Love the x-t5 as a b-cam. Have the x-h2s, xt5 & xs20. So happy with the setup. Use all 3 for weddings
Love that. Solid setup for sure :)
So many helpful videos man. I really appreciate this. There’s such a lack of Fuji content that is geared towards this type of content and this checks all the boxes!
So glad to hear that. Appreciate you letting me know!
The mic genuinely sounds great 👌🏼
glad to hear. yeah no complaints from me!
You should use both mics for redundancy
*me wearing hidden lav mic this whole video because i didn't know if I could trust it@@KadeemBooth
Waiting for that settings video!
Aye, should be out next week!
That’s a solid set up right there. I’m currently using the XT4 as my A Cam and my XT2 as my B Cam which definitely has it’s flaws and drawbacks. After watching this I’m seriously contemplating why I never considered the XT5 as an option.
Thanks so much! Yeah I feel like it just kinda got passed over in all of Fuji’s releases when it comes to video
You are spot on!! I have the x-s20.
I was just on an engagement 💍 shoot. I had the monitor in with SmallRig plug holder. The port still messed up due to how I unplugged it. Luckily, I had taken all of the interview shots I needed. I used the x-t4 as my second angle.
Anyway, my 1st big job and I can no longer use a monitor. BTW, if you have a fix, please let me know.
I know, no more mini hdmi camera purchases for me. This looks like a good A-cam option for me. I don't want to go into CF express yet. Glad I am learning on this camera now.
Thanks so much! Ah sorry to hear that - I think your only option would be sending into Fuji for repair. And yeah this camera still has a micro HDMI port. Will talk about my approach to protecting it in my rig video.
@@blasepivovar awesome!! I thought mine was protected. Can't wait to see how you keep it going and protected.
Yeah HDMI mini is such an awefull connector. Im currently shooting with a X T30 Mark I and want to upgrade because i do like video shooting. I was thinking about switching to the sony a6700 because i do want to use that autofocus. I was thinking about the XH2S but it seems that native glass isnt always the fastets when it comes to video. I dont know what to do.
Hi Blaise! Thank you so much for this! Xt5 was my first long time mirrorless cam (can canon r50 for a month but sold it off for xt5). I love it for photos then i realized wanted to do videos too. I was at the point of selling it off as well for the xh2s simply due to the flip screen. Hope you can make more videos about how to use the xt5 for video and work arounds for the flip screen if you want to vlog with it.
Glad to hear the video was helpful! Going to be doing some more videos about the camera for sure. I don't think I have any tips for vlogging without a flip screen. It may be easiest for you to use your phone and or change the style of shooting to fit the gear you have. Hope some of the videos I have planned will be helpful to ya!
@@blasepivovar will watch out for those content! Excited for it!
@@blasepivovar Would also love some more videos using XT-5.
i use my XT4 as my A cam and my XH2 (not the 's') as my B cam. It works great but the rolling shutter is real - just gotta be mindful and intentional and it's fine.
Good to note. Appreciate you letting me know 🙏🏽
I have the X-T5 and X-H2s. I’m putting it off, but it is only a matter of time before I sell off the X-T5 to put toward another X-H2s. I love both cameras, but the X-H2s is better suited to my needs.
2 would be pretty sick. Glad to hear you are using something similar
BRO YOU'RE GIVING ME GAS
haha you probs don't need it
Back at it again Blase 👏 lol Very clean video as usual man, another banger 😎 did you mention what lens you used for the b-roll shots? Also what are your thoughts on Nikon buying Red, neither were really on my radar for future purchases but after the acquisition I actually might look into a Nikon/Red cinema camera (maybe) lol
Thanks so much! Most were on the EF 24mm pancake. Others were on some unreleased lenses I can't mention yet :)
Not a ton of thoughts on the Red/Nikon acquisition. Waiting to hear what that actually practically will look like moving forward
@@blasepivovar Niceeee, are you able to say if any of the mystery lenses are anamorphic? 😄
wish i could say more@@allen_bernardo_jr
I have an X-T5 and I use it primarily for my video’s since I shoot film photography mostly on my Nikon F2AS.
The X-T5 is an amazing camera for video, definitely punches above its weight and is also considerably smaller than the XH2S (also looks cooler 😆)
Sweet. Yeah I am loving it so far
Love your videos. Do you also sell LUTs for flog2 conversion?
Thanks! My Flog-2 conversion lut is the in pack yes :)
I have the Comica VM30 mic and I have used it for professional shoots. It has been fantastic also it does have real-time monitoring. Also you can use it wired up to have more control and stability. Absolutely recommend to check it out.
Sweet! Glad to hear it
@@blasepivovar Awesome! Sorry, forgot to say that you can also wire it up so you will have more control and stability.
For sure! Yeah I think I mentioned that in the video. I'd add that for the wired connection, XLR would be my preference as the thicker cables help shield it from interference, especially introduced by power cables. 3.5mm connections only are just a little dicey at times if you are running a longer cable. @@lauritee
@@blasepivovar Awesome 💪
Exactly the video I needed, thank you! What SD cards will handle the the most demanding video on this camera? There are many to choose from, but I don't want to overpay for cards that are faster than necessary.
I personally film with Sandisk Extreme PRO UHS-I V30 cards with no issues at 200mpbs. That said, Fujifilm has their own list on their website with cards they would recommend and have verified. This video might also be helpful: czcams.com/video/pNm2g8jBdP8/video.html
Hey, very interesting perspective.
Is the XT5's worse rolling shutter going to affect handheld rig filming too much? Will you be using ibis?
