    Dominic Feltoe got a reaction from Shield3 in The 4K Fuji X-T2 is here   
    No, you're not the only one! I can't really see what folks are getting so excited about. Very clinical and video-y to my eyes.

    Agreed.. something really weird about the motion. Will have to wait for real life tests to get a proper idea. Right now it's looking way too 'video'.
    Also am I the only one to find Fuji film simulations a bit over rated? Never been a fan of heavy baked in looks.
    It is an interesting concept, at least for still photography but the film simulations have nothing a proper LUT would give you imo.
    No IBIS, External F-log, Rolling shutter issues, limited/expensive native lens ... meh.. It sounds to me like Fuji is just jumping on the filmmaker bandwagon, but do they really have the chops? I guess it's still nice Sony finds itself a competitor..
    Hopefully a real non-sponsored test will give the full breakdown, I certainly won't be the beta tester for yet another compromised new hybrid system.. hyped up solely on the premise of 4K and some "cool" retro picture profiles..

    I respectfuly disagree.  Resolution and sharpness are not the same thing.  As for dynamic range, the codec defines the dynamic resolution (how many steps) but it has nothing to do with the dynamic range.  An image with a 4 stop range and an image with a 15 stop range could both be recorded in the same 8 bit codec.  Having said that, Its great that people are using the NX1 and finding it to their needs.  It just isn't the be all and end all, otherwise people wouldn't still be looking at new cameras.

    I think this camera will go really well with some Canon FDs or Takumars. The videos I've seen look a little too sharp for me, and I think using older glass would really make the image look softer and more film-like. Definitely a cheaper alternative to pricey Fuji lenses.

    This footage looks terrible. Sooo video-y.

    Am I the only one who finds the motion in several of those videos to look really strange? Especially in the Beautiful Riot and Akiyama-go - videos.
    Most of the motion is overtly fluid, like it's shot in 60i or very low shutter speeds. Or forced in post from PAL to NTSC. Very unpleasant look imho.
