So with all of that said, do you (or anybody out there) find eye af would have a really high hit rate (like a Canon/Sony) with kids without setting af to confirm focus first? at something like 10fps ? And does that confirm-first method feel laggy? Really dying to finally get a Fuji and it’s awesome AWB/SkinTones/colors w/ great eye af like Sony, etc… or close…. Thanks!

That’s the issue isn’t it.

So consider this

Canon EOS R6

Mechanical 12 FPS

Electronic 20 FPS

Prone to Rolling Shutter

Sony A7 IV

10 FPS Max

Electronic is Prone to Rolling Shutter

Fuji X-H2S

Mechanical 15 FPS Max

Electronic 40 FPS Max 0 Blackout with AF

Rolling Shutter is not a significant issue at all.

So, if you can drop to 15 FPS Electronic with a 100% hit rate, and you’re only dropping about 11% of the frames at 40 FPS Electronic Shutter, then I would say it is already ahead of the competition that is in the same price range.

Oh and Confirm AF was about 15 FPS, so that’s pretty damn good. Also, I can shoot Electronic shutter without worrying about distortion. This is a crop sensor A9 II or A1 class camera.

Ah, great, thanks for the breakdown! Fuji sounds like a powerhouse w/ that stacked sensor for sure and I do love so much about Fuji cameras already. Sony A7IV skin tones weren’t my personal fave and it’s now between r6 and x-h2s for me. Advantages w/ both and a tough call. Thanks again for starting a thread and for sharing those shots!

I honestly thought about the R6, but I cannot stand Canon controls. Also, their best lenses are all around $2000! Most of Fuji’s best lenses are under $1000 and as far as I know, there are only 5 lenses above that price. Then some owners started talking about moire with the sensor, so I looked at the Z6 II and that AF system is just awkward even still. So, Fuji delivered what I wanted with the AF improvements and it was a done deal.
