Bought an X-H1 for gig photography - very impressed (tips welcome!)
As the title says, I recently got an X-H1 as I’ve really been enjoying shooting local gigs and I wanted something a bit more rugged than my X-T30ii with IBIS.
I am very happy with the results. Being able to shoot as low as 1/30 at f2.8 and still get sharp shots is a game changer in low light. And surprisingly, the high iso noise seems less noticeable on the older sensor.
Obviously the size is a setback in most settings (the X-H series is probably the worst option in the Fuji X lineup for inconspicuous street photography) but for this use it’s an absolute tank - both in form and function.
That said, does anyone have any tips for focusing while lighting is quickly changing? I found manual works well for less agile performers but I’ve found AF challenging when there’s a lot of movement and lighting changes. As we all know, AF isn’t Fuji’s selling point so I’m not expecting miracles.
