Thanks for taking us on a walk around Vienna…what beautiful light and city! Those elements combined with Fuji colors=superb. Very tastefully done! Now it makes me want to visit Austria.
Thank you Matt! The channel is only a few days old and I am no influencer nor have I influencer friends to help me boost the channel, I will have to put some hard work to earn every subscription :D
Thats footages are magnificient! Absolutely awesome. Yes, I see that the City is beautiful, shot during golden hour, but when put all this together - that is real magic. Thank you! I just got Fuji X-H2 after X-T3 and was a bit frustrated with some points. But now I see what can be done… and I love it! Alao thank you so much for resume that the camera is created to joy the life. That’s true!
Hey Carlos, thanks for this review. I always enjoy watching tech reviews, cause for me as a humble amateur especially in high class photography I more often than not get lost in all the specifications written on the camera descriptions. And the point where you talk about 8k recording, I honestly see that on a lot of models.... even my phone is supposed to record in 8k, but it is rather unusable unless you use a gimbal. Anyways, thanks for the updates, looking forward for more!
Beautiful images and loved re-visiting Vienna. Thank you for the real world review of this camera, I’ve been considering each of the new Fuji releases (to help out my Xt-3 for more pro work) and it’s been a tough decision!
Great stuff. I have several Fuji cameras including the X-T5 and I am picking up my new X-H2 in 2 days time. I already have the new 56mm lens and I am looking forward to trying all this kit out over the weekend here in London where I live. I was in Vienna last month and agree it is a great city.
I find the FX30 the most "cinema oriented" of these three. The XH2s is great hybrid camera with a preference for video and speed, and the XH2 another great hybrid camera where resolution has more weight.
@@carlosdomi It's a beautiful video, I like it, I thought it was made like an old movie on purpose, together with the music style......For example the scene at 1:18, first quadrant, or 2:15.
I shot this with the 16-55 2.8, which is almost perfect in every way. What you see there isn’t flaring, that was a very hazy day. It was also sunny, so the haze would reflect the light and create that super bright, white sky (you don’t see any blue, simply a very bright fog)
Oh man, what's with that micro jitter f.ex. at 2:29? That makes me very nervous, I had that so bad with a MFT Panny 12-35 2.8 lens......... Is that a body problem? Or are you actually "violently shaking the camera"? :)
I think it happens at long focal lengths when with no stabilised lenses and with your IBIS mode set to "panning". At first I thought it was my problem, but I've seen it happening again when I was very carefully holding the camera. I need more testing tho, and if I figure out what/how it happens I will do a video explaining the issue
On the XH2 or XT5, how high of an ISO setting do you feel comfortable using before the noise becomes unacceptable? Do you usually use a flash at night time or indoors?
Hello Allen! Even though Fuji has decreased the base ISO, the truth is that it doesn't really have an impact on real world usage. I set my max ISO to 3200, but I try to stay under 1000. And regarding your second question: the few times I used flashes were simply to get a very specific look, otherwise I don't really use them.
I absolutely love your review! Not only that- You should be an example of how and what a reviewer should be presenting a camera specifically. I don’t wanna watch some wanna be “expert” showing how he/she holds the camera, and how good or bad looks in their hands. So ridiculous!! This is a perfect, honest, precise for the “regular” non-pro user of a camera, and make the decision for your self if you like it or not! Not being persuaded by some paid UA-camr that will tell me-if it’s a Great or Horrible camera. Show real footage samples (just like you did here) and I will decide if it’s for me or not! Great review! Salute you 🍺🍷
Usually my automatic max ISO is 3200, but that's really the worst case scenario. Since you asked, I just checked two files shot at 3200 and 2000 and… well, it's very noisy. I'd try to stay at 1250 max, which is only a bit more than the base ISO of 1000 for FLOG2.
Loved the video. Would love to see a video on your settings you used on this walk. I really loved the colours on the photos and im really curious on how you achieved them. Keep up the good work. You have a new sub
09:20 Great review! I wonder: How much is the rolling shutter affecting normal filming? All the examples I see of the rolling shutter of the XH2 is where it is violently panned from left to right, but this is not a realistic scenario. But how much of a problem is the rolling shutter with normal filming?
not a big deal… unless you have cars, trains, trams etc and objects moving relatively quick. And non-existent in photos :) will probably have to make re-review focused on the experience after 6 months working with it!
