Loved the content on this one Fred, good comparison. The recent price drop made me decide to go for the X-H1 mainly because of the body style and the fact that it's Made in Japan. I was already familiar with the performance and it performs better then my X-Pro2, recently a friend of mine took my X-H1 to a concert and shot some low light images and they turned out really great! Keep up the good work and a review of Capture One sounds good!

I'm a Fuji lover and I actually just started my own channel and I film all of it with my XH1. Had a quick suggestion, you can take it with a grain of salt, have you ever thought of doing separate shots to accompany this video, adding some close-ups (insert shots) of the camera and dials, etc rather than putting the product to the camera each time and relying on the autofocus. I believe insert shots tell a cleaner story and makes videos more dynamic rather than a stagnant tripod shot. Also, it's easy to edit because you don't need to add audio to them, just leak your voice over. Overall, love your enthusiasm you have for your gear, and weirdly, at times I just like to see just solo shots of the gear, because lets face it...Fujifilm makes beautiful cameras haha. Great work, love your stuff Fred.

I can confirm your observations about capture One.I recently purchased Capture one fujifilm pro. When i import RAF files across editors, capture one straight out of the gate recognizes sharpness and significantly reduces noise. It also has the truest colours of fuji film simulations. By comparison I only use On1 raw or lightroom for jpegs now. Capture One, in my opinion is the superior editor for handling Fuji files. (To the degree that even images at 6400 iso appear impressively clean. (I suspect L.R and On1 perform some form of pixel rendering that aggressively interprets RAF data and as result alters colour significantly and emphasizes noise. The difference is chalk and cheese with how well C1 handles fuji files. Even overlaying LUT's on fuji images in L.R and On1 look significantly different and oddly bright gamma levels in comparison to C1. I still use other editors for specific tasks, but C1 have done a solid job with their fujifilm pro release.)

AF is pretty good on the H1, but it’s blazing fast and covers 100% of the frame on the T3!

I've been using the Pro2 and T2 a few years since released before purchased my H1. In my opinion, H1 is just the perfect size. It is not too small (T series is considered a bit too small to comfortably use it in extended time) and not too big. The dials and buttons are much better quality and you can tell they did more homework for H series. I'd say if you shoot once a while and shoot casually, T series is fine. But for serious photography, H series all the way. And those who think H series is too big for mirrorless, they can always go for Playstation A7 series..

Nice video Great content on your channel New supporter

I'm loving my XH-1 too, although I haven't tried the X-T3 I do still have my old X-T2. I have large hands too and love the ergonomics of the X-H1 - especially the feather touch shutter release button and the silky quiet shutter mechanism. I shoot stills rather than video but appreciate the IBIS with my non-OIS lenses, especially in lower light situations. I’m going to wait for the XH-2. If it includes the same sensor, processor and AF system as the X-T3 (or better) and adds the flip-around capability to the vari-angle screen then it should be my perfect camera. It is worth mentioning that I have dropped my XH-1 hard, twice (once to three steps of the stone stairway in a castle and once more to the granite cobbled street in Prague). Although I damaged a lens (bent zoom barrel) on the castle stairs the X-H1 body survived without any issues (some dinks in the mag-alloy case) but nothing that affects the operation or functionality of the camera. A brick. When you say it is heavy and not so good for travel… the robustness is a pro and I think it could survive harsh outdoor treatment along with the very best of them. Cheers for the comparison, very informative, thanks!

Happy 2019, Fred! Coming from an X-Pro2 to the X-T3, I certainly agree that the new senor and engine yield sharper, more detailed images, particularly at Base ISO, in good light, and when using a solid tripod! As I don't print larger than 20"x30", to mitigate the relatively small sensor size (compared to FF or MF) when shooting products, I employ focus-stacking, using the camera plus the ultra-sharp Fujinon 80mm f/2.8 Macro lens, on a sturdy tripod. When combining up to about 65 images in post, I can rival FF and possibly approach medium format in terms of sharpness and detail retention. As I don't shoot video, and always use a tripod for maximum sharpness, the X-H1 with IBIS didn't interest me, although I do like the grip and beefier lens mount! Why Fuji didn't keep at least the better lens mount in the X-T3 going forward, is beyond me! Thanks, and enjoy photography!

If you're doing talking head stuff, either will be fine except you need grip on xh1 to monitor audio. You need a gimbal for either camera if you're making any cinematic clips as the IBIS in the xh1 isn't good enough for handheld walking but it is good enough for some handheld panning with firmware 2.0.

I can definitely say that the gap between APSC and FF has closed in the recent years. You will still usually get slightly more dynamic range, better low light performance, and shallower depth of field, but given the quality of crop these days, it becomes a personal decision. In the end people don’t look at photos saying “what a great full frame shot” if the image/story is good, it doesn’t matter the tool you used to capture it. Cheers!

I'll be having my first fuji camera. With the bargain currently on XH-1+VBP (around $1000) would you recommend me to get one, or should i just be patient, buy an X-T100 bundled with 35 f2 & 50 f2, and swap the body when X-H2 is out?

All those things are true, that's why it's a tricky choice. My recommendation would be to wait for an X-H2 with IBIS and the AF of the X-T3. But if you can't wait and need extra stabilization, I would go with the X-H1. If you need absolute best image quality and fastest AF AND ready to live with shakier footage, then the T3!

You can’t go wrong with either or. If IBIS is a must, than your choice is simple: X-H1. The AF is good enough and the grip is so comfortable. You will need a lot of batteries though. You will find more robust video features and codec on the X-T3 but your are foregoing IBIS. The X-T4 really addresses both, but I understand it is more expansive.

The Xpro2 which was released 2016 and its almost the same price now :D. I am not sure a XH2 will arrive soon because of the bad selling.

I also love my X-H1. I wanted it so badly I bought it when it came out for $1800 body only. The shutter and IBIS are great, but I feel raped as a loyal customer who likes to buy the newest model as soon as it comes out. Why? You can now - just 10 months later - get an X-H1 + the battery grip with extra batteries for $1299. Might be great for the retailers to clear their inventory of cameras that aren’t selling but not good for me or you when trying to resell it and I don’t think it’s too good for the brand in general. When they come out with an X-H2 my $1800 investment will be worth about $400 on a trade-in. NOT COOL! Seems like a panic sell and gives the impression the thing was only worth $1299 from day one. Why buy a Fuji when they come out? Wait 10 months for them to price discover in the market and save $1000 (including the battery grip.). Great camera, great engineering, great design, really shitty marketing that hurts the owners with resale and just making one feel slightly screwed.

I saw the XH1 at it’s launch party in Vancouver and it was’t the cards for me then... but buying it now looks good. The competition is so steep for all the brands it’s likely that “newer and better” is well on the way. I’d say just having the chance to use the XH1 for as long as you have before the price drop you have kind of had time to recoup your premium purchase price by simply getting familiar with it and perhaps achieving an intuitive sense of operation, something only hands-on operation can do. The greatest camera that will ever be made will be junk if it’s not used by someone who is determined to make it work for them.

Why would you need to get the X-H2 as soon as it comes out? Will it make your X-H1 any less capable? Don't screw yourself by being a mindless consumer zombie. You bought a great camera that is made tough for pro use and can keep it for a long time. If you like to trade up just stay one generation behind and you can trade up for a few hundred dollars. The reason for the big drop in MSRP is the new sensor in the X-T3 makes the X-H1 look a generation behind instead of the flagship that it is. That and bad reviews by people that did not know how to use the camera probably dropped sales to nothing in November. They should have introdued them together with the same sensor and positioned the IBIS camera as the premium product.
