Fujinon XF7mm F4, XF8mm F3.5, XF9mm F2.8 and XF10mm F2.8 Patents Found

Share

Back at the X Summit in May, Fujifilm announced the Fujinon XF 8mm f/3.5.

FujiRumors already compared the XF8mmF3.5 in size to other Fujinon lenses here.

It is no surprise that during the development for this lens Fujifilm made several versions of it, and those versions now appeared as patents.

  • XF7mm F4
  • XF8mm F3.5
  • XF9mm F2.8
  • XF10mm F2.8

Looks like Fujifilm went for the golden middle: not the widest nor the longest, not the slowest nor the fastest: hence, XF 8mmF3.5. A good decision if you ask me, but you are free to tell us your opinion in the comments.

Fujifilm Launches Instax App for Nintendo Switch, but What We Want is the Long Awaited New X-App Camera Remote

Share

Fujifilm has just launched a new App, but it is not the one we want… unless you are a Nintendo Switch user.

The new App is the INSTAX App “INSTAX mini Link for Nintendo Switch” and it allows you to print directly from your Nitendo Switch.

First a little RANT (no better way to start the year than moaning, right?) ;)

So Fujifilm figured out how to directly print images on Instax via a third party device like the Nintendo Switch, but they still don’t allow us to print our images taken with Fujifilm cameras directly on the Fujifilm Wide Printer (except for the X-S10 as reported here, which can do that since 2021). Now we are in 2023 and still waiting for firmware updates to support that feature on other cameras, too. But I have given up hoping. Fujifilm HQ probably thinks that this is a good way to push X-S10 sales. They sometimes come up with such “brilliant” ideas and are too proud to admit they were wrong.

And what about the App we really want? The new camera remote App?

We have leaked internal Fujifilm documents back in 2022 here, that show that at that time, the new App was planed to be called “X-App”.

But to be clear, FujiRumors never gave a timeline for its release. However, the fact that it is circulating in internal documents can make us cautiously optimistic that they are in a rather advanced stage of development.

So let’s hope the wait won’t be all that long anymore. As soon as I hear anything I will let you know here on FujiRumors.

Oh, right, forgot about it. If you want to know more about the Instax Nintendo Switch App, check out the dedicated Fujifilm page here. And a few videos below.

Top 10 Hottest Topics of 2022: Lost Fujifilm Soul, X-T5 Battery Grip Dispute, No Medium Format Magic & More

Share

When I shared the list of the top 10 articles for 2022, I noticed that some of the articles gathered huge traffic, but are of limited discussion interest.

Take for example the firmware articles. Sure, they always generate traffic, because many people who own the cameras in “firmware need”, go to FujiRumors to check out the details of the firmware and access the download links through our website. But they are not hot topics per se, meaning topics that generate lots of comments and heated debates.

So I thought we should honour also those articles of 2022, that were the most discussed here on FujiRumors. The ones where you guys decided to invest more time than in other articles.
