I'm a hobbyist with GAS(gear acquisition syndrome) that likes to play with FUJI cameras for personal projects and I find very helpful and relaxing to watch your videos. Really appreciate your presented options to cheaper gear not just the latest and greatest. Keep the good work, totally love your calm! Cheers.

My go-to budget setup used to be a GH5 or GH5s but now you got my rethinking it. This looks amazing. Didn't realize the music videos were shot using the XT-3. I'm slowly investing in EF full frame glass (got a Canon 5D Mark II recently) so I may save this setup in my back pocket for the future.

It's calming to listen to you :) Thank you for this helpful video!

Another excellent video and some solid recommendations. I too have an XT3, then bought a used XT4 at a great price. Next up was the Sigma 18-35 with the XPro ll adapter which works great. Couple of Fuji primes 23 f1.4 and a 35 f2 prime
and now perhaps a 50 f2.

So Blase, I cannot agree with you more. These earlier Fuji X bodies are a great way to drop into video, and used well, they provide very professional footage.

I really do like your straightforward, info rich videos here on YouTube. Will be looking forward to more.

Stunning footage, wow! I shoot a lot for my church, so it's great to see some worship sets in here too 🔥

I use a similar set-up xt-5 with ef glass! But i primarily use a ef canon 16-35 2.8 and the fx 16mm 1.4 for darker shots. I aslo use an ef zeiss distagon 35mm f2, less budget friendly but i use my ef glass to shoot film! ;) so it’s a win/win. Love the video and totally agree the xt-3 is an amazing machine for the price!

Thank you for your video, I've been shooting weddings off and on for 20 years now I want to add cinematic videos to my package and on video has helped me the most. amazing thanks again 🎉

I loved my little xt3. Ended up switching to lumix a few weeks ago though. I’ve created alot of great photo and video work with that camera.

[juancarlosramirez]

I confirm, it is the best kit above the a7iii. I have been working in weddings for 10 years, I have colleagues who work with Sony, honestly the Fujifilm XT3 is above all that range

[Graceless]

I absolutely LOVE my XT3 - I personally love adapting lens’s from my old film cameras (Minolta & Mamiya glass) would recommend to anyone. Especially doing cinema work - where manual focus and no IBIS are preferred anyways

[MatthewHatjakes]

Would love to see more on the XT3! Definitely the best looking footage I’ve seen on YouTube

[kadeemcreates]

Currently using an XT-3, Viltrox 13 for video (I’m switching from being photography centered to video)

Love your videos 📹 ❤️. As you know, I have the fujifilm x-s20. I have the Tamron 17-70mm. I can attest, it is an amazing lens. I also have the ttartisan 25mm f2.0. I a. Currently testing low light performance. I think that is a great recommendation for a second camera for me. I was trying to get the camera you have, but realizing, I can complete great work with this camera and a second like it. Such as the t-3, t-4, or a second x-s20.

MAN I was just saying this to a friend. Fuji first its key for any creator those color profiles change the game.

6:35 + what music is playing in the backround?

[SillyMonkeys]

Nice video, thank you...i am starting travelling soon in a campervan, i want to make videos while travelling about nature and people and cityscapes, with an arty, spiritual slant...Do you think this is a good set up for me?

[TwangThang]

Curious as to why the X-T3 rather than an X-H1? Used prices are similar.

[melloooo_]

Can you recommend a camera for shooting low light (like in concerts). Not sure if i should go with a full frame and spend a bit more or just go with a aps-c

[faiqalisutiono]

How did you got the look of the first footage?

[mrcin]

Yea, good luck with that autofocus from decades past. For photos, I could go for it, but video? You selling people junk. YouTube became lazy at making money on Fuji Church.
