It’s Over my Friends: No More X or GFX Related Announcements This Year
Yes I know.
I am aware that in the first half of 2023 Fujifilm has registered a camera with the code name FF230002.
And I am aware that never before Fujifilm needed more than 4/6 months to release a camera after its registration has been spotted.
This is why 99,9% of people out there are so sure there will be another Fujifilm announcement this year.
Maybe in November, as that’s a great month to launch new gear (Fuji’s most important camera has been launched November last year for example).
But this ain’t gonna happen, according to our sources.
In fact, we have been told (thanks!!!), that as far as 2023 goes, this was it. There is no new gear coming in 2023.
I mean, yes, the two GF tilt shift lenses still have to hit the market. But of course our sources mean that there won’t be any further announcements this year.
This means that we will also NOT get the next Fujinon XF lens that we already rumored a couple of weeks ago, in 2023.
So all we got (and will get) in 2023 is:
- Fujifilm X-S20
- Fujifilm GFX100II
- Fujinon XF8mmF3.5
- Fujinon GF55mmF1.7
- Fujinon GF30mmF5.6 Tilt Shift
- Fujinon GF110mmF5.6 Tilt Shift
Some great stuff dropped in 2023 for both systems, but certainly there was more to rejoice for GFX users rather than X series users this year.
But before the X series users start moaning, just a quick reminder on what we got in 2022:
- Fujifilm X-T5
- Fujifilm X-H2
- Fujifilm X-H2s
- Fujinon XF 30mmF2.8 Macro
- Fujinon XF 56mm f/1.2 R WR
- Fujinon XF 150-600mm f/5.6-8
- Fujinon XF 18-120mm f/4
Sure, we always wish for more. But over the last 2 years I think we can agree that there has been quite some decent stuff for both systems.
And what about 2024?
Well, for that, my friends, you’ll have to follow FujiRumors.
