I have to say that this is by far the best camera review I have witnessed to date, comparing cameras excellent, and operation. Well done, thanks again. You are making some decisions much easier and this review was done 4 yes ago. BRAVO!
how the hell does this channel not have more subs this is the best quality review there is
Even in 2020 with xt4 coming the xh1 is still Gr8

Excellent review of this camera, still today in 2023 I find it very useful and sincere.
Just bought two X-H1. The price in the UK: £699! Brand new!
This is the best review of the X-H1 one I've seen to date. You stayed away from reciting the spec sheet back to the viewer, and you focused on whats most important to many users in the real world. What a refreshing change. Also, this is the *only* review I've seen to date that discusses how Fuji put considerably more engineering into the lens mount's robustness and stiffness to accomodate long, fast, heavy prime telephoto lenses. As a motorsports photographer, this is quite important to me. Very well done! Thank you.

You are welcome, Stephen!
This is the most thorough X-H1 review for the video capabilities on KZread. Well done and thank you. I’m more than impressed.
Best review so far!:) Mentioned every single nuance and great comparisons as well. Great!
Definitely, the best X-H1 review so far, and one of the best camera reviews I've seen so far, in general. Very talented presenter, keep it up!
very detailed, well balanced review, thanks! probably the best down to earth and realistic Fuji review I have ever seen on youtube.
WOW!!! Fantastic review. I've watched several reviews on the X-H1, and no one...noooo one...did a deep dive like you did on the Eterna color profile. Thank you very much.
In fact this is the best review i have ever watched about the xh1 . Thank you
My comment came right in time! Love you guys. Awesome video as always. I think it's the chosen one! Happy I picked one up.

Dante Corbett I'm holding for the upcoming Nikon mirror less. (I use both Nikon and Fuji) . I'll make my decision then. What's your owner opinion on the AF speed for photography, and the AF tracking for video? How's the low light performance, namely in photos? So far...it's the batteries that are holding me back. And it's just to close to the Sony €€€ wise.. If it was under 2k Euros with Grip included..... Do you come from Fuji, or another brand, before getting the X-H1 ? Thanks. ;)
Probably the best X-H1 review out there, thank you.
This is the best review of reviews of ANY product I’ve ever seen. Beautiful! I enjoyed it so much! You’re insanely talented!

29:26 - This diagram was very helpful in understanding the film simulation modes.
Great review - very comprehensive covering the not so good as well as what makes this camera stand out. Particularly liked the graphic explanation of where Eterna sits along side all the other Fuji film simulations. This video is a must watch before you make a decision to buy the X-H1.
Best review of X-H1 yet. Thank u.
Finally, a thoughtful and unbiased look at the X-H1. Thank you!
Wirklich sehr informativ und dezent ohne irgendein Markenbashing. So etwas finde ich mal richtig gut, Danke für den Beitrag und deine Arbeit!
Very in depth and glad you went through the different settings to get an idea of how much control you have over the camera such as focus speed. And the awareness and attention to problems such as the inconsistency in focusing due to dr settings and having a temporary “fix” until a software update. I really liked your review with the xt-2 and the different color profiles you showcased with your preferred settings. And the depth of this review was just what i expected from you and then some. Thanks for the review
Dope! One of the best reviews I have ever seen.
Best review of the X-H1 by a good margin! Thanks for the thoughtful approach.
even four years later... a very good review and the advise is very much to the point.
Phenomenal review! Your image samples are so much better than some of the others I've seen haha
Great to see you guys are back!
Really nice work! It's one of the most enjoyable and well rounded reviews I've seen on this camera. It should be on Fuji rumours.
Your framing and pacing are the best I've ever seen. It's nice to see someone else who has "the eye". not many of us out there.
Love your reviews. They are quite something.. very unique.
Probably the best review on the XH-1 on youtube... Thank you sir..
Really great review, a pleasure to sit through and watch. Thank you
he turned the camera off when he put it up to his eye at 1:36 lol
Oh Yesss, for over 6 months I'm on KZread busted by reviews from the alpha9 to GFX 50s and this camera is definitely my choice, this is a top class review... Your very talented!!!!
Wow, such an impressive review. Smart, professional, and very honest.
Superb review. Thanks for all that hard work
Man, truly your review is the most honest review ive ever seen and its awesome. I think the X-H1 is the forbidden love.
Great to see a fantastic camera review, with nice editing and music choices, recorded in Hamburg, one if the most gorgeous cities in Germany.
What a brilliant review. A well put together and thoughtful film. Thank you.
love the music you guys always choose!
I just bought one of these this week..and I LOVE it! Everyone talks about it for video but I got it for photography. Reasons - 1. Ibis helps when shooting longer lenses in low light Eg. I can shoot my 90mm at 1/60 instead of 1/125 which can make the difference between iso 12800 and 6400 (note: I can go as low as 1/10 but since I shoot moving subjects that would create too much motion blur) 2. That grip!! I LOVE that grip! Yea you can add grips to Fuji’s other cameras but I really just adore the grip and it makes using larger lenses so much better! 3. The shutter mechanism is like you said-AMAZING! The smoothness of the shutter makes getting camera shake free images that much easier. That being said, now that the XT4 is out it offers more in a smaller package, BUT you can get the xh1 for 800 or less used, that’s amazing! The camera cost about the same as a a7iii when it came out! I know I’m gonna be snatching another one of these to replace my secondary xt2!

