lets start to spread this around all Fuji Influencers... Wouldn't a XT5s be amazing? 26mp Sensor of the XH2 with the same EVF Resolution, Display and improved Joystick on XT5 Body, 4K60 and some speed benefits of the stacked sensor (no need for 40fps)
With the technology available today I would not consider a new camera that doesn't feature a stacked sensor. The high number of pixels doesn't really matter unless you do a specialized work that requires big detailed prints.
FYI - off-topic story of Fuji robustness: Yesterday, I accidently elbow-knocked the -T5 off a countertop onto a slate floor, a drop of 3 feet. The camera, plus attached 16-80 xf F4 lens, made a thump loud enough to be heard two floors down. Subsequent shots of the same subjects taken before the drop are, as far as I can tell, identical in focus and sharpness. I admit I'm not at all careful with my photo gear when biking-hiking; my Nikon experience suffered with minor, and, one major repair (broken buttons; lens needed factory alignment). Remarkably, the last five years of Fuji X-system ownership has been rock solid even with my heavy-handed ineptitude.
Already gotten the X-T5. the XH2 body is as heavy as my a7iv, hence going for X-T5 is a no-brainer to me on weight//feature/performance comparison vs XH2.
Coming from the XT-20, X100V and X-Pro3, my heart was set on the XT-5. I just love the whole retro styling with the buttons on top. But when I saw the XH-2, and the flip screen and better EVF, but with the PSAM ;-) I thought about it, I always used the command dials for iso and shutter speed So I bought the XH-2. The inability to add iso to a custom button is a bit annoying, but using auto iso with manual mode/aperture priority gives me more freedom to compose. I would have been just as happy with the XT-5 I am sure, but I'll stick with this gem for now 🙂
Very good video. Thank you. I shoot with four bodies so the thought of needing to buy a handful of CF express cards just makes me consider the XT5. I appreciate the points you made. I may try the XT5 when it’s back in stock.
@Iamtongue Being a one man crew, and I can't change lenses during a job due to very dusty conditions I need to have three bodies each with a different focal length prime, and one with a ZOOM. The three with primes have the Rokinon Cine lenses. Currently shooting with the Panasonic S5, but I am intrigued by the FUJI 40mpx sensor. I was shooting with the XT4 and the reason I left Fuji is the jerky IBIS when shooting video.
I am learning about photography and videography, pretty much a beginner. But I want to invest in a pro camera and I am so torn between these XT5 and the XH2. I am a little bit more into video so I should go for the XH2 but the classic design of the XT5 is so freaking sexy! I don't need 8K but then again, that could be future-proofing my purchase down the line. If only I was a rich person and could buy the two right off the bat! 😂
Hahah if only! 😅 so for a few hundred bucks more I would say get the xh2 better screen and grip…screen flips out for video shooters… or the XH2s is where you want to be if you want video… 8k means nothing..
I ordered the XH2 like a week before the xt5 was announced. Made me sad. When I got the XH2 i had a defective unit where the SD card slot wouldnt read so I sent it back. It took them a month to get a new one in stock and I contemplated just saying "send me one them XT5s instead" but.... coming from the xt30... I loved the flippy screen of my broken XH2 lol
I just jumped back into photo land and jumped in with the x-s10 and the 18-135 xf that i got used. I love the little guy! But honestly wish i would have fought the "Gear Acquisition Demon" and did a bit more used market surfing. There are so many good deals out there for such great cameras and even full kits! Picked up a mint x-t10 just because i felt like i was missing out on that fuji look with the S10 😅 it even had the xf 18-55 for like 500$ all together! And i love it! Definitelyyy worth shopping around
XH2S all the way. You won't see much difference in MP between them. In low light, the noise on the 40mp h2 and t5 is present for sure. Keep that in mind, maybe carry a flash if you go that route. IMO 40mp is pushing it on the APSC sensor. Sure phones have more with less but they are all software. really looking forward to the next 12-36 months of cameras coming. Lot's of "AI" and software implementations to further the distance in performance from your smartphone. Point is, the XH2s is really comparable in crop to it's 40 mp counterpart and waaay faster. If you need any noise reduction at all on the photos of the 40mp where you potentially wouldn't on the the "s" then the S may even be sharper in crop. Sensor development has been stagnant for the last decade. XH2S, just my thoughts. I have both for what it's worth.
