Starting this coming Thursday, save BIG, and I mean REALLY BIG, on X-H1 kits or X-H1 kits with XF 16-55mm f/2.8 or XF 8-16mm f/2.8! Despite being “last generation”, the X-H1 is a fantastic camera and still the only X-series camera to have IBIS (in-body image-stabilization). While the new X-T30 and X-T3 might have a few…

Fujifilm’s X-H1 is, for X-system users, a groundbreaking new camera. I have been privileged to spend a fair bit of time with two different preproduction bodies, through several iterations of beta firmware, finally to production level v.1.0.0 firmware, which may or may not be the very final version the camera actually ships with on…