Hello Carlos, thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts on the X-H2. I have ordered the X-H2 on Friday, and I am curious how I will get used to the different handling of this Fuji camera (I use a X-T2 now). I live in Austria, and I am in Vienna quit often, for me it was very nice to see your pictures from there...
thank you Frank for your your words! What motivated me to create this channel was the thought that some people would appreciate watching content based in Europe - since most of it comes from the US/Canada. You will feel a size different in comparison to the XT2, but also a huge performance jump. Be patient with the controls! And congratulations for the purchase, it's such a great camera
Be sure to post your feedback. I’m an xt2 user as well but very hesitant to make the switch. Its the xt5 very low buffer that steers me towards the H series but they’re so….different :/
I'm really wanting to switch Fuji for my pro set-up from Sony. I really like using my xt-3 and find it gets me there 75% of the time, but misses easy focus shots too often. Is the X-H2(s) a noticable step up in AF?
It's absolutely better than the T3. I had a T4 and it's better than that. But I wouldn't expect it to be as good as Sony. I haven't been frustrated with it, though.
I used Nikon d810 and I want to have a more video centric camera. I was confused between Nikon z6 II which is a full frame and Fuji xh2…. I’m still not sure which one I should go with. Do you have any better recommendation for me ?
that Nikon Z6 is probably a great option for you if you have already invested into Nikon glass. Otherwise, there are right now plenty of great cameras for you to choose from: XH2S, XH2, A7 4, Canon R7, R6, R5…it all depends on your taste and preferences
XH2S offers a better low light performance, that's for sure. Now, wether if it's enough of a difference to justify purchasing one or the other, that's up to the user. I couldn't compare XT4 and XH2 directly, but the first impression was that the XT4 could handle low light conditions a bit better, but I might be mistaken and/or the difference is minuscule.
I'm pretty sure the lowlight vs megapixel idea has been debunked, and coming from a T4 I can't tell you that I haven't noticed anything wrong with night shooting other than being amazed that I'm somehow shooting at 1/6th of a second handheld LOL. And if there is any noise, well, the film look is "in" right now anyway, so many are going to be adding grain to their images regardless of how clean they were when they started. The H2 won't disappoint. If there's a difference, only a pixel peeper would notice. And if you're pixel peeping, you're probably missing the point!
Absolutely beautiful video and photography sound is also spot on and for someone who not a native English speaker you nailed it! I’m looking into getting a Fiji-film switching from Nikon will you be doing a review on the xt5 ?
Gorgeous shots man, what film silmulation do you use? You just gave me motivation to get thru editing my Scandinavia trip shots with the XH2 lol Vienna is gorgeous.
Great footage but i really ask myself where the technical advance is as my panasonic gh5 from 2018 can match fujis image quality any day. On the other hand it is a great thing as you dont need the newest most expensive gear to get great images
I am afraid I disagree. I've been using two GH5's bodies for work for three years and although the GH5 is a great camera, the image quality is far, far from what Fuji offers on the XT3, XT4, XT5, XH2 etc… For starters, the color on Panasonic is muted and "pale", and there's no possibility of shooting log unless you put another 100$ extra to update the cameras. The autofocus is an absolute mess: no need to mention the GH5 is completely unable to track anything in the image. And last but not least, the GH5 gets very grainy very quickly, making extremely difficult to shoot in mid to low light conditions even when a 15mm f1.7 lens. The IBIS, though, performs much better in the Panasonic when it comes to panning/tilting. GH5 was and still is great, but already in 2018 there were cameras with better image quality and features.
@@carlosdomi i understand what you mean but i edit my footage. You can do a lot if you are good in editing/color grading. , same with photos. When i edit a picture you dont see any difference to good full framecameras..The gh5 natural profile looks great straight out of camera if exposed right. And it does just that, it looks natural with accurate colors. The af could be better i agree but for my boudoir videos its good enough. I film my models with no problems at all. Street videos like you do here are easy, i just get my olympus pro lense to infinty and turn af completely off as everything will be in focus. No hunting, no problems. I learned that you have to learn your gear to use it to its full potential and any camera has pros and cons. Many people rely on the fuji film looks for everything because it is easy but i like to create my own look. By the way , my last shooting was in the hilton vienna. Have a wonderful sunday🍀
both XT5 and XH2 share sensor and processor, they should have the exact same auto focus performance. And the XH2S, in theory, should feel slightly more snappy.
Hi there! these were all edited in Lightroom using used a custom color profile; some kind of mix between classic chrome and classic negative, with green shadows. Maybe I'll do a video about it some time this winter!