@Iamtongue I just traded my XT4 for the XH2. I do mostly landscape, events, and people. I may or may not go the XH2S in the future, but who knows maybe they will go higher megapixels and stacked sensor the next iteration. At any rate I got the 16 80mm F4 lens combination, Viltrox 13mm 1.4 lens, and the 18 55. Would you keep the 18 55mm or sell for a different lens like a 70-300mm Telephoto.
@Leaner Stronger Bodies The 1st thing that I noticed was how fast the eye detection was over my XT4. I like how the phone app downloaded newer pictures right away to an album when you turn the camera off. I also like how fast the XH2 links up with the Fuji app vs. the XT4. I will see if this happens with the new rig that I built with an AMD 5950X. I just got it from B&H in Manhattan Sunday, and I have yet to give it a run. I bought the XH2 with the 16 80mm f4 combo as a kit lens purchase, which seems to not be too bad in low light. I didn't want to wait for the body to arrive during the week of the 11th, so I bought the combination 16 80mm kit lens for 500.00 more. Since the 16 80 is selling for 599.00 to 799.00, I figured why not. Tomorrow, I will have at it shooting landscape pictures in the Poconos, and then back to NYC, Bear Mountains, and Hudson Valley for landscape pictures. I love the build quality, ladies and gentlemen.....feels good in the hands, that grip is better than the XT4. LOVING the EVF AS WELL.
X-T5 for the tilt screen and retro styling, but the X-H2 is definitely worth the extra $300. They should've given the X-T5 the newer EVF and oversampled 6.2k. 😛
Fuji should have included an optional battery grip for the X-T5. This is the first X-T camera that does NOT offer this option. If you shoot with the Fuji 80mm, 90mm, or any of the Fuji telephoto zooms you will wish you had a battery grip for over all handling & balance.🙁
I'm looking either between the xt5 or the xh2 because it's only a couple hundred dollars more, I trying to think if it's worth the upgrade. But it'll depend on how much money I save after Christmas. Thanks again Tongue 👅
I picked the XT5 over the XH2 because coming from ex XT3/4 user, I love the analog dials, plus I don’t do video at all. I prefer the tilt screen over the flip screen for myself. I do wish the EVF will share the same as the XH2 but not really a deal breaker. The new autofocus algorithm alone justified the upgrade from the XT3/4 for me. I am surprised with the added mp, the high iso performance didn’t take a hit at all and it seems even cleaner with less color noise when compare to the 26mp sensor.
I came from Sony, and the fully articulating screen is great for video, but using it effectively with photography, drove me nuts. So, I have the XH2s for video, and I went for the XT5 for photography (even though they can both work across photo and video). The flippy screen for video on the XH2s, sweet, and the normal tilt screen on the XT5 is perfect for my needs.
@@whatthefitt It works, but for me, having to flip it out and turn it around, and then having it sticking out the side is just extra steps not needed. I shoot a lot of high end kids parties and kids are never still, so the less steps folding things out and back in again has made a big difference for me. It all comes down to what you shoot! Same applies for my video work, I love the flippy screen.
I am so torn which ones to take and honestly the new canon and sony are also worth considering. I didn’t have this problem when i bought the xt3. It’s such a shame Fuji didn’t make an xt5 with the specs of the h2. The whole thing makes me want to study other brands as well. Until a decision is made i will stay with my lovely xt3.
@@Iamtongue I’m looking into these two and unfortunately even though I’m a fuji fan i need a camera that doesn’t compromise. Thanks for your content i subscribed to you right away 👍
A7R5 - this is basically a X-H3 of the future made available today but twice the price. I'm switching to this after being Fuji user since X-T1. That 4-axis tilt/flip screen is awesome.
