If I listened to the "expert" opinions on this forum ...

... I would've sold or thrown my X-H2 into a river a long time ago. I'd never even consider a Fuji camera either lol.

Base ISO is where I live so ISO 6400+ comparisons are useless to me. I crack ISO 3200 on my X-H2 occasionally (without any drama - using PS and ACR). ISO 200 on the X-T2 is better than the X-H2 (as it's base ISO for the X-T2) - but the X-H2 is way better at my use case ISOs of 125, 64 and 500. Check out the Bob the Mod's graph of ISO vs. noise.

The X-H2 outperforms my X-T3s ... that replaced my XT-2s ... that replaced my X-P1 - so you're pushing edge case behavior that doesn't live in my real world of photography - shrug.

Each Fuji sensor iteration has pushed me to change my shooting and processing strategies and I'm cool with the X-H2. Obviously, you're not - so my advice is to find a camera that works best for you. That's my advice to anyone choosing a modern digital camera. If ISO 6400 behavior is your jam, then you should find the best cam behavior at that light level.

Good light and good pics to you!