It's like considering the xt4 or the xh1+800$, it depends on what you need. Personally, i'd take the xh1+56 or 90mm over that xt4 body any day but not everyone is me
Amazing presentation! Loved your review.
Love your statement: "The camera that makes you want to go out and shoot is the camera for you." Totally agreed. :)
Super cool, fairly unbiased and well made review. I enjoyed the footage really much also. Nice city you live in! Like your personality also. Thank you. Greetings from Finland. :)

Super Review und klasse gemacht! Ich habe meine X-T2 verkauft und die X-H1 gekauft. Und neben meiner A7RIII habe ich mich bewusst für die X-H1 als weitere Kamera entschieden und nicht für die A7III. Die Gründe dafür hätte ich nicht besser beschreiben können, wie in diesem Beitrag! TOP!
Fantastic review, you really did a amazing job!
Your videos are of a high caliber and refreshing to watch. I was looking for a hybrid camera and almost bought the X-T2 based on the quality of the videos you have posted. I held off and got the X-H1 and I have to say my experience has been identical to yours. Great content, thank you.

Toll! Just an excellent review. Since My Leica M4P I have never loved a Camera as much as this xH1. Bravo.
The best XH1 review that I have seen. I confuse for a couple of week about using 2 systems (Sony n Fuji) and I already owned X-Pro2 and XT2. Planing to sell X-Pro2 + 1024 to A7III + 1635G for video. After watching your review, it blows my mind man. Now I made the decision to sell my rarely use X-Pro2 to XH1. This save my pocket !! I owned 6 Fuji lens and no need to waste the money for Sony Lens Thanks again for your good review.
Honest review The most informative I watched, fujifilm should listen well
That was a well-balanced review, highlighting the negatives and positives. Thumbs up!
this is a very well done vid with easily the dopest sounds

XF18-55 is the best kit lens in any system, I totally agree !
Very interesting and enjoyable review. Given the rumours of an imminent X-H2 release, I hope to see you do a review of this camera.
Good job! Amazing review, thanks a lot!
This is by far the definitive review of the X-H1 as it currently stands, and refreshingly honest about some of the issues. My take on it right now is I’d only use it if I owned and wanted to use MF lenses for video, as the AF has very severe issues; not just the inability to find focus, but the pulsing even when it does which would be a complete deal breaker on a bigger screen. I’m on the fence about this or a GH5, or an A7riii for hybrid use...
Enjoyed the review, thank you!
Thanks, the microphone test was very helpful.
Very useful review, I have just bought it, thanks!
Amazing Videos!... very informative and honest!!💯
thanks for the review dawg
Great review! I’m looking forward to my copy very soon, and can’t wait to compare it with my Sony A7R3 in the field.
You got a very nice review video! Thanks
Very good review in substance and in production value
Excellent review. Even if you don't like the Fuji, the review is very well done and gives a wealth of info and examples.
Great review! Honest, unbiased and beautiful production. I liked the use of Hendricks Gin and a lemon for the focus test. Reminds me of the James Bond Martini; 3 parts gin, 1 part Vodka, half part Lillet and a large strip of lemon peel - my favorite libation.
Great review. Thanks for sharing.
What an amazing review! You focus on details often left out by other reviewers, thank you!
Great review. Makes me want to go and get this camera.
Excellent review, thanks.

Bravo !, One of the best, most comprehensive and unbiased reviews of a camera i have ever watched ; and i did watch a lot -) Grüsse aus WIen
Very good to see your video! I have my video AF settings to AF Area, AF-C focus mode and +2 speed at DR100% and I'm consistently getting great results. AF-C makes the difference from my experience and is obviously not the default setting. To say this camera is great and is certainly an upgrade from the venerable XT-2. Slow motion videos with the 100-400mm with the TC 1.4x on are better than I would have ever expected. I'm at 840mm with just a monopod and with excellent results on stills and video - simply unbelievable.
Excellent review.
Bench mark production - High class visual and sound and that Nordic light - many thanks.
Thank you for the very detail video !!!
I will patiently wait for X-H2 whenever that will be I am rocking with X-T3 nowadays.
