Fujifilm X-H2S Autofocus Tracking vs X-T4, for Wildlife and Performance on Older XF Lenses (XF56mmF1.2 Included)

Share

The French channel Les Guides Fujifilm has published a video about the Fujifilm X-H2S autofocus performance under many different scenarios.

It’s a 40 minutes video where he tests:

  • X-H2S vs X-T4 eye/face tracking
  • X-H2S tracking a running dog
  • X-H2S tracking kids (running and on bicycle)
  • X-H2S for Wildlife
  • X-H2S at 40fps and 30fps tracking (dog and kids)
  • how good several Fujinon lenses work on X-H2S
  • low light stills tracking in a circus
  • low light video tracking in a circus

Lots of stuff, right?

You don’t have time right now to watch it all?

Well, for your convenience I’ve made a summary down below and I’ll also give you time stamps so that you can jump to the section that interests you most.

NOTE 1: when he scrolls very quickly through the images you see them unsharp. This happens because his computer is not rendering at full res. When he stops on an image it gets rendered and it becomes sharp.

NOTE 2: I speak four languages, but sadly French is not one of them (although I understand it a bit). In case any French FR-reader notices an error or wants to add something, feel free to let me know in the comments.

DEAL ALERT: Save up to $130 on Fujifilm Top Recommended CFexpress Type B Cards – Ends June 11

Share

We just shared an article about the officially top recommeded CFexpress TypeB cards by Fujifilm and we saw that while many cards will work fine, not all of them will unlock the full potential of your Fujifilm X-H2S.

In fact, there are some that can’t record 6K/4K, other can, but not in ProRes, other have limited burst duration.

Only these four cards Fujifilm has tested actually can do it all at its best: Delkin Black, ProGrade Cobalt 1700R, Lexar Gold and Lexar Diamond.

Well, I noticed that one of them is actually in offer until June 11:

Fujifilm Recommended CFexpress Type B Cards: Why These Four Cards are BEST and Which Ones You Should NOT Use

Share

With the release of the Fujifilm X-H2S and hence Fujifilm’s first digital camera to take CFexpress cards, Fujifilm has updated its list of officially recommended cards to store your files.

Now, all the cards listed below are recommended.

But attention, not all CFexpress Cards are made equal.

  • Some CFexpress Type B Cards can’t record 6K/4K
  • Some can record 6K/4K but not in ProRes
  • Some can record all video formats, but when used for bursts don’t last as long as others
  • Only 4 Card Models can do it all and can do it best

Also, CFexpress Cards not listed here are not properly tested by Fujifilm. This means they could perform very well, too. But they could also have a negative impact on the performance of the camera (or even don’t work with certain features).

This is important to know, as I have already seen reviewers using the Pergear CFExpress Type B card in their X-H2S first looks. Whatever those reviewers say in terms of performance, please take it with a grain of salt, as they use cards that are not on Fuji’s list.

If you treat yourself with a Fujifilm X-H2s, please stick to the recommended CFexpress Type B cards (and also UHS-II cards) listed below.

Out of all the cards mentioned above, the four cards without any compromise in performance are:

UPDATE: IMX671 is NOT the Sensor of Fujifilm X-H2S

Share

Back on May 31, an anonymous source send me the sensor sheet for the a new IMX671 sensor by Sony.

I was skeptical, and considering our approach to be as accurate as possible, I decided not to share it. I also received the one for the Fujifilm X-H2, and also that one, I did not share it.

Sharing probably fake stuff just for clicks is not what we do here on FujiRumors.

But I guess once the anonymous source noticed FujiRumors would not be tricked to publish it, it started sending that file to several websites, who, hungry for clicks, all published it giving it for granted that this is the Fujifilm X-H2S sensor sheet.

At that point, I had to publish it too, but more because I wanted to warn you that I am very skeptical about it.

So I did what FujiRumors does best: I verified!

Well, I can now say with 110% certainty that the IMX671 is NOT the sensor for the Fujifilm X-H2S and also the other sensor sheet I’ve received, which the anonymous contact said it’s for X-H2, is 110% not for X-H2.

In fact, I don’t know if they even exist, or they are just made up. Or they are just sensor for other cameras (maybe Sony, certainly not Fuji).

But what I can tell you for sure, it’s that none of them is for Fujifilm X-H2S or Fujifilm X-H2.

In a future not all too distant I will let you know the IMX definition for both sensors in a way you’ll see with your own eyes that this was just a fake.

OUR COMMITMENT TO OUR READERS:

In these years I have seen all possible fakes. Websites who claim the X-H line had been axed (but now we got even two of them!!), websites spreading rumors about nonsense lenses like the Fujinon GF56mmF5.6 and much more.

The reason why this happens is simple: they want your attention, your time and your money. And every way to achieve that is legit in their eyes. Yes, they know they fool you, but they don’t care, as long as it brings them profit. The only rumors they get right, are the ones they copy from FujiRumors (without quote of course).

But here on FujiRumors we don’t share fake rumors as we don’t take this kind of shortcut to get your attention and increase traffic.

Our commitment to you: we want to respect your time! And if you honor us with your time, then we want to deserve it by working hard and good, day after day, article after article.

I know that this is the hard way to success, as spreading sensational fake rumors would be a guarantee for traffic (and you can always talk yourself out of it by saying “hey, it’s a rumor, doesn’t have to be accurate”). But that’s not who we are. I just have too much respect for you and your time.
