When comparing the video capabilities of the FUJIFILM X-T5 and X-H2S cameras, there are a few factors to consider:
resolution
The FUJIFILM X-T5 can capture 4K video up to 30p, while the X-H2S provides 4K video up to 60p for ultra-smooth footage. For slow motion, the X-H2S also offers Full HD video at up to 240 fps compared to the X-T5’s maximum of 120 fps. If high resolution, cinematic video is a priority, the X-H2S has a clear advantage.
Recording Limit
The X-T5 has a 15 minute recording limit for 4K/30p footage, while the For events, interviews, or other long-form capture, the X-H2S’s extended recording time is useful. Both cameras can record to SD cards, though the X-H2S supports high-performance CFexpress cards as well for fast write speeds.
autofocus
The X-H2S’s hybrid autofocus system with 425 selectable points provides fast, accurate focusing for both stills and video. The X-T5 also has a hybrid AF system but with fewer selectable points. For run-and-gun shooting or filming active subjects, the X-H2S’s more advanced focusing capabilities offer an advantage.
In-Body Image Stabilization

For the X-T5, lens options with OIS are more limited. The lack of in-body stabilization is a downside for both models compared to competitors.
In summary, while the X-T5 is capable of high quality 4K video, the FUJIFILM For amateur and professional videographers alike, the X-H2S is the superior choice.
