Why the Fujilm X-H1 is the one camera you’ve been looking for.

-

Photograph­ers have been looking for ‘the one camera’ for a long time. The one camera to do everything: capture intricate images and shoot eye-catching video, while responding smoothly to every command and performing in any situation. All in a package that’s comfortabl­e to carry and unobtrusiv­e in its environmen­t.

The Fujilm X-H1 may be that one camera. It’s the company’s most advanced camera to date, built to excel for both photo and video capture. A 24MP X-Trans APS-C sensor delivers rich photograph­s with Fujilm’s lush colors. And X-Trans’ unique pixel arrangemen­t produces digital images reminiscen­t of lm.

For the rst time in the X series, the X-H1 comes with in-body 5-axis optical image stabilizat­ion (OIS). A three-axis accelerome­ter, three-axis gyro sensor, and a dedicated dual processor work together to correct for camera shake across ve axes (up and down, right and left pitch, yaw angle and optical axis rotation). When paired with a Fujilm lens, this allows the X-H1 to achieve more than ve-stops of image stabilizat­ion.

The X-H1’s autofocus performanc­e has been enhanced. It boasts 91 focus points (up to 325 points), with a phase detection AF area that covers most of the frame for rapid autofocus. The camera can now focus to -1EV, which gives it an edge in low-light performanc­e. Improved AF-C (continuous autofocus) tracks erratic subjects with accuracy, helping you capture sports and animals in sharp relief.

The X-H1 is capable at both stills and video. It can shoot UHD 4K at up to 30p, as well as the wider digital cinema aspect ratio of DCI 4K at 23.98 and 24p. The X-H1 can capture high dynamic range F-Log footage internally, and output uncompress­ed footage externally. A premium microphone (24bit/48KHz) is built in for convenient audio recording. Film Simulation modes are available in video, reducing the time needed for color grading in post.

The X-H1’s expansive features are built into a tough and durable camera body with responsive controls. Its chassis is compact and lightweigh­t, but also the most resistant to shock and damage in the X series. It’s dust and moisture-resistant and can work in environmen­ts as cold as -10°C. The X-H1 also comes with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi for easy wireless transfers to a computer or smart mobile device.

Dedicated dials provide quick access to essential controls, such as shutter speed and ISO sensitivit­y. The X-H1 is the rst X series camera to feature an LCD monitor on its top plate, with main settings, such as aperture, boldly displayed. A rear 3.0-inch 1.04-million-dot LCD monitor can be tilted by up to 90 degrees, with a capacitive touch panel for easy access.

With its comprehens­ive features and profession­al performanc­e, the Fujilm X-H1 may be the one camera that photograph­ers can bring anywhere and capture any shot, whether in still images or moving video.
