Fujifilm X-S20 Mirrorless Camera Body
$1,299.00
- X-S20 offers the perfect blend of power and portability to turn thoughts and ideas into reality. Weighing just 491g (1.08 lb), with a deep handgrip that ensures a confident, comfortable hold with even the most sizable lens attached. X-S20 delivers stunning 26.1 megapixel images straight out of camera using Fujifilm’s acclaimed color science, at up to 20fps in electronic shutter mode. Its 180° Vari-Angle LCD touchscreen makes selfie-style shots or wild angles a snap and intuitive layout enables creatives of any level to create as soon as their hands touch the camera.
- X-S20 combines powerful sensor and processor technologies to deliver a blistering performance for stills and video—allowing you to capture the moment any way you need. For the first time in an X-S series model, the X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor is paired with the X-Processor 5 imaging engine, resulting in high-speed image and video processing alongside improved autofocus speed and accuracy. A new AF algorithm offers the same subject detection functionality as the range-topping X-H2S so you can move as fast as the world around you. X-S20 also features Auto Subject Detection AF, perfect for hassle-free creativity.
- Thoughtful ergonomics and cutting-edge technology make camera shake and blurry imagery a distant memory with X-S20. The camera’s large handgrip makes for a secure hold. At the same time, five-axis in-body image stabilization (IBIS) has been improved, offering up to seven stops of compensation, ensuring that handheld videography and low-light image-making are nothing to fear. The X-S20 represents a one-stop gain over the previous IBIS system found in the X-S10.
- As well as being a competent stills machine, X-S20 excels at video creation – whether vlogging, live streaming, or making full-length features. The new Vlog mode puts professional-quality footage in easy reach, enabling users to focus on products while unboxing or defocus cluttered backgrounds with a tap. A 3.5mm jack makes it effortless to connect accessories, including the optional TG-BT1 grip can be added for hands-free wireless operation. Stream 4K/60P footage directly from USB-C, or internally record up to 6.2K/30p video in 4:2:2 10-bit color when story calls for it.
- X-S20’s upgraded battery significantly enhances longevity, letting creatives create content on the go with less concern about battery life. Its NP-W235 Li-ion battery delivers an impressive 750 frames in Normal mode – more than twice the number possible with the previous model. Or, switch X-S20 into economy mode, and make up to 800 frames on a single charge.

Camera is great, very well built, great deep grip, discrete, great picture and video. Fujifilm film recipes are so fun to play with unlimited artistic possibilities you can have your pictures and video look the way you want them on the spot. Your friends with Canon’s and Sony’s will be jealous.
Definitely recommend. See pictures for reference.

I am new to the Fujifilm system and I absolutely love this camera. After doing research for over a month I chose to purchase this camera because it had great reviews for both photo and video capabilities. It is also fairly user friendly for someone who is new to photography or new to the Fujifilm system. It is easily customizable, but you can also put it in auto by turning one dial. When capturing a quick photo of my daughter it can be nice to just flip it to auto quickly.
I also liked that the screen could rotate to being forward facing to accommodate the potential for vlogging. That feature isn’t found on all Fujifilm cameras and it’s proven to be useful for myself who is an amateur photographer/videographer.
Attached are some raw images taken with the camera.

