great video got the XH1 yesterday, but for the life of me i cannot figure out how to change from Aperture to Manual to Shutter priority modes. can you help.
It’s all with the dials if you want aperture priority, set your aperture on the ring then turn the dials for the ISO and shutter speed to auto if you want shutter priority, set your shutter speed then turn your aperture ring, and I also dialed to auto
if i ever get more into the video side of things i will upgrade from my xh1. But even then the xt4 exists as a good step up. Or if i just wanna take my photography even further the xh2 and xt5 are around
I am considering a XH1 as the price for a used one is getting so attractive. As i do mostly still photos, i wonder if the IBIS on XH1 worth buying? Actually, I've got many manual lens😂.
Great test, thanks for the video. Also I hit that subscribe button so you can see that number go up! I'm with ya, I make mostly GFX videos and a few XF here and there. Trying to hit that 1k goal! Cheers.
I bought the XH1 with battery grip a couple years ago and love it. Haven’t had time to shoot it much due to work, but I will only buy another Fuji if IBIS is part of Fuji camera. The XH2 isn’t compelling enough for me to upgrade
it is such a solid camera. I wasn't the biggest fan of the handling at first because I used the xt4 so much but now Its hard for me to like using the xt4
Thank you for this. Long time Fuji xt2 user (lots of glass) who just rented the Q2 and I am saving as well. I think it is worth it even if the q3 turns out to be awesome.
If you are happy with your camera and feel it isn’t limiting you then your all good. I was using the xh1 right up to getting this camera for most my work photography’s love the xh1
xt4 is a great camera. very hard to beat as a total package. The xh2 is better in auto focus. the XH2 does crop. if you want a step up in video the xh2s is the way to go hands down. I do not really love the xh2 at the moment for anything but photos
There is no problem with the second card slot, I bought a 256 GB recommended card on sale for the same price as a good SD card. I had the X-H1 and enjoyed it, sold it to my brother. I upgraded to the X-T4 and it was measurably better than the H1 in autofocus. Sold the T4 for the X-H2S, UNREAL upgrade to the autofocus from the T4. This makes a huge difference in keepers for photography. When I look at the older pictures I shot from previous X-Trans cameras a lot are ever so slightly off focus (not enough to ruin the shot), 99% of the X2S shots are perfectly focused. I like ALL of the Fuji cameras, but operating the X-H2S is like using a cheat code. LOVE IT!
Having recently retired from professional photography I decided to skip the X-H2s and X-T5, and am still using my X-T2 and X-H1. They do everything I ask for :)
@@valeries4205 Really the main difference is whether or not you want some IBIS (Stabilisation in the camera body). Otherwise, same sensor and processor, so the images are identical.
If you think that the price of the Q2 will come down after the Q3 comes out, you’ve got another think coming. The Q3 will make the Q2 less expensive by costing $1000 more. Those boys in Deutschland know how to squeeze every dollar, pound, euro,Deutschmark, franc, yen and rubel out of us.
Hi I own an x-t20 and I’d want to buy another one with weather resistant and the cameras that I planned to buy (fit in my budget) is either x-t2 or x-h1 what do you think is best choice
Since you have the X-T20 (that was my first Fuji) get the X-T2 as long as you are comfortable using the T-20. If it feels too small then consider the X-H1. The bigger grip is MUCH nicer for large hands.
Appreciate you doing these side by side tests. The H2s does look to be a little snappier than the H2. What would be a better comparison would be the H2s vs. the A7iv or R6mkii since all three of those cameras are all priced exactly the same. I realize that's a ton of expense, but a guy can dream, right? 🤣🤣
I also find the frames mostly blurry but I think it is motion blur. But quite hard to distinguish it from in or out of focus! Actually quite hard to test focus with a normal shutter angle. For focus, it would be maybe interesting to use unnaturally short exposure. The important thing for these shots is that the subject is sharp when it spots and you don't see any focus pulsing in my opinion.
@@pkolloch This is it. Thanks for clarifying my point better than I could. Every time it was paused, there was so much motion blur that by time it went through RU-vid to my screen, it just all looks blurry and “out of focus”.
I think the problem is that Taz probably didnt set the focus speed/sensitivity according to this situation. Ofcourse it would be blurry, out of focus or slow. In this scenario it was just about luck I guess. You would also suck in sport you didnt prepared for.
@@tazsmith Good to know because I'm trying to figure that out too, I want to upgrade from my XT-2. The speed alone was so nice on the xh2s. I do like sports and wildlife photography too so I think the speed and the 4k120 would be awesome to have for some good slowmo footage.
Hi Taz, thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences with this Q2. I think I'm in the same boat when you mentioned that while it is a beautifully built camera that takes incredible shots (seeing from your mini-portfolio from the video) I think I'd like to see what the Q3 has to offer hopefully early next year as I've been scouring the entire YT for Q2 reviews and other creators' and just hobbyists' personal experiences with the Q2 and if it's really "worth" the price point because this baby ain't cheap.
The image quality is near perfect. It has to be the lens. I shoot mostly fujifilm now and this camera blows the new Xh2 out of the water when it comes to image quality
@@tazsmith Oh that's good, my XS-10 and XT-3 only have full face and eye - no subject, I cant tap on say a dog and have it track the subject, only in photo mode.
"subject" tracking can be set to animal, bird, plane, train, car. If set to that, it will try to find a matching subject anywhere in the frame, with a preference to subjects closer to the focus square. It only tracks what it recognizes. You cannot e.g. just select a point on a wall or a candle and let it track that. Unfortunately
@@pkolloch Yes, sorry, that's what many refer to as subject tracking, but I can see how this could be confusing. I remember when I bought my X-T3 and was blown away by the tracking in photo mode, just tap on a hand, or a statue on a building or anything really that you want to be the subject and it will track it. I then switched to video mode and saw almost all the cool autofocus features just vanish and you are left with something quite primitive and unusable - this has stayed the case for 4+ years now :(
Just watched a few other reviews, you CANNOT tap on a moving object and have the camera track it in video mode, this only works in photo mode still, very frustrating :( - other cameras *ahem*sony*ahem* have done this for years. It will track trace eye/face and a few other objects from the list, not any moving object.
Very good job Taz thank you I have to report here that there is an improvement in autofocus functions on the 1.10 X-H2 firmware and of course they solved the naughty AF bug. Fujifilm seems to have done an almost all around perfect camera.
