Fujifilm XT-1 vs Canon 6D
This is a project to compare quality between photos taken with the following:
-Fujifilm XT-1 w/ XF 56mm f/1.2 R lens (~90mm equivalent)
-Canon 6D w/ EF 70-200mm f/2.8L USM lens (set to 90mm focal length)
The Canon 6D utilizes a 20.2 megapixel full-frame sensor, while the Fujifilm XT-1 uses a 16.3 megapixel APS-C sensor.
Many efforts were made to minimize variables. Photos were taken from the same position in as short a duration of time as possible. Both lenses were used with their respective lens hoods attached. White balance was set to daylight. Both cameras were set to aperture priority mode. Evaluative metering was used on both cameras. To minimize camera shake, a tripod was used, 2-second shutter release was selected, and IS was switched off on the Canon lens.
Frames were taken across different exposures; ISO and aperture were manually set, and the camera set shutter speed (thus, shutter speed might vary across comparison images). Note that in one instance, the Fuji aperture was set for 10 instead of 11.
Since the Fuji lens is capable of shooting f/1.2 (and the Canon is not), one frame was shot at 1.2. Likewise, since the Canon is capable of shooting at f/22 (and the Fuji is not), one frame was shot at f/22.
The setting was chosen to imitate an outdoor portrait scenario in which color, skin tone, and bokeh can be taken into consideration. The tree setting was chosen to offer the opportunity to examine detail in a wider frame.
