Upcoming “Very Small and All-Digital” Camera to be Part of Instax Family and Cost $100

We told you that Fujifilm will launch a very small digital camera in September.

We confirm it will be an “all digital” camera, but it won’t be part of the X (or GFX) series family.

In fact, we have been told (thanks) it will be part of the Fujifilm Instax family and cost about $100.

You’re welcome to speculate how a “very small all-digital Instax camera” would look like and how it would work.

TO THE SOURCE: thanks a lot… and feel free to share more details about this camera if you have some.

Fujifilm to Produce 1,500 Fujifilm GFX100 II per Month Initially

The Fujifilm GFX100 II will start shipping in late September.

Hopefully there will be enough samples around, because initially Fujifilm will produce 1,500 Fujifilm GFX100 II samples a month.

Now, I have no idea how pre-orders are going, but 1,500 units a month does not sound like a whole lot of cameras.

But what I know is that the Fujifilm GFX100 II is a fantastic camera and if it gets the success that it deserves, then I am afraid that there could be shortages with the shipping.

RUMOR: Fujifilm to Launch a “Very Small Digital Camera” in September

A source has contacted us (thanks) and told us we are not yet done with announcements in September.

In fact, Fujifilm will launch a “very small digital camera” in September.

And yes, I’ve used the silhouette of this camera here for the image above. But I took it randomly because it’s the smallest digital Fujifilm camera I can think of.
