I am sympathize with writers. I am absolutely exhausted with video only reviews, opinions, etc.
Give me written word and some short videos for when visuals are needed.

@Andrew Reid ah, Sorry mate should’ve been more clear. Where on the zoom range does it change between f/2.8-f/4
-
I agree with @kye. I'd love to see some stress tests on outdoor filming with a crazy high shutter.

@Andrew Reid Where does the aperture change on the Sigma? I've been considering the Fuji 16-80mm but maybe the Sigma would be worth it for the f/2.8.. I already have the Fringer and Sigma 18-35 so it wouldn't be that crazy.

I am excited to see what you find Andrew. I have always wished there was a good (and fairly quick) way of doing it in either Premiere or FCPX, but the ones I have seen are not great and/or take too long to be worth it when I could just throw an ND on. But it would be great if there was.....

The 16-80mm f4 is even better.
Not much bigger or heavier, but IMO more clarity and a bigger range plus constant aperture whereas the 18-55 is really only f2.8 at the widest and quickly goes f4.
It's currently my workhorse do it all lens alongside the Sigma 18-35 f1.8 and Tamron 45 f1.8.
I was thinking of doing the 16-80mm and Sigma 18-35 as well. Seems like a great standard kit. Happy to hear someone else using it and enjoying it.

The thing is, you have to move the camera slowly in order for this to happen. It seems to me that the camera realizes to late that it's actually moving and compensates for it with the "jump" If I increase the speed of the exact same movement, the sensor doesn't jump.
This is the real bummer. I do slow pans with my GH5 a LOT– it's great with the IBIS, but if the XT4 keeps jumping like that it's gonna be a big problem for me. I rarely do quick moves.
Thanks for all your experimentation. I am hopeful Fuji will help solve this!

I may have missed it, but is it just a waiting game right now before we see some hands on stuff?? Have they given an official date for when hands on / footage can be seen? Or are we just waiting with no date in sight?

Maybe but i would not even mind a simple non variable one.
The Canon G# Powershot higher end P&S cameras have ND filters like my old G10 and while just the on/off settings, it is brilliant.
I have been looking at the G1x cameras with them...a lot to like, a sensor larger than M43 and a lot of controls (like the old G10)...trouble is that Canon seems to have greatly crippled video deliberately in all of these, the G10 has VGA and it is supposed to be quite nice but no real control other than the ND filter (I have not tried it other than mucking around). The G1x has full HD but again, i do not think it has much (if any) real control. The first version G1x is quite cheap second hand.
The Canon G# looks similar to what Fuji has been doing with X100 series. I think problem lies in that these are fixed lens cameras so maybe there is some magic in how the lens is "mounted"?

Really beautiful video on this post:
The paramotoring video is the one I'm talking about. If it's handheld I feel like it looks amazing.
Just heard back from them (Forged in the North), yes everything handheld and they used the 23mm 1.4 and 56mm 1.2.

Loved the early look at the camera. Was a huge fan of the XT3. Ultimately decided to stay with my GH5 because of IBIS and flip screen. Now the XT3 has it. My wife has the XE3 with the 16-55 and 35mm 1.4– being in the same ecosystem would make projects a lot simpler to pack for.
Would love to see the Viltrox primes announced soon though, the Fuji 35mm 1.4 is slow and loud for focus.

This rumor is really losing steam as the XT4 is looking like another XH1 disappointment, without the 6k capabilities the 4k120 seems like a non-starter as well. Meanwhile the EOS R5 is blowing up. Go figure.

But I agree with @Stathman if it's XT-3 guts in an XH1 body (maybe improve the IBIS) that fulfills a lot of people's hopes.

So what are the chances we see this announcement in a couple days here? Is it real?

It really does sound too good to be true. But again, Fuji gave us the XT3 and that camera is a dream (the only reason I didn't buy it after trying was lack of IBIS and flip screen).
When I was using the XT3 I tried out the 23mm f/2 and 16-55 f/2.8 both were super reliable and a joy to use.

Where is the cutting edge of film-making now?

I would second this. Today so much of comedy has heavy influence of these guys. But who is cutting edge today? I don't think I can say.
