I've been using Nikon gear for wildlife photography for many years. We had an overseas trip planned and I decided to buy a Fuji X-H2S with 150-600mm lens as a travel combo. We only had a 7kg carry on limit on the aircraft.
So far I'm happy with the Fuji, sure it has a few quirks. One in particular I needed to do a search on the internet to figure out. I couldn't for the life of me change the metering mode, there is no dedicated switch as there is on the X-T5, however there is an assigned switch. For whatever reason only known to those who created the firmware, if you have, in my case bird detection on, you cannot change metering mode.
The combo is light weight, AF is for the most part okay, although I still get a number of out of focus images even though the body shows focus has been acquired. Eye detection works well, and it also works okay on mammals and insects when set for birds.
