X-T4 Mirrorless Camera Body - Black

My wife and I are long time Fujifilm camera users, having started with the X T1 and X100 (we now have the X100V). As each new model of the X Tx series as been released we have generally upgraded and the X T4 is the current best they have produced. My wife upgraded from the X T2 and I upgraded from the X T3 and we have a good range of lenses (from our 23mm prime to the 100 to 400mm Zoom). We mainly shoot still photographs, so the video features are not the main reason we use this camera but it is very competent. Pros: 1. IBIS makes using my 16 to 55 f/2.8 (the sharpest lens in my collection but without image stabilization) safer and ensures sharper results. Testing showed I get about 5 stops of stabilization. I can shoot at substantially slower shutter speeds. 2. Improved auto focus performance. Not as good as my Canon R5, but more than good enough for the majority of uses I have, even some fairly challenging wild life shots. 3. Beautifully made and is a camera that makes you want to take pictures. 4. USB C socket in camera charging. 5. Longer battery life with the new NP-W235 battery. I easily get a days shooting with the new battery, whereas the older battery would often need to be changed for a fully charged one 2/3 of the way through the day. 6. Superb out of camera JPGs and video. 7. New 'floppy' screen is more flexible for those awkward shots and video. 8. Feels more responsive. Cons: 1. Slightly changed body size and shape, so none of the original cases fit the camera. 2. That new battery means all your older batteries are no longer usable, so you have to buy new spare batteries (luckily my X100V uses the older battery).. 3. External charger not included in the package. 4. Auto focus and tracking trickier to setup than it should be. 5. Headphone socket requires a dongle (provided). 6. Expensive. You can now buy a full frame camera for less than the cost of this camera, however the lenses for this camera are lighter, smaller and cheaper than the equivalent full frame lenses. Think of the total cost of the system rather than just the cost of the body. Summary: If you have the X T2 or earlier, this is a no brainer upgrade. If you have the X T3 (which is still available) you need to think more carefully about whether the improvements are worth the inconvenience of buying new batteries and a new battery charger. A lot of Fujifilm lenses have OIS, so the IBIS is a nice luxury but I love the way it improves my shots for that 16 to 55 f/2.8. Note also that the sensor is the same sensor that is in X T3 (it is an upgrade from the X T2 which has the 24.3 MP sensor). If you are looking to get into serious photography, the quality and output from this camera is amazing. APS C cameras ultimately have built in disadvantages with respect to full frame cameras (noise due to lower light gathering capability etc.) but this camera produces amazing pictures with very low noise for a smaller sensor. Note that lenses for APS C camera are smaller and lighter than their equivalent full frame lenses, so they are very good for wildlife. The 100 to 400 mm lens I noted above is the equivalent of a 150 mm to 600 mm lens in the full frame world, which pulls in some great shots. Those lighter lenses mean you are also more likely to have them with you than their larger (and more expensive) full frame counterparts. Overall this a beautiful camera that is a pleasure to use. This is one of those cameras that gets out of the way when you want to take pictures.

Probably the closest thing to the perfect hybrid camera. The X-T4 is the best camera for those who like me take photography and videography seriously. It is an amazing little package, the video is amazing, the photos are amazing as well, the system includes all the lenses you need. The Stills/Movie dial is genius, it cleans up the menus and makes everything much easier to setup quickly. The ergonomics are improved from the X-T3, the battery life is doubled, the new shutter is quieter and rated for 300,000 actuations. The IBIS is fantastic as well. To be honest, the autofocus is great and works very well, but it's not near Sony or Canon, but Fuji is always working on it and it will keep improving it. I'd give it a solid distant third place in performance behind Canon as of right now. If you're going to use this camera mainly for video, only a few lenses work as expected and pull focus smoothly, accurately and with minimum focus breathing according to Fuji, the 18-55 F2.8-4, (which is my main video lens) the 50-140 F2.8 and 10-24 F4.0. So keep that in mind when choosing lenses. If you're using this camera for stills, this camera is the best APS-C camera on the market and it gives some more expensive full-frame cameras a run for their money. The way the lenses render color, sharpness and contrast is fantastic. Any XF lens, even the "kit" lens is a fantastic piece of kit, so select your lenses freely because all of them are fantastic.