I'm stuck without either. I was really waiting for a camera that could do both 8K30 and 4K120. But even then, I would have wanted the traditional controls. So I'm going to buy a Z9 instead. Instead of 26MP stacked and 40MP non-stacked they should have done a 35-36MP stacked only and had only an X-T5 and an X-H2 that both were stacked with the same features but different controls and grips. The X-T5 would naturally be "less for video" by simply overheating.
Buffer of the XT-5 is smaller. Less than two seconds uncompressed raw continuous shooting. See Gordon Laing's review of the XT-5. I am not sure about the noise for stills for the XT-5 and X-H2 40 MP vs the X-H2S's 25 MP.
Hi Thongue, I enjoy your videos thank's for making them. What I would like is a comparison between the X-S10 and one of the 2 cameras with a 40mpix sensor (Preferably the X-T5 because it's lighter). The question I have is about image quality, maybe the 26 Mpix sensor is in fact better in terms of character than the new 40mpix.
they look the same in terms of image quality.. XT5 sensor just gives you a bit better colour and better dynamic range, but other than that. It's the same
For a beginner (hoping to gain some proffesional work eventually) portrait and food photographer that also likes to take landscapes and make the odd video. Also likes to travel. Would you go xt5 or xh2?
So i have a question im looking at these and wondering what is the most versatile camera im hoping to shoot pictures allot and shoot cars and whatever looks cool and take it on trips
I’m thinking to buy XS20 for videography point of view but I’m confuse to spend more and take XT5 or Fix with XS20 for long term use for 5 to 8 years. I saw your all videos but still confuse i need your consent Which one would you suggest for me.
@@Iamtongue I see what you mean, and I've heard they're dragging their heels on releasing an xt50 to avoid eating into xs10 sales. I hope that's not the case though, I have an xt20 and I love it. I was hoping for that + improved video :S
Good and helpful video before making a purchase. What are the pros and cons when having to choose between the XT’s and the XH’s because of the different memory cards, is it worth the extra cost of the CF vs the SD ones and a new card reader and maybe more file storage capacity. Or should I just keep my X-T4 and stop asking questions🤣
Haha honestly If you have the xt4 you’re good. Image quality looks relatively the same. The reason why I would get the xt5 is if you need the autofocus. You definitely have to take into consideration in the extra costs like the CF express which are friggin expensive and a card reader too. So if you’re rich… by all means go for it haha😀😀😀
Have the xh-2 but the inability to program iso to a command dial is driving me nuts. I still can’t believe Fuji does not let you do this. Ordered an xt5 but the lcd screen had a defect so I returned it. Love how you can have iso on the command dial of the xt5. I think the xt5 is priced to close to the xh2 for everything the cut. Both need firmware updates for the continuous tracking for subjects and eye autofocus. Way to jumpy and mine misses the eye more than it hits, and I’ve adjusted all the settings and tried multiple lenses including linear focus lenses. When shooting more than one person the eye/face box jumps around from one to another. They need a system like Nikon where it stays on one person and eye and let’s you toggle with the joystick between different subjects
Ya i hate that about the XH2/s... What i did instead is remapped the iso funciton to 1 of the D-pads, so it feels like a sony. I think find that to be a better alternative than using that iso button.
Love your humour and information 😂 I just got my hands on an XT5 and it looks great with the retro design and dials. That being said, I managed to get a feel of the XH2 in the store and it felt much more comfortable and better to grip - more natural in my hands. I’m new to Fuji and photography so I don’t know if dials or PASM will be better for me as as a beginner to learning photography. I do understand why still focused shooters would prefer the tilt screen, but I also feel that the articulating screen is more versatile and being able to rotate it inwards to protect the screen when not in use is a bonus. If you have the chance to trade the XT5 for the XH2 without topping up any cash, would you do it? (Someone I’m talking to is looking to trade his XH2 for XT5)
I think if you're new to Fujifilm the PSAM dials are more your speed because that's on every other camera brand as well..And ya I would if it's a straight trade, seems liek you're getting a deal. THE EVF and the LCD SCreen is so much better on the XH2. And if you are already seeing that the artiuclating screen is more versatile. that should just seal the deal.
