Could this be the best X Series camera ever?

FUJIFILM X-H2S

Based on the rumours that were swirling in the build-up to Fujifilm’s May 2022 X-Summit event, we thought we were getting a Fujifilm X-H2, but the X-H2S surpasses our expectations, especially when it comes to its impressive high-speed shooting and video specs.

Fujifilm is a bit late to the highspeed party, having traditionally aimed its cameras squarely at the lifestyle end of photography – think food, portrait and travel. However, the manufacturer might now have done enough to be considered a serious contender among those who rate speed as a priority when it comes to choosing a camera. And speed aside, the Fujifilm X-H2S is a very capable camera in its own right.

Key features

Aimed at pro photographers who need high-speed performance for tracking wildlife, sports or action, the X-H2S is designed to pack all the features that a photographer could want or need when shooting at a race track or tucked away in a bird hide. It’s also a powerful machine, catering to the diverse needs of the modern content creator as well as hybrid shooters.



At the heart of the camera is a brand-new X-Trans CMOS 5 HS sensor which has a signal readout speed that’s roughly four times faster than the sensor in the Fujifilm X-T4, but the same 26.1MP resolution. The sensor has a stacked-layer structure, and it’s this that enables the photographer to achieve blackout-free continuous shooting up to a sort-of-ridiculous 40 frames per second – by comparison, the flagship Nikon Z 9 and Sony A1 both max out at 30fps continuous shooting with their electronic shutter. You’ll actually get over 1,000 frames when setting the high-speed burst shooting mode to 30 frames per second for JPEGs, or 20 frames per second in raw mode.
