The blind test answers. A is the XH2S w/ the speed booster B is the 6K Pro

A unique video no one else has done, my main take away that I hadn't considered is this is a path to BRAW with auto-focus, if the monitor to camera issues are worked out.

Thanks for uploading the files! I've messed around with them on Resolve, and found out I really liked grading those flog2 files, way more than BRAW. They're a little on the yellow side, but a light touch of color warper was enough to get them looking great, and it was easier getting them how I wanted then the BRAW from either camera. My baseline is using color space transform, as if the footage was LogC, and then do the warping, and it's been working great I'm starting to consider the X-H2S as my next camera!

That short video in the studio was amazing! I also have been wondering about external BRAW on the xh2s, thanks for the detailed video!

Thank you very much for this video and uploading the files. I recently changed from my trusty BMPCC 4K to the Fuji X-H2s. I'm loving the Fuji. In many cases, I find 422HQ internally to be very good. I'm still undecided about BRAW. It seems less optimized for Fuji than for BMD's own cameras, so I feel it has less detail and a few other issues.

I often use BRAW external recording (on Lumix) and found this comparison video very informative and really helpful. Thanks!

Thank you soooo much for such an indepth comparison. Gonna wait a while for Fujifilm to iron out the firmware before purchasing the X-H2S. It's a pity there doesn't seem to be dual native ISO in BRAW though. Maybe if BM releases a new Video Assist with a caddy for nvme SSDs that would be awesome. I think the ISO issue is the same with other products (Panasonic/sigma fp)? If I'm not wrong, only BM cameras can change the ISO in post. Something about how the ISO scaling is different across brands or something so BM implemented it as exposure change instead of ISO change. And BM shifts the dynamic range stops depending on ISO right? Like how it moves more stops to highlights or shadows based on ISO. So maybe other brands don't do that at all, resulting in the inability to use ISO in post. I feel like apart from the things you mentioned, there's a couple more things to Fuji needs to work on like manual focus customization. Panasonic let's you choose the degree of rotation but Fujifilm doesn't. The Tamron 17-70 is hard to use for manual focus cos I think it's like 5 million degrees of rotations from min to infinity.

That's a great comparison. It's nice to see tests like this from real footage. 💣

Thanks! I'm a cheapo when it comes to recording video, I just do 10 bit Long GOP H264 internally on my Lumix S1. Good enough for long form content, but I am waiting for BM Design to release the next gen of the Video Asssist 12G, ideally with CFExpress Type B card support and more stability. I've had issues with BM Pocket OG and 2.5K cinema cameras, where it turned half the day's footage into a pixel mush. Because of this I never use BM cameras on biggee projects, despite their image being one of the nicest under 10000 USD

thanks for doing the test and sharing the footage for download! that exclamation mark warning on the BMVA means it's dropping frames so my guess is the stuttering footage is because of the card not being able to write fast enough, I've had that issue in the past when shooting 60+fps but once I got a faster card it stopped - also re the issue with plugging in an ssd on the bottom of the monitor and mounting you mention, I bought a cage for the monitor and so you can mount an ssd holder (I have one for the samsung t5) and then just flip the monitor upside down (set the screen rotation in the menu to automatic) and then you can plug in on "top" of the monitor and secure the ssd to it as well so you can still freely rotate the monitor - I usually set my BMVA to stop recording when it detects dropped frames so there's no chance of being surprised by stuttering footage later on. getting my xhs2 next week and looking forward to doing some tests myself!

Great video. Thinking about picking up one of these. Does it still have lagging issues to this day?

After viewing a number of videos on the Fuji i have to say there is just something about the look that the XH2S produces that feels very filmic to me. My main daily drivers are RED ( Raptor and Komodo ) and the reason I gravitated towards RED is that it has a very filmic look without needing to put much in effort. I’m not sure if it’s the X2Hs ability’s to produce a highly detailed image without it looking too digital / video-y or if it’s the colors or the motion cadence but I haven’t seen a camera outside of RED / ARRI produce an image that strikes me the same way the Fuji does other than maybe the Kinifinity cameras I once owned and yes this also includes the BM, Ursa’s, P4K and 6K that I have owned at one point or another. I’m pretty excited to pick up the Fuji soon.

