Fuji X-T2 Hands-On Field Test In New York City

In our initial preview of the Fuji X-T2, we were unable to shoot images and video. To make up for that, Fujifilm Canada flew us to New York to give the X-T2 a proper field test! See how Chris and Jordan found the handling and performance of Fuji's new flagship.

What an exceptional vid! I'm binge-watching vids of this FUJI model tonight and there is definitely no shortage of well done raving reviews, but this one, between Billy popping in, and running for the AF demo, and the shots of the 240Z and I feel like if I empty my already full shopping cart, this will be my forever camera.

Gentlemen, you do good work. Thanks for posting.

Great Video as usual. I did notice something odd though. The small boat which enters the frame around 10:14 seems to move in spurts ... Any particular reason for that ?

I always come to your channel when I want unbiased reviews on Fuji cameras. You guys always cut through the hype. Great review and amazing photos. Happy to know that Fuji has finally caught up with autofocus.!

in vertical position holding the camera low close to the ground 3:14, wouldn't it be more comfortable if you used your thumb to push the shutter? just a thought

Hopefully Fuji will listen and allow F-log to be recorded internally, it's such a waste to let it be exclusive for HDMI external recorder. I know that 8-bit 420 is not ideal for log but at least it gives the users the option like Sony and Panasonic do.

11:28 wow, the color.
Is the image from the XT2 edited?

Hi guys !
 When is the full review coming ?
thanks and keep up the good work :-D

I really love the colors and composition of 14:08. This episode made me interested in Fuji!!

Great review I have 2 questions, I am mostly a photographer so I am thinking about xpro2. first question is will the xpro2 with firmware updates focus as fast as xt-2 second question in your video at 11:29 the comparison between the sony and fuji is crazy. color and clarity on fuji in my opinion is MUCH better? was there a setting issue on the sony. can't think there is that much difference in the two cameras?? I am not bashing sony. but for myself I am leaning toward xpro2 and maybe a G7 for recording video?? Thank you for the video and I am hopeful to get your insight here.

What's the brand/type of that black car at 9:30?

[masterofpc]

How does the autofocusing of the Panasonic G7 & G85 compare to that of other mirrorless cameras like the Sony A6300 (or in this case, the Fujifilm X-T2)? I have heared very positive things about Panasonics AF, but I want to be sure and have something to rely on.

[ErikNaso]

Great info on the X-T2 guys! .... Thank you Billy! haha. Nice to see Fuji designed the camera to not overheat.

[hidekigomi]

Fuji is the brand that doesn't come to my mind first, like Olympus, but it's the one I'm falling love with and I feel like I have to have once I see reviews like this and all gorgeous results. NYC certainly shined in evening with XT2 - amazing shots. Chris looks great in NYC as always but did anyone say Jordan looked damn handsome especially with Acros profile?? Forget those models.

[Tiagocouto]

Can you do a comparision between A6300 and Fuji T2 about picture and video quality? Many thanks xD

[susy]

How is back button focus with xt2? R u able to decoupled focus with shutter? Was not able to do that with xt-1

[beltenebrosgr]

Jordan, could you please tell me what kind of filter you used on the 16-55 lense of XT-2 and what are the best filters using for video in general?

[AnastasTarpanov]

Another amazing vide, funny, honest and with a lot of useful facts, thanks guys!
