The XT20 offers the same mechanical shutter speed range as its predecessor, from 30 seconds to 1/4000, with a 1/180 flash sync speed; if you want a faster mechanical shutter of 1/8000 and flash sync of 1/250, you’ll need the XT2. I should also mention that by inheriting the older body, the XT20 also inherits an older SD slot that may be compatible with UHS-II SD cards, but won’t exploit their potential speed. I confirmed this in my continuous shooting tests which you can read more about later. This is now another key difference with the XT2 which not only now supports dual SD cards with the convenience of side-access, but one of them will exploit the extra speed of UHS-II cards. Of course you’d expect that for a flagship body, but it’s important to mention Panasonic has also taken the opportunity to upgrade the Lumix G80 / G85 to exploit the speed of UHS-II cards and while it unsurprisingly only has one slot, it’s also conveniently accessed from the side, rather than below.

Above are 100% crops showing, from left to right, no grain, weak grain and strong grain. The original image was shot at 200 ISO with the ACROS simulation. Below is a colour shot of the Brighton Pavilion with the Provia simulation at 200 ISO, followed by three more crops presented at 100% to show the grain effect on a colour image. The fourth and final option on the app is Geotagging which as its name suggests, uses your handset’s GPS to deliver co-ordinates which are embedded on your photos. However Fujifilm goes about this in a different way to rivals. Rather than having your handset store a GPS log which is later synced with the images in the camera, the XT20 actually imports and embeds the co-ordinates as you compose and take the photo, so there’s nothing for you to do afterwards.The Fujifilm X-T20 has three dynamic range settings - 100% (on by default), 200%, and 400% - and an Auto setting if you want to let the camera take control. These settings gradually increase the amount of detail visible in the shadow and highlight areas, with the side-effect of more noise appearing in the image. Note that you can't actually turn this feature off.

It is dwarfed by a full size 35mm SLR like the Nikon FTn Photomic: Like the 18-55mm, this 55-200mm is more than just a simple telephoto kit lens. The aperture is slightly faster than the standard and the optical quality is good when it comes to sharpness. The 84-305mm equivalent field of view gives you versatility for a variety of genres that don’t require an extreme telephoto reach. It features optical stabilisation but is not weather sealed. HD (1280x720)] 59.94p / 50p / 29.97p / 25p / 24p / 23.98P, 18Mbps Continuous recording : up to approx. 30 min.Fully adjustable Auto ISO with three presets (good), except that one cannot shift the AUTO value for minimum shutter speed away from its default.

The XF 50mm is the most recent addition to the XF line-up at the time of publishing this article. It is based on the same criteria as the other f/2 lenses such as the 23mm and 50mm: it is light yet solid with the advantage of weather-sealing, and features a silent and fast AF motor. It is definitely the most affordable option for portraits today.

Despite this, the X-S20 still has an appealingly large handgrip that makes the camera secure to hold even one-handed. FLASH MODE TTL(FLASH AUTO / STANDARD / SLOW SYNC.) / MANUAL / COMMANDER / OFF SYNC. MODE 1ST CURTAIN / 2ND CURTAIN
