Good morning. I am Alan from the UK. Currently using Canon M50, with M glass and Lovely Sigma glass. Looking to upgrade and change system and extremely interested in the new Fuji XH2. I’m a multi-discipline amateur so Landscape, Seascape, Planes/fighter jets, Street and more ongoing. Want resolution AND decent speed, but speed isn’t the most important as Ive been used to a very modest output on the M50 and take sharp photos on the Jets. . 

Always appreciated Fuji colours and the brand as a whole. Considering Sony FF, but leaning towards the new XH2. 

 

How have new owners and experienced Fuji users found this?

 

thanks AL

Just got my X-H2 with a 33mm f/1.4 2 days ago but I haven't been doing any photography since 2017. All I can say with this new body paired with the new prime lens is that the autofocus is outstanding, also to be honest the X-H2 feels better ergonomically to use compared to the X-T series as blasphemous as it sounds as a lot of people who switch to Fuji is because of the X-T series and its retro feels which sadly I thought I would like but didn't. This is from the perspective of someone who last shot with a Canon 7D2 and X-T20 5 years ago :).

Same here ... 

I've arrive at Fuji after 30+ years of Canon ... wanted quality in a smaller form factor ... went the X-T3 route first thinking I'd like the dials etc.(having initially shot 100% manual on film) ... but just found myself frustrated that I was always changing settings other than the exposure in the camera.   

I much prefer the C1-C7 on the X-H2 that I can setup how I want ...

      LUT doesn't works on resolve

      By PoorAlchemist · Posted

      I found the reddit topic i refere to :  https://www.reddit.com/r/davinciresolve/comments/1pc3f1e/cant_apply_new_fujifilm_gfx_55_lut/ "Update for y'all, It's just like what @ExpBalSat said, it's because of the backslashes in the names break them. I changed the file name and it works now. "   For me it was the solution. Realy annoying if it doesn’t work for you 😕

      LUT doesn't works on resolve

      By Don Barar · Posted

      Here is the solution to using the Eterna 55 file simulation LUTs in Davinci Resolve.   In general, do not use the FLog2C to film simulation LUTs as they are not supported by Davinci Resolve for two reasons: 1) Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut Color Space and 2) Davinci Resolve does not support FLog2C gamma.  Instead, use Flog2 which is supported by Davinci Resolve.  Here is an example.  Let's say that you want to use Classic Chrome simulation.  Do the following: Complete your color grade and use a CST to get to Rec 709. Add a node.  Use a CST to convert from Rec 709 to FLog2.  Output Color space is Rec 2020 and Outout Gamut is FLog2. Add a node.  Apply the FLog2 to Classic Chrome LUT Create a combination node from node in steps 2 and 3. Apply a Key to the combination node and adjust the Key Output Gain to get the amount of the combination node that you want applied. So that you do not have to do this over and over again, generate a LUT for the combination node.  Remember to turn off all other nodes before generating the LUT. Hope this helps others. Don

      Thanks for the insights. I think it's really hard to make a decision without having the two side by side!

      I don’t have the 23 f2 but I have read several times that it is considered a little soft at close distance, compared to the 23 f1.4 lenses. These will also focus at shorter distance from the subject, esp. the new one. So that might make a difference. The new 23 f1.4 LM WR  has better resolution, esp. in regard to the 40Mpix sensors, which you don’t have on the X-T2. What practical difference that makes for the value of the pictures one makes is disputable and subjective.  f1.4 will gather more light but with a smaller DOF, which may be desirable in some situations but not so in others, depends. If you like to shoot close ups, you will probably use higher f numbers to get a bigger DOF. Same for landscapes. If you are a bokeh fan, yes the f1.4 lens are better.  The older 23 f1.4 lens that you are considering is a very good and respected lens. The f1.4 vs f2 aperture per se is perhaps not so important. The 23 f2 is very small, light and practical and a great lens for travel and landscapes. So, go figure. I am afraid I just sent you further down the road to insanity !

      First post here but long time fuji shorter. I use the XT2 with the 23mm f2 / 35mm 1.4 / 16-80mm f4 I'm considering the 23mm f1.4 r (Non-WR) About me: - I shoot black and white only. - I like macro details to wide open landscapes and everything in-between. - I shoot mostly for art, intrigue and creativity of the image. My question - is the 23mm f1.4 going to offer me any meaningful difference over the f2 for the above scenarios Thanks and sorry for bringing it up again...
