When it comes to picking the best camera for your need as a graphic designer, videographer, or photographer is much more complex then I initially thought when first getting into the graphic design industry.

The Fujifilm X-T2 is a fantastic camera. I am truly blown away by the image quality, color science, and low light capabiliteis of the XT2. But I must say I found 3 big issues with the fujifilm X-T2 that ruined the this camera for me.

Here are a few things I want to cover in this video:
- Problems with the Fujifilm XT2
- Overheating Issues with the XT2
- XT2 is Shutting Down Automatically
- Issues with the Fujifilm XT2
- Fujifilm XT2 Battery Life

Lets break down these three aspects of this camera that made it nearly un-usable to me.

1. Battery Life

This is a huge thing for me. I often batch record my videos, early Saturday morning and it usually takes me about 1.5 - 2 hours to record 3-5 of my YouTube videos. Each of these videos lasts about 7-10 minutes and takes around 10-17 minutes to record each one. I will easily blow through 2 - 3 batteries in this time frame. To me this is just unacceptable in the technological age we are living.

I mean, Elon Musk is running cars off of batteries like mine! Ok, I know the batteries are a whole lot bigger and probably more advanced, but still! A Car, for around 260 miles per charge! My camera cannot last 30 minutes. Fuji's suggestion, "Here try our battery grip!" I appreciate their suggestion, but I believe a battery grip should give me mind blowing use time. Not increase it to average usability, from below average.

The reason this is such an issue for me is, like I said usability. I need to be able to pump out my videos, edit, and post them with maximum efficiency, and this is killing my efficiency! So strike one for me. Not because it is a BAD camera, but because it does not improve my work flow. TIME IS MONEY!

2. The Overheating Issue

The next thing I want to talk about is the overheating issue. This may not be an issue for you if you are a videographer shooting short clips, in air conditioned buildings, or colder geographical locations (I live in Florida).

The overheating is caused by shooting 4k footage. I have not experienced overheating while shooting photos yet. Around 5 minutes the yellow overheating warning will come on and begin to flash. Then from there the RED overheating warning will come on around 7-10 minutes depending on the conditions of the shoot. This is really bad because it hinders your ability to shoot video. What do I mean by this? Well that leads me into point #3.

2. The Camera Then Shuts off!

This definitely the biggest aspect that ruined the Fujifilm X-T2 for me. It is something that I think could hinder efficiency for anyone looking to short long form video content on YouTube or recording live events, etc... you need a reliable camera that will give you good battery life and will not cut off in the middle of recording.

Is there a solution to these problems?

Well, nothing that Fujifilm is currently providing as a remedy. But allow me to make an incredible camera recommendation, at nearly the same cost with very similar specs and even better usability.

I present to you the Panasonic GH5.

Ok, so all of this doom and gloom, right? Well not entirely. If you want to know what this camera CRUSHES it in, then check out my other video talking about X things I love about the Fujifilm X-T2
