Fujifilm X-H2S vs X-Pro3
The X-H2S leads on more headline specs, but the X-Pro3 counters on a hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder and a lighter 497 g body.
The short version
The Fujifilm X-H2S and Fujifilm X-Pro3 are Fujifilm APS-C bodies from different lines — the X-H and the X-Pro. The X-H2S is the newer of the two, arriving in 2022. At launch the X-H2S was $2,499 and the X-Pro3 $1,799, making the X-Pro3 the more affordable of the two.
On paper the X-H2S is the stronger body of the two. It gives you 40 fps continuous shooting, AI subject-detection AF, and 6K/30p video, with a few smaller wins on top of that.
The X-Pro3 isn't far behind. It hits back with a hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder and a lighter 497 g body.
So which one? If you want 40 fps continuous shooting, get the X-H2S. If a hybrid optical/electronic viewfinder is closer to what you actually need, the X-Pro3 is the smarter buy. And the X-Pro3 costs less — $1,799 at launch.
