The issue here is that the current 40 MP sensor would need a mechanical shutter, as it has far too much rolling shutter to be use only with ES. If IBIS is a necessity, then it's a catch-22 situation.

Sorry - that's wrong. My wife hasn't used anything by the electronic shutter with her XH2. Rolling shutter is a bigger problem in video, i.e., panning in video.

I would be interested in an XPro4 with a 40 MP sensor with only ES and IBIS. After all the XPro is a photographers camera - not a video camera.

Thanks for that real-world perspective, much appreciated. I've also used the ES on my X-H1 numerous times and have never had a problem with it.

I am however uncertain the scan rate is good enough in all scenarios for Fuji to launch the X-Pro without a mechanical shutter. Panning is a thing in photography as well, and I am not sure they would like the possible bad press this would induce.

Still from the Cameralabs video review of the X-H2
