Fuji manager interview: We are not selling our sensors to other companies. And we have the tech to go Full Frame.

The Spanish website DSLRmagazine (translation here) interviewed the Fuji managers MR. Hiroshi Kawahara and Yuto Nakanishi. Here are some interesting info:

– The new Zeiss X mount lenses will definitely be on market within this year (Editor’s note: The 12mm f/2.8, 32mm f/1.8 and 50mm f/2.8 with a price of around 1.000 Euro.)
– For now we do not plan to make prime lenses with OIS. But it doens’t mean we are not never going to do such lenses.
– We have the technology and knowledge to make a Full Frame X system but this doens’t mean we will do it.
– We will not outsource or sell our sensors to third party companies.

That was more or less the most interesting part of the interview. I think it’s good Fuji is keeping all the X-Trans tech for them self. It is one of the main strengths of the X-system and it would make no sense to sell it to other companies!
