This is a superb test video. Really good stuff. Please never stop making more videos.

Love this colors, I do not understand why some people have videos on youtube of the XT-3, and their colors tend to pink and magenta, but your video looks more Cinematic, better balanced, good video I enjoy! Thanks!

Your channel is a goldmine for the XT3

Great images. Try using the “baked in” Eterna with the 400% dynamic range setting in camera. This will give you a base iso of 640 but a couple more stops of dynamic range. Cheers.

Hey mate, love your style. Super relaxed and well informed. Cheers.

Great demonstration. The footage looks awesome. Thx.
I would also like to see the difference between 420 and 422 when you get the Ninja V.
Cheers

Hi, you have got yourself a new subscriber :-) I have a question. I would like to start using LUTs on my XT3. Is it, in your opinion, necessary to shoot in at least 10bit depth internally to use F log and then LUTs to prevent the colors from the bending effect? Or is it enough to shoot in 8bit? Does it help to set up higher bitrate? Thanks very much!

Great video!
I thought this sensor would generate a lot of moiré, but I didn't notice it in your test. What you think about this matter? Thanks.

great vid man - nice to see so much footage, comparisons, and examples in such a short time - no wasted time - you're really not living up to your name ;) - anyhoo, subbed and would love to see lots more xt3 -

hypothetical:
you have an x-t3 and no lenses - someone offers you five xf autos of your choice or the two mkx cines - what do you choose?

Hi, very helpful video! Thank you! I’m struggling with exposure for F Log. I expose to the right using the spot-meter: I turn on the zebras and pump up the iso (or ajust the variable ND) and bring the exposure all the way up just until before the zebras appear. Sometimes I end up over exposing up to 2 stops (?!). But I’m not sure if this is right. I would love to hear how you expose your footage, maybe you can even make a video on the subject? Thank you again!

Hows the rolling shutter or jello effect

[domgrimard]

The Eterna LUT is in camera as well, my question is, are you able to use it when you'Re shooting but still record a FLOG file. Just so that you can see better contrast and saturation when you're shooting but still be able during post prod to manipulate the image the way you want. Thank !

Great video~! how do you expose f-log? do you just expose regularly to 0? zebra setting? any tips will help! Thank you again!

[neoterixx]

Great stuff! What are your autofocus settings for video?

[YungTamu]

which lens should I buy for this camera, for a music video purpose, I need a good portrait like F/1.4 and wide enough.

Love the vibe of this video, simple and clean. Can you do a video on the XT3's rolling shutter??? I have the XH1 and the rolling shutter is terrrrible. I plan on trading it in for the XT3. Thanks man. Btw, you got a new subscriber!! Very chill vibe on your videos.

[dmytrovisk]

hey man, thanks for sharing. I did notice strong aliasing in here hair against the window though. Is that a problem with XT-3?

[lenzyruffin]

Very helpful. Just subbed. Keep up the great work.

[doorjarne]

What kind of a stabilizer did you use?

Great test. Only way to edit ALL-I smoothly with your 2018 Macbook Pro is to get an eGPU addtionally. Otherwise no fun to do anything at all. I'm running a 2018 MBP with an Vega 64 eGPU and it's buttery smooth in FCPX editing ALL-I 400Mbps in HEVC.
