Embargo or not, some store started shipping the Fujifilm X-Pro2 already (see post here).

So high time to go through the Fujifilm X-Pro2 Manual… and since it’s still not available officially, you can download it now here on FujiRumors dropbox (you do not have to sign in to dropbox to download the file).

The manual is the final and official one… it’s just not online at the moment… except here on FujiRumors ;)

Thanks for the file to George Norman (Instagram @georgenormanphoto) and Craig Whitehead (Instagram @fujixphoto)

RUMOR :: Fujinon XF23mmF2 will come this year (even before the 120mmF2.8)

ddo

Fuji Managers said it here: “Customers are requesting more compact lenses. Our 35mm F2 is one example. So we may need to supplement this lens [with others of this kind].”

And tell me… over the last few years, which has been the most requested compact lens by the FujiRumors community in different Polls we have launched on this blog? You got it… it’s the Fujinon XF23mmF2! Now guess what? It seems Fujifilm listened (and you know they read FujiRumors).

According to our reliable sources, the XF23mmF2 (which is still not in the roadmap), will be launched this year… and probably even before the XF120mm (which is in the roadmap)!

So it’s time for me to update again the rumored-lens-roadmap.

more is coming… so stay tuned... ;)

^ X-T1, XF16mmF1.4 R WR, f/1.4, Capture One Pro

Fuji’s latest lens addition has “high-end” written all over it. The XF16mmF1.4 R WR is a fast, weather- and dust-sealed wide-angle prime lens with Nano-GI coating (to eliminate flare and ghosting), a 0.21x magnification close-up capability with a minimum focus distance of only 15 cm (thanks to two floating focus groups) and nine aperture blades for a smooth bokeh with circular blur discs.

The lens also features two aspherical elements and two ED (extra low-dispersion) elements that minimize spherical and chromatic aberrations to surprisingly low levels and deliver corner-sharp images even at the widest aperture setting of f/1.4:

Fujifilm X-PRO2 with 4K and new processor EXR III (trusted Japanese source)

photo PRO2 EXRIII_zpshysklldy.jpg

Let’s start the week with a fresh rumor update coming from our top Japanese source. The source contacted me this weekend to let us know that:

  • Fuji indeed plans to launch a 4K capable X-PRO2

  • The Fujifilm X-PRO2 will feature a new and faster processor (EXR III)

We know from Fuji engineers here that X-TRANS sensor requires a lot processing power when shooting video. The current EXR II processor apparently has some difficulties to calculate all the video-data, and this is a reason why the huge advantage of the X-Trans sensor to mitigate moiree in stills doesn’t apply to video. A new and faster EXR III processor could help to sort out this issue.

A couple of days ago I asked over at the FR-facebook page here, if you are excited about the possible 4K capability of the X-PRO2… well, maybe some of you might be surprised with what the majority of followers answered. Check it out here.

stay tuned,
