Main features of the product

1. With the new X-Trans™ CMOS 5 HR sensor and high-speed X-Processor 5 to produce the highest image quality in the history of the X-Series

(1) The X-H2 is equipped with the new 40.2 MP back-illuminated "X-Trans™ CMOS 5 HR" sensor. The 40.2 MP high-resolution sensor has an improved image processing algorithm to improve image resolution without compromising the S/N level, producing stunning image quality. It also has an improved pixel structure to efficiently attract a greater amount of light, allowing ISO125 to be a standard sensitivity rather than an extended option. This is particularly beneficial during the day when shooting outdoors or to take advantage of the large aperture to produce bokeh.

(2) The use of the new sensor and the resulting ability to control exposure time more precisely has improved the faster shutter speed for the electronic shutter by 2.5 stops from the previous 1/32000 sec to 1/180000 sec. This allows users to leave the aperture wide open in bright conditions, such as a sunny beach or ski slope, or capture a split-second movement.

(3) This is the first X-series camera to include the pixel-shifted multi-shot feature. The camera uses the IBIS mechanism to shift the image sensor with high precision for automatic shooting, recording 20 frames on a single shutter. The dedicated "Pixel Shift Combiner" software processes the captured frames to generate an image containing around 160 million pixels, which is perfect for commercial photography and digital archiving.

(4) The X-H2 supports the HEIF image format, which delivers 10-bit image quality in files up to 30% smaller than standard JPEG files, continuing to extend Fujifilm's reputation for delivering high-quality images directly from the camera.

2. Excellent video performance that meets the needs of professional video production

(1) With the addition of the new sensor, 8K movies can be recorded internally at 30P in 4:2:2 10-bit color. The X-H2 has a heat dissipation design just like the X-H2S to enable 8K/30P video recording for approximately 160 minutes*6, making 8K video a practical option. In addition, it supports 8K oversampling to produce high-quality 4K video, taking full advantage of the high-resolution sensor to record video with superior image resolution.

(2) X-H2 supports three Apple ProRes codecs; ProRes 422 HQ, ProRes 422 and ProRes 422 LT. When recording ProRes, X-H2 also supports proxy recording as ProRes 422 Proxy."*7. This reduces the workload of 8K video editing and streamlines the overall workflow from filming to post-production.

(3) The X-H2 features a digital zoom function* that uses the camera's 40.2MP sensor to deliver up to 2x digital zoom with light

A lossless resolution when recording 4K video, even with a main lens connected to the camera. Use with XF18-120mm F4 LM PZ WR for double the reach and a seamless transition to the digital zoom function when the lens reaches its maximum focal length.

(4) Combined with a compatible HDMI device from Atomos or Blackmagic Design, the X-H2's 12-bit RAW video output can be recorded as Apple ProRes or Blackmagic RAW at resolutions and frame rates up to 8K and 29.97 frames per second.

(5) In addition to F-Log, X-H2 also supports F-Log2, which records an extended dynamic range of more than 13 stops.* This range is wider than the current F-Log, expanding the post-production potential.

*6 When recording video at 25°C from a cold start, with the auto shutdown temperature set to High, H.265 4:2:0, a bitrate of 200Mbps, and VG-XH vertical battery grip with three batteries attached. The duration of the recording depends on the remaining battery charge and the type and capacity of the memory card used. When the main unit heats up, filming can stop automatically.

*7 *Proxy not available for 8K/30P and 8K/25P recording.

*8 *Available in three modes: 4K HQ, 4K DCI HQ, and FHD

• Evolved AF performance captures details accurately

(1) X-Processor 5 features Deep Learning Technology-based Subject Detection AF that automatically detects and tracks a wider range of subjects, including animals, birds, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, airplanes, and trains, as well as human faces and eyes, so imagers can focus on composition and creativity, trusting that X-H2 will follow the focus accurately.

(2) The new high-resolution sensor has a higher number of phase-detection pixels than current models, resulting in an improved ability to achieve AF-S focus on a subject with high frequency. Users can easily autofocus accurately in situations where AF-S is typically used, such as landscape and portrait photography. And the X-H2 also incorporates an improved AF prediction algorithm, which was recently developed for the X-H2S, allowing for stable focusing even when using AF-C.

(3) The X-H2 is newly equipped with a focus meter as an MF aid during movie recording, allowing for more precise focus adjustment. It can also be used in combination with the focus peak.

(4) 8K video recording requires advanced precision focusing. The video AF algorithm was optimized to improve autofocus accuracy, giving users a sense of confidence when using AF while shooting 8K video.

Features of the 150-600mm f5.6-8 R LM OIS WR lens

A super-telephoto zoom created for nature and wildlife imagers, the FUJIFILM XF 150-600mm f/5.6-8 R LM OIS WR, strikes a unique balance between immense reach and relatively portable design, making it an ideal lens for capturing the most remote and distant adventures.

Powerful optical image stabilization compensates for up to five stops of camera shake, making it easy to get sharp images when shooting handheld, especially in low-light conditions.

Fast and reliable autofocus performance thanks to a linear motor system, which also enables smooth and quiet focusing performance that benefits both still and video applications. This focusing system also helps to greatly reduce focus breathing.

The internal zoom and internal focus design maintain overall length and balance during use, making it more natural to use when mounted on a gimbal head and tripod or even when shooting handheld.

Focus controls on the lens for immediate touch adjustment on focus settings: focus range limiter switch, AF-ON and AF-L buttons.

Four Super ED and three ED elements are included, greatly reducing chromatic aberrations and color fringing throughout the zoom range for a high degree of clarity and color accuracy.

The modest maximum aperture of f/5.6-8 helps maintain a relatively portable form factor, meaning this lens can be worn handheld and packed for easier on-site use and for subjects that don't require maximum speed.

Offering an equivalent focal length range of 229-914mm, this super telephoto zoom is suitable for a wide range of distant subjects. It is also compatible with the optional XF 1.4x and 2x WR teleconverters, which can extend the lens to an additional 1828mm effective equivalent focal length.

The rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth, circular bokeh quality when using shallow depth of field and selective focus effects.
