Dynamic range setting on Fujifilm XT2, XT3, and XT4 cameras for still photography and video. Dynamic range is a complex topic that involves ISO, camera processing, and RAW files. There's more to learn and future videos will explore the topic in additional detail.

I have been a Fuji shooter for more than 5 years now and this is the first time someone is explaining this to me in a clear and concise way. Thank you.

@bardofhighrenown 2 года назад

I definitely turned DR 400% on after seeing the results. What I really like about this feature (at least in the firmware I have), it doesn't limit your ISO when you have 400% DR enabled, but instead will put an icon on screen to let you know that you're only getting 100% or 200%, so that way I can shoot below 640 if I need too without digging through the menus to disable it and missing the shot.

@SamBorgman 3 года назад

@@equisetuminc Tell me something. Have you been overwhelmed by the menu of Fuji camera? I've never had problem figuring out an electronic device before this and it's been upsetting lol. If as an engineer you've struggled too, it would make me feel better about it lol I bought my XT4 like 2 weeks ago and I'm still figuring out the settings. I see endless opportunities where the menus could've been made much clearer. How is DR 100% and 200% just 1 stop apart. You'd think it doubles the range. That's just one example.

@frankzhao8352 3 года назад

Wow, mind blowing. Thanks so much for the detailed explanation! I have never understood the raw file effects and I've shot at DR 100% for the past 6 years. I am just now realizing for almost all my applications, I should have been using DR 200 or 400. Fuji's xtrans filter does such a good job with noise that for almost everything except still landscapes, the noise tradeoff is negligible. This video should be a must see for any fujifilm owner

@bh9262 2 года назад

@UAEmirates 3 года назад

I don't think anyone else will explain the HDR on Fujifilm with this deep details, great job.

@shifteleven 3 года назад

Thanks for showing this off. What's also fun is to compare a properly exposed raw image with DR400 at ISO 640 to an image underexposed by two stops at ISO 160. If you take the ISO 160 and raise the exposure by two stops, you get the same image as the DR 400. And if you lower the exposure of the DR 400 by two stops you get the ISO 160 image. That's because that's how DR works. It underexposes the image (to protect those highlights) and then saves that raw file with metadata that tells editing tools to boost the base exposure by two stops. At least that was my experience when I used programming libraries to read and demosaic fuji files (thanks dcraw) with the DR setting.

I immediately thought of the uses when shooting in snow. I shoot deer often in a snowy backdrop in the winter and this sounds like a great benefit to keep from blowing out the snow details while still exposing for the deer (which I error towards in my exposures).

Hi Chris! Was this video helpful? Definitely it was! It was especially helpful for understanding the process of camera creating the RAW file containing metadata that refer to the DR tool, something that one can't find in user manual! That is what I LOVE your videos for! You go beyond mere overviews or "filming a user guide", so to say. Do all photographers take interest in tech points?- not, of course, as modern cameras provide good shots in vast majority of shooting conditions automatically. But there always a room for improvements. And the better we know our tools, the better results we can achieve. You help it a lot by doing your videos and sharing your profound knowledge of tech aspects of photo gear with us! Many thanks, really!!

I’m new to Fujifilm after decades of Canon and Nikon use. I think one of the main reasons for the change to Fujifilm was the design of their cameras. I feel like I’m back in the 1970s and 80s now having the use of dials on the top plate like cameras of those decades. The other reason for changing gear is the utterly stunning results from Fuji lenses. Your enthusiasm is infectious and your presentation skills are first class. This video is an excellent example of those attributes. Thank you.

Same here. I’ve always left mine at 100%. Not anymore!

@JohnArmstrongPhotography 3 года назад

I’m no longer an ambassador, but I am one who said that DR has no benefit to RAW files. So yes you are seeing a difference in the RAW images shot at different DR setting in post production, so the presumption is that there is benefit, but that is incorrect. If you are shooting RAW, you would not shoot those images in that way, you would shoot to protect your highlight, then in post, raise your shadow by two stops. Which is exactly the same thing as DR400. So for example the marshmallow image should never be shot that way in RAW in first place, you should protect your highlights, making sure you got detail remaining in your shadows to push in post. DR settings are designed for JPG shooting, which is not relying on post production.

@ericzager6548 3 года назад

@@JohnArmstrongPhotography How does "protect the hilights" match up against "expose to the right?" Is ETR outdated? Or is the idea to do both, exposing to the right as far as possible without risking the hilights?

@JohnArmstrongPhotography 3 года назад

@@ericzager6548 thanks Eric, protecting your highlights is effectively the same thing as “expose to the right.” By exposing to the right, you are choosing to protect or prioritize your highlights over your shadows, but most of the time with modern cameras, you can maintain a high level of shadow detail and protect highlights. If you wanted a high key image, with lots of details in the shadows and wanted or didn’t mind blowing out your highlights for a particular look, you’d be effectively exposing to the left. To use DR settings with RAW is to fundamentally not understand what RAW gives you and how to shoot it. DR settings bake in an exposure adjustment to different parts of your image in camera. In the examples in this video, both marshmallow and window, they are exposed to the left. If a low key image is what is required, rather lower your exposure in camera, protecting highlights, then as you see fit, raise your mid tones and shadows, creating the look you want in post.

@jwanger142 3 года назад

@@JohnArmstrongPhotography but didn’t he use the exact same F stop/SS/ISO for all three exposures but only changing from DR100 to 200 to 400? Thus bringing the RAW from the 3 shots into LR or C1 and then we saw that even tho all 3 had the same triangle they definitely processed differently.
