Prior to acquiring an X-T3 a couple of years ago, I never owned a digital Fuji camera. Well, except for maybe one of those little point and shoot "XPS" cameras. Now I have owned and shot with a number of serious film Fujis such as the GA645, GW645, GW690, GSW690 and GW670. I want to add that I still have and use those "film Fujis" because they are great cameras. After I picked up the X-T3 I was sold. I loved it for not only the image quality but for the usage experience. Before I knew it, I had acquired a slew of X-Mount lenses. Not much longer after that I began using it for paid portrait work. About a year ago (Winter of 2023?) I found a deal on a X-H1 with grip and well, now I have 2 of them, the 16-55 and the 50-140 that I have used professionally.... I'd have to say that up until a couple of years ago I was primarily a Nikon shooter: FG20, FE, FM, FM3a, D200, D300, D3s, D800, D810, Z6, Z7 - etc... The X-H1 is a mini D3s or maybe a D4 or D5 with a 24MP DX sensor in it along with some other cool tricks. The damned thing feels so good in the hand, yet is built like a tank. It's fast, quiet and does okay at higher ISO's. Using it becomes 2nd nature and it produces wonderful images. The only "issue" is that sometimes the focus isn't as perfect as I'd like. The majority of my paid shoots are still done with the Nikons however, when I am out on the street or am carrying a camera for fun I'd say that there is a 95% chance that I grab the X-H1. Great video BTW!

Thanks, Craig I bought the XT 2 with reservations due to its compact size. With the battery grip, it becomes in my book a camera to hold. I still hankered after the XH1 so with heart ruling the head I bought one. The five reasons you like it for I am with you on them, build quality, the shutter button to name my two favourites. You talk of the Sony overshadowing this also the XT3, VHS overshadowed Betamax for those who know what they are. The XH1 has been like Betamax beaten by marketing and the newer models. Those that own the XH1 know what a gem of a camera it is.

I find myself reaching for the XH-1 more often than my XT-30 and especially my X100 S (which got me into the Fuji system). I find the ergonomics easier, especially after years of SLR/DSLR. My only two significant complaints is that I paid $2300 for camera and grip only to see it go to $999. The other frustration is that the XT-3 came out only months later and they did not put any of that technology in the XH-1. Overnight the duocore processor became yesterday’s news when the quad core processor came out. As a result they stopped writing software updates after v.2. XT-3 is now on v.4. That said I still love it.

Only problem is that on my recently acquired 16 1.4, the older focus system on the H1 could not focus the older lens fast enough for street and events. I was forced to by a third body - X-T3. The X-T3 is a much underrated camera and I really like it a lot too. Now I have the best of both worlds - two great cameras with IBIS, and the newer T3 with fantastic autofocus. I was hankering over the X-H2, but I'm really satisfied with my gear now and really don't think I need one.

Currently I have Fuji, with 13 Fuji lenses (the more expensive and better) and yet I still had to buy a sony body with 2 lenses to be able to take pictures of moving dogs. My sony has no trouble at all with the AF of dogs coming quickly to me, while fuji gives me 90% misses. Fuji must urgently address their AF and at least bring it up to the level of competition.

Great question. To be honest I can't answer that question from experience. I haven't used any of the Sony mirrorless cameras. From what I can tell though the A7rII seems like a really cool camera. If you need amazing Auto Focus then Sony usually has the advantage here. But one of the reasons I'm using Fujifilm at the moment is the lens system. I love the choices of lenses Fujifilm offers. The prices are solid and image quality is great. Things change rapidly though and Sony has been announcing some great compact prime lenses that aperture rings similar to Fujifilm. I would research the lenses that you think you might want to use from each brand and compare. Just keep in mind the Sony is "full frame" and the Fujifilm X-Series are crop sensor cameras. It doesn't make a huge difference in quality but the focal lengths will appear different on each. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@CraigBergonzoni3 жыл бұрын
Do you have another camera you use more often? I have an X-T1 and I tend to take that out more often but that's mainly because my X-H1 is my main video camera and I tend to protect it a bit. If something happens to my X-T1 when I'm out shooting street photography it's not a huge loss. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@@CraigBergonzoni yeah, I currently have more cameras than I could ever possibly need. X-H1, X-Pro1, Xt-10, X100V... I have a problem. I mostly use the X100 for the small carry everywhere size.

Have this camera and love it but where are you getting this XH2 info? It looks like to me that they have just changed direction and are concentrating on the XT series. The XT4 is basically what people wanted in the XH2 except for the top info screen (which I am a big fan of)

According to some statements made from Fujifilm the X-H line will continue and according to Fujirumors.com 2021 is the expected time of release (no one knows anymore details other than that at this point) I think they'll find a way to continue to differentiate the X-H & X-T lines of cameras. I have a feeling we've seen the last of the X-Trans 4 cameras so maybe the X-H2 will help usher in the X-Trans 5 cameras. Hopefully we find out soon! Thank you for watching and commenting! I appreciate it.

@@CraigBergonzoni That's exciting news! I really love the size of the XH1 I hope they release the XH2 soon so I can buy it in a couple of years, hehe. I guess one of the biggest improvements will be battery life (if they have been paying attention). Thanks for the info:)

Well Fujifilm is making look like a liar. lol According to Fujirumors.com, in a story this morning, we're looking at a 2022 release date for the X-H2. That's a bit of a bummer on the timeline but at least they're still going to make it.

Love my xh1, I have the xt3 which may have faster AF but I find the AF on my xh1 especially with the 16-55 2.8 is pretty damn good too. And alough my xt3 has better video specs I more often than not use my xh1 to shoot video, IBIS and the better ergonomics of the xh1 alough me to get far steadier video than I can on my xt3, and when it comes to images I see no difference between the xh1 and xt3 to be honest.

Takes a while for people to realize this. So many "must have" up to the minute specs are seldom used, noticed or worth the sacrifice of other features (and $$) which you've come to need the most. It is crazy that hobbyists think they need the latest and greatest in every department. Calm down, you aren't producing for Netflix, enjoy what you have and remember why you bought it in the first place. Don't get greedy-needy or you'll never create anything.

i've heard some negative feedback on this because its shutter button is too light so it's hard for the user to know when the camera is focusing or has taken a picture... Im new to this hobby and want to focus on photography, im dabating between choosing the xh1 and xt3, maybe a bit toward the XH1 bc it's cheaper, ill have more money to buy lens but that feedback makes me quite concerned, can you give me any advice, thanks !

I just got mine for $600 body. Also, $700 for Fuji 16-55 2.8 lens. Q: what WB u recommend so that film simulations come out good ?
@CraigBergonzoni Жыл бұрын
That's a great deal. Congrats on that! In terms of WB for film sims; it depends on what you're going for. Sometimes having a unique specific WB setting helps give some film simulation recipes their look. But if you want versatility between different types of lighting then go with AUTO WB. But if you want to mimic what film stocks used to be then go with 5500K for daylight and 3200k for indoor. Although I've found that 5700-6300k sometimes gives me more of that old school daylight film look. Play around and see what you like.

When you speak of a quiet shutter, I wonder if this has electronic shutter
@CraigBergonzoni3 жыл бұрын
Good question! It does have an electronic shutter option, which is completely silent. But I was talking specifically about the mechanical shutter. The mechanical shutter on this camera is extremely quiet. It's very nice to use. In situations where you need complete silence then the electronic shutter is the way to go. Thanks for watching and for your comment!! Much appreciated.
