Fujifilm X-H2S Removal from Some Stores Fuels Speculations about Fujifilm X-H3S

Is this the end for the Fujifilm X-H2S?

Well, it might be way to early to claim that, but we take note that US store Moment removed the Fujifilm X-H2S from their store.

The Fujifilm X-H2S is expected to be available at BHphoto in 6-10 weeks, whereas it is in stock at Amazon US here and Adorama here.

So, FR-readers, who made me notice the missing X-H2S on Moment asked me: is the Fujifilm X-H3S about to come?

Well, that’s a good question and I guess I better try to find the answer to it as soon as possible.

For now all I know is that 2026 will be indeed the year in which Fujifilm will start upgrading their cameras to the 6th generation platfrom.

The Fujifilm X-H2S was the first 5th generation camera in Fuji’s lineup, so it is not totally impossible that it will be again the Fujifilm X-H-S line that will mark the beginning of the new era. But again: I don’t have any rumors so far.

Fujifilm X-H2S (7.10) vs Sony A6700 Autofocus Video Comparison

Fujifilm has released the new firmware for X-H2S, X-H2 and GFX100II. We have covered it already in earlier articles:

And while they all agree it is workable again, FujiRumors has shared also two videos of Edvard, which show in which areas there are still improvements to be done. Especially his findings about the X-T3 should be taken into consideration by Fujifilm. But I refer you to this article.

Now we have, for the first time, a direct side by side comparison between Fujifilm X-H2S with firmware 7.10 vs the Sony A6700.

It has been made by Sony and Fujifilm shooter photorabz using the Sigma 16mmF1.4 APS-C lens as as well as the Brightin Star 50mm F1.4 (he owns both versions, one of E mount and one for X mount).

He also tested the X-H2S with the Viltrox 75mmF1.2 outside for a shoot (stills and video) in real world conditions, where the autofocus performed much better than with firmware 7.00.

Sony A6700 vs Fujifilm X-H2S head to head:

the results are surprisingly good for Fujifilm. I really loved how the autofocus on the Fuji worked during this comparison. Sony cameras have one of the best autofocus systems out there, but now the Fujifilm is not bad all. This comparison test made me more confident to take the Fujifilm again for professional work.

Take this as one more of the many feedbacks we got in these days.

My position remains the same: it’s true that it is workable again and you can go back to work confidently again with Fujfilm gear, but it is also true that the work is not yet finished and there is room for further improvements, which is why in my previous coverage I highlighted in the headline as well as in the intro the findings that Edvard made, which I think are valuable feedback for Fujifilm.

FINALLY: New Autofocus Firmware and New Features Released for Fujifilm X-H2, X-H2S, and GFX100 II

Fujifilm has finally released the long promised autofocus update for the Fujifilm X-H2, X-H2S and GFX100II. Also new features have been added and bugs fixed.

No firmware update for X-T5 & Co yet, but Fujifilm has also promised that one to come within 2024. So do not panic. It’s coming, too according to official Fujifilm statements.

Feel free to let us know in the comments what your impressions are.
