Fujifilm X-T4

18 - 55 mm, 26.10 Mpx, APS-C / DX

Product details

The new flagship model offers a complete professional equipment in the areas of photo and video. Thanks to new features such as an advanced shutter and an advanced autofocus algorithm, expressive shots
are possible even under the most difficult conditions.

The X-T4 is the first camera in the X-T series to be equipped with an integrated image stabilizer. This technology supports the user, for example, when taking photos with low light or when "pulling along" in sports photography. In addition, the image stabilizer enables smooth panning and prevents camera shake during video recording.

The X-T4 features a high-resolution 26.1 megapixel X-Trans CMOS 41 sensor with backside exposure that works perfectly with the powerful X-Processor 4. The technological and creative potential of the camera is demonstrated by the greatly enhanced video mode with many professional features.

The X-T4 has an ultra-fast focal plane shutter controlled by a newly designed coreless DC motor with particularly high efficiency. It is designed for 300,000 releases and operates about 30 percent quieter than the shutter of the predecessor model X-T3. The X-T4 achieves an extremely fast continuous shooting speed of up to 15 frames per second. In live view mode, 8 frames per second with mechanical shutter and up to 30 frames per second with electronic shutter are possible without viewfinder blackout. The shutter release time is also very short at just 0.035 seconds.

The autofocus of the X-T4 is even faster than on the previous model. A new AF algorithm and improved phase detection ensure an AF speed of just 0.02 seconds. Very dynamic subjects are captured with twice the precision and automatically tracked within the image by the camera. For fast continuous shooting, the focus is very reliably adjusted. This also benefits the user in portrait and group shots.

The X-T4 is the first model in the X-T series with integrated five-axis image stabilization (IBIS). It provides a shutter speed advantage of up to 6.5 steps when used with the appropriate XF/XC lenses2. Thanks to a new suspension with further developed components and improved gyro sensors, the IBIS now operates eight times more precisely than in the X-H1, the first camera in the X series with integrated image stabilization.

The X-T4 offers the new film simulation "ETERNA Bleach Bypass", which is based on a visual effect of analog color film processing. The film material is not bleached, so that the colour and black-and-white image overlap. The result is a high-contrast, grainy image with reduced saturation and low dynamic range.

With the X-T4, the exposure result can be further refined. For example, the highlight and shadow detail can now be adjusted in 0.5 EV increments in the range -2 to +4 EV (instead of 1.0 EV). The white balance offers two new automatic options: "White Priority" for a maximum bright white point and "Ambient Priority" for a warmer colour mood. It is also possible to shoot in RAW mode with two levels of compression.

If you like retro design and operation, the Z fc is a very good camera that achieves similar results to Fuji's X-E4 and X-T30. It is the first Nikon Z camera to be equipped with a monitor that folds out to the side. However, the older Nikon Z 50 performs minimally better in our test and costs 150 euros less according to street prices - so it gets the price tip...

If you prefer APS-C cameras, Fuji is the right choice. With the X-T4 (26 MP, approx. 1700 euros), the Japanese offer one of the best models with this sensor size. Much cheaper (just under 1000 euros) and equipped with the same image sensor is the X-S10, which brings along many functions known from the X-T4 and sets its own accents with its large grip and the swivel monitor...

  • PositiveThe renewals of the X-T series have succeeded thanks to the stabiliser, higher battery power and more. The test results show that not only the handling wins, but also the image quality reaches a very high level.
  • NegativeIt's just a small thing that also affects filmmakers: The lack of an audio output, which is simulated by means of the included USB-C cable, is a step backwards. Because the additional cable is often forgotten.

The camera's performance in terms of image quality is outstanding. In addition, criticisms of Fujifilm X cameras in terms of handling are history with the new X-T4. The most important innovation is the integrated image stabiliser, which competes with the top systems of other mirrorless system models right off the bat...

    Very good weatherproof system camera. For the highest demands. With very good electronic viewfinder, large image converter and network function. Top score in the eye test. Very good monitor to fold (by 225 degrees) and swivel (by 180 degrees), fast camera, basic handles work very easily, many extras and functions. Disadvantage: very expensive.

    The Fujifilm X-T4 wins the duel against the Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark III by a narrow margin thanks to better image quality. If speed and robustness are priorities, the OM-D E-M1 Mark III comes out on top: it scores with a faster autofocus, a higher continuous shooting speed and a particularly large range of weather-protected professional lenses.
