Fujifilm X-H1
The X-H1 is an impressive addition to Fujifilm's X-Series of mirrorless cameras, featuring several ground-breaking features designed to meet the requirements of the more serious photographer.
Steady As You Go
A great photo needs a solid, shake-free foundation and the X-H1 helps you achieve that. In a first for an X Series camera, the X-H1 features in-body image stabilization for clear shots particularly with settings where camera shake can be a problem e.g. slow shutter speed or long focal length.
Updated Video
In another enhancement, video recording on the X-H1 has been updated. It now includes DCI/CINE-4K video recording for incredibly clear and detailed footage.
A Touch Of Hollywood
The X-H1 is the first in the X-Series to feature ETERNA. This mode gives your footage a cinematic feel, particularly with the way you view colours and shadows, and also gives you lots of ways to express yourself creatively during post-processing.
An Amazing Viewfinder
Many serious photographers prefer to take shots with their eye right on the viewfinder. The X-H1 makes this experience something special with an ultra-high resolution of its viewfinder plus 100% coverage of the frame.
Brilliant But Tough
The robust new body design on the X-H1 makes this camera the toughest of the X-Series models, thanks to 25% thicker magnesium alloy and 94 weather-sealed points.
Shot After Shot After Shot
The NP-W126S lithium-ion battery in the X-H1 delivers up to 310 frames per charge when used in normal mode.
A newer model Fujifilm X-H2S was released in June 2022.

Fujifilm X-H1 Review
The Fujifilm X-H1 camera adds in-body stabilization to the X series and offers loads of tools for both photographers and videographers. We've recommended the Fujifilm X-T2 as our Editors' Choice in the high-end APS-C mirrorless camera category since it was introduced. Now it has a more premium sibling, the X-H1 ($1,899, body only), which uses the same sensor, but adds in-body stabilization and more serious video features. There are some ergonomic changes, as well including a deeper handgrip and the omission of an EV control dial. The X-H1 carries a $300 premium over the X-T2, and is close in price to the $1,999 full-frame Sony a7 III, which is just as capable in many ways. But if you've decided that the APS-C sensor size is a better fit for you, the X-H1 is the best option in its price bracket, and our Editors' Choice. Design The X-H1 doesn't look much different from the X-T2 at first glance. It's finished in black (we'll have to wait and see if it receives the Graphite Silver special edition treatment that Fujifilm has given to other marquee models), and is just slightly bigger all around, with a noticeably large...- Shoots at 8fps with mechanical shutter and 14fps with electronic shutter

Fujifilm X-H1 review: Does the most advanced X-series live up to its potential
In the X-H1, Fujifilm has created a worthy top-tier entry to its mirrorless X-series line-up. It's got the build quality, the style, the stabilisation and the speed to outshine many of its rivals. Finally 4K video gets an overhaul, too, to lure in a whole other audience.- Excellent image stabilisation (although it's lens dependent for the best performance
- Great image quality and detail potential (lens dependent
- Robust build quality with full manual controls at your fingertips
- LCD top plate is a rare sighting on a mirrorless camera
- Large and capable viewfinder,...
- Smallest autofocus size has issues acquiring focus
- Auto white balance and auto exposure sometimes off the mark
- No 3.5mm headphone jack without the battery grip
- Battery life should go further
- No image quality improvement over X-T2
- Panasonic G9 has greater video smarts
Fuji X-H1 Review
I must confess, I am a huge fan of the Fuji X-H1. In fact, when compared to all other APS-C cameras out there, I would say the X-H1 has the best balance of image quality, ergonomics and features, rightfully earning its title as the top APS-C mirrorless camera on the market.
Fujifilm X-H1 review
In-body image stabilisation is far from a new thing, so perhaps we shouldn’t give Fuji too much credit for including it here. Then again, what may be a small step for most mirrorless cameras represents a giant leap for the X-Series. Without it, the X-T2 was our favourite premium compact system camera; with it, the X-H1 is, well, even better than that. The other upgrades here, from the touchscreen to the higher-res viewfinder to the extra video capabilities, are all worth having, if not exactly game-changing. But the IBIS is exactly that. Yes, other cameras might already have it, but they don’t also have Fuji’s mastery of colour and autofocus to go with it. OK, so the payoff for the new tech is a bigger body, but if you’re the kind of pro or serious amateur who owns several hefty lenses, that won’t bother you. And let’s face it, if you’re a pro you can afford an X-T20 as a smaller back up anyway. Ultimately, Fuji has here crafted a wonderful all-rounder that masters almost any situation and could easily last you for years. Or at least until it releases something even better in 2019.- Image stabilisation works wonders
- Superb stills
- Video now among the best
- Bigger body won't please everyone
- Trigger-happy shutter button
- Pricey

One word, IBIS - it's truly effective and alone worth upgrading to from the XT2. Yes, it's heavier but the new grip makes the added weight a non-factor.