Are there overheat issues with the XT5 or XH2 for recording outdoor sports? I've had the same camcorder for about 3 years. It can do 4k, but it can't output HDMI 4k to field monitor. I also want to take incredible pictures to have a mirrorless along side my older Nikon DSLR 3400.
I'm not too sure if there are consumer monitors out there that outputs to 4k. The ninja v does 1080 max. During my time with the XT5 i didn't experience overheating. Or my XH2
🙋🏻♂️ question which one of these do you recommend for portrait and landscape, also I would want to print out my photos if that makes a difference, thanks for the video 👍🏻
How often are you frustrated/let down by the autofocus of these 3. Is there any notable AF advantage of the XH2S over the other 2. And finally when balancing between Fuji and Sony do you ever feel like you need the Sony AF for better results. I only ask because I’m ditching my Canon R6 (too many overheating issues in non demanding situations) and I’m deciding between A7Siii and XH2S for 50/50 photo video work. Had the XT3 and XT4 and just felt video AF was a headache. Wish they had touch to track
I wouldn't say frustrated. I'd say the autofocusing is not to the level of sony's or canon.. but it's competitive.. And it's reliable..There are times where it still pulses, and I hate to say this because I don't want to give Fujifilm a PASS they should've given us a close to complete camera from the start instead of rolling out firmwares . But saying that ..maybe we are few more firmware updates and that nervousness goes away.. I don't know what you normally shoot, but for me shooting portraits the autofocusing has been great. I don't need it to be on SONY level but second or third place to it will suffice for me. I just want to know if i'm going to have keepers and have the eyes in focused when i tell the models to move around to capture movement.. So in that scenario it's been great for me, I've been having more keepers with the XH2/XH2s than the XS10...Same goes for video, when i make youtube videos, film b-rolls it works great I do get pulsing at the randomest scenario, which I can't recreate. But if that ever happens, I'll just do a retake and that retake has no pulse. It's the weirdest thing so that could be a firmware issue.. .. I also wish it had a touch to track. The only reason why I don't make a big deal out of it is because I feel that it's a big step from the xt3-xt4..And with the XH2s.. the video quality coming out of that is just NUTS.. Everytime I'm looking at it, it looks super cinematic, it has a nice look to it. So i'm a bit more forgiving because I can't get my sony footage to look like that. If i keep comparing the autofocusing to my sony I know i'm going to have a bad time so i rather not. Not to say that the New Fuji cameras sucks at AF... IT's reliable, it gets the job done for what I needed to do.. Comparison is really the thief of joy.
@@Iamtongue for the a7c I like the size and budget, same sensor as a7iii, and even same photo quality as a7iv. The fujifilm for the colors and to try something other than Sony. I’m more so looking for best quality photo rather than popularity
@@Moresco24 colours are the best on Fuji. Fuji lenses are smaller size. If you’re not good at editing raw files than you can spend a lot of time massaging your raw files on the Sony. Fuji raws are less stressful in my opinion. If you want full frame and full frame benefits .. Sony is the way.
I just started with wedding photography (but want also to do film) and I am looking for a new camera. Can't decide between the xt5 and the hx2. Sometimes I am thinking of buying the Sony a7iii because of the good ISO.... 😭 It's such a tough decision
Clean iso is nice but you’re gonna spend a lot of time getting the colours right on a Sony.. the workflow on the Fuji is quicker and not tedious if you’re editing raws.. I have a Sony a7iv and I’m always spending more time editing my raws than I would like. I don’t have that problem with my fujis.
@@Iamtongue thank you so much. You are confirming the reason why I want to switch to fuji in the first place. I heard that the xt5 has no efv. Because I am new to photography I don't really know what it is... Is it important for focusing? Maybe it would be a reason to get the xh2?
@@mindecolonia it has an evf it’s just not as bright and sharp like the xh2. It gets the job done. I think you’ll be satisfied with the xt5 if you’re new to photography.. When I first started photography I switched from a Sony a6300 to a Fujfiilm xt2 and have been using Fuji since. But hey if you can afford it and you like that pro grip and feature the xh2 is amazing as well.