The XH2s is a beast! As is the new XS20 and I’m a Pocket 3k owner.

Cine Dailies! Video! Question: obviously for long format filming the disjunction issues between the video assist and the camera is not ideal. But especially for take based bursty narrative work, would you say the experience is usable for more manual focus pulling intentionally lit based narrative projects? Or do the units cause so many issues that it truly takes valuable time away from the production schedule of a given day? Insights on this is really helpful as it makes the difference between a tolerable setup in which we can still get braw out of this camera or having a contemplate the prores raw workflow

Great stuff man! Saved me a lot of time and research (and money lol) with this. I do some wedding work and my work is starting to pick up a lot and I've been with Fuji since the start but I've always chased after the blackmagic image but could never quite replicate it on Fujifilm. Don't get me wrong I love Fuji colors, but when it comes to video work BMPCC's are just better, the sharpening, highlight rolloff and all that is just so beautiful on blackmagic and just not quite the same on any mirrorless brand. My question is without backup recording is blackmagic worth it for weddings? I really want that image for my couples, but I havent found a legit backup solution for my couples that I would use if I used a bmpcc camera as my main on wedding day. Some insight would be super appreciated. Thanks!

Love the review! Still have my xt3, made the jump back to canon and got the R5 because they gave me what I wanted. Waited on the xh2 for a couple years and they didn't release it, but it seems like a good upgrade form the previous years. I think the direction I'm going c70 is what I'm going for next year.

@@CineDailies definitely but that certain look from the "cinema" cameras, I can tell the difference. The pocket cameras especially in raw have that subtle difference, that's why to me they are amazing.

Really useful. Many thanks. BTW, what system do you use to shoot your own talking parts (cam ? glass?). Very nice and clean image.

If you set noise reduction to -4 on the fuji and do the noise reduction in davinci resolve you can get up to 13.8 stops of dynamic range with the SNR of 2 which exceeds the blackmagic by full 2 stops.

So I have the nearly exact same setup. I am also about to post some test but what I can tell so far, is that you are sadly right. At the moment the combination of Braw and the X-H2s is a bit disappointing. Monitor lag, stottery image, pink screen due to weird connection losses. Regarding the the comparison of 1000 iso bmpcc to 1000 Xh2s, I am not too sure that makes a lot of sense. Since the real base ISO of the XH2S would be 640 but we (sadly) can not access it. So we stick with an amplified 1000 iso signal in BRAW, which is obviously more noisy. But if you prefer BMPCC 6k at 3200 vs XH2s at 3200 they are very identical in terms of noise performance. Since even setting your BMPCC 6k to 1000 does not actually, really amplify the signal. You are still in the ISO 400 circuit, just altering the contrast or exposure curve. So you were basically comparing 400 ISO Circuit to an actually amplified 1000 signal. I hope what I say is somewhat understandable 😅. Just my 2 cents. Regarding external recording of F-Log2, that's of course possible, but not in RAW but in external ProRes 422HQ. And it seems to have a little better noise performance, maybe due to the magic of the cam. But I also read that recording 6.2K ProRes 422HQ internally would have the overall best performance at the moment. Back to the BRAW and ISO thing. What I think is strange thou is, that when filming ProRes-Raw, you can change the iso in post using Assimilate (not sure if it is actually changing or just adjusting linear gain). Also some KZreadrs Claim, that the Xh2s has dual ISO at 640 and 3200. I am just not sure if it really is dual Gain or just the High-Iso-NR kicking in at 3200. OK enough talking. Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it a lot. Greets.

Let me catch my breath. Sir the colors you got out of the X-h2s is amazing. Can you please go back and do a video on how you color graded the video profile with your friend. You do any one on one 🤔

Hey, Im having a bit of a dilemma choosing between the two cameras, can you help? I want to shoot horror short films, not really interested in photography. From the videos I've watched, the black magic seems to have superior low light to the XH2s. Can you confirm? I want to be able to shoot in low light, I love the footage that comes out of the black magic, but I'm worried about not having stabilization. Any thoughts on that? Im also going to be travelling to iceland and want to get some footage there. I feel like the rig for the black magic might be a bit heavy and too much to take around hiking with me. Let me know what you think is the better choice if youd be so kind, I'd reallllllly appreciate it. Also, is it just with the black magic assist that the xh2s doesnt have dual gain iso? Or does it not have that completely?

