Fujifilm X-H2s new v7.0 firmware: Locked on auto-focus!!

New Fujifilm firmware updates that add REALA ACE and fix autofocus for the following Fujifilm cameras: X-T5, X-H2, X-H2s, X-S20, and X100VI. I go over the firmware updates for each camera. Get the firmware updates here: fujifilm-x.com/en-us/support/...
How to install firmware updates: fujifilm-x.com/global/support...
Question: If I didn't get the last few updates, do I need to do that?
Answer: No. Just get the latest firmware update and that will bring your camera up to all the latest features, etc. No need to add the prior ones.

I used X-H2 with latest firmware, the lens were 17-70mm Tamron and 33mm Tokina ATX-M, in both cases aperture was f/4, ISO=1600, shutter speed 1/60, shooting 4K video with me 2-10ft in front of camera, AF-C fine except if I moved too fast toward the camera, there was a small lag in terms of focusing. (AF-C, AF mode is "Multi", tracking sensitivity:+4, AF speed: +3, Face detection: left eye)

[@DuanToOthers]

That's great. Same on my side I just increased the AF Speed to help with the catching up. But all n all I am happy

[@AnzelLmao]

i feel like it should absolutely NAIL a slow dolly tbh. I'm gonna need a way to go back to the og firmware bc tbh its just so odd that its so messed up with these new firmwares!

[@mortenthorpe]

the video looks great - Did you shoot in FLOG? if not, which profile? Eternal? Real Ace?

[@DuanToOthers]

Thanks! I shot in H.265 422 profile and used classic chrome 😄

[@lionheart4424]

Hard to say man, those shots were all but dynamic. Good thag it works just right for you though.

[@simon359]

I’ve heard some channels say that it’s even worse than before, that version 1.03 is better than any of the post firmware versions?

[@DuanToOthers]

Unfortunately I got my XH2s when the autofocus was already a problem. Would have loved to be able to test it side by side

[@autobit]

Yes, i confirm! Is best beter, most perfect. On my H2s miss only one thing: Waveform!! Fuji, please.... 😉

[@DuanToOthers]

Thanks for sharing!

[@arielestulin9706]

you gonna be waiting for a long time

[@Iamquiroga]

what were your AF and Tracking settings?

[@DuanToOthers]

AF mode is set to Multi, custom settings: tracking sens +4 and AF speed +3, also face detection is on but not eye detection

[@jeanlaurent3003]

Hello what lens did you use?

[@DuanToOthers]

I used the Fuji 16-55mm f2.8 💪

[@garends225]

What focus settings did you use? Face or face/eye or wide tracking?

[@DuanToOthers]

Only face detect. I turned off the eye detect

[@garends225]

@@DuanToOthers thanks for the quick reply. May I ask what lens you used?

[@DuanToOthers]

@garends225 yea sure, I used a Fuji 16-55mm lens (my fav video lens)

[@VioletGOKU]

1. You're using a very narrow aperture for most shots, and even there the focus can be seen pulsating when you move close to the subject. AF issues are highlighted when people use wide open aperture. 2. In a couple of shots where you have indeed used wide aperture, you are zooming the frame in video edit, not using your lens to zoom. Not sure if you had set the cmaera static on tripod and the AF settings to object tracking instead of AF-C. 3. You mentioned in other comment replies that you have turned OFF eye tracking. So, you're not the right person to comment on bug fix that the firmware update was supposed to fix in the first place. Majority of us are facing issues even after the firmware update and you're posting misleading info here with deliberately designed shots where issue will be minimized. This doesn't do any good to us consumers. We are at loss if we blindly support brands instead of holding them accountable for delivering quality.

[@DuanToOthers]

Hey @VioletGoku not intending to lead people astray or off the hook. This is def a massive improvement from the previous firmware where the camera with same settings and type of shots failed to track faces properly. I mentioned I'm impressed because of the difference but sure it's not perfect. Where I dollied in fast there was hunting for focus but even that can maybe be fine tune if you play with the settings.

[@ehrickwilliam]

Now you place an object in front of the lens, then remove it from the scene, and the camera doesn't know what to do and no longer seeks focus. fuji destroy my xh2s

[@DavidPeters-ys2jn]

Not shots bro!!! 👌

[@DuanToOthers]

Thanks 🙏

[@VinceDae]

did you forget a ND filter?--- that framerate is JAGGGGGGGED :) otherwise looks good!

[@DuanToOthers]

I saw I am not sure why. I used an ND filter🙈

[@VinceDae]

@@DuanToOthersthat’s crazy - must be the bitrate of the upload maybe? Or does it also lag on your computer ? :)

[@DuanToOthers]

@VinceDae could be, I'll do some investigating tomorrow 🧐
