Fujifilm X-H2S has ProRes internal, ProRes RAW, and BRAW external Recording
Fujifilm right now introduced their new flagship X Sequence mirrorless digital digital camera, Fujifilm X-H2S. The APS-C hybrid digital camera has superior options for each nonetheless pictures and video. It’s the most superior X Sequence mirrorless digital camera but. The X-H2S contains an all-new APS-C sensor that options Fujifilm’s 26.16MP X-Trans CMOS 5 HS sensor, which is a stacked, back-side illuminated imaging sensor with a sign studying pace as much as 4 occasions quicker than Fujifilm’s earlier X-Trans CMOS.
X-Trans CMOS 5, mixed with the brand new X-Processor 5, doubles the X-H2S’s processing energy in comparison with X-Processor 4, significantly enhances general picture IQ at decrease ISOs, and reduces noise at greater ISOs. Topic-detection AF maximizes the monitoring pace and accuracy of transferring topics, made doable with the addition of an AI processor.

Decreased Rolling Shutter
The sensor’s readout pace of 1/180 seconds when recording helps reduce rolling shutter on transferring topics or when the digital camera itself is transferring. A heat-dissipating design brings the 4K/60P steady video recording time to roughly 240 minutes, whereas the elective FAN-001 cooling fan accent assists with sustaining comparable ranges of efficiency in high-temperature circumstances.
FAN-001 Cooling Accent
The FAN-001 cooling fan accent is an fascinating concept. Canon designed the R5C with a fan on the again to chill it off and allow higher efficiency. Fujifilm’s determination to make it an adjunct is an efficient one because it gained’t add bulk when not wanted for stills use.
The digital camera powers the fan, so there isn’t a want for exterior battery options. Fujifilm states the heat-dissipating design brings the 4K/60P steady video recording time to roughly 240 minutes. The fan extends continouse video recording time at excessive temperatures. It’s going to eradicate issues of overheating that might shut the digital camera down. The FAN-001 cooling fan retails for $199 USD.
New Autofocus System
Fujifilm states the autofocus is far improved on the X-H2S. The digital camera has a excessive variety of AF calculations carried out per second which improves general AF accuracy and allows subject-detection AF. The system makes use of Deep Studying expertise; topic detection AF implements a sophisticated prediction algorithm to enhance the efficiency of Zone AF by refining the digital camera’s potential to trace transferring topics in low-contrast environments. Topic detection and monitoring have additionally expanded from human faces and eyes to now embrace animals, birds, automobiles, bikes, bicycles, airplanes, and trains.
The AF can work in low mild ranges right down to -7EV and sustain with each quick and erratically transferring topics. It now options Topic Detection Autofocus, using AI to ship a much-improved autofocus system.
Focus Monitoring
Fujifilm states the brand new focus monitoring is the perfect but within the X sequence of cameras. The X-H2S controls section detection pixels independently from the picture show when in burst mode This triples the variety of calculations in phase-detection from the X-T4 and allows high-speed focus even throughout high-speed steady capturing.
In-Physique Picture Stabilization

The digital camera options an all-new five-axis, in-body picture stabilization system, which gives as much as 7.0-stops of picture stabilization.
Excessive-Decision Viewfinder

● X-H2S’s digital viewfinder makes use of a high-resolution, 5.76-million-dot panel with a magnification of 0.8x. With a body fee of roughly 120fps, the sleek viewfinder gives stellar visibility on account of robust suppression of parallax and distortion (which generally happens when a watch place turns into displaced whereas utilizing the viewfinder) thereby enabling correct topic monitoring.

One Good Digicam
The brand new Fujifilm X-H2S seems to be like an important improve, and the video options alone are large. The flexibility to have an S35 (APS-C) measurement sensor that information 10 Bit 4:2:2 in ProRes is incredible. No transcoding is required.
I’ve at all times favored Fujifilm colour with the X-T4. My solely challenge was the autofocus didn’t carry out in addition to I’d have favored. It seems to be like Fujifilm addressed this and extra. The retail value of $2499 USD is priced competitively with a stable set of options for each video and stills.
However wait.. there’s extra

Price mentioning is a brand new zoom lens. The FUJINON XF 18-120mm F4 LM PZ WR lens is a hybrid video/nonetheless lens with a zoom rocker on the facet. The lens is parfocal. A primary for a nonetheless lens. This may make capturing video a lot simpler as you punch in, set focus, and you may reframe with out dropping focus, identical to a cinema and ENG lens performs. It’s not achieved with electronics. It’s designed to be parfocal. The vary can be good for a parfocal lens at 18-120mm with a continuing F4. Be taught extra concerning the lenses right here.
