I stumbled on a website that generates random film simulations recipes out of 183,321,919,779 different options. If you want, you can try it out at runleveltwo.
It makes no sense, so that’s the right day to publish it. ;)
In the video above I share what I think about the four “disruptive” Fujifilm cameras coming in 2023 according to Fujifilm Spain.
Time for a reality check!

Fellow Fujifilm Film Simulation member Cris created his own film simulation recipe using ChatGPT.
Today I asked ChatGPT to create a Fuji Film Recipe for the GFX50R that mimic’d Kodak Tri-X Pushed One Stop and it created me a pretty respectable emulation.
If you want to check out the results, go to the dedicated post in the film simulation group.
SonyAlphaRumors guy Andrea found this so cool that he used the ChatGPT to create his own recipe on his personal Fujifilm GFX100S. He shared the results in the video you can see above.
Good that Fujifilm cameras have so many aspects you can fine-tune directly in camera (Clarity, Grain, etc). ;)
Interestingly it works also if you ask to emulate the film on a Sony cameras. I hope Andrea will compare the results between Sony and Fuji and tell us which ones are closer to the real film.
As far as I can see from the few samples visible on the film simulation group and at Andrea’s YouTube channel, the recipe they got are different to the ones of well known Fuji X Weekly.
Since there are many people and websites offering film simulations recipes (for example OneCameraOneLens), maybe the software looks at all film simulations recipes with the same name and makes a mix out of them, or maybe it really just guesses the best settings based on the characteristics of the film.
I don’t know how it works, but it’s curious you can create such simulations also via ChatGPT.

Quick update regarding the Fujifilm X-S20.
We know the Fujifilm X Summit in April has been canceled and the next X Summit will take place in May.
But this hasn’t changed what we told you already a long time ago: the next Fujifilm X series camera to come will be the Fujifilm X-S20. Sure, this means that in theory it is still possible we will get a new GFX camera before the X-S20 or along with it. But as for X series, the X-S20 is next.
So when will it come? Could Fujifilm announce the X-S20 in April, just don’t make an X Summit about it?
Well, yes they definitely could. Not all Fujifilm cameras get their X summit. But since the X-S20 is a very important camera for Fujifilm, I believe they’ll honor it with an X-Summit. It’s not a rumor, but a speculation. And I’d be very surprised if I was wrong.
The second rumor instead is a trusted rumor: the Fujifilm X-S20 will use the newer NP-W235 battery. I hope Fujifilm will be able to keep the camera body super small like on the current X-S10 body despite the new larger battery.

With the Fujifilm X-E4 now discontinued after 2 years only and hardly available at all over the last 2 years, it’s time to talk quickly about the future of the Fujifilm X-E line.
Is there any hope that the line will continue.
In the video above I will list you two reasons why we should be optimistic about a Fujifilm X-E5, but also mention a few points that could induce Fujifilm to cancel the line.