Thank you! I haven't had the chance to test it under very challenging conditions since the season was coming to an end and most shoots have been static, but the feeling in both is that they aren't very far off the Canon R5. I don't think I would feel difference in autofocus speed/precision between the XH2 and the XH2S
in this case, I didn't use a particular recipe, only some basic settings I like to use before editing. I find that recipes work better in very particular light conditions, and sometimes I struggle to adapt them.
nice review and your photos are very good. I'm using Xh-2 and couldn't get such sharp images at sunset. It would be better if you write the settings next to your photos. Or you can give machine-specific recommendations. I subscribed. Thank you.
I'll make sure to add the settings next time. but if you want to know the settings used in any specific photo that you've seen here, just let me know :) And thank you!
hey Manny, I used no tripod that day :) if you pay attention you'll see some micro-jitters when using the longer end of the lens. Thas partially my fault, but also an issue I've been having with the XH2.
hey Matt! thank you :) most of the images in this video were shot in RAW, but I usually start editing by adding Classic Chrome/Neg as profile. In some other cases (photos taken during the walk), I used a color profile I created some time ago that tries to mix features from Classic Neg & Classic Chrome. The one thing that keeps me from using JPEGs more often is that I can't shoot in continuous if I add clarity effect.
Muy buen vídeo, y las imágenes de Viena top! Estoy dándole vueltas a la XH2 para renovar la XT3, y veo que comentas el tema del rolling shutter cómo mucha gente. Tú que vienes de las XT3/4, cómo lo ves comparado con estas? Mucho peor? Me tira un poco para atrás pero no hay forma de encontrar comparativas 😅
Buenas Pablo, y muchas gracias por pasarte y tu comentario :) tengo pendiente un "X meses trabajando con la XH2" para hablar de estas cosas. La cosa es que en muy poquitas ocasiones lo he notado en uso "real", más que nada porque en pocas ocasiones he necesitado 8K, 6K o 4K HQ. En los codecs más normales, lo cierto es que no he notado diferencia con la XT3/4. Al menos nada que me haya llamado la atención.
@@carlosdomi muchas gracias! Lo que más me tiraba para atrás era con el 4K HQ, porque el "normal" lo ponían flojillo, aunque imagino que seguirá siendo mejor que la T3 😅 Al final los paneos rápidos no son tan típicos fuera de deportes con mucha velocidad, pero grabo bastantes carreras de atletismo y ahí igual sí que se llega a notar 🤦🏻♂️ Estaré atento a ese vídeo! Aunque igual ya lo veo con la H2(o la S) en casa! 😂
@@wikdmessenger maybe massive wasn’t the best word, but it’s also a matter of perspective too. When it comes to rolling shutter and high dynamic range in certain modes, yes, the difference is pretty big. Check this video for example ua-cam.com/video/dbrVD-TyuGQ/v-deo.html Those differences won’t be so big for other users and it will depend on which scenario we are using them. Also, thank YOU for passing by 🙏🏻
Thank you Jason, and welcome. I'd take the XH2 over the XT5 if I am going to be using that camera for long shoots and video. Also, having the CF Express card, although it can be inconvenient having to bring more readers with you, is a blessing. It really speeds up transfers and eases continuous shooting to what essentially feels like an infinite buffer. More Fuji content coming soon :)
as someone who dislikes Canon for its magenta tint, I don't see any messed up skin tones here. But if you are talking about that last piece to camera, that comes from the single light I used
I feel that the exposure on many still images is incorrect, ie overexposed. So far on seeing XH2 reviews I cannot justify 'upgrading' from my excellent X-T4.
well, assuming that I wanted that look and no other, there's no "correct" exposure I am afraid. Also, you might be mistaking a very hazy day with a clear sky.
Nice city but video in most parts sky is overexposed and my x-h2 does it as well which is really annoying and pisses me off. I think its of that 40mp sensor. Actually even ergonomics doesn't help to like this camera
Hey there! The sky is on purpose exposed like that since it’s not a clear sky but a very hazy one. There was no blue color, just a bright cloud of haze/fog. I haven’t had any issues with exposure.
Dude, this is a 2000€ camera that shoots fricking amazing video, it is not a "photo based" camera. It is fully hybrid. Get your facts right. XH2S only advantage is less rolling shutter and 4k 120. Dynamic Range is almost identical (Gerald Undone) I've seen ALL the videos comparing and you cannot tell which camera is which, only in dark dark situations where the stacked sensor is slightly better.... 500€ better?? No fricking way!!
