They are like 100 bucks. I have tried a few cables I have, but 400 mb/s is greyed out with all of them. I can do 4k 60 200 mb/s though. Yeah there was talk of that on a thread about 3 months ago on here. You Had to basically buy the Atomos HDMI cable to make it happen. I had the same problem if you remember with a Mimi HDMI when I tried to update my firmware on my A7s. I had to go buy a 20 dollar Samsung mini HDMI, the 3 of them I Had at home, none worked. They are missing a wire in the cheap ones, and the connectors don't really make good contact to start with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyclingBen Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Best Buy had an open box Samsung t5 drive in the open box section when I went there Sunday... I bought it and plugged it into the X-T3 tonight for gits and shiggles. The X-T3 asked me how I would like to connect, I tried all the options and each time the camera would switch for a second and then the drive would power off. I’m not good enough with software/firmware coding, but it appears the USB-C is at least capable of connecting to external devices... hmmm IronFilm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
androidlad Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 NDA lift on X-T3 sensor, it's now listed on Sony Semicon website, as IMX571 https://www.sony-semicon.co.jp/products_en/IS/sensor2/products/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolf33d Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Does someone has a link that says which Fuji lens have good AF tracking performance in video, and which are to be avoided? Edit: answering myself: https://alikgriffin.com/a-complete-list-of-fujifilm-x-mount-lenses/ Edit2: this gives info for contrast AF only. Not relevant. My question still stands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No IS and no IBIS though All the 1.4 primes work ok and actually improved with X-T3. But they're highly unpredictable. You could wait for the new 16-80 f/4 zoom with OIS.

Attila Bakos Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Is this true for the 16mm as well? It's newer than the 23 or the 35 1.4, it was actually introduced after the 16-55 2.8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frontfocus Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 it depends on what you want to do with it. The 16-55mm and 50-140mm are some of the fastest lenses in the lineup. The f/2.0 primes too. The 16mm f/1.4 ist faster than the other 1.4 lenses and also not quite as loud, but it's audible, but a bit slower than the lenses named before. But even in low light I didn't find the X-T3 struggle with the f/1.4 lenses. At least not yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsalisbury Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I have had my X-T3 for a week, and while I think my GH5 touchscreen was more responsive and the menu system more intuitive, I am loving the camera's overall image and video quality. This video from DP Review shows some of the X-T3's video quality and showcases a number of lenses and autofocus capabilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think that ibis is still essential even on a gimbal. There are heaps of micro-jitters in the footage that are usually smoothed out by ibis. Really hard to get rid of it in post.

It definitely is. But honestly this is the best in camera sharpening I've ever seen. Would shoot documentaries like that. For a less video look you can still dial down sharpening and NR to -4 and use some diffusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebrothersthre3 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Yeah in regards to it looking video what was sharpening and NR at if anything? I really love the log profile with the eterna Lut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really love the log profile with the eterna Lut. Looks pretty much like standard settings. Log + Eterna with sharpening and nr dialed down looks great up to ISO3200. At ISO6400 some low contrast detail gets blurred. Very much like the A73 does, but at least with less artifacts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably one of those Pro Mist filters would knock down the video look. Impressive camera for sure. Seems to be a great travel camera for sure. They have a winner no doubt. Way better option than the PK4 for most people. But the PK4 is a great learning tool if you want to get serious about CIne stuff just like the original one was, is.. Both cameras pretty amazing for the cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ronin S is really really nice, had a chance to use it the other day. But for really steady shots 1 handed is inferior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footage was smooth as anything and it was because of the ibis. I put other cameras on there and it just wasn't near the same. Ibis is a necessity. wolf33d 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladimir Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 one-handed gimbals are great and ibis isnt necessary (all from 0:55 is shot with original crane/xt2/18-55kit lens): thebrothersthre3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
