my a6000, so the a6400 upgrade is a no brainer for me. But if I were starting over, I wouldn't have any issues with buying the X-T30 instead.
The Fuji lens line-up is the decider if you consider the camera body for what it ism just one component of a system
I was almost sold on geting a Sony a6400, but now I'm taking a hard look at the XT-30. I am at a point thwere I have to start (again) to get new glass, and used to have Canon DSLR before. Bu tI like the line up of Fuji glass (especially the small prime lenses), and the looks and control layout of the Fuji bring me back to the first 35mm film rangefinder camera I bought at a pawn shop when I first started in photography. The images on the Fuji also look great off the box, so it would make things easier, and let you concentrate on shooting, rather than having to spend a lot of time on post processing.
WIth the Sony, though the weather sealing and auto-focus are unbeatable, but ultimately, I do like the looks of the Fuji (I like teh look of teh XE-3 a bit more, but the XT-30 is pretty in the silver or black colors).
I'd go with a silver Fuji XT-30....
Big help! Thank you
Great review!
Life is short...buy both. One wife...many cameras.
What a smart idea it is!
Yes. Have both
Smartest comment I've ever read so far.. LOL
I wanted to get the fuji as a backup camera for the 10bit video, aesthetics and film emulations, but being I already had a Sony A73 I went with the 6400 because of my exisiting emount lenses, crazy good autofocus and unlimited video record time.
Have not seen one of those 'Peddle-Pubs' for a while but we certainly used to have them here in London, UK a couple of years ago.
Great review
Great video! And classic album, when is 'Hump 2 Bump' gonna drop??
It's like Fuji made the Canon style camera we wanted. You guys are onto something. Keep testing and comparing the video features 👍
Really great job guys, really good
Looking forward on testing that amazing af system of the sony. How it switches from eye, face love it
Fuji. I love their jpegs and film simulations.
Love Xt30 . The appearance of this camera takes me back to the past and Its performance takes me to the present.
Yaa 😁
Hi chris,
I am just into photography. And weight, handling and image quality is very important to me.
Is there a lot of difference in their image quality?
Which of them is more comfortable to use?
What will i miss out from the other if i choose either of them?
Are sigma 16mm f1.4 and 56mm f1.4 really good enough to choose sony a6400?
No doubt fujifilm lenses are amazing but they are nearly double the price.
Will that less expensive combo be sufficient for me?
Answers to these questions might help me decide.
Thank you
Wait a minute, there is a cap for how long you can record in 4K and 1080p on the fuji? What exactly does that mean? Like in segments? If i want to record a scene for an hour, it will still record that whole hour but i will have to stitch the 10 minute segments together, correct?
Great comparison, the xt30's video record limit is a very annoying limit. I think it's mostly due to heat but more testing is require to figure that out.
It is. When Fuji used the A6300 sensor for their 24MP cameras, they still had one of the recording limits in the industry. Processing X-Trans is more intensive than standard Bayer, so it takes more processing and therefore creates more heat, to do the same thing a simple Bayer sensor does.
How about the choice of the lens from 3 party manufacturer, which brand has more options?
Why cant fuji do tap to track subject focus? Only face and eye focus. Firmware please!
Need a review on the Sony RX 0 II, are there any plans to review this camera, thanks.
You guys are awesome
Damn fine camera for Fuji but the 10-min 4K limit is a B-camera deal breaker for me.
Does the new version 3.0 firmware update for Sony a6400 change the tilt on these cameras?
The Sony a6400 makes a great second camera to my A7iii. I constantly use full frame lenses on it and my personal favorite combo is the a6400 with the Sony 70-300mm G where I get OSS and a 450mm equivalent from the crop. This plus the AF makes it one of those most portable run and gun nature photography kits I can make.
If you haven't tried the AF with the Sony a6400 then do so before you buy any of the cameras. It's a good predictor for how you will shoot full frame AF-C in the future.
Chris, what lens did you use to record this on the GH5S.
I went wth the Fuji. I'm a beginner. I wanted a camera that was versatile and gave me room to grow. The menu is really straight forward and the dials aid my learning. Its fun to play with and encourages me to shoot. Didn't cost an arm and a leg either.
No flipping screen right?
How does the canon m50 compare to these? Dual Pixel AF and Color are still good right?
The analog controls on the Fujifilm are fantastic. I use the camera, almost never having to go into the menus. The camera is intuitive, the quality it stellar. Sony must be a good product, but I'll keep the Fujifilm.
