Default Fuji X-T2 rips up Sonoma Raceway

Hi Gang,
Been a while. Just wanted to put a thread that I shot my last pro motorsports event of the year with my X-T2 at the Indy Car Race at Sonoma Raceway in September. I received the camera only 5 days before the actual race weekend.

This was the first time I was able to shoot an entire race weekend, most notably actual race action, with a mirrorless camera and achieve quality that in IMHO was every bit as good and often better than with my pro Canon DSLR.

I was very impressed with the X-T2's performance in a tough, real-world environment. Most of these were taken using a rental Fuji 100-400 lens.


Sebastian Bordáis


Max Chilton leading the pack


Juan Pablo Montoya


How about a nice panning shot at 1/250th of a second? Spencer Pigot, Turn 10


Some shots of cars going through Turn 10 at VERY high speed:


Tony Kanaan


Big Bentley


Ryan Hunter-Reay on a very hot qualifying lap....


Real-Time Acura Racing TLX


Into the sunlight during the race....Scott Dixon
