It might be me, but that does not seem like the best way to get people to make positive in-dept reviews of your camera.
That's one of the reasons this isn't on the main channel.
@@LaughingOrange not really
Probably they went Red's and Apple's way of selling stuff. It's not bad, we aren't just the public for those products.
To be fair to Fuji, a press unit of any product is often shipped direct from one reviewer to the next, without returning to a distributor or refurbish depot or anything in-between, hence why the charger is missing from the packaging.
@Tessa That's why I said one of the reasons. Even if it was possible to make an interesting video about it the limited battery available would make it impossible.
As someone who knows almost literally nothing about professional photography, I enjoyed this video

@@lukasmurmann625What information was wrong?
Phew, I'm not alone
@@lukasmurmann625 I agree
"For a measly $579 for this little adapter that does this and this and this and this and this'.....that's $115.80 a this.
Seems like a similar practice that apple has with some products, wheels and monitor stands
The pricing is kinda like their RED cameras.
To be fair, ten grand for a med format digital camera is pretty much middle of the road - a Phase One XF with an 80mm lens is 9k..
They probably don't even make much money on it, since it isn't exactly produced by the millions..
@@Ikxi that's an extra adapter to buy.. They have included one regular adapter
Nobody in this comments section knows the significance of this camera for its price. Not blasting anyone who doesn't know, because not everyone is a photographer. But every other 100+ megapixel medium format camera is twice to three times the price of this one. On top of that, it has more features AND is more portable. Also in-body stabilization is crazy for a sensor this size...
Thanks! Today I learned.
ZelosXT I know, it’s insane!
But is it compatible with my selfie stick?
@@InvadersDie yes, but your selfie stick is not compatible with the camera :D
Ah Thanks! I thought it was an absurd price, but now not so much

i mean this in the best and most respectful way possible
brandon should have his own channel talking about cameras and photography
his insight is brilliant but a vastly different topic to anything on LMG channels currently
i said this on his xt-4 vid and completely agree
We need a fortnightly Brandon show.
That's why short circuit where we can at least get a small glimpse
If he'd want to do his own thing it would need a lot of time and investment and LMG wouldn't do it probably because it doesn't create so much revenue itself and videos would be a bit scarce and he is already a camera man, would be more work.
I agree with this, I wish brandon has his own channel connected with LTT to discuss anything and everything about camera gear or behind the scene setups in the office
This was a horrible review if you're not already a camera expert. If expert-to-expert camera reviews generated real revenue for LTT you can bet there would be more of them.
Like seeing the content from Brandon. Though the background music got kinda distracting in this video
Too loud
He's a natural in front of the camera when it comes to talking about cameras. Great stuff.
Him: "That's Crazy!"
Me: "ah yes so crazy" **looks around nervously**
Same 😂
I started watching this video not knowing anything about cameras. I finished the video not knowing anything about cameras.
A note to the editors:
The music is pretty distracting. Turn it down a couple notches in the future please. Thanks!
huh? you can barely even hear it
I do not agree, it is not that loud. Might be your setup?
it really freaked me out at one part of the video
Never noticed the music until this comment appeared 😂
Yay, Brandon’s back!
You know when Brandon gets on you’re not going to understand most of what is said. Granted it’s not because of him, but because photography is obviously very complex.
Wish my prospective clients got the complexity of my job. Instead many of them figure that their smartphone will take just as good of images as my *knowledge* allows me to
I need to see more Brandon on this side of the camera :-)
I'm a simple man - I see a Brandon camera review, I hit like.
You're just a desperate man who needs likes

Mr HocusPocus well played
The pot was definitely calling the kettle black
As a SLR nerd, I LOVE the camera coverage on this channel. Mind you, I can’t afford ANY of the cameras you have covered so far, someday though.
Wonder how Brandon would handle my 4x5 camera with digital back adapter (I use an aging P65+)
This not an slr tho
Wow Dennis’ accent has improved a lot
Damn
3:20 or so, the battery's capacity rating in miliamp hours isn't the only factor that matters. Battery voltage is also important. In phones it's prettymuch universally a single cell, so it's always 3.7 volts, and more miliamp hours means more capacity, but if you're thinking "Well my phone has a 4000mAh battery what gives?", the difference there is voltage. That battery is running at least 2 cells, more likely 3 given its size and capacity. Voltage times miliamp hour capacity gives you watt hour capacity, which is the actual amount of energy stored in the battery.
A 1300mAh battery at 11.1V stores 14.43 watt hours of energy. A 4000mAh phone battery at 3.7V stores 11.1 watt hours of energy.

