Fuji Japan announces the new X100s and X20 release info.

Share

Fuji Japan (translation here) announced that they delayed the official X100s and X20 camera release from February 16th to  February 23th. Not really a big delay. It’s is interesting to hear that Fuji said that the cause fo the delay is the unexpected high demand for both cameras. Good news for Fuji :)

Fuji X100s preorder search links at [shopcountry 6127].
Fuji X20 preorder search links at [shopcountry 6687].

And by the way, if yous till care about the “older” Fuji X100 you can grab it for $842.07 at [shoplink 6691 ebay]BigValue (Click here)[/shoplink].

Fuji announces the F900EXR and FinePix S4800 cameras.

Share

Fuji just announced two new compact cameras. The FinePix S4800 superzoom with 30x zoom lens (Press text at Dpreview) and the WiFi-enabled F900EXR with EXR-CMOS II (Press text at DPreview).

Not really a big news and honestly also other companies didn’t announce exciting cameras for the coming CP+ show in Japan (starting tomorrow). Rumors say that major company announcements will come in April only but I don’t think Fuji will announce a new X camera by than (Sony-Panasonic-Olympus-Samsung will). Although, I would be happy to see a new X-PRO2 with new EVF, faster AF and why not, a new generation X Trans sensor….I know I have to stop dreaming :)

On top you see the actual real Fuji lens roadmap.

FujiRumors is now a growing community and it may be interesting to know from you what kind of new Fuji XF lens you wish to be made by Fuji. What are your secret dreams? Just comment this post and add the lens you would love to see (and buy) from Fuji. I will collect your suggestions and create a POLL to see what kind of lens Fuji should make as soon as possible. To make it easier to copy and paste your suggestions inside the poll please use that style to express the lens specs…Example “12mm f/2.0” or “14-35mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS“. Thanks! UPDATE: please suggest lenses that are not on roadmap yet! :)

Got it? Than let’s start! I am sure Fuji is curious to read your suggestions too :)