I have to admit that in some cases it’s my fault since I’m actually moving. But the truth is that in both the XT4 and XH2 (and XH2S), the IBIS doesn’t really work well when panning slowly, or filming “around” an object. The GH5 and Canon R5 that I’ve used in similar environments performed much better.
Thanks for taking us on a walk around Vienna…what beautiful light and city! Those elements combined with Fuji colors=superb. Very tastefully done! Now it makes me want to visit Austria.
One of the best videos I've seen on these newer Fuji cameras. Fantastic work, Carlos!

Hi Carlos. Thanks for your excellent review of the X-H2! Would you know if the Fujinon XF 16-80 f/4 be able to resolve the 40MP sensor?
I've been trying to decide for two weeks... Yes two weeks.. Xt5 or xh2... I heard the xt5 has some build quality issues.
Beautiful images and loved re-visiting Vienna. Thank you for the real world review of this camera, I’ve been considering each of the new Fuji releases (to help out my Xt-3 for more pro work) and it’s been a tough decision!
I can't wait to have this in my hands, I bought one yesterday. i was so torn between this and the xt5 but I love the classic dslr look to it.
Best review so far. Really love how you captured the viennese vibe! :)
Great stuff. I have several Fuji cameras including the X-T5 and I am picking up my new X-H2 in 2 days time. I already have the new 56mm lens and I am looking forward to trying all this kit out over the weekend here in London where I live. I was in Vienna last month and agree it is a great city.
Thank you for your thoughts, the lovely images, and it was good to see some of the same locations used in Inspector Rex.
Very relaxed, enjoyable and informative video. Thank you!
Great review!!! Can I ask you to share your film simulation recipe? I like it a lot
Very valuable insight into small practical details. Many thanks.
Carlos what would be the better choice betwen sony fx30 and hs2 or hsx2
I find the FX30 the most "cinema oriented" of these three. The XH2s is great hybrid camera with a preference for video and speed, and the XH2 another great hybrid camera where resolution has more weight.
Tfs and good luck with your channel!
This 56/1.2 lens flares like a non-coated lens from the 50s, did you put some oily finger prints on the front element?
If you point in the timeline to which image your refer to, maybe I can give you the answer. But no, no “oily finger prints”
@@carlosdomi It's a beautiful video, I like it, I thought it was made like an old movie on purpose, together with the music style......For example the scene at 1:18, first quadrant, or 2:15.
I shot this with the 16-55 2.8, which is almost perfect in every way. What you see there isn’t flaring, that was a very hazy day. It was also sunny, so the haze would reflect the light and create that super bright, white sky (you don’t see any blue, simply a very bright fog)
@@carlosdomi That explains it, thank you.
Oh man, what's with that micro jitter f.ex. at 2:29? That makes me very nervous, I had that so bad with a MFT Panny 12-35 2.8 lens......... Is that a body problem? Or are you actually "violently shaking the camera"? :)

Nice video. Liked the slow pace of it.
You mention you shoot motorbikes. How do you find the afc for that? Missing the xh2s performance?
Thank you! I haven't had the chance to test it under very challenging conditions since the season was coming to an end and most shoots have been static, but the feeling in both is that they aren't very far off the Canon R5.

in this case, I didn't use a particular recipe, only some basic settings I like to use before editing. I find that recipes work better in very particular light conditions, and sometimes I struggle to adapt them.

Great video and review! Love your color grading in many of your images. Are they custom or are they in camera sims (or a combo of both)?
hey Matt! thank you :) most of the images in this video were shot in RAW, but I usually start editing by adding Classic Chrome/Neg as profile. In some other cases (photos taken during the walk), I used a color profile I created some time ago that tries to mix features from Classic Neg & Classic Chrome. The one thing that keeps me from using JPEGs more often is that I can't shoot in continuous if I add clarity effect.
These pictures are original or edited ?
