Fujifilm has launched today Fujifilm X-H1 mirrorless digital camera in the X Series. This camera is the first X Series model to include the latest 5-axis in-body image stabilization (IBIS), which has a maximum of 5.5 stops and also has ETERNA mode, a new film simulation mode ideal for shooting movies. The X-H1 is priced at Rs.149,999/- (Body Only) and Rs.172,999/- (Body and Battery Grip).
This camera is also compatible with MKX18-55mmT2.9 and MKX50-135mmT2.9 professional cinema lenses incorporating the X mount which are scheduled for release in May 2018. The new camera and lens combinations will provide outstanding image production and will be ideal for shooting a moving subject in sports photography as stated by the company.
This camera is the first in an X Series to use internal in-body image stabilization (IBIS) system which harnesses three axial accelerometers, three axial Gyro sensors, and a specially developed dual-processor. Combined, this achieves the high speed of approximately 10,000 calculations per second. When unified with compensating mechanisms, results in uncompromising image quality and precision with very high performance such as 5-axis image stabilization is possible with all XF and XC lenses. Moreover, up to a maximum of 5.5 stops image stabilization is possible when the camera is used with all XF lenses that do not include optical image stabilization technology.
In addition to the camera’s dust-resistant, water-resistant properties, and the ability to operate in temperatures down to -10°C, the camera also uses a 25% thicker magnesium alloy compared to the X-T2. Fujifilm has also modified the structure for attaching the mount, resulting in a more compact size and lighter weight body that maintains high precision and strong resistance to impact shock torsion and other sources of deformation.
This is the first camera in X Series to come with flicker reduction mode which improves AF algorithms and allows for stable exposure during burst shots even under fluorescent and mercury lighting. The X-H1 is the first camera in the X Series to include ETERNA, a new film simulation ideal for shooting movies. This mode simulates cinematic film, creating understated colors and rich shadow tones, greatly enhancing creative freedom during post-processing. The camera’s video image quality has been improved through the new ability to record a high bit rate of 200 Mbps.