I actually really enjoy Brandon reviewing cameras. Hope more company send their camera to Linus Media Group to review
I love Brandon geeking out to cameras, You don't often see that kind of passion for something in particular.
I'm now expecting LTT to start uploading IMAX resolutions to CZcams :P
They have already been doing that for years, the "4K" and option is actually about the same resolution as 4k laser and vastly superior to your run of the mill 2k digital IMAX, as they are using the same 8K Red cameras Hollywood does. What he was talking about was the value sentiment due to the fact the purpose of the camera is for shooting still images and not video but they included it anyway, as LTT has already been running around with better cameras that set them back $20,000 USD a piece and for the whole setup for one camera over $100,000.
@@wh0_am_152 he meant real imax real imax film but can digitally converted to 16k

For sure!
I love attaching my glass - too.
I've never owned a camera and I can empathise with that.
if your cam isn't rigid, it's unreliable. and you also don't want a huge contraption like that to flex, would scare me of breaking it. and since that's not so easy to engineer, it's also not a given.
tight click + rigid = quality = awesome xD
*click* noice
I just watched all of the Camera vids and must say, they are by far the most enjoyable part of ShortCircuit and even LMG stuff in general. Kudos Brandon, this content is amazing.
notice how he had to stop himself dribbling, like the whole time.
As far as i can tell this is a nice camera to have. Medium Format is a very big deal. IBIS is making a huge difference and Phase Detection AF is much better than contrast-based AF. But the only thing that is bothering me is that it has SD card slots. I mean you can shoot redundant. But 102 Megapixels and 4K 10bit video needs real write speeds. Which why I think a CF card is necessary.
We want to see Dennis unbox something.
"Nobody watches unboxings, unboxing are dumb. Why are you making me do this? OK here is some product they gave me."
@@furrysophie8997 I read that in Dennis' voice and imagined him waving them box around

There's just something so captivating about Brandon's passion for cameras!! Awesome video once again, more Brandon please!
I really enjoy the videos with Brandon in them!
5:46 GOT OUR PICKAXE SWINGING FROM
I know less than nothing about cameras but I do enjoy Brandon's videos; like so many of the LTT crew, it's the passionate enthusiasm that makes it such good content, IMHO.
yeah i have no idea what this is about
edit: I think he said it was a good camera though
The EVF tilt adapter alone costs more than my camera ! What a steal !
@ 2:50 that's on the left, not on the right. Never mind what the audience or "camera" sees, it's always from back to front whether you're describing a new electronic product or locating a position on a city bus; Chassis forward/ user forward.
take a shot every time he says you will have confidence.
Instructions unclear, killed 48 people
Sorry, charger wasn't included, so couldn't take any shot
I would, but I don't have a $10k camera so I couldn't take that shot with confidence.
The click might be tight, but if you want to take care of your spring and bajonett holding it in, press down the release button not only when screwing it off, but also when screwing it on.
I worked in retail for quite some time and in some of the manufacturer guides on how to construct and present the cameras on shelf they write about such 'tips and tricks'.
I love how he's blown away by the Phase detection as if he hasn't used a Sony Alpha camera before
Brandon talking about cameras is something I need more of in my life. He should do an LTT video doing a rundown of the best cameras at certain price points!
"Why is this $10,000" Because its worth that much and it is special. Medium format 100mpx. There are not many available with such a specs, i own GFX50S
That is a brilliant customizable medium format camera and its cheaper than its competitors. Medium Format are best for Large studio and billboard photography applications. Their sensors have always given colour accuracy and were the benchmark back in the day 2001 their photographic printers were fully digital and had in that time CCD 20 megapixels (in 2001
) to scan and print from film, every pro-photographer I dealt with then insisted on having their pictures print on the fuji printer. Yet those same photographers said digital will never be the same as film.
Me who knows jack shit about cameras sitting here like "Oh yea some of those words make sense"
This camera is a game changer, people don't realize medium format is atleast 3x the price, less features, and less capable. This camera is quite literally forcing the other medium format companies to finally innovate after years of owning a market.
The lack of sample images is disturbing
More camera content with this dude please!!!!!
stop clipping down Brandon's wings I would've loved to see a field test
I work in the used department of a camera/electronics store and we get returns of pretty much everything we sell as well as people selling used gear to us. I've been fortunate to mess around with almost every camera in existence, including rare vintage stuff. Comparing the price of this camera to other cameras with the same sized sensor and MP rating, it really is a "bargain" (looking at you, Hasselblad H6D-100c). edit: Spelling, grammar + light copy edit.
This seems like gold for any professional photographer or photo journalist
Especially that resolution on stills
You could quickly snap a photo with fast focus of someone on the street or an overall scene, and then in post just punch way in for a full 1080p image of them
Fujifilm GFX100 cost $10k ?
that's one hell of a price for a girlfriend experience...
MORE Brandon in front of the camera! Enjoy watching, might not always understand everything but definitely learn something. Brandon's passion showing thru tops it off.
I'm a bit sad thet there where nearly no pictures. I would have loved to see some examples from outdoors.
The corona thing is hitting hard even if creators try to hide the fact. Also youtube is demonetizing videos that mention corona, so yeah, people not talking about that anytime soon on here
You don't understand the point of this channel. It is specifically for short unboxings, not reviews. Also, they had no charger.
@@xenonram That's not true at all. In the NZXT BLD H1 Video he showed some benchmarks of the system same in the ASUS Zephyrus video. They said themself that it's a channel for products they don't want to make a full video on but it's not just an unboxing channel.
Even though the lens is only f4 on the GFX medium format lens that would look the same as F2.8 DoF wise on a Full Frame camera, which still gives nice bokeh for sure
Only $10,000? Why are you guys even bothering.. pfft.

