Fujifilm X-H1 Review by Chris & Jordan at DPReview (former TCSTV). Did You Know You Can Adjust the Shutter Button to 3 Different Strength Levels?

Fujifilm X-H1 Review

You probably all know at this time, that Chris and Jordan have left TheCameraStoreTV and are now part of the DPReview team.

They now released their Fujifilm X-H1 review at the dpreivew youtube channel, “the best mismarketed camera out there” according to Chris.

Here are some highlights:

FujiRumors is everywhere: Facebook, RSS-feed, Instagram, Youtube and Twitter

STILLS

  • large professional looking body, but lighter than DSLR’s
  • Fujifilm gives us lots of different body choices (X-Pro2, X-T20, X-T2, X-E3 etc…)
  • very weather sealed
  • one of the best EVF’s they have ever used. Blows away the X-T2 viewfinder
  • not great battery life
  • in very low light with critical conditions, AF is doable, but not perfect (50% shots in focus)
  • touch AF is laggy, better use the joystick
  • eye AF not as good as Sony
  • it is important to set the right AF custom mode to make the best out of the AF system
  • Handles flare better than older cameras
  • Chris loves the quiet mechanical shutter

VIDEO

  • Great hybrid camera
  • Eterna is great for video, Jordan’s favorite profile for videos
  • fantastic EVF, no need to punch in to check focus
  • touch silent interface for video recording. All operates from touch screen and keeps settings separated from stills. Great idea. But touch screen control can be cumbersome and laggy
  • linear focussing with focus by wire lenses is an enormously important feature
  • camera never overheats. But 15 minutes recording limit without battery grip
  • exposure changes in 1/3 stop… should be smoother
  • IBIS quite effective

DID YOU KNOW?

  • Chris got used to the new shutter button and likes it. But if it is too soft for your taste, Chris says you can send it in to Fujifilm and they will adjust it to one of the three different strengths levels you prefer. Here on FujiRumors we have already reported about this possibility, but it’s a good reminder in case you have missed it.

Make sure to check out the whole video at dpreview youtube here.

I am trying to catch up with all the links you guys send me and you ask me to be featured on FujiRumors. I will feature you all, but given the huge demand, it might take some time before I can share you all. Thanks for your patience :)

National Geographic Photographers Shoot Fujifilm GFX 50S :: Hollywood Loves Fujifilm :: Famous Fujifilm X Shooters & More

Fujifilm Hall of Fame

As you might or might not know, 1 or 2 times a year, here on FujiRumors we curate a little column about famous X-shooters or Fujifilm cameras appearing in movies. The best way to check out the full coverage, is to head over to our fuji-x-forum famous X-shooter collection.

Today we would like to add a few more to the list.

We start with National Geographic photographer Corey Arnold. He gets his job done using the Fujifilm GFX 50S, as you can see in this video for a KIA ad [video embedded at the top of this blog post].

Regarding the “famous X shooters“, we have to add Grey’s Anatomy star Patrick Dempsey, who shoots a Fujifilm X-Pro2 (more on facebook here and image below). And also top UFC fighter (former #1) Joanna Jedrzejczyk shoots Fujifilm [image below]

Also, Fujifilm made it again in various movies, not only in front of the screen, but they are also used to shoot official BTS images in Hollywood blockbusters (as it already happened with the Dunkirk movie).

See all the details down below.

TIPA Awards 2018: Fujifilm Left (Almost) Empty-Handed. Only Instax SQ10 Gets Awarded

In the last years, Fujifilm often won quite some of awards at the TIPA awards.

  • 2017: Fujifilm wins 5 awards
  • 2016: Fujifilm wins 3 awards
  • 2015: Fujifilm wins 3 awards
  • 2014: Fujifilm wins 2 awards
  • 2013: Fujfiilm wins 3 awards

Well, this year is the worst for Fujifilm, since the “X-series era“. They won 1 award only, and it goes to the Instax Square SQ10 for the “Best Design“.

So the Fujfiilm X-H1 and Fujifilm X-E3 were not good enought to make it into the TIPA ranking. Let’s hope the upcoming Fujifilm X-T3 and Fujifilm GFX 50R will change it next year.

I am surprised, though, that not even one of the astonishing Fujinon lenses has made it into the list. For example, while the winner of the best mirrorless prime lens, the Samyang AF 35mm F2.8 FE, is surely a fine lens, I can’t see it being superior to the equivalent Fujinon GF 45mm F2.8.

So despite TIPA creating overall 40 categories, there is not much love for Fujifilm this year.

Here are all the winners:
