Everything you need to know for video

X-T3 is still a great camera and if it does everything you need then you can get it at an even better price
X-T4 240p slow motion
Record to both cards at once
F-Log view assist so you don’t have to look at washed-out footage
Movie optimized control lets you use the back screen or buttons
Movie mode lets you optimize your video settings and keep them separate from photo settings
Improved video AF that you can trust
Very fast AF from close to far in video
Decent demo of the different film simulations including Eterna Bleach Bypass
Eterna Bleach Bypass is heavy-handed and very 300 the movie looking for high contrast with flat skin tones
ISO works in 1/3 steps and it is improved in the X-T4 because it is much faster
Digital stabilization isn’t great on any camera except the GoPro but he did testing in the video
240p actually looks very good and is one of the fastest modes avalible
IBIS won’t replace a gimbal but it will give you that handheld TV look
If you use digital stabilization you get more warble with wide lenses or complicated backgrounds
Best to just use IBIS+OIS
Digital stabilization requires about a 1.18 crop
4k60p can go up to 1.29 crop if you are using digital image stabilization which isn’t bad compared to others and you mainly notice it with wide glass
Internal recording under 30p is limit of just under 30min of recording time
4k60p is limited to a 20min clip internally
