The Yongnuo 33mm f/1.4 was first teased in April 2023.
Now we got the first images shared by various accounts at the Chinese social media Weibo, mounted on a Nikon Zfc.
Competition will be tough for the new Yongnuo:

A FR-reader found some clues as far as the bot goes that people used to purchase multiple Fujifilm X100VI limited edition.
The scalpers seem to indicate in their Discord server that their checkout software (bot) secured 92% of orders on day 1.
This assertion appears credible, especially considering the notifications of successful purchases visible in the Discord server. In fact, as shown by the video below, hundreds of X100VI LE units seem to have been ordered through this bot.
One guy claims that he was able to grab four X100VI LE and he was planing to snatch a 5th model (screenshot above).
Also, below I will share a video that shows which software was used and how it works.
The video shows the time stamp of when those hundreds of orders were placed (for March 21/22). As far as the order for March 23 goes, I share them as screenshot here and here.
My hope is that the time stamp will help Fujifilm to track down every single scalper, cancel their order and find a better way to distribute the X100VI LE to make sure it falls into the hands of enthusiasts and not scalpers.
New images of the Viltrox 56mm f/1.7 and Viltrox 40mm f/2.5 are now appearing on Chinese social media Weibo. They include some sample images, but they are low resolution.
You can see them all in this article.
Both lenses should be announced in April as we reported here.
Viltrox X mount lenses are sold at BHphoto here, Amazon here and Adorama here.

Well, I guess that after all the rumors we saw this one coming. But at least now it is official in terms of “rumors”.
The Fujinon XF16-50mmF2.8-4.8 will be announced together with the Fujifilm X-T50.
So the Fujifilm X-T50 will be the first camera to be offered bundled with the new Fujinon XF16-50mmF2.8-4.8.

Most people and all websites are calling the successor to the Fujifilm X-T30II the “Fujifilm X-T40“.
However, according to our sources, there will be no Fujifilm X-T40, because the X-T30II successor will be called Fujifilm X-T50.
That makes sense to me, because it belongs to the 5th generation Fujifilm cameras (with 5th generation processor, AF goodness etc).
And yes, I know. The X-H2, X-H2S and X-S20 are also part of the 5th generation Fujifilm lineup, and yet they don’t feature the numeral “5” in their names. However, transitioning directly from X-H1/X-S10 to X-H5/X-S50 would likely have been too big of jump. In this case, it makes sense to maintain the “2” designation, indicating the second generation of this series.
So, from now, shall we call it the Fujifilm X-T50.
The Fujifilm X-T50 will be the next APS-C camera that Fujifilm will launch.
