I really love my X-H2S! It’s the Fujifilm camera that feels like a cinema camera more than a stills camera - the dynamic range and color texture are that good!

[Christo_glenn]

I shoot on a XH2S. I tried my mate's FX3 and loved it too! I still prefer my XH2S as it can be a very competent stills camera, but you can't go wrong with either system. The upside to Sony is definitely lens selection, but I just enjoy using Fuji cameras more.

[benvanmassenhove]

I have 2 x XH2s for event filmmaking. I do a lot of party's & nightlife, because of that I always wonder if a FX3 is not better for me (low light conditions). If I only did weddings I should stay with the fuji. But because of the nightlife I think there will be a time where I might jump to FF. I dont want to go over 2000/2500 iso on the fuji.

[seanmarkbaxter]

I worked with Sony for 5 years but in the past 2-3 I found that Fuji offers me an overall more pleasing image that suits me. When describing what "image quality" means I think it can be subjective because even when looking at objective stats on cameras, sometimes its indescribable how an image impacts you. For example, we can look at just about any full frame Sony camera and say technically it is better on just about every level than a Blackmagic. However, I still prefer the image of the Blackmagic and cant fully articulate why.

CineD has said the xh2s has 9 stops of latitude and has compared it to bring nearly as good as the Venice 2. Dynamic Range wise others have put the xh2s just ahead of the fx-3. And right the price difference is major

[motionstku]

I really like your content! Nice video man!

I also shot already on Canon, Blackmagic and Sony - but I´m very happy with the Xh2S atm. Shot my first wedding with the XH2s last week. Very excited about the result, so far the material looks really nice!

[skyeday]

XH2S is sick. Moved from Canon for it and haven’t looked back. Also a plus for me not to use the camera everyone talks about

[jarjartur]

It's an unpopular opinon about Sony IBIS, but I 100% agree. All I need from IBIS is to remove microjitter that a light gear produces and not create a "gimbal" experience. It is one of the reasons I sold my Lumix S5II, the corner wobble because of strong stabilization is just unusable for me (even noticible on 28mm). Currently can't decide between XH2S and FX3 but I hope renting them will help with a decision. Great video:)

[SilvaPereiraTiago]

That was one of my concerns, but I use the Fx3 as a photo/video camera combined with the A7IV. You almost can’t tell the difference between the photos. Of course the A7iv has more detail if you like crazy zoom in, but not like you expect it. I mix the gallery with both cameras’s pictures and my clients have never noticed any difference. So it’s a really good photo camera. Megapixels are an illusion.

[jessejayphotography]

When price is brought into the equation I think the X-H2S faults can be fairly forgiven. Absolutely if you need waveforms and all of that the FX3 is a better camera. But the sensor, for the price, on the H2S is incredibly good. Competing with FF cameras at least twice the price in both DR and latitude. It’s kinda insane Fuji did it. Really looking forward to what Fuji does with future cameras in this line!

[parmanduke]

Your Boston shirt auto street cred!! Love love love my X H2s

[wearetrackclub]

Haha love the intro! Really liked the challenge concept :)

[andrejvindis]

Hi there! Can anyone help me out? 90% of the reviews say that 120fps and especially 240fps, are worse than that of an xt4. Most of the videos also show quite heavy noise. What's up with that? Is this true regardless of the video settings?

[husnikast]

when you talk for example 8:51 . what camera did you use?

[andrew_nayes]

Great comparison, and nice to see your reactions to an unknown camera for you. At 6:24 you say that one big difference is sharpness, but that this is fixable in post. I wonder how you would match the FX3 to the sharpness in XH2s? I am looking into buying the FX30 or the XH2s, but I would very much like the sharpness of the XH2s. How would you match up the sharpness?

[MEWARIGUY]

What about auto focus & overheating cause I really wanted to buy my first camera it can be sony fx30 or fujixh2, till now I have rented gear and doing my cinematography stuff but now I wanted to have my own gear so what say? Which one is better ?

[ZeitouniJad]

I love the fujifilm system in general very capable APS-C cameras, the stacked sensor on the XH2S is a marvel. Very good lens quality and selection

[henriquenakandakare]

Great video! You can put the link of this table of dynamic range of CineD?

[edencompanyfilms-cmwu]

what kind of lens does he have on his Sony ?
