Fujifilm X-H1:

  • 5.5-Stops In-Body Image Stabilization. Compatible with all XF and XC lenses.
  • New High-Resolution EVF – Magnification ratio of 0.75x and 3.69M dot resolution. The VF display is extraordinarily smooth, with a display time lag of just 0.005 sec and a frame rate of 100 fps.
  • Comprehensive video features – new external film Simulation ideal for shooting movies, f-log SD card recording and 1080/120P high-speed video mode (1/2, 1/4 and 1/5 speed).

Fujinon MKX 18-55mmT2.9:

  • 22 glass elements in 17 groups, with six Super ED Lens elements and two ED Lens elements.
  • T2.9 aperture across the entire zoom range which facilitates the increasingly popular style of bokeh effect with shallow depth-of-field.
  • The focus ring features a rotation of a full 200 degrees to facilitate precise focusing. All operation Rings have a gear pitch of 0.8M, the same as all other Fujinon Cine lenses.
  • The front focusing group of lens elements and the zooming group of lens elements are driven independently to suppress focus shift while zooming, which eliminates the need to re-focus after zooming.
