Fujifilm X-H1 Review by ePhotoZine: “Improved Image Quality over Fujifilm X-T2. Highly Recommended”

Fujifilm X-H1 Review

ePhotoZine just published their full Fujifilm X-H1 review, and they confirm what we already noticed, when we pixel peeped in the imaging-resource X-H1 lab test: image quality is improved over the Fujifilm X-T2, due to “slightly better noise performance at high ISO speeds“.

Another reason for the “improved” IQ is IBIS. Over at our X-H facebook group, there are really many people very happy about the new life their OIS-less lenses like the XF90mmF2 got thanks to IBIS. They shoot at 1/4 shutters speeds with the XF 90mm, where in the normally they would use 1/100 or even higher. Overall they now have a lot more keepers than before.

They end up highly recommending the Fujifilm X-H1, because “if you want to be able to create high-quality looking video as well as shoot impressive still photos, then the Fujifilm X-H1 provides the best of both worlds.”

Here are the Pros and Cons… read the full review at ePhotoZine here.

  • PROS
  • In-camera image stabilisation
  • Improved High ISO performance
  • Excellent colour reproduction
  • Numerous film simulation modes
  • High resolution electronic viewfinder
  • 3inch multi-angle tilting touch-screen
  • Rapid focus
  • CONS
  • 310 shot battery life (without battery grip)
  • Battery grip required for headphone socket
  • Size may be too large for some

Laowa

There is definitely grabbing the attention of the Fujifilm world lately, not only thanks to the launch of the Laowa 9mmF2.8 Zero-D (hands on report here).

Also Fujifilm GFX can look forward to the Laowa Magic Format Converter, which allows you to adapte your Canon and Nikon full frame lenses onto the Fujifilm GFX without any vignetting.

Fujifilm X-H1 IBIS Test, Bugs Update, and More

The Photography Team Youtube – Fuji X-H1 IBIS Test compared to Fujifilm X-T2 – 90mm Lens

Fujifilm X-H1 Roundup

We already reported yesterday about the AUTO ISO bug and about the occasional lock-ups. And we also recommended you to use only Fujifilm approved SD-cards to avoid your camera to freeze, as well as using the NP-W126S batteries.

So, if you want to read more, and see the full list of Fujifilm recommended SD-card, read yesterday’s article here.

Now a new video showed up, showing how the camera locks up when using E-Front curtain shutter. We do not know if the tester has a “Fuji approved” SD-card. But I thought to share it anyway, so that you guys can try to duplicate it. You’ll find the video down below, but first feedback is that issue can NOT be duplicated by others.

My personal opinion is that the E-front fail is due to a faulty sample.

Also in this roundup, some IBIS tests, comparisons to Panasonic and more.

I will give you the link down below, and all the youtube videos will be also embedded in the article after the links.

Not only Steelsring and Fringer… also Kipon will be offering its own Canon EF to Fujifilm X smart adapter soon.

We already reported about them here, and there will be several options:

  • EF-FX AF – 298USD (optically improved. New production from better optic supplier)
  • Baveyes EF-FX AF 0.7x – 428USD (focal reducer, or “speedbooster”)
  • EF-GFX AF – 298USD

Now Cinema5D met the Kipon guys at the CP+, and they present the new smart adapters by Kipon. You can see the video here. They say the Canon EF to Fuji X smart adapters will start shipping at the end of March/beginning of April

Especially the “speedbooster” version sounds very interesting.

Here is an overview of the current or soon to be available smart adapters for Fujifilm