Another excellent video and you came to similar conclusions as myself when testing Braw on the X-H2S though I never got any stuttering or warning symbols maybe it is your sd cards I was using Kingston 128GB cards and a Samsung T5 ssd. I saw some where that you can’t change the iso in post because the camera doesn’t have dual native ISO’s so there is no range to select so Blackmagic just gave you the exposure slider which covers the whole range but that could just be speculation.

Hey ! Thanks a lot ! I got X-T3 and the VA 7" 12G, and I've got a huge drawback : latency between the monitor and the camera. 4 frames minimum (I have sound entry that I can't use then...) But basically, do you get this latency also, is it usable to work with, or you missed all movement within the frame, as the real life movement is going 4 frames before you can see it ^^' I'm think about taking the X-S20 for Braw (to not invest too much), do you think it would be reliable ? That's not the X-H2S workhorse, but it's still a pretty good camera for the budget ! Thank you for your videos, they are really helpfull !

I’m happy with the internal recordings of the xh2s, but I do have a ninja v in the rare case I would want to shoot raw and I use fcpx.

I noticed when downloading the footage that the Fuji xh2s Braw, has some weird pixles appearing randomly, most of them white, some of them are red even, kinda ruins the footage in my oppinion

Hi! Which kind of dummy do you use at Fuji and Anton Bauer?

I believe A is Fuji, B is Blackmagic. A leans a bit magenta, B leans a little warm and green. Thanks for this comparison! Love the image on the BMPCC6K, but can’t live with the non-locking EF mount and the rolling shutter performance. So, I’ve been hopeful the Fuji would make a good alternative. Looks like it fares really well in terms of image quality! Also, interesting side note - the Fuji has better dynamic range when using internal F-Log 2 recording modes - as that is the only way to utilize the 14-bit sensor readout. Not sure quite how much of an impact that makes though. Might be an interesting comparison to do at some point - internal ProRes vs external BRAW dynamic range. Really appreciate the content!

Also I do shoot on film 35 and 120 so If they day will come I'll stay with Fuji 50 or 100s and adapt Mamiya and Nikon lenses. Also BMPCC6K will always be the starting point as a video workhorse, but the lacking of autofocus, since it's a cinema camera will create the environment for the Fuji to shine more in a lot of daily situations.

Yep. Confirmed here. It's a Blackmagic Video Assist thing, not an X-H2S thing. ISO control is disabled for all third party cameras recording in the the Video Assist. Seems the exposure control is good enough though. kzread.info/dash/bejne/d6uul8iKYcickpc.html

Watching this video again because it's so interesting! Something I'm inquisitive about is that the xh-2s BRAW looks to have a bit more dynamic range than the 6k in the shadows and mids. On the side-by-side image showing just the log images, you can tell that the mids and shadows are waaaaay brighter on the xh2-s. This suggests that even though the highlights are clipped, there is probably quite a bit more info in the shadows of the fuji braw. This makes sense because iso 1000 on the 6k pushes all of the DR into the highlights. Have you seen this to be true? Could you do a test with them both right below clipping white and see if the fuji does any better?

Do you think the Fuji is better than the Sony a7iv?

Congratulations on your job, I have a question, does it do 4.8K 60P? do you have any examples?

yes it does but I didn't bother with it. maybe in my follow up video

what song is playing at 4:40?

Selling my XT4’s and going all in on XH2 and H2S to expedite workflow. Simple talking head with minimal color grading means the workflow is really fast now that autofocus is reliable. I’m not touching raw or even ProRes yet 😂

The work around I've found for ISO selection in third-party BRAW was the exposure slider in the raw tab. I might be wrong and welcome that but I always understood that was essentially manually adjusting ISO? Probably wrong though.

Could be right though!
