frontfocus Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Specs sound like they improved a lot of small things where the X-T3 wasn't perfect. Really looking forward to this camera! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azagey Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Any idea if it's 10 bit 4:2:2 or still 4:2:0 like the X-T3? Emanuel and Sharathc47 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainbowmerlin Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Fujifilm X-T4 press release leaked (by nokishita, I got this from the report on FujiRumors): The X-T4 uses the back-illuminated 26.1MP X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor and a high-speed image processing engine, the X-Processor 4. Combined with FUJIFILM’s colour reproduction technology, the X-T4 delivers a wide variety of options so you can recreate a scene exactly as you remember it. IBIS provides 5-axis 6.5 stop image stabilisation when used with 18 out of 29 XF / XC lenses. It offers many new components, including new materials to the base part, a refined layout of the shutter’s shock-absorbing structure and newly developed gyro sensors that boast approx. 8 times the detection accuracy of the IBIS unit in the X-H1. This particular mechanism assists night photography and sports photography, and also helps video recording in situations prone to camera shake. The new IBIS unit uses magnetic force rather than springs, which boosts functionality while making it approx. 30% smaller and 20% lighter than X-H1’s image stabilisation mechanism. Thanks to newly developed high-torque coreless DC motor, the ultra-fast focal plane shutter has the capability to shoot up to world’s fastest 15fps in burst mode, and has advanced response performance with a shutter release lag of just 0.035 seconds. The shutter unit also boasts double the durability with 300,000 actuations and offers shutter noise approx. 30% quieter compared to the X-T3. The 1.62 mil dots vari-angle monitor allows for more creative and versatile shooting styles. The LCD/EVF can be boosted in three different ways, Low Light Priority – allowing users to see the subject clearly in low light, Resolution Priority – displaying even the fine details of your subject and Frame Rate Priority which minimises blur in the viewfinder when shooting a moving subject. The eyecup now has a locking mechanism to prevent tearing or dislodgement. The Boost / Normal modes are now joined by the Economy mode, which saves the power to increase the battery life. The X-T4 features “ETERNA Bleach Bypass” a new Film Simulation mode, that uses FUJIFILM’s unique technology to provide versatile colour tones. The new mode simulates “bleach bypass,” which is a traditional processing technique for silver halide films; creating images with low saturation and high contrast for a special atmosphere. Highlight and shadow tones from -2 to +4 can now be adjusted by 1/2 stops, instead of 1 stop, allowing for finer tonality, and White Balance now has “White Priority” and “Ambience Priority” options in addition to “AUTO.” The “White Priority” mode reproduces a stronger white, while the “Ambience Priority” produces a warmer tone. When “RAW” is selected, users now choose the non-reversible “Compressed” option in addition to the reversible “Lossless Compressed.” A new algorithm and phase detection AF’s processing capability has led to autofocus performance as fast as 0.02 seconds. This ensures that users can capture and track a subject moving at high speed, especially when combined with the continuous shooting performance of 15fps in post view and 8fps in live view. Tracking AF performance has also undergone serious enhancement. The tracking success rate has been doubled compared to the X-T3. The Face / Eye AF performance has also been dramatically improved. This enhanced tracking ability has made focusing and taking portraits even easier than ever before. The X-T4 is capable of recording Full HD high-speed video at 240P, producing up to 10x slow-motion effect. IBIS is effective when combined with the electronic image stabilization function (DIS) for use in the video mode, and brings even more image stabilisation, which is essential for users shooting video whilst walking. The “IS (Image Stabilisation) Boost” mode mitigates gentle camera shakes, enabling stabilised fixed-point video recording without a tripod. The stills and video modes now have separate menus and the video-only Quick Menu (Q Menu) button has enhanced the camera’s simplicity while recording video. A ”Movie optimised control” function has been introduced; users can adjust exposure with the command dial as well as the touchscreen panel. With this function, user can switch the STILL / MOVIE mode dial on the top panel to swiftly shift into video recording with stored video settings. Video in the same format can be recorded on to two SD cards at the same time as backup. And the F-Log View Assist function has been added to correct low-saturation / low-contrast video while recording F-Log. Video is converted equivalent to BT.709 for display to make it easier to attain correct exposure in video recording. The “Fix movie crop magnification” function fixes the video crop rate to prevent changes in the angle of view when switching to a different video mode. An “MIC jack setting” on the camera can be switched input level between MIC level and LINE level. The camera supports external microphones as well as LINE level input from external audio equipment. sanveer and Emanuel 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OH!! Is that the first time a stills camera has offered a line level option? (hope it is pro line level, not consume grade "line level") Would rather they have supported timecode input instead.

sanveer Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Who else thinks that this puts pressure on the GH6 to deliver more bang for the buck, especially considering that it will have have the smaller sensor disadvantage, and thus unable to justify a higher price than this?

IronFilm Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Very little difference in size between a MAR MFT sensor and an APS-C/S35 sensor. But yes, I can predict the GH6 just increased its odds of copying features from the X-T4: dual recording to SD cards, line in for audio, etc Juank 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with the em1 mark iii. It has some nice features but it doesn't have anything that justifies $100 more than the rumored price of the x-t4. sanveer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
androidlad Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 This is going to be controversial, Fujifilm removed headphone jack on the X-T4 body and put it on the grip instead (next to the pull tab), if you wanna use headphone with the body only, you might need USB-C adapter.

Good grief!! That is a big backwards step. Can't you use a headphone jack over USB like the Fuji X-T30 / X-T200 does?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panasonic may have to look for more features to throw in, or a price revision. The XT3 actually eats into both, the M43, as well as the Full Frame market, in many ways.

KnightsFan Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 What are some cases where people use the headphone jack on their DSLR/DSLM? I don't think I ever have. Either I'm running external audio, or it's not serious enough to need to need to tell whether something went wrong. neosushi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For B-roll I'm usually running a on camera mic, also I'll have a backup audio mic outside my external recorder in case something goes wrong.

colepat Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Looks like Fuji is giving you a free adapter? https://www.fujirumors.com/fujifilm-x-t4-has-no-headphone-jack-in-camera-but-comes-with-usb-c-adapter/ Honestly, fair enough—They're giving you an adapter. Still so hyped for this camera. IronFilm and Emanuel 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
