GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Sports, Wildlife & Professional Video — X-H2S (2022): The fastest Fujifilm ever made — 40fps, 4K/120p, and subject-detection AF that redefines what APS-C can do for action photography.
Street, Travel & Everyday Photography — X100F (2017): The X100F is the camera that made the X100 series legendary — 24MP X-Trans III, a hybrid viewfinder, and the best fixed 35mm compact lens available.
Who should buy what
X-H2S (2022)
- Sports and wildlife photographers who want mirrorless AF performance without full-frame prices
- Fujifilm videographers who need 4K/120p and internal ProRes in a compact body
- X-T5 owners who prioritise speed and video over resolution
- Professionals who need weather sealing down to -10°C and deep-grip ergonomics for heavy lenses
X100F (2017)
- Street photographers who want a discreet, tactile camera with a fixed 35mm lens
- Travel photographers who prefer one lens and minimal kit
- Fujifilm fans who want the X100 experience at a lower cost than the X100V or VI
- Photographers who value the hybrid OVF/EVF for a rangefinder-like shooting style
Quick take: The x-h2s has the highest resolution at 26mp; the x100f is the most affordable; only the x-h2s is weather sealed. Scroll down for the full spec breakdown.
