Who Has The Best Color Science: Canon, Nikon, Sony or Fujifilm?

Color Science

Tony & Chelsea Northrup gave 1,500 photographers a blind poll and had them pick the image with the best color in several different scenes, including portraits in different lighting and outdoor photos. Which camera do you think got the most votes when it comes to color science?

The Fujifilm X-T3 Is The Best Stills/Video Camera On The Market, says DPReview

Here at Canon Watch we like Fujifilm cameras a lot, and the Fujifilm X-T3 seems to be exactly what we were expecting. A great camera.

Photographic authority DPReview reviewed the Fujifilm X-T3, and they seem to be very fond of it.

From the conclusion:

The Fujifilm X-T3 is arguably the best stills/video camera on the market right now. More expensive full frame cameras will offer better still image quality and cameras with in-body image stabilization will be easier to shoot video with, but nothing offers this balance of image quality and movie capability in a single package.

Even better, the X-T3 does both things in a way that makes them enjoyable. The X-T series has already established a fan-base of photographers with its traditional, dedicated-dial interface but, while this can also be used for video, we’d recommend using the (still fiddly) Movie Silent Control mode if you’re switching back and forth, since it allows separate exposure settings for each style of shooting.

With the X-T3, you get excellent JPEGs with some of the industry’s most attractive color options, access to an extensive selection of dedicated lenses, only now with improved autofocus and class-leading video. Crucially, none of the video features get in the way of its excellence as a stills camera. Read the review here…

Fujifilm really did a lot if not everything right with their mirrorless cameras, starting with the lens ecosystem. While we prefer Canon’s color science we agree that Fujifilm’s color science is very good.

The Fujifilm X-T3 is just a really great mirrorless camera, and before wasting your money on excessively expensive full frame mirrorless systems we’d recommend you have a look to see if the Fujifilm X-T3 fulfils your needs. Most likely it does.
