Is the X70 Fujifilms BEST travel camera? 

I honestly don't mind the noise from Fuji sensors, but when I shot Sony the noise seemed way more.... abrasive

@@gregorybissell4255 It's the X-Trans sensor as the color array is meant to mimic silver halide and isn't the Bayer array everyone else but Phase One uses. To me ISO 1600 feels like Kodak Plus-X and Kodachrome and ISO 3200 Tri-x and Ilford HP5.

Thank you my friend :)

Mattias Burling en faite tu est francais car jai impression"p que ton accent est okis tourner vers la france que langleteere ?

I love the grit look also! Makes the pics look incredible!

And good to see somebody not afraid of "noise"

Yes you can. You can also process a new jpeg in camera from the raw and change film simulation as well as add them in Lightroom. Lots of possibilities.

Thanks for the quick response! That's great to hear. I know some cameras prevent you from using "effects" of that sort when shooting RAW+JPEG. Quick follow up: If I process a RAW file in camera as you mentioned, it saves a new JPEG. Does it also keep the original RAW for even further processing if desired?

Yes.

I play alot with the contrast in Lightroom. I liked my lx100 alot for video. For stills it was ok but not as nice as the x70.

Im making a video on that very question that will be uploaded tonight :)

Depends on what you are using it for and how you like to shoot.I obviously choose this. Both are good.

thanks for the quick response!

Wow, Om trying to sell one and can't even get $300 for it.. plus there are plenty on eBay for way less than $1000.

Probably better to buy an old Nikon 50mm lens. Adapting to Nikon is difficult.

Thanks for the input!

Lowering the iso lowers the exposure as well.

yes, but its more than that in reality. At f8 set to 3m a 18mm lens gives a depth of field of 1m to infinity. At f2.8 its about 2-6m. This is what zone focusing means and has been called so long before autofocus points where invented :)

Mattias Burling THANK YOU! So Zone Focusing in photography terms, not in Fuji Feature terms cuz the camera did come with "Zone" focusing but that's more the auto-focus points on the screen. WOW. SO COOL. Thanks so much Mattias!

French Bulldog.

without a removable lens, what is the need you see for having that ability ?

Its a good screen so no big issues.

thank you. i ask because i have had problems with other cams with good screens as well (including mobile phones). the bright light just obliterates the image.

That's always a risk.

Ive had both. The x70 is always with me. The x-t10 needed a bag.

Its cool. But I prefer the x20.

@@gearreallydoesntmatter But whats the difference appart from the viewfinder?

It's a little faster.

Sometimes, but using it at waist level is worth it. Its such a wide field of view anyway that its less needed.

Mattias Burling ty man. Great pics btw. The b&w one of the bicycles was awesome.

It's the Fuji original.

Mattias Burling thanks!

Jaco van Lith Nooo, flash must stay. No need for viewfinder. All it needs is snap. If it gets that or the GR gets a tilt screen. Then the ultimate street camera is born.

Depends, do you need the zoom and can you live with a smaller sensor. They are very different.

DruMeister want to out my two cents in. I own both and find that the G7 is terrific for videos due to zoom ability while filming, and being able to use the touch screen to focus which I discovered accidentally is useful to do pull focusing which looks great at the wide aperture! However the picture quality at JPEG mode anyways and the film simulation modes of the X70 both are visually discernible, particularity at modest ISO and up ( umm like ISO 800 and up ) I do have to say the canon is more pocketable and versatile but in terms of sheer enjoyment of camera/person interaction and thoughtful stills shooting, the Fuji is definitely the one. The Canon has a remarkable video capability which I do use frequently and it's video quality is excellent even at 720p. Although it does doe higher definition but the file sizes get out of hand for me at 1080p. So like all photography quandaries the answer is always 'it depends!' In this case it's video and all round versatility versus better picture quality, ISO performance and fun film simulation modes with nice old school dslr controls.

No phone can even touch a real camera.

@@gearreallydoesntmatter ok, about photos sure, plus in low light, but count that iPhone 7 record 4k with OIS and it has IP67. But I want primary photo... So..

@@einarjungmann273 it records crap 4K and using it is absolute pain.

@@gearreallydoesntmatter I have canon 5D Mark II and I am thinking about to carry with me all day some pocket camera. This x70 I found about 355$. Is it good deal?

Sounds like an ok price imo.

Jaco van Lith The flash is one of the best features. It must stay.

Flash ??? Mister Mattias you do not show/make flash photoos ! So what is the super profit of it ?

Jaco van Lith I take alot of flash images. This is a pocket camera with a leaf shutter... flash is a must.

The shown images are no flash photographs. Please show in your next video the examples of flash photogrhy with the X 70. Leaf-, focal plane-, rotary shutter or even shutterless, on every camera a flash unit can be used. I do not understand, you indicate the fact of the leaf shutter of your favourite camera.. The FujifilmX 70 is no compact camera; it is a camera with small demension, but with the normal APS-C sensor. For wedding photography the X70 is the perfect tool. Easy to use, even nice to hand over to guests of the wedding, while I have a coffee break.

It is a compact camera. A flash + leaf shutter = magic and super fast sync speed. I have already made 3 videos about the X70 and there is flash photography in them.
