Fujifilm X-H2 Mirrorless Digital Camera XF16-80mm Lens Kit - Black

To keep it simple, here is a list of the strengths and weaknesses of this camera: + The image clarity is amazing and you can especially notice it when using the new 18mm, 23mm, 33mm, or 53mm lenses. Those are the three new primes made specifically for the additional pixels. + As with all of the Fujifilm cameras, the lens simulations are awesome. I have previously owned both Nikon and Cannon cameras and I may have used maybe 1% of the images straight out of the camera without editing in Photoshop etc. With the Fujifilm camera I probably use 25% of the images straight out of the camera and I am very picky with what I will use. + The focus speed is very fast and accurate. I really didn't have any problem with the X-T4 with regards to it's autofocus speed but this one is even better although not by a large margin in my opinion. There just wasn't a large room for improvement at the start. + The size of the camera is perfect for my hands. It is a bit larger than the X-T4 but not that much heavier and the size hits in my end very well with out putting on a bracket like I had to with the X-T4 which probably made it weight the same anyway. + I really love how they adjusted the display so you could always have the 3D electronic level on. I hope that they do this with all of their cameras in the future. I use this all the time with so many shots so it is nice to have in automatically on at all times. + The in camera view is extremely clear and never blacks out and with the fast refresh rate, you never miss an image and the clarity is amazing. + The new autofocus button (M, C, S). I am indifferent to the button but do really like being able to set it to go along with my C settings on the PSAM dial. Because of portrait settings I like certain settings but I prefer manual for landscape and being able to do this to this level I really like. -+ The PSAM dial. I would actually prefer it did not use this dial. However, it is VERY useful to me with regards to all of the settings one can adjust with the C pre-defined settings. I really wish Fujifilm could figure out a way to allow a person to control all of the settings (like image size, image quality, autofocus setting, etc.) with the Q settings in the other cameras like the X-T4. I do not understand why they can't do this in the others and I find this very useful and then I would not want the PSAM dial at all. - My biggest hang up is in the removal of the the clickable command dials. I really hate this! It is very nice in the other cameras to be able to set this to things like the ISO so you don't have to waste a button and are very easy to adjust quickly. - This is getting EXTREMELY picky but a friend of mine has the old Fujifilm XF-10 camera. I rarely use the Filter settings but he was showing me all of the extra ones on his camera and some of the cool images straight out of the camera. I do not understand when they have already done the programming to create these, why they don't do that on all following cameras. There are very few things that I dislike about this camera and am actually very pleased with how well it both handles and performs.

I have had this camera and the fuji 16-80mm zoom lens for about 2 years. I have been very happy with the purchase. Fuji also continues to improve the SW with 2 to 3 new releases a year. This is a professional-grade camera at a very reasonable price. The level of control and customization is amazing although it does requires quite a bit of study and experimentation. The large variety of film simulation choices has been one of the most rewarding aspects. I shoot a lot of pictures but hate doing all the post work. With the film simulation, I rarely miss not using the raw files. It also saves a lot of storage space. Cloud storage is not free. Earlier firmware had some out of focus situation. The latest FW seems a lot better. Again, they keep improving.

Coming from the Fujifilm X-T3 , this camera feels more robust and easier to handle because of the large grip. I absolutely love shooting with it and I take it everywhere. With that being said, the looks and feel shouldn’t justify your purchase decision alone. I don’t shoot videos at all so I didn’t opt for the S version but this camera is certainly capable. The battery life is great compared to the XT3 and I love the always on display. The view finder is bright and crisp. The auto focus is very nice as well. With the 40 megapixels, I notice the difference when I crop images and zooming in to see the clarity and sharpness. I won’t be an amateur much longer. I feel like I have arrived when I shoot with this lol. No seriously, great camera. If you want to upgrade or just try it out you should. The price may be steep so your current camera may get the job done just fine.

