[TUTORIAL] DO THIS FIRST! How-to set-up your 7 CUSTOM SETTINGS on the FUJIFILM X-H2s
Fujifilm completely revamped the ergonomics of the X-H2s compared to the tactile style of the previous X-Series flagship cameras. Say goodbye to the ISO and Shutter Speed dials you are used to and say hello to 7 Custom Settings... Whether you like it or not, now that the usual dials are gone you need to take the time to set-up your Custom Settings the way that suits your shooting style if you don't want to have to delve into the menus every time you photograph/film something different! Problem: Fujifilm does not explain anywhere in the user manual how to do that... Don't worry, I got you covered! This might be a longer tutorial than what the KZread algrorithm likes to see, but I go through various settings both in Picture mode and Video mode to cover all sorts of topics. So strap in and make sure you invest in these early steps to get the most out of your camera.

Thank you so much for such a great and helpful video! Very generous. No reason for the English in the video. Your English is excellent and very easy to understand.
Wow, the absolute best description on how to set up custom settings. First rate. Thank you!

You're not Grumpy
Just got my X-H2s and I love the ergonomics. The custom setting is awesome and thank you very much for this very informative tutorial.
A heartfelt thankyou! I've scratched my head several times looking at Fuji's instructions for using custom settings. I knew they must be useful! I'm guessing you spent hours working all this out, then planning how to explain it (and in English too!).
Everyone has a their own preference on how to set up your C1-C7 dials and that's good. Keep in mind that you can set one of your camera buttons or toggles to instantly return to C1. To my knowledge, you can't do that for any of the other custom settings C2-C7. Therefore I made C1 my most often used setting ... a normal photo setting in my case but it may be different for you. I made it the button on the front of the camera beside the lens, just above the lens removal button. Then I can switch to C1 instantly if I want to capture a photo and not lose the moment. I didn't set C1 to a video setting as the video record button instantly records with your last video setting. That may not be perfect for video but at least I will get something. Between the two I can get a photo or video clip instantly ... and worry about the best Custom function for the shot later ... but at least I won't lose the moment entirely.

Many thanks for the hint!
Great explanation of a complex subject.
Thank you so much, this was really helpful for me.
Great tutorial. Using EDIT/CHECK was a game-changer for me. Allows you to save each setting as go along.
A very informative and useful tutorial. Thank you!
Thank you for the BKT settings, i went from x-t1 to this and the learning curve was overwhelming 7:18
Thanks! this video helped me a lot!
Thanks a lot. Best tutorial ever. 👌 I'm now able to configure the presets of my X-H2
Thanks a lot. You spared me from reading that boring user manual
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial! It helped me to understand those custom setting wheels, which I hated at first, but now start to really like! :)
This is the loudest video on yt 😅 good video, thanks 👍🏼
Just got the x-h2s, thanks for the custom dial set-up. Big help.
Help needed please! The edited changes for the photo settings prompt the red icon and pressing Q saved the changes. However in the Video setting, when I made a change there was no red icon prompting me to press the Q button, nor did the changes stay when I saved the changes. I am in "edit/save".
The best, clearest settings video I have ever seen!!! Now to apply it to my X-H2. THANK YOU!!!
Nice video, thanks. Now a question, can you setup C1, C2 in such a way to have AF-ON button for focussing in C1 and say Shutter button AF in C2?
Great video - thank you! Wouldn’t it be cool if the custom name could be displayed somewhere when a custom mode is selected?
Thank You Thank You Thank You. This video helped me so so much. Not the best hybrid shooter but now iv set my 7 custom settings I feel more confident with doing some video. Excellent video. 👍👍👍👍👍 Did I say Thanks 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks a lot a very good, clear, going in deep tutorial
Thank you for the video. Great tutorial and a good explanation.
Thank you for this. Very well explaned
Thank you! This is a perfect video, brilliantly explained. 👍👍👏👏
Thank you for this video! It helps me very to setup my custom modes👍👍👍
A really needed video so start from scratch. I will use it for sure as I will have the camera for 3 days to make my decision buy or skip. One question: how to go back to your “original”C1 setup without having to shut down the camera?

Great question. Per manual: I think you have to press Reset to go back to original settings, or press Save to keep your changes.I tried to C & P but apparently that’s not allowed. I’m going to start setting mine up now. Great video
Thanks for a Great video, and one that is very informative and easy to follow.
Bonjour je parle en francais en peu. J'achete en Fuji X-H2. I am trying to learn french. I almost went with the X-H2s, but I realized that its geared towards sports photographer.
Hi, thanks for the nice video. Had a question but solved it. Keep up the good work. Regards Han
1:16 true! I own a GH6 and it is soooo hard getting the the easiest to configure cam to this.
superb explanation, thanks very much from a new user
Thank you very much for your help🙏
Would it be useful to actually see the custom name you made for each C in the display?
Excellent Tutorial and hand holding for most tough task of setting up Custom settings. I have two doubts please 1. Why Aperture is set to F2.0 in all custom settings from C! to C3 as well as in Video, if I remember correctly. 2. Suppose if I want to should wihout using C1 to C5, can I do? Shoud I have to go to blank C6 or C7 to shoot in Shutter prority or in P mode. Thanks
Great video! Tks, bro! 👊🏼🙏🏼
18:17 Ah, yes that explains it. Thanks. I was wondering why it appeared that way. (just got my X-H2)
where i can put option of the green line on the screeen when i shoot
Great video! What settings do you have for C6 and C7?
I've been working on my custom dials. Your video showed me a lot that it can do that I wasn't aware of even with my tinkering ... such as aperture value or saving by pressing Q. Thanks! (Maybe I should read the manual.)
Changes were not saved correctly, each time I went back to check the camera changed all the setting. I did save after each change but it keeps going to manual, and everything else changes .
Bonjour. Merci pour cette vidéo. Elle n'existe pas en français? Votre petit accent ne trompe pas ! 😉
With bracketing +-5, does it not make 11 total photos?
Anyone run into an issue where you can't save any of the changes you made to the 7 custom settings?
Can you scroll the value of ISO or other options with the front or back command dial after pressing the respective assigned button?
When setting custom mode for stills, why screen setup menu is disabled? I want exposure/WB simulation setting to be saved in custom settings bank.. That setting is under "Screen set-up"... Is this a bug or what?
I can't seem to save any changes that I make when I'm setting up my custom modes. There's no red dot and no way to save anything. It does this when auto update custom setting or enabled and disabled. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? The q button is also greyed out.
It doesn’t show the custom name when switching modes?
супер Большое спасибо. 🤝
Can anyone confirm this is how the camera should work for me? If I have the 'auto update custom setting' enabled, it will save any settings I change as I switch between the different custom modes. But if I take the battery out and put it back in again (or change the battery, lol), the custom settings will reset to the settings that I originally saved. This is how both my XH2s and XH2 work, is this the same for everyone else?

Mine doesn't. set autosave on. changed to C5, changed to classic chrome. turned off/on, still classic chrome. Pulled battery and put back, turned on, still classic chrome. Did not revert to ProNegHigh.
I don’t want to program a computer. I want to decide. Don’t call us stupid.
