XT-4 IBIS performance with different focal lenght lenses


Jeroen Pasman Photography

Recommended Posts

First of all i like to express how happy i am with the XT-4  .  I use to own an XT 20 and i really like this small camera but a few things make me save money and buy the XT-4 .  

I have an interesting question for you XT-4 users and its about the IBIS system.  

I am using Manual lenses only.  the AF and lens communication is turned off in my body.  I use the manual focus on the lens, the manual aperture and manual ISO.  my shutterspeed is in A most of the times but when i need a certain shutter speed than i will choose that as well .. 

All my lenses are PRIME .. i dont own any zoom.  

My list of lenses:  

12mm Samyang  F2.0  //  21mm Kamlan F1.8 // 35mm Samyang F1.4 //  50mm Kamlan F1.1  version II  // 85 mm Samyang F1.8  //  105mm Vivitar F2.5 Macro series 1  // 200mm Vivitar F3 series 1 

Now, there is a lot of info to find about how IBIS is handling Fuji lenses and how many stops you can gain by it.  

My question is this.  with what lens will IBIS be the mose usefull ?  Do i get a real benefit from IBIS using my 12mm lens.. ore will it perform any good at 200MM ?  there are 6 slots in the camera to preset my lenses ..i have 7 ......  so what lens should i not put in the preset list since it will barely benefit from the IBIS ?  

What can you say in general about the IBIS in the XT-4  with manual lenses ? 

Thanks in advance for your answers.

    • Ahoy ye hearties! Hoist ye yon Jolly Roger and Cascade away. NGC 1502 The Jolly Roger Cluster:

      This is the equivalent of 43 minutes, 40 seconds of exposure. NGC 1502 is a neat little cluster located in the Camelopardalis Constellation. This region of space was thought to be fairly empty by early astronomers, but as you can see, there is a lot there. Kemble's Cascade (a.k.a. Kemble 1) is named for Father Lucian Kemble, a Canadian Franciscan friar who wrote about it to Walter Scott Houston, an author for the Sky And Telescope magazine. Houston named the asterism for Fr. Kemble and the name "stuck". NGC 1501 is the Oyster Nebula. A longer focal length telescope is needed to bring this one into good viewing range, but it is well worth the effort.

    • Looking for input; there are some decent deals and might want to take advantage to expand my lenses for my 100s already own: 110/2 32-64 35-70 100-200 + TC   Shooting mostly family shots, bringing my kit to capture family outings indoors and out. Tracking the 63/43 effective FLs on the two, but has anybody used both? Would the 55 (covered by two zooms right now) be redundant? Would the 80 be too similar in character to my 110 for portraiture?
    • See what I mean? Two instantaneous ads. Worthless.   
    • What's the deal Fuji X Forum? I'm noticing there are seldom replies to any topics - except for advertisements posted as replies. Really lame. Anyone else noticing the only reply they receive to a question is an advert?  🤠 fotomatt in Colorado