Yo! Haven’t tested it extensively but i don’t see it being a problem with how I film handheld. IBIS will just depend on what I am filming.
Hey, bro. Hope you are doing well. I want to get a new camera setup to shoot podcasts. I really like the body style of the Xt series. Would you recommend the Xt5 for video? The flip screen problem can be solved by getting an external monitor.
Hey! Yeah the XT5 would be great for podcasts. You want something with no record limits so your options from Fuji would be XT5, XH2, XS20, XH2S. If you are doing more personal work the XS20 might be the move. If professional then XT5 or XH2S
@@blasepivovar great. I am hearing that the xt50 may have similar specs with a much lower price so that could also be the way..
Currently using an XT-3
Such an amazing camera. Keep at it. While I sold one of them, Idk if I'll ever sell my other XT3
I'm a Fuji xt4 user, but I'm thinking about a Sony FX3 just because of the high ISO option and the very good rolling shooter, my main style of vídeos is sports ads e docs/branded content, but honestly I've been thinking about the xh2-s seems a very good câmera very capable!!
i haven’t personally used the fx3 but looks amazing! i don’t think you can go wrong with either. for me, it’s image over everything and for the price i don’t think the xh2s can be beat
Which settings did u use for the videos at the cafe? Your flog2 or classic chrome?
flog 2
Wonderful image quality . You might try xs20 .i think you will love that too
Yeah it’s great! I spoke to why I didn’t go with it in the video
@@blasepivovar yeah ofcourse .the dual card slot . I can understand .
@@blasepivovar is it the canon ef-s 24mm you used in this video?
parts yes
How is the rolling shutter on the x-t5? main reason why I stayed away from one
yo! what context would be helpful to see it tested in? the whip pans people but in reviews are never helpful for me personally as it doesn’t translate to anything realistic
honestly just a lot of handheld stuff, regular pans, moving objects (cars etc) I think it would be nice to whip pan and get a global shutter feel like the x-h2s but I'm not expecting that out of this camera haha - for context I have the x-s20 and I think it gets better RS than x-t5 just based off the sensor but not certain on that @@blasepivovar
I also use Fujifilm to shoot weddings and I always have to shoot a lot at the church, like 1 and a half hour/wedding. I always have to change batteries because I can`t film that much with only 1 battery. How did you solved this problem when you shoot interviews? I use the xt4, xs10 and xt3.
I think that I found the answer, you are using v-mount batteries, but for run and gun wedding situation they are pretty heavy, especially to shoot with them on gimbal.
For interviews, I typically plug in my camera/monitors directly to wall power via USB C and an extension cord. If that isn't the option or I am needing to move around, v mount is the answer. Before that, I used 10,000mah portable battery banks as a budget solution and those worked great. Hope that helps!
@@blasepivovar I also tried to use power banks, but the battery still died. I can set up the camera to firstly use the power bank and after that the battery? Or I need to use a special power bank?
@zsoldosbotond7531 yeah you need to make sure you have one that has a PD output. From there usb c should be sent to the camera from the PD port with a proper cable. Once the battery bank dies, the internal battery on the camera will be full charged and then will begin depleting it.
@@blasepivovar Thanks, I didn't knew this!
Would have loved to hear downsides to the Xt5 for Video with this, but great review otherwise
thx. just a first impression vid. maybe will do a full review after ive used the cam for a good bit. the main downside for me is the HDMI port as mentioned in the video. for others might be the lack of a flip screen, or a crop at 6k + 4k/60
@@blasepivovar thanks man love your channel
still X-H2S main cam ? I love your videos man !!!
yes! thank you
I got my XT5 last year and I can't be more happy with it. It is my main camera and as a hybrid shooter it fits my needs perfectly. As you say, the possibility of having 14 custom modes it's great, works perfect for my film sims in photo mode and for my workflow un vídeo with all the modes I need. It has a small body and for super long photo shoots it's not the most comfortable, more if you pair it with heavy lenses but I purchase the smallrig handgrip and it feels a lot better. I have rented a couple of times the Fuji XH2S and it is a great camera. ISO performance is outstanding and it is the worst thing on the XT5 for me so I think that combining them both must be a great combo. Dying to watch your next video about your XT5 settings!
Love that! Settings vid should be out next week!
Das good audio
was also liking it!
Why didn't you get an X-H2? Exact same body as the X-H2s just has the 40MP sensor instead of the 26MP sensor in the X-H2s and is only slightly more expensive than the X-T5 (both when bought on the used market), or why not even get the X-T4?
Def considered it (did you watch the whole video?). XT5 was the right price for me (found a great deal on an open box model), didn't want more CF express (added cost), didn't want 8k, liked the idea of a b cam having a smaller body for places I need to bring a very small camera. If I was going to spend the extra money on the XH2 it would have made more sense for me just to get an additional XH2S. As far as the XT4 - wanted F-Log2, unlimited recording.
@@blasepivovar I did watch to the end but I posted my comment before I got to the end of the video.
Is Xt5 good as an A cam for filmmaking?
Yes for sure. Would definitely depend on what you are filming but I used an XT3 professionally for over 2 years and this camera has greatly improved on that in terms of IBIS, unlimited recording, dynamic range.
@@blasepivovarfor an A cam and you were choosing between the xh2 and the XT5, what would you choose? I shoot 50/50 video and photos. I want to get the best in between !
XT5 for me (hence this video haha). Sensor and therefore image quality will be the same so you are basically picking between price, body style, 8k option, pro res, cf express vs sd card. I would not personally pick the XH2 as an A cam if you are doing a good amount of video. @@briandenishawkes
