X-H1 vs X-T3 EVF

Hi all,

Second post here would appreciate the input. I just purchased an X-T3 and X-H1.
The EVFs on paper are meant to be the same with same refresh rates when in boost mode.

The sizes are also meant to be almost exactly the same at 0.50 inches X-T3 and 0.48 inches X-H1 with the same resolution.
However the X-H1 EVF feels smaller (bigger black border around the edges) and not as clear. It also gives me eye strain after just a few minutes. (I have adjusted diopter). It feels like its further away if that makes sense?

Has anyone else noticed a difference between the EVFs when using them side by side because on paper they are meant to be the same. Perhaps its just this particular X-H1.

Thanks,

Fuji claims that it is exactly the same EVF (Sony-made OLED), but to my recollection the refresh rate of the X-T3 is a bit higher. The main difference (re. the EVF) is the processor of both cameras. The X-T3 has a later generation processor that allows for higher refresh rates. Make sure both cameras are in 'boost' mode when you compare them. Also other features (like brightness and color setting) can cause difference in EVF experience as well as minor changes in the optics in front of the EVF. Fuji isn't specific about changes re. this.

I can't compare anymore since I sold both cameras and switched. From that experience I can tell that the same EVFs on paper can make a great difference in practice. So, always check the EVF yourself before you buy a camera. Esp. when you wear glasses or need to change the diopter.

EVF on X-H1 Is much much better and More realistic. Tested and proven 100%

X-H1 Is the best camera that Fuji ever made

Thank you both for the reply - both helpful. I decided to stay with the X-H1 and send the X-T3 back. The IBIS and grip are great additions and as you both mentioned the EVF is great. I have my x-pro2 when I want a smaller camera.

 

Cheers,
