Camera bodies
Fujifilm X-H2
40.2MP X-Trans CMOS 5 HR · 8K video · dual SD slots · pixel-shift multi-shot · 8-stop IBIS
The resolution body. 40 megapixels gives extreme cropping latitude and fine detail capture. The high-res sensor also means I can shoot a wider composition and reframe later without loss.
Primary uses: details, portraiture, still setups, anything needing maximum resolution.
Fujifilm X-H2S
26.1MP X-Trans CMOS 5 HS stacked · 40fps burst · deep-learning subject tracking · zero rolling shutter · dual SD slots
The speed body. The stacked sensor eliminates rolling shutter distortion entirely — critical for fast panning during recessionals and first dances.
Primary uses: ceremony, first dance, reception candids, recessional, fast or low-light coverage.
Fujifilm X-T4
26.1MP X-Trans CMOS 4 · 5-axis IBIS · classic exposure dials · dual SD slots
The backup body and secondary documentary angle. Physical dial controls mean aperture, shutter, and ISO can change without pulling my eye from the viewfinder.
