Fujifilm X-T5 Subject Detection Animal
Whilst sitting waiting for for a call centre to answer my call, I decided to photograph the activity on the bird feeders outside of my studio window. The lighting was less than ideal so I rigged a Rotolight NEO 3 PRO hybrid LED flash to act as a fill light.
The light was attached to the window with an Avenger F1000 pump cup with swivel 16mm baby pin and Manfrotto 196AB-2 articulated arm. The colour temperature was set to 4300K as that's in the region where the luminaire is at maximum output.
As the major activity on the feeder was squirrels, I decided to test the Animal Subject Detection on my Fujifilm X-T5 with 50 - 140mm ƒ/2.8 zoom lens. It was flawless, the face detection picked up the eye closest to the lens with every frame. I did crank the ISO to 640 as there are few grain issues with the Fujifilm X-Trans CMOS sensor in this camera. The IBIS In Body Image Stabilisation and OIS Optical Image Stabilisation in the lens provided sharp frames with resorting to any addition support. When I shot similar images with my Canon 5D4 and 200mm ƒ/2.8 prime I needed additional support as there was not IBIS or OIS.
That's it for today. Keep an eye on Amateur Photographer magazine soon for my article talking about my expereince with the Fujifilm X-T5 so far.
