I think the mentioned that IBIS was going to be exclusive to the XH line. The XT is supposed to become less expensive though than it was in the past.Maybe I praised Fuji for their XP n XT systems prematurely.
I might have been over zealous.
It is rumored ( ? ) that the XT-3 does not have Ibis!
If this is true, then like I mentioned...a Japanese camera monopoly shortchanging gullible ‘us ‘ any way they can.
Sad.
IBIS is only X-H1 and later models ....Maybe I praised Fuji for their XP n XT systems prematurely.

Also it looks like they may be using an updated and modified A6500 OSPDAF sensor for the XT3 based on the 425 AF points spread across pretty much the whole sensor. If so that will solve a lot of issues I had with the current sensor... now if we could get them to put out honest ISO data for all of their cameras.That makes sense.
Sweet :thumbs:
No....(I would surely recommend a simple Z7/6 instead, Rayyan :angelA XT-3 is surely necessary, no?
When I say sweet, I mean it. However, I don't like what Fuji does with the files at high ISO. I didn't when I was a Fuji user with the S3 and S5, and I don't now. It's unfortunate, for this new camera is a bargain. I would rather have a Df though. Or a Z6Interesting times indeed.
For me the choices seem so unfair!
I skipped the XT-2.
If doing mostly street, I have the XP2.
Heavy lenses..the XH-1.
I have all the lenses I need...from the 14-90mm.
XT-3 price around $1500...Surely there will be rebates come Dec.
Hmmm, interesting times indeed.
p.s in a moment of madness, I got me a Gitzo traveler and an Arca-Swiss P0 ball head. Now to make use of it!
A XT-3 is surely necessary, no?
Waiting seems to be the best option for most people looking to get into SOME Mirrorless system.Unfortunately I could not be less interested anymore. How times change, this was totally different some few months ago, but now with 3 FF mirrorless vendors on the plane and me shooting currently m43 I will definitely not go APSC anymore. A complement to m43 has to be FF for me.
Unfortunate because Fuji seems slowly to get on the right track with the X-T3 and especially the X-H1, can only imagine that the soon to be announced X-H2 will be an almost perfect camera
Anyway for now I would prefer either a Z6 or Z7 as my FF mirrorless camera (from all available FF mirrorless offerings available today) but will wait some time to get the S lens lineup more complete and better suited for my needs.
Actually I have won some time :thumbs:
"The X-T3 is a very serious mirrorless camera. And with ins conception I see no reason why I would buy a full frame mirrorless camera."Looks like a good offering at a slightly more affordable price. Now if only they were able to put this new technology into the XH1 body from the get go...

Rayyan, yes I would like to do the same, but because of economic reasons I would like to buy a Nikon Z in my company before I go to pension, and the incomes drops, therefore I'm willing to gamble at some compromises.Methinks that now is the time to exercise patience, lock up my cc, and just watch n read the story unfold.
Like I said before, technology improvements can only be incremental. And no one camera will satisfy everyone or be the end all holy grail most wish for.
So Thorkil..let the games begin. I shall cheer everyone on!
Best.
Fuji has done this all the time at least since the X-T1 - have some photographers most of them Fuji ambassadors shoot with their cameras before launch and write a review or make a short youtube video. Always of course these reviews are kind of impressive and making readers/viewers want to buy their cameras. And they appear just in masses shortly after the launch, so once your attention is caught you can easily follow up and get even more hooked up. Nothing bad about that strategy at all - as long as you are aware of what's happening.Fuji is doing something that is probably very smart and that I fall for totally:
They let a great photographer like Jonas Rask try the camera out over time, publishing some really good photos on his website. I couldn't care less if he's biased or that he could probably have taken most of those photos with more or less any advanced camera. He still makes me want to buy the Fuji. I've had his "review" up in a tab of my browser since the camera was launched.

Yes, Jonas Rask are doing some extraordinary good pictures, but that he has always done, and I guess that he could do that with any camera... :toocool: (even a Df:grin: or a Z7/6:shockedFuji is doing something that is probably very smart and that I fall for totally:
