Highlights

X-H2

Sensor & Image Science: 40.2MP APS-C BSI CMOS sensor delivers exceptional detail and resolution for stills and 8K video.
Codecs & Formats: Internal 8K/30p recording and external Blackmagic RAW support for high-resolution workflows.
Dynamic Range: 13 stops of dynamic range for good highlight and shadow retention.

X-H2S

Sensor & Image Science: 26.1MP APS-C Stacked BSI CMOS sensor offers significantly faster readout speeds, reducing rolling shutter.
Codecs & Formats: Internal 4K up to 120p and 6.2K recording, with robust Apple ProRes internal options for professional workflows.
Dynamic Range: Approximately 14 stops of dynamic range with F-Log2 for greater grading flexibility.
Tools & Usability: Faster sensor readout enables blackout-free shooting, crucial for fast-paced photography and video.

The trade-off

Choosing the X-H2 means giving up the faster stacked sensor and higher frame rates of the X-H2S. Choosing the X-H2S means giving up the higher 40.2MP resolution and 8K/30p internal recording of the X-H2.
