Fujifilm head into a new era with the X-H2S

X-H2S mirrorless camera

Fujifilm have launched an all-new sensor to welcome in a new era for the X-series. The X-H2S features the X-Trans CMOS 5 HS sensor, which is a stacked layer CMOS design that delivers information from sensor to processor 3.5x faster than the X-Trans 4 sensor.

X-H2S offers a powerful and versatile combination of photographic and filmmaking features to enhance any storyteller’s vision. Central to its success are the 26.1-megapixel, back-illuminated X-Trans 5 stacked sensor and X-Processor 5, which combine to provide a 14-stop dynamic range and outstanding performance in all lighting conditions. For motion professionals, there is a wealth of 6.2K 30P full sensor 3:2 recording options, which includes internal 10-bit 4:2:2 Apple ProRes and external Apple ProRes RAW and Blackmagic RAW, all with an electronic shutter capable of making images at 40 frames-per-second, with up to 7-stops of in-body image stabilization, and with an AI-powered advanced autofocus system designed to ensure that performance-seeking stills photographers will also not be disappointed.

XF150-600mm F5.6-8 R LM OIS WR

The very best lenses connect a photographer and their subject in a truly seamless way. Never before has an XF zoom lens achieved this to such an unparalleled degree – and over such a distance. As a stand-alone optic, XF150-600mmF5.6-8 R LM OIS WR provides an impressive 229-914mm full-frame equivalent focal range. Used with either FUJINON XF1.4X TC WR or XF2X TC WR, this extends to an equivalent range of 320-1280mm and 475-1824mm, respectively. Such outstanding coverage places a range of far-reaching subjects – including wildlife, nature, and landscape details – firmly within frame. Throughout the entire scope of focal lengths, this lens remains the same physical length, so it’s always perfectly balanced in use. Rapid and near-silent autofocus is ensured by a linear motor, and a range of physical focusing controls are close to the optic’s mount, including AF-ON, AF-L, and a focus range selector. Five stops of Optical Image Stabilization enables creativity in all conditions, while its weather-resistant design works to achieve the same goal of limitless opportunity. All this is housed in a lens that weighs just 1600g, measuring less than 315mm. XF150-600mm is not just a capable lens inside and out, it’s an extension of creativity where imagination is the only limitation.

XF18-120mmF4 LM PZ WR

Developed in collaboration with the engineers and experts responsible for the design of Fujifilm’s FUJINON Broadcast and Cinema Lenses, FUJINON XF18-120mmF4 R LM PZ WR lens brings video-centric features to a compact, weather-resistant lens that is ideal for smaller, independent crews and moviemaking enthusiasts. Its versatile, 35mm equivalent focal range of 27-183mm and 60cm (23.6in) close focusing distance make it ideally suited to a wide range of applications from documentary to narrative projects. Its internal zooming mechanism also makes it the perfect choice for gimbal stabilization devices as the lens’ physical length and center of gravity does not shift when changing focal lengths. Automated controls provide precise control over zooming speed and stepless aperture adjustments, with seamless switching between continuous AF and manual focusing giving filmmakers complete creative control over where and when to draw a viewer’s attention*1.

*1 Referenced focus functionality requires compatible camera firmware upgrade.

  • 35mm Equivalent Focal Length: 27-183mm
  • Maximum Aperture: F4
  • 15 elements in 12 groups with 3 aspherical and 3 ED lens elements
