Re: X-H2s three weeks in...

Thank you very much

for your very informative report of your X-H2  experience in REAL LIFE use !

Your shots  are very impressing both technically as „artistically“ as the portraits are authentical in an emotionally very touching way.

As for the IBIS/OIS:

I‘d like to know about EV rate with more modern Fujifilm lenses. As we all know, the 1.4/35 is one of the 3 lenses of the very beginning and dates in 2011/2012…

since it’s 1st Gen. AF was a lot slower than that of the newer gen. Lenses it might also take more time to send the exact Focussing distance to the body for exact calculation of the necessary movement of the IBIS.

Question: did you set the IBIS on „permanently on“ or not?  This consumes  more energy but Leeds at least with my X-T4 to better IBIS performance (even with the oldest primes) .

As for heavy use like fast AF, eye-AF, max. Shots/sec. and fast EVF frames, perhaps with film-Simulation PLUS IBIS …

… maybe even the enormous performant processor gets near its limits if you set all of them to max… ?

If this is the reason it might be easily possible to resolve the problem with a better firmware, which distributes the processors ressources in an better adapted way?

And at last: I think the new stacked sensor weighs more than the sensor of the last gen. Sensor… this might limit the IBIS with this first version of Firmware and should be possible to be corrected with coming firmware updates in the near future?

Again thank you very much for your real-Life review !

As someone who loved the old Lay-out of their User-Interface of the X-series I see certain advantages for a well and thoroughly designed mixture with direct access to customer-settings by a wheel including confirming the choice with a click on it (like as before in older bodies for other functions).

This is the first time that I am thinking about a purchase of the X-H2 or X-H2s to (perhaps) replace my X-T4 instead of a coming X-T5…

cheers
