Fujifilm Instax Wide EVO Coming Soon with Film Rewind Crank to Print Your Film

Share

Fujifilm will soon launch the Instax Wide EVO.

Already the Instax Mini EVO was a beautiful little thing. But according to our sources, this one will be regarded as the best looking Instax camera ever made.

Sure, it’s all subjective, and some might consider this Instax abomination the sexiest Instax alive.

But especially for those, who like a more vintage feel, the new Instax Wide EVO might be quite tempting.

One feature: if you want to print your Instax wide film, you have to turn a film rewind knob on the camera.

And make no mistake: it’s different to the mechanism we already find on the Instax Mini EVO, where there is a dedicated print lever. On the Instax Wide EVO there will be dial and you’ll have to open up the film rewind crank and turn it to print.

TTArtisan AF 23mm F1.8 for Fujifilm X Officially Announced – First Look Reviews

Share

The TTArtisan AF 23mm F1.8 for Fujifilm X has now been officially announced.

I get it, it’s very affordable, nice image quality, quite compact. But a lens without aperture ring is of no interest for me.

Viltrox 35mm, 50mm and 85mm f/1.2 LAB Lenses Coming in April also for Fujifilm X Mount

Share

Almost one year ago, the following lenses showed up on a leaked Viltrox roadmap and that you can still find for example at the French website phototrend:

  • Viltrox 35mm f/1.2 LAB for Fujifilm X
  • Viltrox 50mm f/1.2 LAB for Fujifilm X
  • Viltrox 85mm f/1.2 LAB for Fujifilm X

Well, now the Chinese account Camerabeta said at the Weibo platform here, Viltrox will launch those lenses in April also for Fujifilm X mount.

As we reported a few days ago, Viltrox is saying on social media that also the Viltrox 135mmF1.2 LAB will come for Fujifilm X mount.

But Viltrox has been so far very confused and has released contradicting statements. So I guess all we can do is to wait and see if in April we’ll really get the first LAB X mount lenses.

The full rumor below (google translated).

The new members of the LAB series are coming, namely: Viltrox 35mm f/1.2 L AB, Viltrox 50mm f/1.2 LAB and Viltrox 85mm f/1.2 LAB will all launch Fujifilm X, Nikon Z, and Sony E card ports, and are expected in April Appeared during the NAB exhibition.

LEAKED: First Image of TTArtisan AF 23mmF1.8 for Fujifilm X

Share

This is the first image of the TTArtisan AF 23mm f/1.8 coming next for Fujifilm X mount.

Now, a more compact 23mm lens is definitely high on the Fujifilm X shooter wishlist.

In fact, it is the most wished lens by Fujifilm X shooters, according to a massive survey we launched last year.

But I think most of the people, who voted for the compact XF23mm lens would only really grab one, if it had an aperture ring.

So while the TTartisan AF 23mm f/1.8 is a welcome addition and will definitely be priced very gently, if it follows the pattern of its siblings (the 35 and 56 /1.8), I believe many fellow X shooter will pass on this one just because it does not have an aperture ring (I certainly will not buy it).

But the world is beautiful because everybody is different and has different preferences. So if no aperture ring is not a deal breaker for you, then maybe the TTartisan 23mm f/1.8 might intrigue you.

For me, the perfect XF23mm would look like the fan-made XF23mmF2 rendering we shared in this article (and you can see below).

In fact, let’s see which one you’d prefer. Feel free to vote the survey below.

As far as compact 23mm lenses goes, I prefer the...

1934 Fujifilm Logo Stickers, Hot Shoes and Shutter Buttons

Share

When Fujifilm launched the X100VI, they also offered a limited edition X100VI at a premium price.

Yep, that version that later on some people tried to resell on eBay for a humble 18,000 Dollar.

The camera was basically identical to the regular X100VI, except for the fact that there were only 1934 units made and each got its unique number printed next to the hot shoe (plus freebies like a strap, etc).

Besides the unique numbering, the only way to distinguish the classic X100VI from the limited number one, is the special original Fujifilm logo engraved on the camera and on the lens cap.

Well, if you like the idea of having the old Fujifilm logo on your camera, you don’t really have to buy an overpriced second hand limited edition X100VI.

In fact, there are plenty of ultra-affordable stickers and hot shoes. So here are a few options.

Most of them are made by MakeAndModifyDesigns*, who writes “These are not printed paper stickers: these are the original 1934 Fujifilm logo laser engraved from a brushed silver foil normally used for industrial applications. Water proof, extremely durable, and precision cut to fit the X100V lens cap”

*FujiRumors has no connection with MakeAndModifyDesigns. They did not contact me asking to be featured nor is FR affiliated with them. I just know about them because a member of the X100 Facebook group shared it in the group. If anybody of you has one of these accessories already, feel free to drop your impressions in the comments below.