This camera is absolutely perfect in almost every way. - beautiful images - easy intuitive interfaces for beginner, advanced , and pro users. - video quality is top notch - new flip screen is ideal - has touch screen - Fuji has a great lineup of lenses to accommodate every use case - high frame rate capture rates are incredible - very well thought out and fully capable camera. - small and compact in comparison to full frame DSLR’s Fuji has made improvements to make this a thoroughly rounded camera that does both photography and video very well and makes it worth investing to go beyond what a smartphone can do. Only caveat- the smartphone app that enables wireless transfers to phone could still use more improvements to make it a more frictionless user experience, but easily the easiest thing for Fuji to fix. The hardware and UI/UX on the camera itself is spot on. *Highly recommend!! FYI - moved to APSC format coming from a Nikon full frame format for the last 15 years. Have been waiting for the right camera to do so, and highly believe I’ve made the right decision. Now who will buy all my Nikon lenses and bodies... 🧐

I use this mainly for photography but when I do use it for video, they are just the bomb. I switched from Sony Alpha a600x and A7RIV. I can tell you that Fuji lenses are way more compact and they are laser sharp. I could not be happier. The biggest quirks with the camera is that it tries to hunt white balance more than my Sony’s did. A fix for this is just lock the white balance and adjust it in post assuming you have a grey card. Another issue is that the camera gets confused with the exposure setting in complex situations like sunsets and shooting a picture of a person in front of the sun. You will want to lock in your exposure using the AEL lock button. Note that you can configure this to be latched as in press once and it stays locked until pressed again. Definitely do this in the settings. Other than that, dual USB slots, Fuji JPEG color profiles, face/eye detection, slow/fast/HDR/bracket/slomo shooting and of course 4K video with IBIS. What is not to love about this camera?

I've had this less than a day so take my review for what it's worth. I'm a longtime photography enthusiast and mostly take pictures of nature, food/cooking, my baby, and baby-related things. But I like to take beautiful, professional-quality photos and camera phones don't always cut it (hey sometimes they do!). I grabbed the xt100 a couple years ago to introduce myself to fuji's mirrorless line (I hadn't purchased a new camera in a long time and had never used a mirrorless). But I didn't want to dive all the way into a more serious camera (e.g. xt2, xt3) until I was confident I'd love it and use it a lot. So I eyed the xt3 for a long time, but because I do not use a tripod, and prefer prime lenses (none of mine have OIS), I was worried about the lack of ibis in the xt3. So I eyed the XH1, but that seemed to have its cons as well according to reviews. And in all honesty the XT cameras are just better looking. So I just just kept playing with the xt100, taking 500 pictures of a single thing trying to get one non-blurry shot because the camera, I've since learned, is pretty slow, and I'm apparently a shaky person. I used a tripod now and then for food, but at some point the dumb camera's bottom was ripped out by the tripod mount because it, honestly, is just poorly built. So I was sad, and just gave up on cameras for a while and even though I had read some speculations about the XT4 a year or so ago, at some point I completely forgot about it and just used my camera phone all the time. When I saw the XT4 was already released AND had IBIS, I was so so so excited. I did all my reviewing and bought it asap (BTW it was delivered via Adorama through Amazon super fast - said it would be here the following Monday and got here Friday). As soon as I got it turned on and took a few snaps my mind was BLOWN. I had absolutely no idea how slow my the xt100 actually was until using this thing. The xt100 may as well be an alien artifact from another planet compared to the xt4. This camera is FAST. Takes 0 time to autofocus and snap, and all my pictures have been beautiful and crisp. Ibis is definitely doing its job. If the xt3 is this fast then I can see why people wouldn't care that much about IBIS, because it truly is fast lol. But the IBIS makes me feels way more confident that my shots won't be a haze, especially when I'm shooting my baby (I know, ibis doesn't help with a moving subject - but it's hard to take multiple pictures of one moment, as I did with the xt100, when a baby is moving all around, if that makes sense). Also, I don't recall the xt100 having a white-priority WB mode (maybe it did and I never realized it), but it's nice, really nice. In fact it's exactly what I try to accomplish in lightroom. I'll have to keep testing shots to see how it translates to my photography style, but right now I like it. Is the camera worth 1700? I don't know, depends on you I guess. It's a lot of money. I've read a lot of comments on other sites saying 1700 is too much for a non-full frame camera. But I don't know how that is decided lol. Since Fuji has said they're never going full frame, and if you've invested thousands of dollars into fuji lenses (and love their cameras, like I do), then I don't know if that rationale can apply to you. Fuji set their price at 1700 so here we are. It's is probably the max I'd be willing to spend as someone who doesn't have a lot of money lying around or shoot professionally. But considering I've been waiting over 2 years for Fuji to release a camera like this, for me it's worth it. Also, supposedly its IBIS is better than the other competing brands, and personally I want the best best best IBIS if I'm throwing down almost 2k for it.