Hello! Which one is better for video vlogging or video cinematic making? Xt30 or a6400? Thank you so much!!
But I'd love to see Fuji make a Ricoh GR competitor, the film simulation would work so well for that purpose.
They have the x70 already, and the Ricoh's color negative film simulation is uncannily close to portra.
Hi! Thanks for the review..
Which one should I choose between Sony A6500 and Fujifilm XT30?
Slight error during the video segment the title card on the left said "a6300" instead of "a6400). For me the Fuji's are not comfortable to hold/grip so I didnt get one even though I wanted one for the color and bnw film sims. I love my Sony's (3 of them)
Sir which one is better for travel?
Please can you do a comparison of the D500, EOS 7D2 and A6400 for BIF etc?
Oh, yes, I’d love to see that!
1:23 - why was that album last tough 🤔... it looks lit to me 🔥 🔥 🔥
The fact that you used The Dipset for your album riff gets 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿from me!
Who knew y’all was repping with the Dips!
Y’all invited to the cookout I mean barbecue 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Muntu Blackson DIPSET!
FYI capture one has a free express version for fuji and Sony users and I've found it does a good job for my needs with my fuji camera.
Nice comparison
You guys really used “DipSet Anthem” for that b boy beat 🤣🤣🤣 #Harlem
El Mayimbe they are invited to the cookout 🤣🤣🤣😁
U foget about hybrid log gamma in Sony A6400
Just got back from Best Buy. I really preferred the physical feeling of the a6400. I guess I'll have to do without 10-bit external.
Is it the grip on the sony thay makes it better to hold? You can buy a grip on ebay to the Fuji and it makes it a whole lot better - www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Meike-MK-XT20G-Metal-Handheld-Grip-L-Shape-Bracket-for-Fujifilm-Fuji-X-T20-X-T10/163590857575?hash=item2616c66367:g:eN4AAOSwUPpchiD2&frcectupt=true
What about wireless connectivity and apps?
With the x-t30 you can dump all youre pictures to your phone with BT 4.2, start working on them in LR mobile and as soon as youre phone is connected to wifi the pics uploads to the LR cloud and other clouds, so you have a backups and you can continue the post work on youre computer. The app allows live view and remote controll so you can use youre phone as a monitor when in front off the camera.
Will you review the panasonic s1?
Few years ago, the choice between Sony a6300 and Fuji XT20 was also a difficult one, eventually I decided to take Sony because it's more video oriented and there was huge price drop for black friday. Now it would be even harder to choose between XT30 and a6400. Both are such a great cameras.
Hey good review! Just one question you guyz read off que cards? Write and remember your lines? Or total talking flying off the seat of your pants? Just realized I never think about how much time you spend trying to make it flow simple executed brilliantly.
Weve never scripted any of our shows. We do make research notes, but otherwise we just let things flow the way they flow. We feel it gives a more natural and sincere impression.
@@niccollsvideo Cool stuff keep on doing what you do! More Wooden Nickel productions although! They are great!
Fuji for me, I’ve had the Sony a6000 but it’s a very complicated camera to use. The Fuji inspired you to pick up the camera and go shoot.
In Dubai, I found a fuji Xt2 with kit 18-55 exactly at the same price as A6400 with the kit also, hard to chose between these two
Seif Eddine B X-T2 with the 18-55mm for sure.
Thank you so much for this comparison!! Looking for an upgrade and I love the Fuji's nowadays! Including the pricetags for the lenses (I am Dutch after all:)
However I now have a lot of portraits out of focus because my AF is not that great on my current gear. So despite I WANT a Fuji I think I end up BUYING the Sony.. Just because of the better AF. Thanks again! Cheers!
Anybody able to link to the mic adapter for the X-T30? I’m having a hell of a time finding one in Canada.
Wondering if there's been a firmware update for the Fuji in the time since this video has been published that would narrow the Sony's autofocus advantage?
Love the looks of the Fuji and the lens options. But I tried both in the shop and for my hands the Fuji just feels not comfortable. Like it will fall out of my hand. The grip not working for me. Sony grip feels way more secure and comfortable for me. Nikon Z50 feels good in my hand too. But so far I am leaning towards the a6400.
hello sir.
which one would be better choice for video recording between fujifilm xa7 and Sony a6000
If you are shooting things that move, it's the a6400 all day every day. That AF is astonishing.
@blacklizted That is THE ONLY thing that's preventing me to get the Sony - that bloody rolling shutter!! I can live without the ND filter and smaller batteries, but video is my thing, and I toss an turn about this frustrating issue over and over again. So no, it isn't Sony all day every day! Pfftt..
