Hm… I must admit, after an extremely busy summer with 170 articles and rumors written in the last 68 days (as well as thousands of emails), I feel just a little bit worn out ;) .

But don’t worry, a dangerous mix of excitement and coffee is pushing me towards the grand final, on September 7, when we will officially see…

• Fujifilm X-E3
• Fujinon XF 80mm F2.8 Macro
• Fujinon GF 45mm F2.8
• new lens roadmaps
• new firmware updates

I don’t expect more, but hey, it’s Fujifilm, so surprises are still possible… with the X-T2S high on the “surprise list”.

However, I owe you still the time, so here it is:

Fujifilm will announce it all at 02:00 AM New York time (08:00 AM Berlin Time).

Regular FujiRumors won’t be surprised, since we leaked the X-E3 specs already. But it’s great to have confirmation from Japan, as usual nokishita.

On Twitter, nokishita also mentions:

“With a new product is released new firmware on X and G mounting new roadmap and X-series cameras also.”

Regarding the firmware, we already told you that the X-Pro2 for example will get 4K video and tethering.

• X-E 3
• 24.3 million pixels “X-Trans CMOS III”
• X-Processor Pro
• 3 type 104 million dots touch panel liquid crystal
• 4K movie shooting
• X series first Bluetooth connection compatible
• “Touch Function” (Japanese name unknown) loaded. You can recall the preset function by flick operation up and down, left and right
• Size: 121.3 x 73.9 x 42.7 mm
• Weight: 337 g
• Color: Black / Silver
• Kit: Body · XF 18-55 mm lens kit
• Expected release date: September 28, 2017
• Mass store sales price (tax included): Body 123,660 yen, lens kit 166,860 yen
• Metal hand grip MHG-XE 3 and bottom leather case BLC-XE 3 will also be released on September 28

And more high resolution images via digicame-info, including some info:

– X Mount Lens New Road Map
– G Mount Lens New Road Map
– New firmware of X series camera
– X RAW Studio software development

When X – E 3 is a black body, the impression is quite different from silver body. XF 80 mm F 2.8 is expensive as a lens of this class, and the size seems to be large, but it seems that it can be expected for that much.

Also, as rumored, a new roadmap for X mounts is likely to be made public as well. I am also looking forward to the new lens roadmap of G mount.

In addition, since the above price is the price of a mass merchandise shop with points, it seems that at the lowest price store it will be cheaper by 10% than this.

Now also the rest of the Fujifilm products, that will be announced tomorrow, September 7, have been leaked at the Japanese site nokishita.

Of course there will be a great, fast, and non stop LIVE BLOGGING here on Fujirumors :)

You get a better view of the X-E3 (higher resolution as well as X-E2 size comparison) at the X-E3 images we leaked some time ago.

Also, as rumored here on Fujirumors, the XF80mm will hit the market in October.

Fujinon XF33mmF1.0

The Fujinon XF 33mm F1.0, or as some of you guys call it here on FujiRumors, the “Full Frame Killer“, has such a long rumor story, that it’s better to make super-quick summary for all new FR-readers, before we move on to the next chapter.

If you’ve followed the 33/1 story since its start and are familiar with it, then scroll down to “The Hope” section.

The Rise

I already told you here and here, that Fujifilm will launch a nice kaizen firmware update for the Fujifilm X-Pro2, which will bring, among the others, 4K video to Fuji’s rangefinder flagship.

Well, I hear tethering should also come to the Fujifilm X-Pro2 via firmware update :)

Good times are coming… stay tuned on FujiRumors via Facebook, RSS-feed and Twitter… the party is on September 7… and I’m ready for non stop live blogging session here on FujiRumors :)
