Not really true. It has the modern sony body design, the modern sony menu system, etc, and there aren't many low megapixel, low light video monster bodies in its class on the market.
It's a very specialized tool, though, that has no real relevance in a discussion with the X-HS2. Like you said, that's the A7IV's role.
It does from a video feature support standard. The X-H2S has a ton of video features and support for pretty much every standard out there, far more than the A7 IV. Also, the A7 IV’s sensor is nowhere near as advanced as the X-H2S sensor.
If you look at the A7S III vs A7 IV chart below, you can see that the X-H2S either matches or exceeds the A7S III and both are significantly better than the A7 IV for video. On top of that the A7S3 only supports ProRes Raw, where as the Fuji supports ProRes Raw and Black Magic Raw.
Another area the Fuji matches or exceeds the A7S3 is rolling shutter performance and the A7 IV cannot match either. The A7S3 can achieve 8.4ms and that’s impressive! The Fuji can achieve a full sensor readout speed of just over 5ms for 4K UHD 60P and 3.9ms for 120P. The A7 IV not close to either of these (26.8ms) so, I’m not sure why anyone would try to compare this to the A7 IV.
Personally, I wouldn’t spend the $3500 on the A7S III if I were a hybrid shooter that wanted the best video and stills money can buy, in a single package (obviously that would be an A1 or Z9, but on a budget it would be the X-H2s IMHO).
