Having shot Fuji for years the IQ, noise and especially AF is not equal, let alone substantially better. With that said Morris is a very good photographer.


If a good photographer gets better with different equipment then the equipment makes the photographer.

The news agencies buy the best equipment and send a staff of employees to the Olympics with the hope that someone will get the shot.

The photographers pictured below did nothing more than focus on one subject and press the shutter button until the end of the action and none of those photographers owned their equipment.

Talent and ambition were totally lacking.




Sorry but anyone who shoots Fuji wouldn't go out on a limb and claim the AF rivals the current Nikon line up. Maybe the older Z6 and Z7 bodies but that's about it.

Also new agencies actually go by what they get the best deal (money wise) on within the pro category - to claim differently is a bit much. Remember when the AP pool went with Sony since they cut them a massive deal.
