The real world pros and cons of the Fujifilm XT20

The X-T2 and X-T20 differences are minimal

 

I have been posting a great deal of videos and blogposts as to my initial impressions of this X-T2 smaller brother. But today I will give you a full assessment of this little wonder called the Fujifilm XT20 camera. I will talk about the pros and cons of this camera but I must warn you that I am partial to this camera for many reasons. First and foremost, it is indeed all that the X-T2 is minus a couple of features and ergonomic differences. What I mean by this is that on an image quality level it is the same camera. Same sensor, image processor and lots and lots of the same namely:

 

  • They both shoot 4K UHD
  • Both have the same burst on standard mode
  • Video recording codecs are essentially identical
  • Batteries yused are the same as well
