Panasonic LX10 vs FujiFilm XF10: Some Ramblings // 18 

Xf10 Auto focus issues. Menu-set up 2- power management- select “ high performance “ give it a try

I love that your son came in and you just kept motoring. Good for you. I am still wondering if I would get on with the XF 10, pocketability and start up time are important to me. Hmm

Really enjoy your video ❤ thanks for a lot of information about these 2 cameras

Nice comparison. The XF10 is appealing; I have the older Fujifilm XQ2 (2/3" sensor; f/1.8-4.9; 25-100mm) and it's still a great pocket camera. The LX10 has some nice features like 4K Photo and focus stacking. Horses for courses....

What was the in between camera you mentioned? Can't seem to find your follow up video.

Bottom line. Xf10 has top quality photos and high iso performance. The autofocus is not that reliable. Hopefully fuji does a firmware update. But for the price you cant beat it. Period

I pretty much replaced a Nikon 1 kit with an LX10. I get the same primes with better performance and honestly a better menu system. Keep in mind I basically only shot with a 28 and 50 rough equivalent primes, this also gives me a fairly quick 70 ish on top of the rest. I wanted an XF10, but I think 35 is too wide, much less 28 as my only option. With 35 you stay clear of most distortion and have room to crop slightly to hit 40mm or so that's a more comfortable frame for me. The gr iiix has been like the perfect choice for me when I tried it...but I'm not looking to spend 800-900 USD on a pocket camera right now so the LX10 stays.

I saw on a video on the LX10 you can use the front ring for focus, that you can set the zoomrocker to go directly from 28 to 35 to 50 mm etc. and that it even remembers the last focal length used when you power it on (if you want). I was wondering, can I use the LX10 to always have it on 28 or 35mm, leave it on F8 quickly switch to Manual mode and zone-focus? In theory it looks very doable, but I can't try one in real life and see if it's actually fast to do or if it's at all awkward because maybe the focus ring turns turns too slow or something.

great review

The fact that the equivelent aperture of the lx10 at 24mm equivalent is faster than the xf10 kills the xf10.

I had an LX100, I want an LX10 to match up with my G7.

i own both but the king is Canon M200 with 22mm F2 Pancake!

Thanks bro

Sorry, but I am not sure of exactly what you are trying to find. It might be cool if you listed out the must haves and the nice to haves. So far I know you want something pocketable with the ability to have manual ISO, shutter, aperture. Nice to haves would be zoom and sensor size, but only as it related to image quality/sharpness. Low light capabilities as a significant factor, so maybe max aperture 2.8. And Unfixed screen is also a nice to have. The two cameras you are looking at so far are in the $300 to $400 range. I am not sure if a ILC with a pancake lens is something you would consider. And I am not sure if you have a megapixel requirement. New or Used? Maybe checking out RX100 or LX100 might be worthwhile, and maybe even some G7s or G9s. Looking forward to see what the other camera you are considering is.

$300 dollars? hmm. weird...here the LX10 is $600-700 vs the XF10 is $400 only. And mind you the LX10 is portable cinematic beast (not some good video shooter); I always use it with and ND filter mounted on a Zhiyun crane M. I have had it for 3 years. I have also looked at the XF10 just to get access to the fabled Fuji color profiles but never pulled the trigger on that as I have too much cameras already & my 2014 SL1 with a 24 mm pancake seems like the XF10.

:-D Love your boy :-) A Sony type o guy :-D

6:44 1” loser sensor has awful bokeh even at f/1.4. Fuji colors blew the Lumix away too.

completely different prices

A bit confusing. I can't seem to capture the point of you rambling, without comparing how the two cameras perform. I am actually interested on how the xf10 would perform in your tests/photowalks.

You 2 are so cute