Really enjoyed this video, Brandon! I should definitely take some camera and photo/video advice from you, lol.
I've been a photographer so long I still have an old Fuji S3 kicking about.
And I had flashbacks looking at this, Fuji breaking away from the norm again and even some winks to the old ideas that really worked!
oh, cmon, such a nice cam, pls give us links to some sample shots and a short 4k10bit test vid (T_T)
with the type c charging complaint, the camera is meant for professional photographers whos setups can top 100s of thousands of dollars so they usually purchase many extra batteries and have them continually charging throughout a shoot
Love this new angle of short circuit doing camera reviews!
music is way too intrusive on this one imo but loving these vids, keep it up yall
$10k camera and there is no usb C charging... it's not even funny
I like more of this types of videos in LMG as high quality products like this is entertaining
Just FYI Brandon, the Sigma 105mm f/1.4 fully covers the GFX sensor without significant vignetting.
If my camera is expensive as that, it MUST do everything that I needed for at least a century. Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn.
To talk about mAh in batteries, you need to take into account voltage. Those are 10.8 volts, where a typical camera is 7.4, and a phone is 3.7 volts. It is a 13.28 Watts battery, which is not bad at all.
Best video on ShortCircuit yet!
Phase Detection AF faster and more accurate for photography than Contrast Based AF?
For video, yes. For photography this isn't much of a given. Actually, quite the contrary and Panasonic's G9 with DFD on board might just be the fastest focusing camera.
Exactly, and this is also the reason why Nikon's mirrorless cameras for example use a second contrast detect step when in single point mode, and even offer a "pinpoint AF" setting that relies on contrast detect entirely. Phase detect's biggest benefit is the lack of micro pulsing in continuous video AF that so often plagues CDAF implementations.
Also, the GFX100's use of PDAF has meant that it has visible banding in shadow areas when the exposure is boosted in post, which ruins the usability of those 100MP files for landscape shooters, so it would have been far better for Fuji to keep using CDAF for their GFX line.
@@Bayonet1809 And since I presume the target audience for this type of camera is mostly interested in photography... Looks like CDAF or some hybrid solution (Sony and Nikon - like you pointed out) would have been the way to go.
Too bad the CDAF=SH*T stereotype is still propelled in a (otherwise comprehensive and educated) video from a proffesional.
The GFX50R (that is the older brick style body) can be had for about 2k used now. It is the same sensor size, smaller, lighter and takes the same lenses. And if you want to adapt lenses, the Fujis all have a built-in mechanical shutter. If you want to get into medium format, that is the one to buy right now.
I honestly love it when Brandon does videos
Oooh that is a tight mount. Feels good.