In particular, the hand grip wasn't large enough (I have a medium-size hands), so I had to purchase a hand grip bracket separately. Same with the shutter release button - without a separately purchased one, it was quite uncomfortable to use. Especially for someone who came from a Canon DSLR (I didn't need to make a single tweak to improve my EOS 7D ergonomics - it was pretty much perfect out of the box... except that it's, of course, way bulkier and heavier than the mirrorless X-T4 and there's nothing you can do about that :)). That being said, after spending around $50 to get the extra accessories, I am very happy with the ergonomics of X-T4 and it's very comfortable to use now. Not going to write a tech review of the camera itself - there's a plenty of those available online, but FWIW - my experience with it thus far has been extremely positive: it survived a pretty rough travel with lots of sand, mud, salty ocean wind and splashes, heavy rain, etc and the weather sealing worked flawlessly! I love all the camera features and, of course, I got lots and lots of amazing footage - both stills and videos - out of it!

This is close to being the perfect aps-c for its price. I recently did a first impressions and test video on YouTube if you want my detailed experience and thoughts (Paul Antill - Fuji X-T4). You get Fuji’s amazing colors, crisp 4K and a great user interface. Unfortunately, it still suffers from many of Fuji’s older problems. For background, I was coming from the Fuji xh1 and Fuji xt20. I had relatively high expectations for the x-t4 and in many ways have been very impressed, in some other major ways, let down. I have filmed several projects using this camera with a variety of lenses and with different firmware updates. 4K 60fps, a flip out screen and 240fps are great new features. The improved bitrates and slightly better autofocus help too. That said, as a videographer and for the type of filming I do, I was let down by the overall still lackluster autofocus performance in video. Face and eye tracking, while better, is still very hit or miss. Cannon and Sony can do it very well and there are times when manual focusing is not easily done or practical. This is especially true when filming fast action shots or quickly moving subjects. I’m surprised that object tracking is available on photo mode, but not video. Even in a controlled studio setting, the camera still breathes when using face detection. In this respect, while better than the older Fuji cameras, it still is not good. I would rather sacrifice some 4K quality if it meant having better autofocus. Another important point to mention is the 4K 240fps. It’s incredibly cool but I wouldn’t use it professionally. It’s extremely soft and noticeably worse quality than regular 1080p. 4K 60 is great and what I primarily shoot on. It’s sharp and captures audio as well. You can slow it down about 3 times for some decent slo-mo as well. The downside, however, is that the camera will begin to overheat after about 25min of straight recording. During weddings, this was usually with the ceremony for me. Often times it could fight through it, especially with the screen set to off and an external battery hooked up. However, this is still worrying as I can’t really trust it. Similar to canon’s new high end r5 and r6, these new video modes are great, but limited. The flip out screen is very handy and a welcome feature. There are times when I prefer the screen on the Fuji xh1, but a fully articulating screen is still my preference. No major complaints here. Overall, the new features of the xt4 are awesome but not fully there yet. It is undoubtedly a better camera than their past models, yet for its asking price and many ongoing struggles, I feel it’s either better to hold on to your old Fuji cameras, or to switch to another brand altogether.

