Re: Will XT6 finally catch up to Sony, Canon and Nikon with AF.
Basically, if you are shooting a whole lot of high-quality video, and that’s your main thing, you’re probably just want to get a different camera. Simple, no question.
Or still photographs, even typically use and burst mode, there is literally no problem at all.

The Xh2s likewise, and still gets hot doing all the processing by all accounts.

Its very unlikely that the X-H2S AF processing causes overheating.
Why not? What else is happening to produce heat? Why do computers have large fans on processors?
No good just denying it without reasoning, there is nothing going on in a digital camera to produce heat except the processors for display and function.

Mine doesn't get hot shooting stills and the only reports I've seen of overheating have either been in very hot environments or shooting long high-res videos.
My reasoning is that the processing required for autofocus just doesn't stress the processor enough to overheat the camera.
And my computer doesn't have a large fan on its processors even though its capable of doing a lot more work than camera AF.
