The WR kit

The Weather Resistant kit, Fujifilm X-T1 + XF 18-135mm is in stock at AmazonUS, BHphoto and Adorama. It’s in stock also in Europe, and in UK you can get it with £100 cashback at WexUK.

The X30

This time we don’t have to scan day after day all the stores to see where the latest Fuji gear is finally in stock. No, this time shipping proceeded super-smoothly, at least in USA, where the Fujifilm X30 is already widely available. Let’s see if the Fujifilm X100T, the graphite X-T1 , the XF50-140F2.8 WR and the 56mmF/1.2 APD will also be in stock everywhere in USA that quick.

You can find both Fujifilm X30 colours available in stores like BHphoto, AmazonUS, Adorama and BestBuy.

It’s a bit harder to find in Europe. Stores like PCHstore, AmazonDE and AmazonUK have some available, but still nothing at WexDE, WexUK & CO.

THE RUMOR

As you know, in early June I told you about an updated 35mm f/1.4. It has become quiet around this rumor, so that I thought that Fuji has dropped original plans. But now an anonymous source told me that the 35mmMKII could be announced early 2015.

THE PATENT
[UDPATE: As JoHo said in the comments: The US patent is a (presumably just translated) version of a patent that has been filed in December 2011 in Japan (see priority date). So it is unlikely that it refers to a new design.]

ORIGINAL POST: And this could be another hint: here is a patent (click here) showing a new 35mm f/1.4 lens. So there were/are definitely plans to upgrade it. Early rumors said that the upgrade would basically be just about a faster AF speed (and not weather sealing).

But be careful: a rumor + a patent are still not a fact! So take it with the usual grain of salt for now. Especially since at photokina a manager said that the 35 ver.2 could eventually come after they have released all the other lenses…. but I remember managers denying an update to the X100 just a few months before the X100S was announced, so who knows…

Don’t worry, I’ll do my homeworks and hopefully be able to update you soon with something more reliable.
