The kayaks coming over the falls were surprising, what a challenge. getting out with new camera in the conditions. As I only do stills, am happy to stay with my XT2, works for me but XH2 looks great. Loved the 3rd image.
Excellent video as always Ian. It was pretty much a given that you would go with the XH2. Pleasing that you have stuck with Fuji. I very rarely do video so for me, The xt3 is more than enough camera for my needs. I can see why you changed though. Some folk seem to want to spend there hard earned cash on the latest camera instead of concentrating on the actual image taking process. At the end of the day the camera is just a tool. Any reasonable camera can take a decent photo. Some of my favourite images have been taken on my phone. It just depends what you intend to do with your photos once edited. Cheers.
Fantastic video and images Ian. I was out in the rain yesterday and loved every minute of it, love those conditions because it brings mist and less people
Great choice for your shooting needs, Ian. I'm sure you're going to love this camera. Tough shooting but a great day to be out and that last waterfall and leaves shot was magnificent. Just want to say, I really appreciate your sincerity and down to earth approach portrayed in all of your vlogs. Keep it up!
Cracking selection of images Ian. Specs on the new camera look very impressive as do the images. I was at the waterfalls with Gareth Danks last week & and some others but left after the 1st waterfalls as I felt it was going to be a busy day with people so wanted some quiet photography. Ended up on the same part of the river (the Nedd) as your last image but way further up. atb Alan
Great effort out there in the elements. All stunning images however something even more stunning with the 3rd image on top of the falls. Always enjoy your videos Ian
Superb waterfall images Ian in difficult conditions, the shot at the top of the falls was superb and the one at the end with the leaves gives that autumn vibe. Re the 18-55 lens is that the kit lens? Thanks for getting out in the weather to record this video can’t have been easy Ian.
Some fresh water killed the shutter button of my XT2! Never had issue with my Sony a7rii or Nikon D610 when they took the rain. I will be careful after that for sure!
Your 3rd image was loverly! I am in the market to upgrade my XT3 (those 40mp are compelling for cropping). Just can't decide between the X-H2 or X-T5. Top LCD, and bigger grip vs 3 way tilt and old fashioned dials. Would be interesting to hear your views when you review the camera.
Great video as usual, Ian! I agree with Jon. The third shot is killer! Congrats on the new gear. I too picked up the XH2 but ended up returning it. I can attest that it is a SUPERB camera with stunning resolution. For me, it just wasn't a full fit. I needed it for my event shoots and it wasn't quite there with the burst mode. Looking forward to the XT5 debut.
It's been a good year for Fuji. That 40MP sensor looks amazing. I just upgraded my XT4 with an XH2s mainly for video and the eye AF seems a lot better so far. My XT3 is my main stills camera, but I'm thinking either an XH2 or XT5, not sure which one. I am surprised how nice the XH body is to shoot with even not having the XT dials, etc. That's going to be a tough choice. I may go with the XT5 just because the 3 way screen is my preference for a mainly stills camera.
Hello Ian Worth, when it comes to Fujifilm photography there are two people I enjoy watching; you and Omar Gonzales, and of course a few others as well. Ian if I may ask since you have been shooting with the Fuji XT3 and using various lense, would you mind to make a video to compare the two cameras photographically how the differ, the new one being a high resolution and the latter being a 26-megapixels? I specifically like to know if your previous lenses you used with the XT3 work as well with the XH2 that you are currently using. I could not find a video that gives me the comparison and the lens used that are already available, it seems that with the XH2 Fujifilm seems to emphasise the new lenses they have built that have such as 1.4 or 2.8 aperture to allow more light for the higher resolution sensor. At least this is how I understood. What you have shown what you have shot with the camera in your hands the images are excellent and you have a very good eye in your compositions. Looking forward to see more of your images with the new XH2. Cheers and happy shooting.
Excellent Video, Ian and quite a proof on Fuji's weatherresistance... Well, I was actually quite surprised that you went for the X-H2 instead of X-T5? I am mainly into fotography and therefore enjoy the classic dials and also not fully articulated rear display very much... I see you are stil using the mighty 2,8-4/18-55 lens which is not listed by Fuji with regards to full perfotmance with the 40MP Xtrans V processor. So if you consider doing a future review, I would be interested in your practical experience on the additional detailing been provided by the new sensor and the practical implications when using these older lenses since a lot of Fuji users will still want to continue using their 10-24, 18-55 and 16-80 zoom lenses. Thanks again, Bernd
I went for the x-h2 because I shoot as much video as I do stills and the x-h2 has a cf express card slot and internal pro res video recording which is essential for me when shooting video for clients. Previously I had to run my video through an Atomos recorder to get pro res. Now i can do it in camera which is a big help 👍 If I was just shooting stills, it would be the x-t5 every day of the week 👍👍 I think the 18-55 looks OK, the 10-24 looks great. I feel its clever marketing on fujis part. Obviously they want everyone to upgrade the glass as well. I should say though, the IQ is a lot better through my 50-140, but you would expect that given the price. I will be doing some thorough testing during the months ahead, so stay tuned 👍👍
@@ian_worth Thanks Ian, I will stay tuned. So far I am still quite happy with my X-H1/ X-E3 since I am mainly doing stills and look forward when the intial hype is over for a better AF, battery life. As a hobby enthusiast I am not so sure about the higher resolution, probably worth it for better details when reducing the a shot to 4x6MP and in order to be able to crop, but otherwise its a pain because of the shear amount of data processing and storage capacity been required. So far I am on 24MP JPEG&Raw (compressed) and storage demand really grew during the last 3 years...
One question, have they fixed the stupid self-timer that goes off for just about any reason. (I have a very battered XT2) certainly a baptism of Fire for the XH2.
What are your thoughts with viltrox 13mm f1.4? Does it somehow cross your mind to try or check? Epic landscape content as always,Ii love the 2nd waterfall photo!
Great video, love the shot with the leaves and the waterfall, Would like to know the lens you used throughout the video. Am interested in buying this camera for the higher res, and look forward to your thoughts in future videos.
I'm interested to see your journey with the XH2, I'm looking to upgrade from my X-T3 but I'll wait until the X-T5 is released before deciding between it and the XH2. Whats your thoughts on the XH2's image quality, dynamic range, low light/high ISO performance over the X-T3? Thanks again for the great content, I'm an amateur photographer and find your channel very informative.
Congratulations on your new camera! But what about the image quality with your old lenses? With the XT10-24 and the Xt 18-55? They are not recommended at Fuji for your camera and here in the German forums the XT 10-24 on the XH2 is criticized just at the edges of the quality. What experience have you had so far? Greetings Rüdiger
Glad you're running the XF 18-55 through its' paces on the X-H2 - I haven't tried mine yet before today. I was using it for video today and found that 18-55 footage was amazingly stable! The lens chatter and IS sound is completely inaudible with this lens on the X-H2, whereas I could hear it clearly in video footage on my X-Pro3.
The kayaks coming over the falls were surprising, what a challenge. getting out with new camera in the conditions. As I only do stills, am happy to stay with my XT2, works for me but XH2 looks great. Loved the 3rd image.
Many thanks 😁👍
Epic waterfalls indeed! Goodonya for sticking through the rain. Great video Ian. Cheers!
Thanks 👍 👍🙏
Absolute epic waterfall 3 composition 🙌

