The Fujifilm X-H2 is here, bringing with it the highest image quality seen yet in the X-series range. This quality is thanks to the brand new X-trans CMOS 5 image sensor, which includes an astonishing 40.2MP of resolution. Paired with Fujifilm's high-performance X-Processor 5, this backside illuminated sensor also helps the X-H2 excel at video recording, with up to 8K30p internal video recording available. Ideal for sports and action capture, the X-H2 features an improved maximum shutter speed of an amazing 1/180,000 of a second using the electronic shutter (1/8000s Mechanical) and a broad ISO range of 125-12800 (Extended 64-51,200). The body design of the X-H2 is the same as the other flagship model in the range, the X-H2S, meaning this mirrorless camera features a rugged weather-sealed design, a top LCD panel for reading quick settings while shooting, and both a tilting and touch-sensitive LCD screen and a high-resolution EVF are available for image composition. This is the pick of the Fujifilm X-Series if your goal is high-resolution imagery.
This exciting new mirrorless camera, the Fujifilm X-H2, joins the X-H2S as the flagship model in Fujifilm's X-series range. The X-H2 sets itself apart from other models in the range with its brand-new 40.2MP X-Trans CMOS image sensor, which it pairs with an X-Processor 5 to deliver unprecedented levels of image quality, from stills to video, with 8K30p video resolution also on offer. With this model being the first APS-C format model ever released to offer 8K30p Apple ProRes recording internally, Fujifilm caters to professional photographers of all types, whether their main interest is the still or moving image.
Stabilisation & AF Performance
To make the most of this high-resolution imaging performance, the X-H2 features in-body image stabilisation, which is capable of up to 7-stops of stabilisation. Handheld still and video recording is made possible by this impressive stabilisation system, even in dim lighting conditions. A fast and accurate AF system is also available in this camera, with highlights being an increased amount of phase-detection AF points and improved tracking performance, which makes the camera suitable for focusing on a greater variety of subjects. Focussing during video recording has also been improved, thanks to a new movie AF algorithm, manual focus assist, and focus peaking all on offer.
Body design features
Featuring the same high-quality design as the Fujifilm X-H2S, the X-H2 includes a rugged weather-sealed design, with 79 weather-sealed points providing dust and moisture resistance. This camera can be used with confidence both in the studio and on-location. To frame and compose your photographic work, this camera includes both a 3-inch tilting and touch-sensitive LCD screen and a high-resolution EVF screen. The EVF includes a fast refresh rate and improved parallax and distortion control for a pleasing user experience.
The Fujifilm X-H2 includes dual memory card slots for managing for high-quality photo and video files, with CF Express Type B Cards recommended for exploring the full video potential of the camera. Other highlights of this impressive mirrorless body include a top LCD panel which offers a quick readout of essential shooting information, which means a quick glance is all you need before firing off your next shot.
ProfessionalFunctionality
Perfect for capturing fast-paced subjects, the Fujifilm X-H2 features an improved maximum shutter speed of a blistering 1/180,000 of a second when using the electronic shutter. In order to harness these top speeds, users can enjoy the broad ISO range which starts at a very low ISO 125. The X-H2 offers a speedy continuous shooting rate of 20 frames per second when using the electronic shutter, although this is with slight cropping; 15FPS continuous shooting is available at full resolution when using the mechanical shutter. The Fujifilm X-H2 is the first X-Series model to include Pixel Shift multi-function, which utilises the camera IBIS mechanism to capture 20 images which can then be combined using Pixel Shift Combiner software. This results in a super high-resolution image file that can be put to best use by professional and commercial photographers.