But the color is just wrong.
blacklizted the xt30 also has rolling shutter, it’s a wash. The Sony is superior
wich is the sharper image?
Hi, Which bump is easier to manage on a small gimbal ? Thanks
Hey which of these would be best for kids and pet stills
Questiion, if I use a prime lens can I achieve the same detailed color like the Fuji?
I owned both xt20 and xt30. When i first hold the xt20 2 years ago, i was not please with the ergo and handgrip. It's too light, plasticky, and not stable to hold. But with time, i learned to appreciate its shortcomings. Because xt20 is small in size, it wont receive as much attention. Because xt20 is light, i can shot all day long without hurting my shoulder muscle. Its shortcomings are its strength and that's why i'm buying the new xt30.
How do the hump and bump feel in the hand? Does the pinkie finger get any action on either of them? Never liked the X-T20's lackluster bump. I prefer a substantial hump that can handle more lens gi... okay, I'm done. ;D Either camera would pretty great for a lot of people I'm sure. In this case handling is probably a big factor because both have really solid specifications.
Hi. Tell me please, what kind of camera do you think the A6400 kit 18-135 or Fuji X-T30 kit 18-55 takes? I do not know how to process photos and videos. Need a camera for home use. Shoot nature on fishing and baby. Fuji likes color presets, but autofocus is also important. A lot of bloggers said that Fuji AF is worse, losing face.Thanks
Does the Fuji still have the time limit when recording externally? I want to use it for some live streaming.
No time limit when you record externally!
And U forget about 24-bit internal audio recording in Fujifilm X-T30
Hard time to choose, i bought them both. switching between the camera's keep's me motivated somehow.
how was the 2 cams?
+Chris I like the way you say pro-cess.
Excellent comparison. Thanks!
I wish the Sony had the joy stick, I think that makes things so much easier.
which camera are you using in this video ?
Which one is better ? I will not answer that but I will tell you which one I bought the a6400 which I mainly use for video, no record limit, tilting screen and no record limit are very important for me.
Are those the faces of Chris and Jordan on the Pedal Pub?
I’m already invested in the Sony system but the XT30 really has me curious. It does bother me that 4K caps out at 10 mins with the Fuji but I can’t deny the image is really pleasing on the Fuji
Cj64films life is short, don’t ever feel like you’re too invested into a ‘system’ to switch brands. Especially with these aps-c systems where the lenses are relatively cheap. I won’t hesitate to sell off a system, and I chalk up the small loss as a ‘user fee’. (I.e. the difference in money between what you bought it for & what you sold it for is your actual cost of use).
Shoot with what makes you happy!
For sure! Sony has really neglected their APSC line. Fuji’s lens game is on point. The a6400 really fits my needs as far as auto focus & performance. But that doesn’t mean I wouldn’t give Fuji a shot
If you don't mind processing, F-Log is very similar to S-Log, so you can use the same Fuji LUTs on on the Sony, including Fuji's Eterna, and still come out with a good look. And yes, the A6400 has unlimited recording with no overheating, while the Fuji is significantly limited due to potential overheating.
Yeah that’s why I’m swayed to buy the a6400 the unlimited recording, & better heat dissipation, and improved auto focus. I own an a6300 so it would be an upgrade either way.
I have a6300 and xt2. I use the sony on a gimbal for videos and the fuji for still photos.
Are both these cameras continuous-autofocus-capable at 1080/120? Thanks...
For image quality, nikon d7500 or fuji xt30?
the Bierfiets (Beer Bike) came to light in Amsterdam. Many British tourists appreciated that...the locals not so much, so eventually, after over ten years of gaining notoriety and spinning up the NIMBY's nuisance-meter, the Beer Bike was officially banned from the historic city center 3 years ago.
which is better? for cinematic video or predebut shoot? i got fujifilm xa5 and i want to upgrade...to xt30 or a6400
You can adjust the colours but it is much harder to bring back out of focus subjects
So enjoying a sunshine in Canada?
I had such a hard time deciding before I saw this video. Now I know why. I chose the Fuji, because I was using my senses versus mind, like you said.
All i know is that im very happy with my fuji xt3 and the f2 fujicron lenses
Did I miss your ride with the Pedal Pub...?
fuji x-t30 vs canon m50 vs lumix g80 whitch is the best for video and photos? thank you for ansver
Does the x-t30 still have the record limit?