Do the dials of the X-T5 feel thin/tinny? When I went from X-T2 to X-T3 it was a significant difference in the quality feel of the dials. Haven’t owned an X-T since…but tempted by the 5.
ya I believe the materials overall feels lighter in my hand. It doesn't have that robust feeling like the xt3..Don't quote me on that I had the fujifilm xt5 for 5 days only.. I forgot what it felt like already
not happy with my X-T3 for video. Thinking of getting an XH2s. Part of me wants to go Sony but the thought of a new ecosystem is financially daunting. Plus I just got the new Fuji 23 and 33mm 1.4s... Tongue do you think I'll be satisfied with the XH2s?
I understand your disappointment with the lack of a flip out screen on the XT5. It's always a bummer when a feature you were looking forward to is missing.
No single negative, despite that there are plenty. So tired of this youtbers brand-bootlikers who do that only to hope to get sponsorships and free products. Lame.

@@Iamtongue and liking your own comment haha. I am not broke at all, you said it yourself in your video, i bought XT4 and XH2S just for hobby things. So you are contradicting with your own words. I actually have something useful i do to a lot of people for money for work. I also do have a couple of reviews on my work channel, which people valued for exactly that reason - no bias, no bootlicking. Wasnt for cameras though. I may actually do a review of XT4 vs XH2S because there are nearly none of ubiased ones, mostly bootlickers wannabe youtubers. I did find Markuspix channela and another guy "Undone something" channel out of 100s which I actually trusted. 95% sadly, you included, just mislead people for money and serve as promotional tool for manufacturers. No value to society, zero. I actually also bought a BMPCC4K listening to people like you, that one I will return though, 100%. And I will definitely produce a video of XT4 vs BM camera, because black magic product is even more overpraised by bootlockers, I wonder how much BM advertising budget is, it is crazy how much shady stuff is going on on youtube nowadays, humans are such humans... always selfishness and ego takes the win.

I picked the XT5 over the XH2 because coming from ex XT3/4 user, I love the analog dials, plus I don’t do video at all. I prefer the tilt screen over the flip screen for myself. I do wish the EVF will share the same as the XH2 but not really a deal breaker. The new autofocus algorithm alone justified the upgrade from the XT3/4 for me. I am surprised with the added mp, the high iso performance didn’t take a hit at all and it seems even cleaner with less color noise when compare to the 26mp sensor.
I came from Sony, and the fully articulating screen is great for video, but using it effectively with photography, drove me nuts. So, I have the XH2s for video, and I went for the XT5 for photography (even though they can both work across photo and video). The flippy screen for video on the XH2s, sweet, and the normal tilt screen on the XT5 is perfect for my needs.
could you explain why/how the articulating screen isn't effective for photography?
@@whatthefitt It works, but for me, having to flip it out and turn it around, and then having it sticking out the side is just extra steps not needed. I shoot a lot of high end kids parties and kids are never still, so the less steps folding things out and back in again has made a big difference for me. It all comes down to what you shoot! Same applies for my video work, I love the flippy screen.
That seems like the perfect combo!
@@Iamtongue It’s a dream combo for my work!
@@danfarmer_photo thanks!
I am so torn which ones to take and honestly the new canon and sony are also worth considering. I didn’t have this problem when i bought the xt3. It’s such a shame Fuji didn’t make an xt5 with the specs of the h2. The whole thing makes me want to study other brands as well. Until a decision is made i will stay with my lovely xt3.
You thinking about getting the r5 or the Sony a7r5? 😮
@@Iamtongue I’m looking into these two and unfortunately even though I’m a fuji fan i need a camera that doesn’t compromise. Thanks for your content i subscribed to you right away 👍
@@davepi2173 I totally understand! Thanks for the support Dave
A7R5 - this is basically a X-H3 of the future made available today but twice the price. I'm switching to this after being Fuji user since X-T1. That 4-axis tilt/flip screen is awesome.
I'm stuck without either. I was really waiting for a camera that could do both 8K30 and 4K120. But even then, I would have wanted the traditional controls. So I'm going to buy a Z9 instead. Instead of 26MP stacked and 40MP non-stacked they should have done a 35-36MP stacked only and had only an X-T5 and an X-H2 that both were stacked with the same features but different controls and grips. The X-T5 would naturally be "less for video" by simply overheating.