I wanted to absolutely love this camera, but it has a few detractors that made me return it in a day of testing. I bought it for filming outdoors in a farm/garden documenting capacity, but it just didn’t cut it.
PROS:
-Image quality! This thing puts out beautiful photos and videos, especially with the built in film simulations which I loved. Plenty of options for video size, codec, etc. No slouch in this department
-Form factor–nice and somewhat compact, although with a lens it is still larger than any M43 camera (obviously) and not much smaller than a full frame with a smaller lens. Maybe too small for some, but I have large hands and found it comfortable
-Autofocus: Improved from their previous XS10 (From what I watched in reviews) and it did work quite well. Maybe not the best, but certainly very workable.
-Auto & Vlog mode: if you don’t want to fiddle with settings, this thing does great adapting to whatever lighting & lens situation you have going on. It uses AI to detect the scene and adjust exposure accordingly. This was nice for just mindless operation like you might do in any run of the mill vlog or talking head situation.
CONS:
-Overheating! This thing gets hot and fast. Filming at 80F for 8mins in FHD caused it to shut down due to overheating in standard heat management mode. If you up the mode–which to me feels like a gamble, you can get 50mins plus, but the camera gets wicked hot. They sell a fan attachment for $200, but it makes it so the screen has to be flipped out and now you went from a $1300 camera body to $1500 and still have no weather sealing or other improvements… For me it was a deal breaker, especially considering my use case.
-Stabilization: while I heard it was better than anything else Fuji has done yet, it was still way too jerky for my liking, even with all of the stabilization options enabled. It made walk and talk footage feel nauseating for me. If you’ll be doing tripod or gimble work, it won’t matter. But since this thing is sold with a dedicated Vlog setting, I thought it was a huge oversight to have such jerky stabe.
-No weather sealing. This is something is really annoying at this price point. My Lumix G85 even has it.
Overall, a really solid camera, but with the lack of built in cooling fan and the jerky stabe, it just wasn’t going to work for my long-term usage scenario. I opted to spend another $300 and get a Lumix S5II which is the best stabe in the business and has excellent video features as well as AF. I do miss the ease of getting a beautiful film look, but I guess I’ll have to wait until Fuji does something about their stabe and cooling. And the S5II has a real time LUT feature that does a lot of what Fuji film simulation can do.

As someone that has been wanting to get into photography for a while and is a total beginner, I debated back and forth on if I wanted to go with a Sony APS-C camera or a Fuji. I decided on the X-S20 and have been extremely happy! I really appreciate the film simulations and all photos posted were straight out of camera with zero editing. The camera is by no means perfect- the film selection dial and front command dial both feel pretty sloppy, autofocus can sometimes miss, and both the EVF and LCD screens do leave something to be desired. But you learn to live with those things and wind up not paying attention once you learn how to work around them.
Overall, great camera for both photos and videos. My biggest request to Fuji is to give it more custom setting slots!!!

I’ve been shooting on this camera none stop since I got it and I love the image/functionality of it. My background: I’m a commercial video director with 7+ years of experience. I’ve already used this as a photo camera on a professional shoot.
Pros:
Cheap
6.2K 10 bit video is amazing
Film simulations and color reproduction are top notch
Great lens options
Super tiny but still easy to hold
Fun pop up flash
IBIS is great
Cons:
Buttons are small and there is limited customization
The view finder and rear LCD could be better
Overall it’s a great camera for pros and beginners alike while being cheaper than the competitors.

The media could not be loaded.
Between 20 to 40 minutes of recording, the LCD screen would either flicker with a horizontal line while browsing the menus or during capturing photos or videos. Other times it would flash random colors as another reviewer reviewed.
Gravely disappointed and sent back for a full refund.

It’s a camera that maintain fuji traditional looking, the grip that use to put battery and memory card is awesome as I can really hold it with one hand, as long as you are not using heavy long lens. It came with strip, battery of course, and various charger head (you don’t need to buy a converter for it if travel to other countries. What you need to buy for it, is memory card, cleaning kit, and extra battery if you want. The other thing is, as I got it when released, it’s still not available for register…..btw, it came with lots of packaging, but actually it surprisingly light weight and small, and the camera came with those triangle rings on it already, no need to buy more.

I had always been a Canon guy, but research led me to consider Fujifilm. The X-S20 is an outstanding camera. It’s got a great feel in the hand, made all the better by the front grip that provides a sense of stability and security on the go. The built in film simulations—something I was skeptical about—are superb. So much better than the filters and effects that come with most digital cameras, Fufifilm’s film sims are designed to mimic their classic film stocks. Finally, the overall look and feel is reminiscent of the old film SLRs I used to shoot with, but with a modern twist. I’m really pleased with this little camera.

Got my hands on the Fujifilm X-20, and it’s exactly the compact little camera I was looking for, especially for travel. The size is just perfect, making it easy to carry around, and the image quality is top-notch. What’s cool is the film simulation feature—it adds a fun touch to the photos. Nostalgic neg is my new favorite in addtion to the classic neg. Excited to capture some awesome moments with this one!