This is my second xt4 body and the pair are used to cover events and concerts. The auto focus works well and the files are beautiful. People respond to color and feel or look, and the xt4 has a nice look. Battery life is good and the layout and placement makes it easy to work and live with. I’ve shot Sony, Nikon, Leica, Panasonic, Pentax and I’ll add to my Fuji bag as new products come out because the value and size inspire me .

i love my XT4 so much and i love how they took care the delivery. Thank you!

TLDR: Nearly perfect for me, mainly use it for video and it outperformed my expectations. It even got me more into photography and have been thoroughly enjoying the film simulations (Eterna/Eterna BB or Classic Neg are my favourites). If Fuji can bump the autofocus performance to Sony EYE-AF levels with updates (They have so far improved it since launch) I think this is will best APS-C mirrorless in all categories period. Nearly perfect for me, just wish it could do 4k@90p or maybe allow for 6k@24p as it does down-sample to 6k to 4k. I used to own a Canon t5i, then an Olympus OMD E-M10 Mk3, then a Panasonic G85 and they were all decent cameras in their own way, they each had their issues for a VIDEO CENTRIC buyer. Canon t5i: Older DSLR only 1080@30p Olympus E-M10 Mk3: GREAT stabilization 4k@30p No microphone input The 4k video was behind a menu you had to navigate EVERYTIME you wanted to shoot 4k video. Super annoying. Panasonic G85: Decent stabilization 4k@30p (slight crop in 4k, so more than the m4/3 2x) Weather sealed with microphone jack So where does the Fujifilm XT4 sit? Decent stabilization (Bigger sensor so harder to do) 4k@60p 10-BIT 4:2:0 (4:2:2 externally)! DCI 4k as well (slight crop to 4k@60, which doesn't bother me) also 1080@240p! The 4k is actually 6k down-sampled to 4k so you get insanely high quality 4k out of such a small body VERY MINIMAL rolling shutter WAY better than any Sony mirrorless by miles Weather sealed dual SD card slot (which you can assign one for still and one for video, or for redundancy AWESOME!) Much better ergonomics compared to Sony a6xxx series Excellent battery life Very in depth menus (a little daunting but A LOT OF CONTROL when mastered) What would make this the perfect camera for me? More third party lens options smoother auto focus, more robust like Sony EYE-AF. It has Eye AF but isn't as good 4k@90p (This is a BIG ask but I would take it even with a crop and maybe only UHD not DCI)

Product came properly packed and none of the product was damaged

I love Fujifilm cameras and they just keep getting better!. Unfortunately, the prices keep rising and I must be mad spending this kind of money on a camera! When the XT4 came out, I just had to have it, especially because it is equipped with IBIS. I'm a huge fan of IBIS and it makes a big difference when shooting static objects in low light. You can shoot at much lower shutter speeds which means lower ISO and less noise. The camera is packed with great features and is extremely well made. I've always loved Fuji's retro looks and this one is right up there in the looks department. Absolutely gorgeous camera! Photo quality is as good as it gets in an APS-C sensor camera. There is very little difference (it at all) compared to Full Frame cameras. I also shoot with a Sony A7iii and the photo quality is virtually indistinguishable. In fact, I prefer the colours from the XT4. The Fuji is also easier to control and more fun to shoot with!

I had and x-t20 and upgraded, camera is just great, bigger body is not a problem as the grip is heftier. With the IBIS I can take stills down to half a second in low light.