Love your videos so much! You’re straight to the point, not too technical. so helpful.
thanks for the support man, ya im not a technical person, i find that very boring. I'll leave that to gerald undone lol
X-H2... Got mine a few weeks ago. Love it! Not sure which back up I get. Another X-H2 or X-T5.
Maybe another xh2 for your line of work 😅
PASM - Porsche Active Suspension Management
Buffer of the XT-5 is smaller. Less than two seconds uncompressed raw continuous shooting. See Gordon Laing's review of the XT-5. I am not sure about the noise for stills for the XT-5 and X-H2 40 MP vs the X-H2S's 25 MP.
ya i wouldnt shoot uncompressed for the xt5 anyways that shit takes up too much storage.
Outstanding IT!!! Love you too brother!!!
Haha thanks Jose 😊
Hi Thongue, I enjoy your videos thank's for making them. What I would like is a comparison between the X-S10 and one of the 2 cameras with a 40mpix sensor (Preferably the X-T5 because it's lighter). The question I have is about image quality, maybe the 26 Mpix sensor is in fact better in terms of character than the new 40mpix.
they look the same in terms of image quality.. XT5 sensor just gives you a bit better colour and better dynamic range, but other than that. It's the same
I enjoyed this💯 I might just have to head on over to my local camera store and go into debt for the new year....
LMAO what a way to start off the new year amirite? ;)

For a beginner (hoping to gain some proffesional work eventually) portrait and food photographer that also likes to take landscapes and make the odd video. Also likes to travel. Would you go xt5 or xh2?
xt5
So i have a question im looking at these and wondering what is the most versatile camera im hoping to shoot pictures allot and shoot cars and whatever looks cool and take it on trips
I’m thinking to buy XS20 for videography point of view but I’m confuse to spend more and take XT5 or Fix with XS20 for long term use for 5 to 8 years. I saw your all videos but still confuse i need your consent Which one would you suggest for me.
New subscriber!🙂
Thanks for subbing!
Which ones y’all getting? 😮
XH2......no brainer
@@de-graftasafo-adjei4646 I’m torn between the xt5 and the xh2! Why would you choose the xh2 over the xt5?
honestly I'm kind of hoping they'll come out with an XT50.... but I'll probably get impatient and splurge on the XT5
@@fretstain I don’t see the point of an xt50 if they are to to continue the xs10 line..
@@Iamtongue I see what you mean, and I've heard they're dragging their heels on releasing an xt50 to avoid eating into xs10 sales. I hope that's not the case though, I have an xt20 and I love it. I was hoping for that + improved video :S
Good and helpful video before making a purchase. What are the pros and cons when having to choose between the XT’s and the XH’s because of the different memory cards, is it worth the extra cost of the CF vs the SD ones and a new card reader and maybe more file storage capacity. Or should I just keep my X-T4 and stop asking questions🤣
Haha honestly If you have the xt4 you’re good. Image quality looks relatively the same. The reason why I would get the xt5 is if you need the autofocus. You definitely have to take into consideration in the extra costs like the CF express which are friggin expensive and a card reader too. So if you’re rich… by all means go for it haha😀😀😀
@@Iamtongue All I do is photograph iguanas and alligators, they don’t move that fast🤣🤣🤣 the X-T4 focusing is fast enough for me.
Have the xh-2 but the inability to program iso to a command dial is driving me nuts. I still can’t believe Fuji does not let you do this. Ordered an xt5 but the lcd screen had a defect so I returned it. Love how you can have iso on the command dial of the xt5. I think the xt5 is priced to close to the xh2 for everything the cut. Both need firmware updates for the continuous tracking for subjects and eye autofocus. Way to jumpy and mine misses the eye more than it hits, and I’ve adjusted all the settings and tried multiple lenses including linear focus lenses. When shooting more than one person the eye/face box jumps around from one to another. They need a system like Nikon where it stays on one person and eye and let’s you toggle with the joystick between different subjects
Ya i hate that about the XH2/s... What i did instead is remapped the iso funciton to 1 of the D-pads, so it feels like a sony. I think find that to be a better alternative than using that iso button.
