Making me glad I'm a gen behind in a way, lol.
whatever you have to tell yourself
Yeah, I figured that would be the limitation. Is it possible to bind the selection to the Function menu or a custom key?
I'm bound to slightly catch up at some point. People probably wouldn't even notice what I've been using lately.whatever you have to tell yourself

Makes sense, they have to get a chip, program or license libraries, these things take time. But as long as they have it in the pipeline.Fuji dropped a timetable of "3 years" in their latest interview for machine learning AF. fuuuuuuuuuuuu
I have a ton of geese and cormorants around to test on, looking forward to it.
The 28mm angle of view is pretty nice as well. It's more about what feels better and will make you get out there more.I like the discreteness of it and most of my photos in general are snapshots. That lens is amazing, Ricoh files are easier to process since they come out as DNGs. For Fuji RAF's I need to do the extra step of putting them through Iradient X-Transformer. Only thing holding me back is no built in OVF like the old film GRs has. It's personal reasons entirely. Both are amazing cameras.
I don't have any animals to test mine on :(Can confirm animal EyeAF works really well on dogs and also terrified baby owls.

The camera feels the same so far.
did you see this video from yesterday?Been seriously considering selling my X100F and getting the GRIII.
Thanks, will watch!
It works fine. I'm just worried about the weather sealing. The part that touches the front element is intact, just the ring is cracked.
I'd say I would never let my kid hold my lenses.I've thought about that. I'm going to take it into a local shop and see what they have to say. I'm definitely going to carry my spare UV filter with me when I'm using that lens!
What do you have to say now, UV filter people?
Drop that bad probably wouldn't have saved the lens even with a UV filter in it to be honest. Not to mention you would have a broken filter jammed into the lens.I've thought about that.

BUT HOW THE FUCK DID A FLY GET INTO THE LENS?!!!https://www.lensrentals.com/blog/2019/04/removing-fly-from-weather-sealed-canon-70-200mm/
A reassuring reminder that dust inside your lens means nothing to your final images.

I'll just echo this. It would only have added to the issues.Drop that bad probably wouldn't have saved the lens even with a UV filter in it to be honest. Not to mention you would have a broken filter jammed into the lens.
Filter ring is cracked, still usable though.I'll just echo this. It would only have added to the issues.
As it is, like, what's actually wrong?

I'm not interested in either camera but I watched the whole thing just because of how well it was put together. Almost no voice over, tons of sample pics...a true rarity these days.
Throw some superglue on that badboy and move on with life. I would suspect, however, that plastic piece is 1) easy to replace and 2) pretty cheap to fix.

Like I can recommend you some stuff, but you might hate me for them not being cheap. I'm pretty much the most consistent Sony and Fuji shooter in here. Also what specifically do you shoot? Also keep in mind some of the Fuji lenses aren't exactly great for video AF because they have a clunky transition that people complain about.I've been planning to pick up a nice camera for the past few years and I finally feel like it's time. I was leaning toward the a7iii but now I'm leaning more towards the X-T3 for the 4k60p. Do any of you have experience working with that setting? Any lens recommendations for the X-T3?
Well if I go for the Fuji it should give me a little more room for a nice lens as opposed to the Sony.Like I can recommend you some stuff, but you might hate me for them not being cheap. I'm pretty much the most consistent Sony and Fuji shooter in here.
What's your budget? I like the 2.8 16-55 personally so if you could swing that it will do a lot of what you need. It's usually around 850 I think used.Well if I go for the Fuji it should give me a little more room for a nice lens as opposed to the Sony.
I'm flexible on budget. I'd rather not go overboard but that seems manageable. Is it comparable to owning a few lenses or would it be better to hit up the 35mm f2 and maybe the kit lens and/or something like the 56mm 1.2?What's your budget?

What is it that you're shooting. I wouldn't use the 16-55 for instances where I'd use the 56 1.2 for example. 16-55 is an all round good zoom for video work and event work, street photography if you're not comfortable with primes and the occasional portrait if you want something on the wider end and don't have a prime for it. 56 1.2 is a great portrait lens and for low light situations. I actually have the 35F2 and haven't used it for a year probably 50mm is not my favorite focal length at all, I prefer 35 (23mm) over it. The 35 is overall a very good lens, just not something I pack around these days and looking to trade it in.I'm flexible on budget. I'd rather not go overboard but that seems manageable.

I would be using it for video mostly and wouldn't really need the 56, It's just when I was looking at their lenses it seemed really cool. Usually it takes me a long time to pull the trigger on gear (mostly music) because I never want to make the "wrong" decision. It seems like the a7iii is more popular and so it makes me feel a little more nervous about the XT3 when they're both probably dynamite.What is it that you're shooting.

Both cameras are great. If I didn't enjoy working with 42mp images so much I'd get an A7III, the X-T3 is perfectly fine though. The video quality is excellent along with the photo quality.I would be using it for video mostly and wouldn't really need the 56, It's just when I was looking at their lenses it seemed really cool.

That last one is a banger. Thanks for all your help. Looked through some of your other shots and really liked them as well.Both cameras are great.

Granted this being said I've been shooting on my A7RII more than my X-T3 these days, but both are great cameras.
Thanks, I think as long as you're not doing landscape work with a lot of greens the Fuji should be fine. I love both though. Menelaus and I are pretty much Fuji to Sony converts though we switched for different reasons. So pretty much ask us for both sides. nitewulf has great advice too though as a Fuji shooter.That last one is a banger. Thanks for all your help.

I don't change stuff that often actually. I pretty much have most of what I need to change up just mapped to face buttons. My only bad menu dive seems to be the format card option. Though I'll admit the second gen bodies are a bit of a nightmare ergonomically. I like both manufacturers for different reasons, but I'll admit it's easier/funner to shoot on Fuji. Though it's not much of a hinderance to me since I'm starting to use the A7R2 for events more these days within reason.On the other side of the coin I switched from Sony to Fuji, having gotten fed up with Sony menus and general... cumbersome operations. I felt like I needed to change settings too often with a Sony camera and never really knew where to look for shit in their menus. Fuji? Diaaaaaals.
