Thank you for this video and showing what this camera can do. I know many folks don’t like the SIM dial but I really enjoy it. It’s become part of my photo composition which suites me well. I really like the smaller footprint and the roundness of the camera. I wish it had weather sealing. I’m ok with not paying +$300 for the bigger more professional XT5. I used the savings to help fund the purchase of a lovely prime lens.

Good video, but Hi, The XTxx cameras have never had an ISO dial, the Film Simulation dial replaced the drive dial (which how often do you change that that it requires a dial) I'd always prefer an ISO dial, but it is not a deal breaker, and changing film simulation is fun (I know i use the control ring on the X100 VI to change film sim)

Hi! I just ordered my XT-50 for travelling around in the next years, im searching for the best lens that can be versatile for every situation while im travelling around the world. Im a beginner but i studied photography for the last year . Which lens you think it's better? Fuji 18-135 or 16-55 + 50 140 combo? Thank you :)

16-55 and 50-140 is a good combo. But sometimes just having one lens for travel and not needing to switch lenses is a really nice. You should also checkout the 18-120mm f4 I’ve used it with the xh2s and it was awesome.

Fuji sees the XT50 as a more photo centric version of the XS20, which directly competes with the a6700, so that dictates the price, I guess. I’d still pick function over form and go with the XS20 instead. They will drop anyway, XS20 and a6700 already dropped quite a bit, so Fuji and Sony are just adding some cushion for cashbacks and discounts by starting a bit higher.

It’s my dream camera. I mainly use my camera for personal/travel, and some projects with my church. My priority for the camera is that it is compact. I don’t want to be seen lugging around a big camera. I feel that the larger cameras intimidate people quite a bit and you don’t get the right shot. I don’t shoot a ton of video, but when I do, I enjoy having Ibis and using Eterna as my film simulation; it comes out to look really professional, especially if you know what you’re doing with lighting and stuff like that. I also sometimes shoot in f - log. I own the X100 VI and I find that this is going to pair really well with that one. Do I recommend it, yes if you’re looking for a compact camera and you want to do some extra stuff with a video because it could definitely run video pretty well. As of now, I love the film simulation dial.

Actually, what the film simulation dial replaced was the drive mode dial. That being said, I really think that Fuji would do well to go Sony's route (from the a7 IV onwards I believe) and just replace the exposure compensation dial with the ISO dial. Exposure compensation can be set on the front or back dials already, and I don't know many ppl who use that. Finally, it's weird that film simulations cannot be mapped to either the front or back dials... anyway makes no sense. Agree that this is a weird camera, right now getting the slightly more expensive X-T5 means many more features (including the double-tilt screen), not a lot more weight, and I get to keep the current version of my photo editing software (which if I were to upgrade would wipe out the 'savings' from getting the X-T50 instead).
