The short version

The Fujifilm X-Pro3 and Fujifilm X-H1 are Fujifilm APS-C bodies from different lines — the X-Pro and the X-H. The X-Pro3 is the newer of the two, arriving in 2019. At launch the X-Pro3 was 1,799 USD and the X-H1 1,899 USD, making the X-Pro3 the more affordable of the two.

On paper the X-Pro3 is the stronger body of the two. It gives you 26.1 MP of resolution, 11 fps continuous shooting, and face/eye-detection AF, with a few smaller wins on top of that.

The X-H1 isn't far behind. It hits back with 5.5-stop in-body stabilization.

So which one? If you want 26.1 MP of resolution, get the X-Pro3. If 5.5-stop in-body stabilization is closer to what you actually need, the X-H1 is the smarter buy. And the X-Pro3 costs less — 1,799 USD at launch.