Edited, all of them. Very, very rarely would I post something completely unedited
Muy buen vídeo, y las imágenes de Viena top! Estoy dándole vueltas a la XH2 para renovar la XT3, y veo que comentas el tema del rolling shutter cómo mucha gente. Tú que vienes de las XT3/4, cómo lo ves comparado con estas? Mucho peor? Me tira un poco para atrás pero no hay forma de encontrar comparativas 😅
Buenas Pablo, y muchas gracias por pasarte y tu comentario :) tengo pendiente un "X meses trabajando con la XH2" para hablar de estas cosas. La cosa es que en muy poquitas ocasiones lo he notado en uso "real", más que nada porque en pocas ocasiones he necesitado 8K, 6K o 4K HQ. En los codecs más normales, lo cierto es que no he notado diferencia con la XT3/4. Al menos nada que me haya llamado la atención.
@@carlosdomi muchas gracias! Lo que más me tiraba para atrás era con el 4K HQ, porque el "normal" lo ponían flojillo, aunque imagino que seguirá siendo mejor que la T3 😅 Al final los paneos rápidos no son tan típicos fuera de deportes con mucha velocidad, pero grabo bastantes carreras de atletismo y ahí igual sí que se llega a notar 🤦🏻♂️ Estaré atento a ese vídeo! Aunque igual ya lo veo con la H2(o la S) en casa! 😂
Thank you, Carlos, interesting!
The information LCD screen...isn't it like the electronic ink like a kindle?
The Kindle uses an e-ink kind of display, this one is a traditional monochrome LCD, more like a Casio watch.
Great Video!
Thank you David, much appreciated 😊
Thanks for the review! Are you sure the difference in iso performance between h2s and h2 is 'massive'? Most other reviewers says small.
@@wikdmessenger maybe massive wasn’t the best word, but it’s also a matter of perspective too. When it comes to rolling shutter and high dynamic range in certain modes, yes, the difference is pretty big. Check this video for example ua-cam.com/video/dbrVD-TyuGQ/v-deo.html
Those differences won’t be so big for other users and it will depend on which scenario we are using them.
Also, thank YOU for passing by 🙏🏻
Best camera
Hola Guapo! Gr8 Video 🙌🏽
Interesting street lights ❤
As a Fuji user I’m glad I found your channel. Great review. Would you recommend the X-H2 over the XT5?
Thank you Jason, and welcome. I'd take the XH2 over the XT5 if I am going to be using that camera for long shoots and video. Also, having the CF Express card, although it can be inconvenient having to bring more readers with you, is a blessing. It really speeds up transfers and eases continuous shooting to what essentially feels like an infinite buffer. More Fuji content coming soon :)
Your photography reminds me of Roman Fox. Nice
For someone who loves Fuji color science you got your video skin tones messed up, did you choose the correct white balance? nasty magentas
as someone who dislikes Canon for its magenta tint, I don't see any messed up skin tones here. But if you are talking about that last piece to camera, that comes from the single light I used
Fuji colours😍
I feel that the exposure on many still images is incorrect, ie overexposed. So far on seeing XH2 reviews I cannot justify 'upgrading' from my excellent X-T4.
well, assuming that I wanted that look and no other, there's no "correct" exposure I am afraid. Also, you might be mistaking a very hazy day with a clear sky.
Nice city but video in most parts sky is overexposed and my x-h2 does it as well which is really annoying and pisses me off.
I think its of that 40mp sensor.
Actually even ergonomics doesn't help to like this camera
Hey there! The sky is on purpose exposed like that since it’s not a clear sky but a very hazy one. There was no blue color, just a bright cloud of haze/fog. I haven’t had any issues with exposure.

Please no cheap music- the shutter sound is beautiful
without music there's no pace, no mood. Sorry you didn't like it!
@@carlosdomi the pace, the mood is in the photos! They are evocative. They have confidence on their own.
Cute dog 👀
right?? I have to talk to her human to convince her to help me make a dog-centred video ^^
Dude, this is a 2000€ camera that shoots fricking amazing video, it is not a "photo based" camera. It is fully hybrid. Get your facts right. XH2S only advantage is less rolling shutter and 4k 120.
Dynamic Range is almost identical (Gerald Undone) I've seen ALL the videos comparing and you cannot tell which camera is which, only in dark dark situations where the stacked sensor is slightly better.... 500€ better?? No fricking way!!
That stutter from ibis is pretty bad ...
I have to admit that in some cases it’s my fault since I’m actually moving. But the truth is that in both the XT4 and XH2 (and XH2S), the IBIS doesn’t really work well when panning slowly, or filming “around” an object. The GH5 and Canon R5 that I’ve used in similar environments performed much better.
Stopped watching, colours just horrible for my taste
how beautiful that we don't have the same taste - thank you for the information
DR are utterly overrated