I’ve told Fujifilm directly about this issue/complaint since the x-s10 but they’ve never fixed it
@@Reggiebphoto what if you screen shots all the people in the comments who also complained abotu this issue...??🥲
Love your humour and information 😂
I just got my hands on an XT5 and it looks great with the retro design and dials. That being said, I managed to get a feel of the XH2 in the store and it felt much more comfortable and better to grip - more natural in my hands.
I’m new to Fuji and photography so I don’t know if dials or PASM will be better for me as as a beginner to learning photography. I do understand why still focused shooters would prefer the tilt screen, but I also feel that the articulating screen is more versatile and being able to rotate it inwards to protect the screen when not in use is a bonus.
If you have the chance to trade the XT5 for the XH2 without topping up any cash, would you do it? (Someone I’m talking to is looking to trade his XH2 for XT5)
I think if you're new to Fujifilm the PSAM dials are more your speed because that's on every other camera brand as well..And ya I would if it's a straight trade, seems liek you're getting a deal. THE EVF and the LCD SCreen is so much better on the XH2. And if you are already seeing that the artiuclating screen is more versatile. that should just seal the deal.
@@Iamtongue thanks man
i would trade my xt5 too hahaha to XH2.
Are there overheat issues with the XT5 or XH2 for recording outdoor sports? I've had the same camcorder for about 3 years. It can do 4k, but it can't output HDMI 4k to field monitor. I also want to take incredible pictures to have a mirrorless along side my older Nikon DSLR 3400.
I'm not too sure if there are consumer monitors out there that outputs to 4k. The ninja v does 1080 max. During my time with the XT5 i didn't experience overheating. Or my XH2
🙋🏻♂️ question which one of these do you recommend for portrait and landscape, also I would want to print out my photos if that makes a difference, thanks for the video 👍🏻
Maybe the xh2 or the xt5. 40 megapixels would be nice 😊
And i am waiting for panasonic S1H ii ❤️ 🥺
That could be a game changer
@@Iamtongue indeed
Anyone compared the XT4 against any of these for portraits only? I don't do video. Landscapes mostly.
Ya you're good.
How often are you frustrated/let down by the autofocus of these 3. Is there any notable AF advantage of the XH2S over the other 2. And finally when balancing between Fuji and Sony do you ever feel like you need the Sony AF for better results. I only ask because I’m ditching my Canon R6 (too many overheating issues in non demanding situations) and I’m deciding between A7Siii and XH2S for 50/50 photo video work. Had the XT3 and XT4 and just felt video AF was a headache. Wish they had touch to track
I wouldn't say frustrated. I'd say the autofocusing is not to the level of sony's or canon.. but it's competitive.. And it's reliable..There are times where it still pulses, and I hate to say this because I don't want to give Fujifilm a PASS they should've given us a close to complete camera from the start instead of rolling out firmwares . But saying that ..maybe we are few more firmware updates and that nervousness goes away.. I don't know what you normally shoot, but for me shooting portraits the autofocusing has been great. I don't need it to be on SONY level but second or third place to it will suffice for me. I just want to know if i'm going to have keepers and have the eyes in focused when i tell the models to move around to capture movement.. So in that scenario it's been great for me, I've been having more keepers with the XH2/XH2s than the XS10...Same goes for video, when i make youtube videos, film b-rolls it works great I do get pulsing at the randomest scenario, which I can't recreate. But if that ever happens, I'll just do a retake and that retake has no pulse. It's the weirdest thing so that could be a firmware issue.. .. I also wish it had a touch to track. The only reason why I don't make a big deal out of it is because I feel that it's a big step from the xt3-xt4..And with the XH2s.. the video quality coming out of that is just NUTS.. Everytime I'm looking at it, it looks super cinematic, it has a nice look to it. So i'm a bit more forgiving because I can't get my sony footage to look like that. If i keep comparing the autofocusing to my sony I know i'm going to have a bad time so i rather not. Not to say that the New Fuji cameras sucks at AF... IT's reliable, it gets the job done for what I needed to do.. Comparison is really the thief of joy.

