However, concerns about autofocus reliability and overheating issues linger, prompting mixed feelings among users who rely heavily on these features in professional settings.
"The autofocus was set to center point continuous... Static shots holding the gimbal for an interview you can see the AF pulsating back and forth."
-- User experiencing AF challenges during a commercial shoot with the X-H2S
"Man oh man this thing is incredible... the colors are just amazing coming out of that fancy-ass stacked sensor."
-- User expressing satisfaction after first use of the X-H2S
"The X-H2S feels like a tool. I know it's better all around but it doesn't have me all excited like I was."
-- User reflecting on the transition from X-T4 to X-H2S and the change in experience
"If you don't need crazy good eye AF/tracking then X-H2/X-T5 is fine. If you need the best eye detect/tracking AF from Fuji then it's the X-H2S."
-- Comment highlighting the difference in AF capabilities based on user needs
"I've been using it for street stuff... but it cannot land focus at all. Eye autofocus... missed focus."