So true Steve, I wouldn't have upgraded had it not been for the high shutter count of my x-h1 and the better video specs 👍
Fantastic video and images Ian. I was out in the rain yesterday and loved every minute of it, love those conditions because it brings mist and less people
Great video Ian! Such amazing shots. Love waterfalls
Glad you enjoyed 👍👍

Thanks Alan, nice and quiet when i was there, mainly due to the rain lol 👍👍
Great job! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching! 🙏🙏
The third shot gets my applause. Thanks for having the patience and endurance to make this video.
Many thanks 😁👍
Great effort out there in the elements. All stunning images however something even more stunning with the 3rd image on top of the falls. Always enjoy your videos Ian
Thanks Andrew, yeah the 3rd was definitely my favourite too 👍👍
Great vid Ian. If I still lived in the uk I would have loved have joined you on your workshop
I will be running it again next autumn if you're over this way Graham 👍👍
Great images Ian, especially the last one. Great choice on the camera too.
Many thanks 😁👍
Great job Ian once again. I just got one myself a few weeks ago, will be very interested to see how you get on. Good Luck.
Very nice, Ian under trying conditions
Thanks 👍
Look like that new camera is going to be a gem for you. Great test!!
I think so too! Many thanks 😁👍

Maybe the x-h2s would be better if you are looking for fast continuous shooting 👍
@@ian_worth You may be right, but going to hold off just a bit longer!

Agree. Hopefully X-T5 goes back to X-T3's style of screen, or maybe borrows the sony's hybrid tilt/flip on a7R V.
@@luxdalet Fuji Rumors says XT5 will have XT3's screen. I ordered an XH2, so we'll see how that goes until the XT5 shows up...🙂

One of my favourite places for waterfalls go there regular
Its awesome, some great woodland too 👍👍
Great video, love the shot with the leaves and the waterfall, Would like to know the lens you used throughout the video. Am interested in buying this camera for the higher res, and look forward to your thoughts in future videos.
I was using the 18-55 😁👍
was that the kit lens Ian?

Awesome, i was torn between the xh2 and the xh2s but the higher resolution and cheaper price of the h2 was a no brainer for me. 👍
The camera is water sealed but what lenses do you use as my lenses are not water sealed.
Mine neither ha ha. I've never had a problem with the 18-55 in bad weather.
waht camera bag are you using?thanks
it the lowe pro 55l photosportpro aw

even i am curious to know how they perform with this sensor
More on this soon when I've had a proper chance to test things 👍👍😁

I've got too much investment in lenses to switch brands lol 😁👍
just wonder which tripod are you using right now.
its by sunwayfoto 👍👍 here's a review video of it th-cam.com/video/59v9B0zSIbw/w-d-xo.html
great test of the new camera :-)
if you get a chance, try to reach Sgwd Einon Gam - that's a real treat
Hey Ian - how did you end up fairing with the Tamron 18-300? I’ve seen mixed reviews.
I ended up selling it. Just wasn't really up to the job IQ wise.
