The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator. | Fujifilm X-H1 Pros: IBIS, image quality, smartphone connection, "creative" quick settings Cons: not very durable battery, absurd weight with battery grip, some implants, facial recognition and AF absurdly left behind Opinion: I have owned this machine for two and a half years now, I have also recently purchased battery grip. It is reconfirmed, for better or for worse, an excellent "life" camera like most of the Fuji. The photos taken are in my opinion very beautiful, and all the image management (including film simulations and the choice of lenses, real flagships of the X system) offers a beautiful user experience. The editing on board is very cool and excellent images come out of it, to be sent directly to smartphones. The pros, however, stop there, with a long string of "warnings before use". The X-TRANS sensor beyond marketing remains a CMOS, with crop 1.5 for which you have to buy absurdly expensive lenses to have decent brightness and depth of field. Speaking of depth of field, the performance of the autofocus leaves much to be desired if you work with lenses faster than 2.0, and the performance of facial recognition can be defined as almost pitiful, with the green box that stops at random points in the background an embarrassing amount of times. The EVF, so much praised, seems to me in reality of quite mediocre use, and the rubber that surrounds it is constantly torn away by the skeletonization that keeps it attached to the body when rubbing against clothes during normal use. Speaking of handling, a view of micro-details and small overhangs out of the body meant that I felt I had to constantly handle this machine with gloves so as not to break it. The Q button on the bump for thumb grip was pressed more times by chance than by actual will. Let's talk about the battery life, which is insultingly low with the cost of the W126S still standing at € 70, and the fact that if you decide to equip the camera with a battery grip (available at ridiculous prices, around € 200) it becomes the life of a normal DSLR making it go to more than a kilo and a half if attached to good glass. In short, photographers be warned: it is an excellent camera and the initial purchase price is tempting, but it brings with it considerable usage fees for some of us. sent on May 05, 2025 |