BOOM LETS GO
Need a little guidance choosing between the Sony a7c or one of these fujifilm, what would be the highest quality photo capable camera body?
What do you like about the two cameras?
@@Iamtongue for the a7c I like the size and budget, same sensor as a7iii, and even same photo quality as a7iv. The fujifilm for the colors and to try something other than Sony. I’m more so looking for best quality photo rather than popularity
@@Moresco24 colours are the best on Fuji. Fuji lenses are smaller size. If you’re not good at editing raw files than you can spend a lot of time massaging your raw files on the Sony. Fuji raws are less stressful in my opinion. If you want full frame and full frame benefits .. Sony is the way.
@@Iamtongue thanks for the help, is there no full frame fujifilm in that range ?
@@Moresco24 I wish lol. Next up is medium format
Bro. I have a Nikon Z9, Z30, Fuji XT5 and I still want the XH2S 😂 I also want a GFX100S LOL. I need to go to rehab.
Damn bro you have worse gas than me
Im not rich 😭😭😭
me too...that's why i dont have an xt5 🥲😂
Neither am i which is why im taking out a creditcard in someone elses name
XE2. Done. You just won’t have the video.
X-H2S if not A7 IV :)
The video coming out of the XH2s is so good!
i have the X-T5 because i thought i'll be using the dials hahah maybe im too busy to use it. haahhahaha so i'll be selling it and exchange to Xh2
I just started with wedding photography (but want also to do film) and I am looking for a new camera. Can't decide between the xt5 and the hx2. Sometimes I am thinking of buying the Sony a7iii because of the good ISO.... 😭 It's such a tough decision
Clean iso is nice but you’re gonna spend a lot of time getting the colours right on a Sony.. the workflow on the Fuji is quicker and not tedious if you’re editing raws.. I have a Sony a7iv and I’m always spending more time editing my raws than I would like. I don’t have that problem with my fujis.
@@Iamtongue thank you so much. You are confirming the reason why I want to switch to fuji in the first place.
I heard that the xt5 has no efv. Because I am new to photography I don't really know what it is... Is it important for focusing? Maybe it would be a reason to get the xh2?
@@mindecolonia it has an evf it’s just not as bright and sharp like the xh2. It gets the job done. I think you’ll be satisfied with the xt5 if you’re new to photography.. When I first started photography I switched from a Sony a6300 to a Fujfiilm xt2 and have been using Fuji since. But hey if you can afford it and you like that pro grip and feature the xh2 is amazing as well.
XH2S it is then 👌🏽
you gonna get? 😱
@@Iamtongue seriously considering it 😊
My Xt5 has over heating issues in photo and video
god damn that sucks.
Do the dials of the X-T5 feel thin/tinny? When I went from X-T2 to X-T3 it was a significant difference in the quality feel of the dials. Haven’t owned an X-T since…but tempted by the 5.
ya I believe the materials overall feels lighter in my hand. It doesn't have that robust feeling like the xt3..Don't quote me on that I had the fujifilm xt5 for 5 days only.. I forgot what it felt like already
Xt5 🎉
🎉🥳
But what are you recording this video on???
XH2s
not happy with my X-T3 for video. Thinking of getting an XH2s. Part of me wants to go Sony but the thought of a new ecosystem is financially daunting. Plus I just got the new Fuji 23 and 33mm 1.4s... Tongue do you think I'll be satisfied with the XH2s?
Ya for sure bro! I’m satisfied with my XH2s and I think my videos shot on the XH2s looks so much better than the ones shot on my sony..
sharpness is overrated and dynamic range is everything in video (I'd say)
thus go for xh2s if you're gonna spend big money anyway
boom
Hi from Greece.. Xt5 has better dynamic range than xh2?? And which one is more silent when you shoot?? Thank you in advance
Both have the same sensor so it’s the same.
i thought it was a masp dial
I’m dyslexic
I would have bought the XT5 had it a flip out screen. Total deal breaker.
I understand your disappointment with the lack of a flip out screen on the XT5. It's always a bummer when a feature you were looking forward to is missing.
