I own both XH2s and XH2. The AF of XH2 is close to perfect on still subject Now talking about tracking in AFC with subject recognition in burst, if I compare the 2 bodies I would quote the XH2 as 60% of XH2s performance which means 40% of misses or OOF shots in fast action.

My minute of philosophy : anyway, at the end of the day among the files recorded, you nearly always have THE file you wanted..

Clearly XH2 is not designed for very fast action, but in real world the camera does deliver

Coming back to quality of built, I do find all the small doors including the battery one to be a bit flimsy. The XH1 was much stronger. Yes I know, weight is the enemy...

Would you say worth swapping from an X-H2 to an X-H2S for the better subject detection alone, or only if that subject is moving? I’m wondering whether I’ve just got a ‘bad’ copy of the X-H2 and so maybe swapping for another body might solve some of the issues, at least the hardware ones.