Good

I've been shooting pictures and a little video since the film days. I've mainly used DSLR's and had some reservations switching to mirrorless cameras. This camera has put all my reservations to rest. The viewfinder provides an electronic view better than the best digital SLR cameras because of its electronically controlled brightness that shows what your actual picture will look like, or you can have it show the natural view like DSLR. The difference is that at 120 MHz, the view is just as good as a pentaprism used in a DSLR. Secondly, it is somewhat lighter than an equivalent full frame camera since its APSC, but the pictures look just as good with the advances in sensor technology. Fujifilm's latest lenses developed for the 40 MP sensor are fast and sharp edge to edge and priced less than equivalent full frame lenses. I am in love with this system and this camera in particular, and the viewfinder was what finally sealed the deal for me.

Consider a different option! I bought this camera as a Christmas gift for my husband in early October. He got it early so he could use it on our Christmas trip to Germany. During a firmware update the camera 'bricked'. Now it will not turn on at all. Unfortunately this order was apparently fulfilled by an unauthorized dealer (6th Ave Electronics) and Fuji says because of this 'there is no warranty from Fuji'. My husband is still trying to sort this out, but based on this experience I urge you to consider other cameras and be certain that the party fulfilling the order for this or any item is an authorized dealer and not part of the 'gray market'.

I'm really pleased with the X-H2. As a long time Nikon shooter, I wanted a high megapixel count mirrorless to play with. 8000 shots later, I must say, I have not been disappointed. Superb detail, excellent low ISO colors, and cool film simulations make using it a lot of fun. I doubt casual users will see a reason to pay the price. (many less expensive choices for point and shooters) Advanced users will love it.

Just bought that one in addition to my X-H2S The X-H2 is a beast for photo, love the grip on those compared to a X-T5. Gotta love the film simulation. No doubt 5 star for Fuji. Fast delivery as always

Item is faulty and amazon and the seller AMGT ltd are refusing to uphold the warranty of the product after being promised numerous times by different customer service agents that I would be getting a refund!

I'm a bit biased here but I'm a big fujifilm enthusiast. This is the flagship for photography cameras put out by fujifilm (despite its similarities to the x-t5) and it shows! Also props to the seller for selling it below market price and delivering it at a reasonable time.

Bought as an upgrade from the Panasonic G9, since I wanted higher resolution for cropping and the X-H2 body is a close copy of the G9, which has handling I like. Image quality is much better in low light, and the 40MP sensor gives way more options in post than the G9 20MP sensor. The auto-focus is much better than the G9 for everything except macro, where the X-H2 seems to focus just a little bit short -- e.g. on the nearest leg of an insect, rather than they eye or thorax -- even when using the "insect detect" feature added in firmware 3.0. I'm not getting nearly the promised battery-life -- maybe "battery life" didn't factor in the AF power draw? -- so I'll have to buy spares to do a full day's shooting. Be warned that Fuji RAW files are a challenge for some RAW processing programs -- Affinity Photo and Lightroom both produced desaturated and low-detail images from it -- so you should definitely use the freeware version of Capture One provided from Fuji. Its processing demands will strain ordinary laptop CPUs and older desktop CPUs too, and you will have to choose whether to put C1 on your laptop or desktop since the freeware version of C1 allows only one installation. However, the SOOC Fuji jpegs are almost as good at dynamic range as what I can get from editing any half-way-decently-exposed RAW files, so I have fewer photos that I have to run through a full RAW processing regimen than I did with the G9.

Lots to like. Even has GPS that I didn’t knew it had. Coming from full frame Canon DSLR’s. Got the Fringer adapter for all my Canon lenses and they work well with it. The Jpegs coming right out of the camera are extremely nice with lots of film simulations to choose from. It may change how you think about raws on this camera. I would more heavily edit the raws on my Canon’s to get what I like, not so much on the XH2. Jpegs edit well but not really needed imagine that. Low light high iso is just ok, not quite like my full frames. The resolution is fantastic but the file sizes are large and will become an issue. More storage solutions coming my way. Kit lens is good but not stellar for this high resolution camera. Everything you would expect from a flag ship camera.