It's pretty common that a camera with a USB-C port will need a charger/battery pack that supports Power Delivery in order to use it while accepting power at the same time. In fact, a quick Google produces this handy tidbit from the GFX 100's "features" page on Fuji's site: "the camera can be powered and charged by connecting an AC power adapter (optional) to the power plug input connector or a USB Power Delivery device to the USB-C port."
FWIW, most laptops with USB-C charging won't charge at all if you're not using a USB-C PD source that also supports the specified wattage delivery, and I'd expect LTT/LMG to have a better handle on that reality. Likewise, there's most certainly a USB-C PD charger or battery bank floating around there (Anker makes plenty of them - shameless sponsor spot time?), so the battery criticism is actually a case of Fuji listening to consumers but consumers not listening back...
Need more of these type videos
Brandon's camera reviews are always great!
Great vid. Just like the last camera one.
More of this, please.
Guys I own the camera and IT DOES charge via USB C while being in use. Did you make sure your Amperage is correct and you have updated the latest firmware?? I strongly advise plugging your camera on a proper usb c wall charger or to a higher amperage usb c battery pack. The video HDR output of this machine is impressive.
Idk if reviewing a camera on a desk in a room is the best method. Especially for medium format and its weaknesses. Showing it’s capabilities is probably better than talking about it.
"If you adapt a lens that could cover the size of this sensor" - That's not how it works. The crop factor applies to the focal length as well as the aperture. So the GFX f/4 lens you have is more like a 35mm equivalent of f/2.8 . That's why the lens is still so large for a "f/4", and lenses for your APS-C sensor size Fuji X-T2 are really small that are "f/2.8". Their 35mm equivalent apertures are more like f/4. If anyone has trouble understanding, take a photo with a 35mm equivalent lens with a f/2.8 aperture on an APS-C sensor sized camera and compare it to a 35mm lens on a full frame camera with an aperture of f/4. The background blur will be roughly the same. If you only have an iPhone for example, their apertures are listed as f/1.8-2.0 depending on your model. But factor in the six times crop factor and they are actually more like f/8-f/11. Which is why they always seem to be in focus from front to back, and why "portrait mode" is used to blur the background to simulate a lens that actually has a real aperture of f/1.8-2.0 .
You are wrong (and also correct, but mostly wrong). Yes, you are right that from perspective of depth of field you need to "multiply" f value by crop factor to get similar results, just like you've mentioned, but f value is aperture and itself is giving you information about exposure in the first place and here f4 is f4 no matter the size of sensor. So f 1.8 Olympus lens will have similar dof as something like f 4.5 for gfx, but completely different amount of light (considering they are both full open)
Great first look, as a photographer and filmmaker I was really hoping for some more in depth analysis of IQ and maybe some sample footage. I hate to complain, just my thoughts! Cool camera though for sure, love what Fuji is doing these days!!
At 3:46 the music starts to get overpowering so much so that it is distracting and the change to another track at 5:05 is jarring, after that the music is just distracting.
Editors, please include the sample photos which Brandon clicked during the review.
Reviewing a camera without showing a single photo taken by it 10/10
They send it to him without sd cards inside.
a bit disappointed that you didn't show us some 4k log footage of this bad boiii
You should definitely try the 110mm f2!! Great fun, absolutely beautiful and really shows off the autofocus upgrade :)
Easily the best GFX lens.
Would have really liked Test images and videos from the camera
I’d really like to see more photography/videography gear related videos on LTT
I know nothing about cameras and photography. I just point and shoot with my phone.
But for some reason I still find Brandon's camera review/unboxings really interesting, even though I don't understand most of the terminology.
I recently purchased a Sony a6600 and the 4k quality is just phenomenal for its price
My fuji x-t3 shoots 4k 10bit 4:2:2 265 log profile external as well
It does support charging by USB... It's even showed as a feature on Fuji's website.
I think his point was that it can charge over usb-c it just isn't able to be used whilst charging.
@@ebb632 "The camera can also be powered and charged through the USB-C connection. Connecting an external battery that supports USB Power Delivery enables even longer continuous shooting and simultaneous charging of the two batteries in the camera" I don't think that's the case, but would like to hear from someone that has used it.
Pretty sure medium format film in still bigger than the sensor size, but still a powerhouse of a camera for sure
Because it's a car. It takes you somewhere. Oh, it's not. Never mind.
you should do in introduction into photography because i think a lot of us are interested but no idea where to start.
You could pretend to be a private eye with the extended view finder. You can take pictures around corners while hiding. Lol
Nice depth in review!
I love this types of videos.
I'm just wondering since I have a Sony a7RIV 61mp what reasons would I have to go to a Medium sized sensor camera?
Larger sensor and better sized mount
Pretty much none, full frame has faster equivalent glass so you don't get shallower depth of field or better light gathering from going medium format, and you also lose out on autofocus speed, readout speed, portability, cost.... There are very few sane reasons for needing 100MP either
This isn't about megapixels. Medium format is a completely different animal.
I really enjoyed this video. I almost wish there was an ltt type of approach to cameras as their is to the pc stuff, as then we could have "what's the best budget camera" and stuff like that
Why is Brandon not doing a more regular photography format on LTT ? I think most of us would enjoy more photography insights.
Brandon needs to do a full video review of this camera! Including stills and video! He's quite good on camera himself!
I'd love a camera channel with Brandon.
In the world of medium format cameras this model has by far the best price to performance ratio.
