If video is your prime concern where fast action is involved - then the X-H2 would be the better choice.

Don't you mean X-H2S? Apologies if I've misread/misunderstood.

Of course I did.

A stacked sensor is going to have a faster read out than a non-stacked sensor. On the other hand we don't know what the rolling shutter will be in the XH2 since no one has published an full in depth review of this issue with final F/W. I expect Jordan on DPR will put it through its paces when the production camera is available.

However, while a stacked sensor will have a better faster read out than a non-stacked sensor, this sensor in the XH2 is state of the art technology and hence we will need to see how it performs. Will it have rolling shutter - sure. Will it be significant - we don't know. A mechanical shutter will produce rolling shutter under certain conditions since a slit travels across the sensor and the whole sensor is not exposed at the same time even with a mechanical sensor.
