Fujifilm South Africa has launched the mirrorless Fujifilm X-H2S, boasting a new fifth generation sensor and processor.
The new stacked-layer back-illuminated 26,16MP X-Trans CMOS 5 HS sensor is capable of reading signals four-times faster than the previous sensor, and the high-speed X-Processor 5 boasts double the processing speed of the previous version.
Fujifilm’s new processor not only significantly improves AF accuracy and speed, but also enables filming 4:2:2 10bit video at 6,2K/30P and 4K/120P, a first for the Fujifilm range.
The new image processor features a subject-detection AF function, developed with Deep Learning technology. It detects and automatically tracks not only the human face / eyes but also animals, birds, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, airplanes and trains to maintain autofocus, even in low-light conditions.
The camera further controls phase-detection pixels independently from image display during the burst mode. With triple the number of calculations in phase detection information compared to the X-T4, the camera has the ability to focus at incredibly high-speeds between individual frames. This allows for accurate focussing even during high-speed continuous shooting.
It is also capable of blackout-free bursts of up to 40 frames-per-second. Furthermore, when setting the high-speed burst shooting mode to 30 frames per second (JPEG) or 20 frames per second (RAW), the camera can shoot over 1000 frames continuously using the electronic shutter.
