The XT3 was quite a way ahead of the XT2, certainly with the current firmware.Also the eye AF is much improved and tracks really well on moving subjects.
XT-2 user here, wondering about whether to splash out on the XT4, save money and buy a XH-1 or sell all of my Fuji kit and go Canon mirrorless, (Canon is my primary system, I have Fuji for mountaineering/cycle-touring/discrete-in-the-street etc, mainly because of size).
How are people finding the articulated screen? I love the flippy screen on the XT-2 and often use it as a waist-level finder as well as on a tripod, but I only shoot stills, video capabilities are irrelevant to me.
I'll be watching this thread with interest.

It would be interesting to get some real world comparisons between the 3 & 4 for AF.
Cagey75 & Twist, thanks for your input.
Yep, it has occurred to me that the H-1 body wise is comparable to the Canon EOS-R, and of course I am waiting impatiently to see how ridiculously priced the coming R5 is going to be. The lenses do make a difference though, I'm mostly using Fuji f2 primes and EF100L Macro on a Fringer to doubt up as a macro and 150mm telephoto. Most of my Canon glass is big heavy L kit which is heavier than I'd like and far too big. The RF 24-105 might be the answer to my prayers for a travel setup.
However, the XT-2 still takes the edge off the pain of indecision, for now anyway!
I would rule out the H1 on weight / size grounds for what you use a camera for, the image quality is also pretty much the same as the T2.XT-2 user here, wondering about whether to splash out on the XT4, save money and buy a XH-1 or sell all of my Fuji kit and go Canon mirrorless, (Canon is my primary system, I have Fuji for mountaineering/cycle-touring/discrete-in-the-street etc, mainly because of size).

Indictating the 4's AF sticks to the subject better.One of few comparisons so far although not real world use.
Another thing to think of is what are the files like soc. I prefer the Fuji jpegs and the whole light weight aspect of the xt-20 over my 5D3, plus if I lose or damage my Fuji I won't be heartbroken. I have L series lenses too and combined with a FF body just felt I needed something lighter occasionally.XT-2 user here, wondering about whether to splash out on the XT4, save money and buy a XH-1 or sell all of my Fuji kit and go Canon mirrorless, (Canon is my primary system, I have Fuji for mountaineering/cycle-touring/discrete-in-the-street etc, mainly because of size).

In terms of upgrading the Fuji to another Fuji then why change? If you are using stabilised lenses with the X-T2 then the IBIS in the X-T4 or the X-H1 isn't such a huge benefit.
Just to chirp in I got an X-T4 just over a week ago and am finding it an absolute joy to use.
I upgraded from an X-T2, which i still have and intend to keep as a backup, but the X-T4 is way ahead in AF performance both in speed of acquisition and tracking capabilities. Alos the IBIS is fantastic. I shot an image using the 90mm f2 and got a sharp image using a SS of 1/10th
Also the eye AF is much improved and tracks really well on moving subjects.
Would you need IBIS with the 50-140 or 100-400 ? They are already stabilised and the 100-400 detects panning I believe. XT-3 should be more than adequate with those lenses I would have thought.I just wondered if anyone who owns the XT4 has any opinions of how it is performing with wildlife photography, emphasis on birds mainly? I am considering getting one for this purpose alongside my other lesser photographic interests.

Fair point but I like the new design of the XT4 articulted screen, improved AF and larger battery but I appreciate the XT3 is a great camera.Would you need IBIS with the 50-140 or 100-400 ?

I would go for the silver personally, they just look so good!When I get the X-T4 I just have to think what one, Silver or Black

In Wai Lam's initial review he says that the X-T4's AF is more consistent in low light than the X-T3.
What are your views on that?
ah right. Ah wellI've never used an X-T3 to can't compare. Nor have I used the X-T4 in low light yet.
Nor I, sorry. I'll have a play when the situation is right and post.I've never used an X-T3 to can't compare. Nor have I used the X-T4 in low light yet.
That's a still image Tim?Nor I, sorry. I'll have a play when the situation is right and post.
Hi Jak. Yeah. I do a lot of indoor event people photos (using flash to light them).That's a still image Tim?
Hi Tim, not really sure if this what you are after?Hi Jak. Yeah. I do a lot of indoor event people photos (using flash to light them).
The X-T3 is far better than the X-T2, but it would be interesting to know if the 4 is another jump forward.
99% of the time, single shot and AF-S.
