Hi there, thanks for this discussion everyone. I've learnt a lot here! 

I thought I found the ultimate solution for Vlogging, interviews, Web meetings, 4K Video and recreational photography, I may have been wrong with the X-S10...?

I already planned to buy a ATEM Blackmagic Live Pro, to steam and use the webcam function linking from the controller's USB. From the discussion it seems like that would be my only option if I was wishing to use the X-S10 as a live camera with its in-built features. 

I'm now very torn between the X-S10, A600 and A6400. 

Any other cameras people would recommend for a similar price and use case, ideally without having to use a video controller? 

I've used a friend's Fujifilm and I would like to join the tribe, but I'm concerned about having to always lug around the ATEM controller and HDMI cable if I want to stream or go live. 

Any thoughts or ideas here would be appreciated, thank you!

xt-3 would work well ! in fujifilm family . outside fujifilm you can get sonya72 with kit lens in the similar price of fujifilm xt30 with the kit lens ,in canon you can get rp which is good for vlogging as i heard in the similar price range . but all those have modern style and only fujifilm has film camera aesthetic and analog type control's etc.. but it's your choice my friend !. so if you are buying into other camera system's.. for you need of vlogging , i hope you join fujifilm family later . i hope this helps. have a nice day ! and.. hope to see you soon in the fujifilm family !

Seems like your question is more about using the camera as a webcam than about vlogging. There's a big discussion about this very subject in this very forum; one person even discusses that switcher. I found that the simplest solution was to bypass the buggy Fujifilm webcam software and just buy around $20 worth of cables:

Sure,

I've done a bit of digging a found that I can use a simple HMDI-USB interface and cable for a neat in-line solution. I think this will be my approach!

    • I found the reddit topic i refere to :  https://www.reddit.com/r/davinciresolve/comments/1pc3f1e/cant_apply_new_fujifilm_gfx_55_lut/ "Update for y'all, It's just like what @ExpBalSat said, it's because of the backslashes in the names break them. I changed the file name and it works now. "   For me it was the solution. Realy annoying if it doesn’t work for you 😕  
    • Here is the solution to using the Eterna 55 file simulation LUTs in Davinci Resolve.   In general, do not use the FLog2C to film simulation LUTs as they are not supported by Davinci Resolve for two reasons: 1) Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut Color Space and 2) Davinci Resolve does not support FLog2C gamma.  Instead, use Flog2 which is supported by Davinci Resolve.  Here is an example.  Let's say that you want to use Classic Chrome simulation.  Do the following: Complete your color grade and use a CST to get to Rec 709. Add a node.  Use a CST to convert from Rec 709 to FLog2.  Output Color space is Rec 2020 and Outout Gamut is FLog2. Add a node.  Apply the FLog2 to Classic Chrome LUT Create a combination node from node in steps 2 and 3. Apply a Key to the combination node and adjust the Key Output Gain to get the amount of the combination node that you want applied. So that you do not have to do this over and over again, generate a LUT for the combination node.  Remember to turn off all other nodes before generating the LUT. Hope this helps others. Don  
    • Thanks for the insights. I think it's really hard to make a decision without having the two side by side! 
    • I don’t have the 23 f2 but I have read several times that it is considered a little soft at close distance, compared to the 23 f1.4 lenses. These will also focus at shorter distance from the subject, esp. the new one. So that might make a difference. The new 23 f1.4 LM WR  has better resolution, esp. in regard to the 40Mpix sensors, which you don’t have on the X-T2. What practical difference that makes for the value of the pictures one makes is disputable and subjective.  f1.4 will gather more light but with a smaller DOF, which may be desirable in some situations but not so in others, depends. If you like to shoot close ups, you will probably use higher f numbers to get a bigger DOF. Same for landscapes. If you are a bokeh fan, yes the f1.4 lens are better.  The older 23 f1.4 lens that you are considering is a very good and respected lens. The f1.4 vs f2 aperture per se is perhaps not so important. The 23 f2 is very small, light and practical and a great lens for travel and landscapes. So, go figure. I am afraid I just sent you further down the road to insanity !
    • First post here but long time fuji shorter. I use the XT2 with the 23mm f2 / 35mm 1.4 / 16-80mm f4 I'm considering the 23mm f1.4 r (Non-WR) About me: - I shoot black and white only. - I like macro details to wide open landscapes and everything in-between. - I shoot mostly for art, intrigue and creativity of the image. My question - is the 23mm f1.4 going to offer me any meaningful difference over the f2 for the above scenarios Thanks and sorry for bringing it up again...
