We already told you that the Fujifilm X100F successor (X100V/X200) will come in 2020.
I am still working on the details, but I can now safely say, that the Fujifilm X100V (or X200) will come with a new lens (and of course we can expect the latest X-Trans IV sensor in it).
As an anonymous source also told me, “the old lens is already struggling to make use of the current sensor”.
I know you guys have questions about the new lens. And I am working on this. But for now I do not feel confident enough to give a final answer on this. But the work is in progress, so expect updates on this hopefully soon.
Thanks to the anonymous source, who contacted me yesterday confirming me it will have a new lens. I read also the rest of your message. I will make a routine checks, and share later on. Thanks a ton!
Looking at the Fujifilm X series camera release timeline we shared last year, and comparing it with the current rumors, we can say that it turns out to be pretty accurate… except for one camera: the Fujifilm X100F successor (may it be called X100V or X200 or whatever)
The X100 line had a refresh cycle of about 2 years, and given that the X100F was launched in January 2017, everybody speculates it will come very soon, at least within 2019.
But trusted sources now informed us, that the Fujifilm X100V (or X200) will be launched in 2020 only!
This time Fujifilm decided to wait longer than ever to give us a successor.
And by the way, if you want to know which is the Fujifilm facebook group with less gear talk, less gear shots, less gear discussions and mostly focussed on the art of photography and images, than this is definitely our Fujifilm X100 facebook group.
I think this is representative for the people, who buy this camera: never think about gear again. Get the camera, one lens only, and go out and shoot. It’s all about being focused on taking pictures.
